EVER CHANGING STYLES.
BY SOPHIA eEANERET.

London, Oct. 20.-Charrning is the
afternoon frock for town wear made Of
mulberry cloth, with fascinating little
buttons in a lighter shade of velvet a
band of the same forming the hem of
the skirt. with a narrow edging of
mink. Very wonderful is the hat sur
mounting this costume; it is a mixture
of mink and shaded, made-up quilts.
caught with a noeud of velvet and a
dull gold buckle. 1t should be remem-
bered that the hat pin of enormous d.
mansions plays very important part
in headgear.
A beautiful example Of one of the
new sacs in chinchilla is seen. with a
trimming of ermine and a delightful
little chemisette of gold and turquoise
embroidery. This is lined with an old
world brocade.
The becoming little walking costume
often seen is in striped black and white
tweed, with a shaped waistcoat con-
sisting of white embroidered linen and
black velvet. This is made with rather
fuller sleeves, with a becoming square
effect on the shoulder, turned back
with neat cuffs of the velvet, and a
long graceful skirt which just touches
the ground. With the exception of the
are of this full length; not, perhaps, a
happy fashion for the winter, but 1t is
a fact, and must therefore be chroni-
cled.
Until the weather becomes really
Arctic we shall not hear much about
the sable and sealskin NANTES that en-
velop the form from throat to feet, but
for lightweight garments fur is being
worn on chilly days. For the promo
made coat almost any fur we can mus
ter can be turned to account, but the
specially luxurious pelts, such as sable,
will be the most desirable, and black
fox is promised a triumph. White kar-
akul is at the moment very desirable
purchase, for it does not look too heavy
for late September, and lends itself to
the frivolity of ribbon trimmings, AND
even of ribbon run through and through
IL, to fit ii to the waist or to give the
figure that Directoire air now so much
admired.
A coat of karakul moire, that looks as
glossy and as brilliantly ''watered' as
one species of dog, is a very becoming
black choice. and is being trimmed this
autumn with colored ribbon, among
which a vivid violet is a favorite choice.
The ribbon is just arranged as bows
down the front of the coat, and is in
tensified by masses of loops and plum
age in the karakul and felt hat, that
is, the complement OF the coat
1t is to be an autumn of basques. The
short bolero will be worn, and so will
the tiny coat, and exc the dolInan. but
the Jacket that can achieve piquancy
and yet be basqued will be the one to
command most attention and admira-
ton. 1t will be frightened by the latest
fancy in vests, and the most delightful
applications of velvet, applied in divers
new and becoming ways. A fiute6
band Of quite narrow golden velvet
embroidered with little red hips and
haws and suggestion of faded leaves
separates the final band of sable thai
edges a short sacque coat from the rest
of the garment, and reappears as Dor
dering to the collar and cuffs.
In another case the Jacket has vest
Of gold and silver soutache, which
harmonizes with the sable to perfec-
ton, and combines with the richness
of the one metal the purity and cool.
