Perhaps there are readers Of these
letters who call me hypercritical, and
other uncomplimentary names, BECAUSE
catch up 50 many of what some peo-
pie think are trlfiing blunders, or err
rors. But don't mind It; and the good
work will still go on, but in a vain
hope OF bringing about a reform in
the careless manner now almost uni
versal of reporting events and rfafnes
In newspapers, magazines and SOCIAL
ed histories. For example, here is a
sample OF reckless. not careless, cor
respondence. An old newspaper man
writes from Atlanta, to a Georgia daily
paper, that "Adjt Gen. Kell has issued
general orders" for the inspection Of
State Troops to begin Jan. 2. And
yet Gen. Kell has been dead for years,
and has had three successors since his
death. - Capt. Jas. r.. Grove. of
Sheffield, Ala, writes to the Montgom-
cry, Ala. Advertiser, (and the Confed.

The other players must raise their

The fun Of the thing is for the town

that all had different sleeves. The
sleeves of the first coat were fiaring
and cut off at the elbow; the second
coat had wide sleeves finished with
frill of fur at the elbow; the third coat
had leg o. mutton sleeves; the fourth
coat had the big puff finished with a
deep cuff at tie wrist and the fifth
pair of sleeves were finished with
row of fur tails around the arm.
You can make over your fur coat by
providing it with a new set of sleeves
for, like your gown, the style of your
coat depends largely upon the style of
the sleeves. Take your old fur sleeves,
cut them off at the elbow and finish
them with a frill of Russian embroid-
cry and you will have something thor
oughly up to date.
Or, if so pleases you, take your fur
sleeves and gather them in at the
wrist and set deep embroidered Per-
sian cuff upon them. You will have
something that is attractive and pref
ty. Or you can use a fur cuff of a
contrasting kind. Two furs are always
in good taste.
The woman who is the owner of a
handsome strip of Persian embroidery
can do great deal this season In
place Of the Persian one can use Rus
sian, Armenian, Turkish or Indian
work. But the strip should be four
inches wide and very long. Take this
strip in hand and use portion of it to
border the wide balloon sleeves Of your
The San Francisco call., 1904-11-13

cloth coat. Now lay band OF it fiat
around the neck, letting it come down
each side of the front. Let similar
strip extend all around the bottom Of
the coat and run strip of 1t up each
side after you have slit it open at the
sides.
Trimming the New Coats.
All the half and three-quarter kimo-
no coats are slit up the sides to allow
for the fullness of the dress skirts.
And the pajama shaped coats are slit
up the sides in the same manner. The
trimming, whatever it may be, runs up
each side of the slit. And frequently
one sees a square of it placed at the
back of the neck One can do a great
deal with a strip of embroidery if one
understands how to use 1t, and one can
transform an old coat into a new one
with iabot of lace, some metal but
tons and pair of embroidered cuffs.
One of the new pajama coats OF
cloth is slit up each side and the slit is
edged with Russian needleworlx, which
is put on in big swirls with a little en-
broidery on each side No matter how
handsome the Oriental needlework it
seems impossible to use 1T unless one
has little handwork to use in connec-
tion with it. Fancy stitching of all
kinds trims the coats which are them
selves trimmed with elegant needle
work imported from the Orient for the
express purpose of making the smart
woman still smarter.
The San Francisco call., 1904-11-13

Whole capes are made of oriental
stuff and are thrown around the shoul-
ders and fastened in front with big
clasp. And little shoulder capes are
made of knife-plaited lace of the stiff
variety upon which are applied Oriental
medallions. So there is little danger
of going astray in using oriental work.
for Dame Fashion has smiled upon it
in such a variety of ways.
Speaking of fur novelties this is what
you see:
Handsome squirrel coats that roll
open, showing vest of delicate en-
broidery.
Heavy sable coats and coats of mink
with lay-down collars of Armenian
needlework and cuffs of the same.
Baby lamb coats with vest of Per
sian embroidery and stock to match.
and deep cuffs of the Persian work.
Exquisite sealskin coatsA buttoned
with leather-covered buttons and
trimmed with leather cuffs and leather
collar. When the coat is unbuttoned
it shows a vest made of embroidered
leather.
One sees beautiful fur coats of all
kinds with embroidered chamois vests,
and one sees handsome squirrel coats
with embroidered chamois facing.
Strange contrasts rule the day in dress.
1t is a fad to, line your fur coat
with satin to match your costume. and
one of the prettiest winter suits to be
found anywhere is made of Persian
lamb trimmed with ermine and lined
The San Francisco call., 1904-11-13

with gun metal satin to be worn over
a gun metal cloth costume. The hat
in this case can be a felt hat the color
of gun metal trimmed with band of
ermine and a white ostrich feather.
which should trail over the back of
the hat
Several pretty features stand out
prominently in the imported coats.
The first is the leather-covered button
and the button covered with velvet.
Green velvet buttons, as big as a silver
quarter, trim a squirrel coat. and a
coat of deerslxin is adorned with big
button molds covered with green
leather. OF course the leather is dyed
to a certain shade and that shade is
usually one that matches the hat. A
little embroidered leather vest of the
same color is an added touch of smart
ness. And one can have leather
trimmed cuffs and gloves stitched with
green to match the vest, the buttons
and the cuff trimmings.
How to Trim With Ribbons.
Several pretty fads of fashion are
very much noted, one being the neat
ness and the multiplicity of the new
ribbon trimmings. One Of the dainti-
est of these shows eight little bows.
called Puritan bows. arranged down
the front Of the waist. They are made
of black satin ribbon and are no bigger
than butterfly bows. They are set
down the front of the waist to conceal
the hooks and eyes.
