FASHION LETTER.

fit takes April showers to bring May
flowers, it is equally true that it re-
quires December snow to produce mi
ladi's furs. And the latter, from q
sartorial viewpoint. lie much more i'm
portant sequence.
There have. bcep moments of awful
doubt during the recent balmy season
whether there would be any December
snow. 1t seemed as il December was
all out of the white particles with which
the town should be powdered to make
an appropriate miee-en-scene Of feminine
loneliness clothed in furs.
The well-gowned woman grows wiser
every day.
She knows perfectly that nothing 10
more incongruous or more unbecoming
than fuss-no matter how splendid
unless they match the Fahrenheit scale.
This cold wave may not appeal to the
poor, who must not expect to have
everything their own way, but it is just
what the women who have invested
hundreds and even thousands Of dol
lars in winter fure have been waiting
for. And 1t has come just at the right
time, too. A little later. and some OF
them might have grown over-impatient,
and, rather than have their splendid
furs waste their beauty in the cedar
closet. might have dehed good taste
fatal error.-and worn them in the very
face OF old Sol rampant.
The most regal fur creation l have
seen was made in Paris. l saw it at
the furrier's. where it had been sent for
alterations. 1t was such a gorgeous
affair ives naturally curious to know
to whom it belonged. but the furrier

own fur and without standing collar,
and wearing boas of contrasting fur, is
one of the features of the fur season.
Mrs. DUPONT Coudert lie wearing one Of
these new coats, from Callot Soeurs, il l
have not forgotten. 1t is in sable, cut
like bolero with belt. 1t has for its
collar a lace affair Of pointed irish GRO
Chef lace. and over this Mrs. Coudert
wears a silver fox boa.
Another fur novelty are short coats
done all in chinchilla, with q bit Of
black velvet let in at the back Of the
collar and below the elbow of the Pa
quin sleeve. Mrs. Rita" Stokes is
wearing one of the smartest of these
chinchilla coats, and with it she wears
fat toque Of chinchills trimmed meagre-
ly with black velvet ribbon.
A great many long. loose coats of
breitschwanz are worn. Apparently.
these coats may be any length and yet
be smart, for have seen them cut to
reach the hips, to the knee, below the
knee. or all the way to the ground.
The sable capes produced by the cold
wave seem as numerous as the sands at
the seashore. and their prevalence would
give the impression they are as easily

better.
1t is hard to say who has the hand

feeling for ideal sculpture, as it is called.
confess l am not quite sure that 1
know what "ideal sculpture" means. 1t
cannot mean imaginative sculpture,
because this is exactly what the IN
stitute sculpture, which he thinks in
sipld, is not. And ths Institute sculp-
ture is called ideal and Robins real
istic. Rodin is, it is true, an uncom-
promising realist, but to find lack of
ideality in this fact is to betray mental
confusion. What exactly do We mean
by the ideal element in a work of art
when we speak strictly? We mean the
element in virtue OF which it cores
ponds closely and cordially to the image
or idea created or awakened by it in our
own mind. In art ''the ideal' isn't
merely what we'd like but don't have.
1t is as present in still-life by Vol
Ion or Chardin as IN a composition by
Puvis de Chavannes. Reality is Just as
competent to furnish it as insubstanti-
atty is-it is as subject to the actual
vision as to the dream; and as much the
material of the imagination as are GER
tain imaginings. 1t is beyond the reach
of the photograph. because the photo
graph gives US the aspect of the object
and does not establish relations with
our idea Of (which is not to say. by
the way, that good photograph is not
often an exceedingly superior thing,
though probably because the camera is
handled by an artist like brush or a
modelling tool.
A distinction less liable to confusion.
1 think, than that usually made be-
tween the real and the ideal, would be
that between the concrete and the alb.
stract. Probably what is meant by
ideal sculpture is abstract sculpture

ness In the back. To the knee it is the
very finest quality OF breitschwanz, soft
and pliable as Liberty satin; from the
knee to the ground is flounce formed
of picked silver fox skins. 1t is quite
tight fitting, with short position back

in a black satin belt some two inches
wide, which encirclee the waist, and is
worn over the position tails. The COL

is tight fitting and quite simple. 1t ex-
tends some three inches below the waist
line all around. The revers, collar and
cuffs of Mrs. Harriman's coat are in

wears big sable turban.

combination that seems most popular.

in the breitschwanz. and Mrs.
