tuu sweep or JupeS WnlCH exceed tne tTOt-
tor lengths and the deep cuffs in the same
shade. forms a square low vest in tucks
and bands. The band bust trimmings are
made in the same way. the two materials
also forming the quaint rufhed under
sleeves. The large hat is of gray felt with
feathers shading from gray to black, and
velvet toned in the same way.
French lady's cloth in a rich shade OF
blue forms the trottoir Dress whose long
vest of white MORE is embroidered with
blue and black. At the back and sides OF
the coat is the short-waisted empire gather
ing: the sleeves are elbow length and the
killed skirt shows the smartness now ex-
acte by fashion for short jupes.
The smart heaGoiece with this costume
displays one of the seasons desirable walk
ing hats.
Still another empire effect is shown by
the third gown, which Is OF dull prune
cloth with an all but invisible stripe. Tiny
tucks fit the coat of this into the figure,
shaded prune braid. with thread of tin
sci. outlining little jacket effect above
this treatment The long vest which Is of
white cloth with neck and front outlin-
ing of the braid beyond a velvet edge, gives
a graceful sweep to the coat, whose sleeves
are three-quarter length with braid-trimmed
cuffs. The plain skirt has the under dust
trimming of braid and velvet described.
An English walking hat of prune-colored
felt and velvet with odd white plume of
.doctored' paradise tops this smart toilet
appropriately.
Indispensable.
OF course. IL one cannot afford fur
coat a warm coat-gown is indispensable;
for unless 1t Is of fur. the odd coat will
have little place in fashions catalogue of
elegancies. Jackets of skins namable and
otherwise-for strange oelts are turned out
by mans art-are seen without number. de-
lightful little matching toques going with
some, and others displa wing a mum as we'll,
gay with some of the coat trimmings. One
oddly is made of mink in such way as
to show off the stripes ornamentally,
these going over the fronts and back of the
garment in q smart bias, and then border
ing the coat all round in a straight line.
Short models preferred for the FUR
jackets. which must be jaunty in line to on
set the clumsiness of the animal skin. The
models range from the waist-length pony
STYLES to bo!eros above the belt: while any
skin sufficiently pliable to be fashioned into
q blouse will have the comfort OF great
snugness for deep belts hold these Into the
figure all round. Embroidered cloth In rich
ccIors-such as touch of deep blue or
brown, gray or yellow or green or coral
with black-is a rewardfng garnlture.
modicum Of velvet and glistening black
braid will also be used. while jewefed but
tons of fabulous bigness and splendor Will
set off a smart little cravat or the fronts IN
some way. The very melanges OF skins en-
ployed are in themselves ornamental, for
the most widely differing pelts will be put

trimmed with ermine, charming little
ermine and mink hat going with this. With
chinchila coats gray chiffon furnishings
are in keeping. while there may be vest
with tinsel embroideries carrying out the
same silvery scheme. A few smart little
Etons of seal. made gay with cloth edges,
braids, fine buttons and lace cravats. sug
gest charming ways of doing over old
sealskn coats. For like Persian lamb good
seal may be redyed and made over to al
most its last hour. and the more contrast of
trimming the better the effect of this
rather commonplace fur.
In Persian Lamb.
Little Jackets of Persian or baby lamb are
very useful purchases. for black goes with
everything, and the unborn qualities of this
skin have a special vogue for elegance.
The skin of the grown animal Is more du-
ra BILE. the skin is easily matched and its
wearing qualities endless. Two little coats
of Persian and baby lamb. in new and
smart styles, are shown by the weeks cuts
a deep green cloth with gold and black
braid forming the trimming of the blouse
one.
