diseases are frequently associated with
those of this one in the bodies of pa

There are the most becoming Medicl

Perhaps I should explain that these
novelties consist only of a standing
faring collar OF the chinchilla with a
tie of velvet or contrasting for passing

TO within a few inches of the waist.
They are for wear with tailor-made

ions in furs for the early winter have
certainly been devised, and smartly de-
yised, too, for those who, though they
really love pretty things, are not in a
position to pay extortionate prices tor
them. This reflection has been cause
by the fact that there are SO many d-
