boas, muffs and trimmings Of various
sorts. Blue fox is also fashionable for
the same purpose. and both white and
black fox are very much worn. Caracal,
beautifully soft and creamy white, is
one of thesnovelties in fur this season.
1t is very rare and charming, as things
not easily obtained usually are, and
it is made into little cape collarettes,
with a finish of sable around the neck,
and used in combination with black
caracal. Ermine is still a fashionable
fur, in moderation, Of course, since 1t
is too dressy to wear and too con-
spicuous when it comprises the entire
garment, but it appears very often in
evening wraps and fur vests, collars
and facings on velvet and fur gar
ments. One of the new seal coats shown
in the first Illustration has an ermine
vest prettily coverd with a cream lace
cravat, and cream lace frills fall from
the upper edge of the cuffs.
The most popular sealskin coats this
season are short, moderately full
around the bottom, close-fitting in the
back and loose and double-b breasted in
front, with deep revers and q high
rolling collar. Some of these little
Jackets have three immense tortoise
shell buttons down either side, while
others are cut single breasted, par

usual cords and small olive buttons of

seal. Coats of seal with double collar
and revers, the upper ones being of
chlnchilFa or sable, are made up by the
1urrlers to keep pace with the seasons
craze for combinations, but nothing
unless it is sable, can add very much
to the beauty of handsome seal. The
empire coat, too, is shown in seal
with Persian lamb yoke, collar and
cuffs, and then there is another Jacket
with a pouch front, made by gathering
up straight piece of fur at the neck
and waist as if it were silk The effect
is novel, to say the least. This front
is made up of the seal or Persian lamb.
and with the former the edge of the
coat is finished with sable tails.
The good old days when a sealskin
sacque held its own in style for years
without any alteration have passed.
and each successive season brings
almost as distinct changes in furs as
it does in gowns. The coat which is
such delight one season is either a
thorn in ones pride the next or a
source of great expense to bring it I'D
to date. Persian lamb in all it's var
ious degrees of MORE and curled eff
ects, from the smallest lamb killed be-
fore it is born to the older and more
durable skins, is in high favor this
season. The MORE Persian which is
recommended as fairly durable is the
skin of the lamb soon after it is born.
and the curing gives 1T the watered
finish so desirable just at present The
tiniest skins are glossy and pretty to
look. at, but very expensive, and there
is very. little wear in them for any
garment which has any strain on it.
They are, however very effective for
capes collarettes, and all sorts Of fancy
neckwear, and very useful for dress
trimmings, since the skin is so soft and
pliable that it can be managed as if it
were cloth. The fur called broad tail
which has such a prominent place on
the list of fashionable furs, is also the
skin of the unborn lamb of greater age
and entire coats are sometimes made
of this, although the furriers do not
recommend it for extended service.
Black chiffon. velvet, and jet are
combined with Persian lamb, and one
pretty little cape has four-inch frill

we'll, beyond anything VIZ have ever
known before. There are imitation
sealskin, chinchilla and a fur called
mouf1on, which is really plain sheep
skin of some kind not at all costly, in
addition to all the other cheap furs,
but it is the genuine article that gives
the wearer the appearance Of wealth
and luxury of living so gratifying to
her pride.
Despite the depression in trade, So BILE,
the most expensive of all furs. is he
most sought after, and leading turner's
are selling more sable garments, at
prices anywhere between $1,000 and
SIS, 900. than cheaper varieties. The skins
cost from $25 to $3.50 apiece, and are
considered a good investment by those
who can afford to own them at all, as
they never wear out or go out Of style.
Sable is undyed, unplucked fur, and is
handed down with the family jewels
from one generation to another, in
creasing rather than lessening in value.
1t is we'll known fact that the fur
is controlled by royalty, and that the
very finest skins never leave Russia,
but money can do almost anything,
and those which are choice find their
way to this country in sufficient num-
bers to supply the demand. Sable is
used in combination with seal and Per-
sian lamb, and with velvet, satin rib
bon, lace and feathers in collarettes
and small capes, and one little confec-
ton Of this sort costs the small sum
of 81, 100. Four skins, even at the high
est price, do not make q very extern

