A correspondent writing from Paris de-
clares that nine out Of every ten women
automobilists carry their small change
''monnaie"-in a tiny purse attached to the
front of their long boots. Bloomer under
wear lends propriety to the exTacuon OF
the change, but so leveling is this brisk
sport that even the cool and open lifting or
ffounced petticoats for the fishing up OF

discretion.
Chain charms In the shape of tiny gold

feuse in full and dashing auto attire.

While the Fever Lasts.
As long as the fever for the sport lasts,
commercial genius will cater to 1t. and
when it ends the hundred and one trifles
which honored it will end also. Meanwhile,
ordinary people look on one moment in ad-
rniration and the next long for gun and
the privilege of using it. 1t is hard lines to
dodge necessarily for life. and only the
prettiness of the feminine costume and the
grotesque ugliness of the masculine atones
for the outrage.
But to turn 20 the frills and flounces of
femininity. Softer examples in their au-
tumn finery display a strong leaning to-
ward these always delightful details. The
fiounces which ornament the newest OF the
silk and other light material skirts. being
of circular cut. are almost as fiat as folds.
Different widths are put together until
often nearly the whole skirt is covered and
the last fiounce is no more than three inches

The PeIerine Collar

1t appears that the blouse of almost every
frock is finished with the pelerine shaped
collar a yoke of lace or embroidery. A
very pretty biscuit colored linen had an in
serted yoke of coarse ecru embroidery with
raised black spots thereon. Draping the
shoulders in fichu fashion was a scarf laced
into the embroidery, with knotted fringed
ends. The hem of. the skirt was finished
with black veining and the waist was en-
circled by wide band of black taffeta.
