The very smart moieskin fur ap-
pears IN coats for which many hun
dreds Of the skins Of the little erea-
lures are necessary. each skin being
little larger than the palm OF your
hand. The Joining Of the skins shows
IN q little ridge. which n formed
with beautiful nicely into n sort Of
Eigxag design. These wraps have deep.
sringed collars. wide sleeves. with
handsome friils of rich iaces and lin
ines and facings OF costly silk and en-
broideries. and cost anywhere from
$500 90 81 f.00o-whieh seems a goodly
Fum for a coat that may go out Of
fashion some dag. II Is not the Amer.
lean mole which has attained TO all
this grandeur. but a little creature
that frisks among the purple heather

considered the proper thing. and In
stead Of pin dots. small moons as
large a. n quarter Of a dollar are not
as all out Of the way. The very latest
veil Il the accordion-plaited affair.
Naich hangs In a curtain over the
face and IL more Of a mask than q
beautiner. The cloud veil In q trine
thinner and the shades are from deep
tn pale.
