has discovered that half Of her "~too-too

black marked with gray. Silver fox is
all the rage. and the swift, with it's white
tipped black beauty, will come IN handy
for the woman who must have something

fox is always the mode. The brush invar-

no denying its beauty. You may have an

many OF the rich new tints in velvet are
splendid in combination with fur. Tnats
why the hats which combine these two
choice ideas are SO chic.

Some of the new skirts are fastened
directly in front with a row Of trimming.
"A huntsman's green cloth has the skirt
fastened up the front with a row of
cloth buttons; between the buttons are
strips of black braid embroidery, these
growing longer toward the bottom of the
skirt. AS the strips extend only out from
one side of the closing the front of the
skirt does not appear to be trimmed in
Tie middle. The jacket Is a bolero, with
pointed fronts that fail below the waist
line. and this is closed in the same way
as the skirt. At the top and bottom of
the sleeve is Ornamental braiding. This
costume is kept in one color-the hunts
mans green.
Shingles small and large are most ex-
tensively used. One sees many little
waistcoats made in this way. with some
times the jacket ~strapping over the
shingles. Again, shingles seem 10 be the
almost universal fashion for yokes. De-
cidedIy neat is. an underskirt arranged
in shingles that show under the scarlet
edge of a long tunic. A pretty example
of this Is a dark green wool, with fine
red cords running through it. The un-
derskirt Is a dark red cloth laid in
shingles; the tunic OF the fancy wool
is cut in deep scallops and finished by
q green silk cord. The bodice opens to
show a bodice OF the red cloth laid in
vertical Singles. About the shoulders
are triple collars of the wool cut In
points or finished with the cord.
Piping IS another form Of trimming that
promises to be much used the coming
season. A gown may be made with from
three to half a dozen jacket pieces, one
over another, and all piped with some
contrasting color; and the tuIlc may be
finished with several shaped folds piped
in the same way. A black and white
checked wool is made in this way and is
piped with bright blue. This makes an
effective costume for country autumn
wear.
a pretty dress for afternoon wear IS a
gray cashmere embroidered with silver
and trimmed With a touch of red. The
skirt Is made with an embroidered yoke,
to which the circular folds are hung. An
embroidered gray mousseiine de soie,
mounted over red silk, makes a blouse;
over his is a bolero cut out about the
shoulders and slashed in points. This is
