NEW 1ORh, Dec. o. HC hi~SAA'
crisp winds of December days are
bringing forth some dainty gowns that
heighten the beauty of milady fash
ionable's radiant cheeks. Soft pretty
browns and green's that require much
color to carry them effectively are
shown in greater variety than ever,
not only in gowns but in wraps.
Satin cheviot is the newest candi-
date for fashionable favor and hand-
some visiting marquise coat is the
design used for it's debut. The coat
reaches almost to the bottom OF the
skirt yet is just far enough above IL u
escape the three quarter length "hich
has fallen somewhat into opilVloli'
Over the side seams and around the
bottom of the coat there is appl1qued
an elegant embroidery done in narrow
brown silk braid. The back is seam
less and cut to curve preceptibly into
the figure. The upper facing of the
fronts is carried out In turquoise blue
broadcloth trimmed with four rows OF
silk braid arranged In groups and al
ternating with large round, fiat. brown
silk buttons. This facing widens at the
neck into a standing collar, but the
collar does not extend above that
which finishes the neck of the boride
beneath.
over the Shoulders there is a deep
applique of the embroidery finished
with a deep brown silk fringe. The
sleeves are loose and large, after the
angel pattern, but are divided and Sc
cured in the center with band of blue
broadcloth trimmed with brown silk
braid and buttons.
The entire coat is built upon foun-
dalton of rich brown satin and the
inner facing is composed of a wide
band of oriental embroidery which con-
trasts smartly with the outer trimming
where the coat is opened
A pretty mid winter wrap is made
on the Elton jacket order, and though
II can be worn Independently. has
skirt to match. Dark hunters green
broadcloth is the material used and the
trimmings are of white silk braid piped
with bands of black velvet.
The skirt is perfectly plain except
for few tucks over the hips to dispose
of the fulness about the waistline.
The Jacket is slashed on either side
of the front leaving tabular center
niece that extends below the girdle of
black silk velvet. The fastening is ef-
feeted at the left side. The braid is

and three tiny black buttons arranged
in groups are placed at effective inter-
walls around the front and back or the
eton and on the sleeves. The shoulder
effect is long and plan. except Tor
circular cap on the top of the sleeves.
This is bound with the piped braid and
also trimmed with buttons. The GUNS
are composed of two bands of green
cloth rounded at the ends and left
open at the back to accommodate linen
undercuffs which are worn separately.
In the center of the bands are strips
of braid and buttons.
The linen undercuffs, by the way,
have grown to be an important part of
the winter wardrobe. The look dainty
and fresh peeping from beneath the
coat sleeves and can be bought in pairs
at prices ranging from seventy-oVe
cents to five dollars. They are made
of crisp sheer materials, such as lawn
organdie and mo sseline and exquisite
ly trimmed. with lace.
Many pretty new waists are shown
but they do not disclose much that is
new except in the way of finishing the
neck. one pretty stock is made per-
fectly plain but has first tiny square
then long incisions in 1t through which
satin ribbon may be run then tied IN

been worn threadbare are lacings ot
chenille cords. The ends of these cords
are finished with tassels of the same
material or with silk fringe, Sometimes
they are just tied in a careless MOI
and held in place with a blouse pin.
All-over lace blouses are dainty and
are given a more substantial appear

The effect is wonderfully confusing

Fashionable women really owe v4t
