| tons, it is safe to say that the feature
of every wrap is its facade. Your coat
or your cape may be severe in its sim
! plicity, but over the bust all the elab-
Grafton of your toilet must be concen-
| trated. Revers in the form of ruffies
graduating small TO the waist line
gathered quite full and the edges corded
and wired, turn back like strange wings
upon the bust 10 reveal a cataract of
frillS and ribbon loops, fur tails and
ostrich tips falling from chin to hip
line, and the more fluffy and pouter
pigeOn-like the vest is the more salts
flying the effect on the wearer and her
feminine observers.
Women who cannot quite trust their
appearance TO the tender mercies of a
round shawl cape, have found solace in
the cape that is cut in extremely long
points at back and front. Three points
is the usual shape, two in front and one
behind, slopederom the level of 1.-THE ell
bows down. SPRAYING all over the
faWn, gray, black and brown breadths
of these capeS are wondrOus braids
edged with tiny lines of fur and with a
finish of gilt gimp beyond the fur. Then
there is a smart velvet braid. made al
most rigid with embroidery of gold
thread and beads, steel or jet.
NOVELTIES FOR DECEMBER.
1t is desirable to recapitulate at in
tervals the lists of dress goods that
menace the dress-loving woman with
temptation on every hand, chiefly be-
cause reinfOrcements of novelties are
arriving daily and will continue to pour
in until December. First item of fresh
Importance concerns the foulard serge
that is beautiful beyond the capacity of
any ordinary vocabulary, and then
come the creped cloths. silks warranted
and proven uncrushable, and finally the
spotted goods. You may object or open
~ war against spots, but you might as
well try TO crush out the sunshine or
forbid the flower to bloom. Spots are
regnant and have broken forth every
where. Silks, velvets, satins, cloths
liannels, chiffons, even bridal wells are
spotted. Not all spots. are round, how
ever; to alleviate any danger of monot-
ony we have birds eye or oval spots
and pastille spots, these last raised
from the surface, sometimes in the
form of tiny cones.
To say the last word as to color is to
enumerate royal blue, cress green and
fuchsia red as riValing one another. 4
perfectly daring and quite unmistak-
able brick-dust red. toned with black
braidings, is eriumphantly worn by
blonde women, but for women of all
tints blue stiH CALAMITY holds their
hearts. About four years ago, from the
obscurity of navy blue, arose a whole
flock of tender becoming azure tinged
tones and TO put off blue seems to be
impossible. Cornnower, turquoise, gen
tian, Abbess, Russian violet and royal
are some of the blues that made up, in
cloth. silk velvet and flowers, a most
attractive show window in New York
and the women all buzZed about the
corner, where a perfectly new and en-
tirely lovely shade, named Marie Louise
blue. was exhibited.
SMART SKATING COSTUMES.
All these gay colors of cloth make a
iorid and not ineffective show on the
ponds and in the Kinks. where the whirr
of steel on ice rises on the frosty air.
