Lord Roberts postscript announcing
the loss of the Yeomanry, Battalion

Gen. Botha and most of his men got

from Lord Roberts message, but the

FEMININE FANCIES.
New Motions In Collars, Fichus and
Bodice Enects for Winter
Costumes.

The collars TO many OF the hand
some cloaks that are now worn TO the
theaters are some cause Of anxiety to
their wearers. They are stiffened to
give the proper effect, and being high,
they have TO be adjusted carefully
when the wearer slips the cloak down
from her shoulders as she takes her
seat. A crushed collar is ruined.
A good many pretty gowns are An
ished around the lower edge of the
skirt with fur. They are charming in
effect, but with the long skirts they
have SC much of an additional body
TO catch dust and germs that TO the
practical mind their beauty is some
what diminished. On skating cos
tunes with q short skirt the fur is a.
together attractive, and has q sugges.
ton of warmth about it that is do
lIghtful in n gown for outdoor winter
sports. A gracefully shaped fur yoke
and high collar are also charming In
the skating gowns.
Pretty little bodice effects are seen
in a good many gowns, soft broad
bands of silk drawn tightly around
the waist. with two points in front,
and they are very pretty and a pleas,
ant change from the narrow line OF
stitched silk and velvet that has been

white silk and with a grebe collar, the

brown velvet is charming.
The Gchu effect is to he seen in

around the vest, which ends Mt tho
