TO the bonuet's rear alongside the other
end, forming a part Of the head gear or
namentat!on. BY this device the bonnet IS
held on suugly ard to ninety-nine out OF
hundred women the straight band under
the chin Is rar more becoming than the
ends knotted 20 a fun pon pom under one
ear.
A last piquant lttle touch to this coquet-
tish top knot is a big, brighty-jewecd
breach fastened in the smoothly drawn
string a little 10 one side and some women,
who affect many fine expressions of daint-
iness, wilI pin one very sweet flower on the
tulle scarf that anchors a wide hat so Sc
curely.
Genuine Novelties.
There Is more genuine novelty in the
wraps of cloth and fur designed for the
autumn clothes market than in either the
gowns or hats that are already casting
their shadows before them. None Of the
fashiona bic new comers at the furriers or
cloak makers are braided. The whole
creed Of decoration Is cloth stitched on
cloth and fur on esoth. Not one Of tie new
coats or capes make the slightest pretense
of fitting the figure. What the English
call box and what the French volante
shape wraps are being pushed for popular
ity most vigorously by the manufacturers
and the chances are just even whether this
style so frequently and emphauca!ly re-
accepted.
Clumsily large capes Of the same type as
were worn last winter are eligible for use
in the coming season and the hand5omest
are made of thick sleek surfaced dark
cloth with broad borders of grey ana
brown fur and finished by tab Kaiser col
lars. Another mode show a cape with long
Kersey skirts TO the hem of the dress and
then over this 10 the hip falls another
cape of fur and It is perfectly patent that
the long haired pelts are to be tlrst ~ the
hearts of our country women this year.
Silver fox is the most costly and sumpt-
uous skin, far, far more fashionable tnan
seal or sable, and now, by some secret
means, the furrieTs are bringing out long
haired black furs mottled in tiny white
specks. This is called Labrador fox and
the fur boas are minus heads and tails and
are shaped exactly like those Of feathers
and silk muslin ruches that we have worn
all summer. That is, from great girth at
the back of the head a cub bear or Cana
dian sable boar tapers to slender points at
the waist line, and few run longer than
this and ala are meant to be held together
with ornamental pins at throat and belt
Every handsome fur-trimmed cape is
fastened at the collar in front by an orna-
mental clasp and the jewellers select, bril-
liant agatos, fun of red and white tre,
polish them highly and sink them In broad
rims of gold or silver. Inc Whole pm Is
about the size of a dessert spoons bowl.
IS called tigers eye and catches the cape
together under the chin.
New Cuts for Long Cloaks.
Long cloth coats that might easily be
called ulsters mad made Of broad-cloth,
Vicuna or venetian cloth, are out on the
Chesterfield or Raglan pattern, as those
for men are modelled, their pockets are
ample and the one feminine suggestion is
the TALL up-rolled collar, often lined with
mole's fur that gives the tenderest, most
grateful touch to the face possible, and
the smoked pearl-grey color, of which
forms a soft, becoming background for the
face. The majority of these long coats are
made to fasten with the buttons out of
sight, or one or two very choice cut steel
disks hold the fronts together and twinkle
in the soft deep hair
There Is a pretty fashion coming in of
using buffet-shaped buttons of brass as
trimmings on sleeves and yoSes and the
fronts of cloth suits. These are copies of
the buttons that small boys in livery wear