twenty-five inches long from the head
to the end Of the tail. Sable tails are
used for an edging on the front revers,
collar and cuffs of sealskin Jackets, and
they decorate the new nluffs and boas
in great profusion. A short round cape
of sable fitting the shoulders and hang
ing in flutes on the edge is made fuller
by q frill of sable gathered on all
around. 1t is lined with brocaded cream
satin and is altogether a very elegant
little wrap. Among the new combina-
lions Of sable and velvet is an empire
coat Of black velvet with a sable yoke
collar and cuffs on the bishop sleeves.
The empire coat is the loose one with
two box plaits back and front, falling
from the yoke, so much worn this sea-
son, and the effect Is very striking and
stylish on tall, slender woman, but
rather disastrous to any other style of
figure Entire coats of sable are the
rare exception among fur garments, as
the short, close furs like seal and Per-
elan lamb, are so much more desirable
for that purpose; so capes of various
lengths, corresponding with the length
of the purse, are the prevailing style
Of sable wraps, and these same capes
are liable to appear again in perfect
condition at the furriers fifteen, TWEEN
ty or fifty years hence, to be made over
in the approved style OF the day. One

with a high rolling collar, is lined with

neck at the back, while numerous tails

The keenness of this observation upon
womankind struck me forcibly. For isn't it
true to the letter? In her aparlor even the
careless housewife will hang her pictures
upon the wall and bring out her handsom-
est chairs. Try, the phrase goes, to put
her best foot foremost generally.

POsIEs TO BE CARRIED.
Dame Fashion Has Declared I'm
Favor of q New Rose

Dame Fashion Has Declared In
Favor of New Rose.
Now that society has begun to dance,
attend the opera, and regale itself with
theater parties and dinners galore,
says writer in the New York Journal,
flowers will occupy not little of their
attention.
In the social world the fashions in
flowers must be observed just as care
fully as the fashions in gowns. If a
rose is out of fashion it must be
stunned, no matter what it's fragrance
or it's beauty Of coloring. Only the
+ fashionable flowers receive the smiles
of society.
The newest idea in opera bouquets,
whether for maid or matron, is to have
them made of flowers matching in col
or the gown with which they are car
ried.
They are tied with broad sashes of
watered ribbon. Satin ribbons are no
longer considered the proper thing.
With a deep red gown jacqueminot
roses are carried, with a pink frock
La France roses, and huge punches Of
violets with both violet and mauye
costumes. The sash ribbons must al
ways match in color the flowers around
which they are tied This produces a.
beautiful harmony Of color.
There is a new rose in town, and It
bids fair to rival all its predecessors.
1t bears the name Of no less person
age than ex-President Carnot. 1t Is a.
rose Of exquisitely delicate coloring,
and it's petals shade from pink into
salmon. With the exception of the
queenly American Beauty it stands
straighter than any other rose. The
fact that it's stem is large and free
from thorns is much in it's favor.
But there is no rose in the land which
tons of the society woman. It's color
ing, its fragrance, its refinement give it
the first place Of honor. Then the fact
that a bunch Of violets may be worn
on almost any occasion and not be out
of place is an advantage which it has
over many other flowers. Violets
should always be worn so that their
stems are covered. This may be done
by lace frill or the lapel of the coat.
Violets for the opera cost from So to
$40 a bunch, for evening wear from
So to SIS, but for 81 bunch can be

the bottom, inside the collar, and scarf
ends fall from the neck. Another cape
has two box plaits in the back and an
inch-wide band of jet on the edge, with
additional chiffon frills down the front
Jackets of Persian lamb, with a pouch
front of royal purple velvet finished at
the neck and waist with narrow jet
bands, are seen among the novelties
Sable is combined with Persian lamb in
capes and coats, which are made in
f1nitely more becoming by lining the
collar with sable in such a way that it
rolls over the edge, taking away the
black effect around the face Broad

