Close fitting and basqued coats
are numerous, and in almost every
instance ornamented by fancy waist
coats. Some of the French coats have
leather collars and waistcoats en-
broidered in heavy gold thread, but
cloth or velvet is usually preferred.
-Apropos Of using up odds and
ends, a remnant Of handsome bro
cade, the more old-fashioned the bet
ter, can be utilized in making a waist
coat to wear with the new winter
coats, many of which are open al
most to the waistline. The waist
coats are cut very low in front, and
fasten in double-breasted style with
four handsome buttons. Delicateiy
tinted brocades are perhaps more
fashionable, but any color can be
used. If there Is not enough brocade
for the backs, silk or linen would
answer the purpose. A pretty sug-
gestion for an evening blouse Is to
utilize one Of those large Damascus
shawls that in silken mesh, that can
be bought everywhere. They are
mostly Of black or white, embroider-
ed in gold or silver, and II made in
loose style with plenty Of lace or
chiffon frills, and worn with a white
silk skirt, they are charming.
The woman of ingenuity who has
some pairs of long-wristed gloves
can utilize them in making the pret-
ty kid accessories, so much in vogue.
Beside the pretty crush belts. dotted
here and there with light beads,
there are whole vests for jackets,
made of kid and covered with de-
signs such as are used for braiding,
which are outlined with beads OF
varying sizes. The steel beads with
here and there a red or blue one Of
vest patterns and the soft gray un-
dressed kid or tan-colored kid In the
glazed style makes pretty vests. An
other pretty use for kid this year
is in making shopping and work bags,
or dainty bags for opera glasses.
These may be prettily braided, deco
rated with beads or made handsome
by a design in burnt work.
Princess models stand not only for
elegance, requiring the most beautiful
materials as we'll as the richest, but
they are dreadful failures unless
worn by women with superb figures.
1t is useless to argue Of their success
on any other ground. So true Is this,
that to make them fashionable the
best makers have introduced many
notifications upon the upper part,
where the outlines that were needed
were frequently absent. They are
now made to end like girdles, where
the waist line Is round and fit. If
that is defective a belt Is worn, and
- Although the long coat seems to
be given more attention than any
other just now, the Eton will no
doubt be always with us, and 1t Is
shown in some very pretty effects.
It has one great advantage in that 1t
can be shaped into any figure and
one can make an Eton as warm or
cool as one desires by interlining for
the former and omitting all Innings
save foundation Of light silk for the
latter. 1t Is without the heavy skirts
Of the long coat, which tend to make
the latter cumbersome. Evening
coats are rich beyond the dreams of
avarice and beautiful beyond descrip-
ton. They are made Of the sheerest,
daintiest materials, but so many are
combined upon one design that the
woman Of fashion deludes herself in
to believing that they really have
elements Of comfort. The wraps Of
chiffon, mousseline and lace are the
costliest and most elaborate, but for
less expensive models one might Sc
lect one of the coats developed in soft
chiffon faille, silk crepe or supple,
satin finished silk which can be made
up most luxuriously by trimming
them with laces which come by the
yard in separate patterns to be cut
apart and used a la applique. In
many instances these appliqued laces
are set upon backgrounds Of handsome
silk flowers, which, too. are cut from
Dresden and pompadour silks for the
sake of economy.
With the craze for color schemes
that seems to have taken hold Of the
fashionable world this autumn. colored
leather bags to match the costume are
among the most modish effects of the
moment The later ones are more
than a little larger than their prede-
cessors Of the springtime, and in fact,
some OF them suggest that their

that the bag holds full complement

whose cost runs up to four figures,
and substantial ones at that. And
there are bags of leather, plain and
severe, such as suggest in their out
lines the correct accompaniment for
a severely tailored costume, such as

- The fan as the finishing touch to
the house or evening toilette Is rap
idly becoming quite fad. For quite
a long time the fan was employed
only for theater or dancing use; in the
house it was only the elderly woman or
the invalid who was supposed to re-
quire it's assistance. But as a fasci-
mating accessory It's possibilities are
again to the fore, and the fan as an
alluring charm is being studied by the
girl who is ever seeking to vary her
