The enc great objection TO fur coat
Apf any kind is that when onee put on at
\ he beginning of the winter it is not a
cry safe thing to do to change back to
cloth jacket, saving, of course, for
kaose sudden times Of warm weather
which come now and then even durlns
|the most severely cold season. Many OF
.the hanfssomest receptions gowns this
1sear have made to wear with them either
short or long fur coats Of sable, ermme,
(, strakhan or earacul. Whether a fur
boat is cut long or on the Eton or bolero
bnodel. il is bound to have more warmth

The majority of skirts particularly the
walking skirts-are still eIaborately
pleated. but there are some few smart
models made with a large number OF
,gores cut so as to give extra width at
&he hem. One of the prettiest skirts
sseen this autumn is laid about the hips
lin one-inch box plaits. which. opened out,
hang gracefully and with good flare.
There are an indefinite number of these
models. all moro Or less on the same orr
der Some are made with very marrow
bcx plaits arranged "a groups Of three
and four. while wide tuckS are also used
in this same way In clusters Of two and
three at time.
FIouncee are not seen. but pretty
skirts are to be had trimmed with two or
three wide fat folds Of the cloth added
below the knees. while about the hips
the material is laid in inverted plaits
stitched down for some five or six. inches
and then left loose.
Never before were so many pretty
plaids TO be had. and for a separate skirt
dark plaid is excellent. Particularly
with a black coat of either astrakhan or
caraeuE plaid is bright, but not too con-
spicuous. Small checks in blue and
green with an indefinite line of red run
sning through the pattern are pretty
2while there are numherless other plaids
9and checks which. if not too striking. are
|all smart.