without any outside wrap. They turn

lace or colored velvet. Epaulettes Of
the fur are pretty finish for the
sleeves.
Grebe is revived again, and it has
much to recommend it, since it is not
expensive and not affected by rain. 1t
Is used for boas and tippets Of various
kinds, and for the collar and wide band
on the edge Of a small velvet or seal
cape like the cut. Fashion is very lib
eral this year in her use of fur as a
dress trimming, and nothing can be
more appropriate on a winter gown,
as it gives the effect of warmth even
though II Is distributed In SuCh way
that 1T does not add any. Beaver fur
trims the jacket and collar of the first
gown of brown cloth, and bows of
brown satin ribbon finish the close
sleeves at the top. Chinchilla decorates
the second dress, with rows of black
velvet ribbon between the bands on the
skirt, on the bolero jacket in a conven-
tional design, and around the sleeves.
Fur edges the jacket and waist, and
the vest is Of chene basketwork silk
Another gown of green cloth with a
long coat Is also trimmed with chin
chilla~ Black caracal embroidered with
an applique Of green satin and jet is
very effective for a bolero jacket on a
dark green cloth gown.

wear in the street.
Chrysanthemums are not so fashion
able this season as they have been
other years. Though effective for dec
orative purposes, they are too conspic-
uous for street or evening wear
Almost as much care Is expended on
the flowers are sent this season as on
the flowers themselves. The very latest
box for flowers is "a French paper box
in faint color and stamped with a
flower design. The flowers which deco
rate the box are frequently as large as
the real ones beneath the cover To
add to their beauty these boxes are
tied with broad ribbons
Boutonnieres are growing larger. The
newest is formed of three white carna-
lions with two or three violets in the
center.

What Chicago Does.

cago free day and night schools for the enl-
ployes are maintained, with competent teach
ers and all the modern accessories of first
class schoolroom. In Milwaukee there is a
similar institution In connection with one Of
reading room are also provided. Both schools
were established in the face of the protests
of those who said the advantages would never
be utilized, but both triumphed from the OUT
set, and are now being initiated by large
New York house.

too cold hard polished wood may be substi-
tuted. Or an ordinary wood may be covered
with oilcloth. With any of these floors
few rugs will, of course, be required. A few
small cheap ones would do for the purpose
where the income is limited. The cotton
rugs of Japanese pattern are an excellent
thing where small expenditure IL an object.

FRILLs of FASHION.


The difference between last seasons skirts
and those of the latest models is more
noticeable in the trimmings than in the
shapes; yet there is much less fullness be-
tween the extreme of fashion then and now.
Tucks bands of velvet, braids, ribbon ruches,
and founces,. decorate the new skirt in various
ways, but the attempt to bring draped skirts
into favor has not yet met much success.
All the new figured silks have a MORE
ground, with distinct patterns in satin, which
have a raised brocaded effect almost like
embroidery. Broche silks, too, are very fash
ionable for wraps of various kinds and they
are either all silk, or silk with velvet figures,
or silk and wool mixed, the last being especi-
ally recommended for evening cloaks.
Silk petticoats to match the gown or in a
lighter shade of the same color, are the latest
fancy and the usual Spanish hounce trimmed
with two or more ruf1es is set up on the
skirt which Is cut quite full underneath,
and lifted like the dress skirt around the hips.
Narrow rufHes are added to this, and feather
bones are set in across the back to make it
stand out.
An ornamental ruff for evening wear Is
made Of green taffeta ribbon, or any other
pale color, edged with narrow black velvet,
and fulled in with black chiffon. Cascade
ends of chiffon knotted half way with ribbon
fall down the front. Three shades of rather
broad ribbon fulled in together with ends of
cream lace make very pretty and inexpensive
rufus.
Tam O'Shanter hats trimmed with velvet
roses and ostrich tips are among the stylish
and becoming shapes.
The variety in decoration on the bodces of
cloth gowns as an example of the dressmak-
ers ingenuity. Much attention is bestowed
on high collars, which in various ways are
made to droop over the band, giving very
distinguished air to an ordinary gown. Boil
eros modelled after the short capes of the
period Ct Henri II. are very novel and pretty
with box plat from the shoulder down on

buttons violet vichna cloth made in this

two plated silk frills down the front, the
little jacket of cloth being trimmed with
loops of black ribbon and white pearl but
tons.
