taSSel. Ine particular erect OF THIS IS
found in the arrangement of the tails
of the ermine Ermine tails are slim
and white next the body with jet black
tips. These tails are SO placed that
they form regular set figures on the
pure white, and the effect is very pleas
ing. Two tassels are put on the front
near the neck, fastening invisibly
A wide stole shape has the upper
portion of ermine and the rest of fine
sable. the ends being pointed, but not
otherwise ornamented Another one
has the cape high in the back of the
neck, but open in front, and the tabs
are rounded. There is an inset of err.
mine across the shoulders. and the
rounded portion of the tabs is of err
mine. The muff to carry with this is. a
rich affair, with the sable cut in notch
es on the upper part and the ermine be-
low. There are fancy breloques at the
top of the muff.
Chinchilla is used for many muffs
and stole and other shaped collars.
Cunning little four-in-hand collars
made of this fur and also of seal and
Of lamb are worn by the smart set and
are undeniably fetching. Deep stole
collars of chinchilla sometimes have
big balls covered with fur at the ends,
while others are quite untrimmed. It
is like painting the lily and Furnishing
the sunbeams to add anything to this
exceedingly pretty fur. Most coats and
jackets have storm collars and wide
revers of some deeper fur, for it is only
the close furs that are used to make
the coats. But few of the neck pieces
have storm collars at all. did see one
Jet black fur cape which came to a
point in front, and this had fiat er
mine collar scailoped and with short
tabs over it, and this was SO arranged
that the. ermine portion could be raised
to form such protection rs desired
Many of these capes narrow in at the
waist and spread widely above and
below.
There are many less exclusive and
less expensive small furs. They are al
most a necessity to everyday require
ments. The neat and pretty walking
suits for this season of the year are
made Of cloth. cheviot, zibeline and ne
end Of other woolens, besides The firm
favorite. yelutina. They need but the
presence of a small fur neck piece te
look quite warm and wintry enough
even to go skating in
A rich and heavy granite suiting cos
tune in the very dark brown SO liked
just now has she skirt trimmed richly
with black hercules braid and the short
box coat done in the same way. Braid
is now considered the best of all dress
trimming It is made in 50 many
STYLES and materials that it is adapted
to everything froin Batiste to velvet
Even some fur garments are trimmed
withft
SO this suit is trimmed with the.
braid in the manner shown in the illus
tration, and a handsome suit it makes
With 1t a small flat fur piece IS Worn
II may be OF any OF the furs with q
tinge Of brown. but tile handsomest for
tits purpose is tie Alaska sable. which
seems TO lend Itself TO every color and
fights with none. A small round mutf
is made to match this. but il you want
to lie right in the swim you should
get your stoutest relative to sit on your
huff all day. The fiat ones are the lat
est. hut not so large as those Of the
days Of 1880. after which we seem now
to lie casting wistfui eyes SO far as
fashion 10 concerned
