FURS NOW ON VIEW.

New ana Attractive Models - Seal, |
CaracaI and Broadtatl Represented
One is reminded of the passage Of
time by the fact that the fur garments
for cold winter days are now on view,
and 1t would seem that human inge-
nuity could go no further in inventing
novel combinations in this field. Kline
was when a coat Of one kind of fur
was considered sufficiently beautiful,
but now what we see is an array of
coats with ruffies Of another kind Of
fur from that in the body of the gar
ment and cuffs, revers or deep collars
of still another kind. / saw one three
quarter coat made of mink skins, the
dark centers being strongly defined in
each stripe, for the whole coat looks
like a series of plaitings on account Of
the way the skins are sewed. The
sleeves were bishop shape, elbow
length with deep ermine cuffs and a
wide shawl collar. Around the bottom
was held in ruf1ie made of choice
skunk fur, than which nothing can be
richer save sable. To go with this is
a big pillow muff, with no end of tails
and tiny heads such as would surely
astonlsh the minks if they could see
them.
Aside from the long fur garments
and broadcloath coats lined with SOUR
rel or muskrat fur, there are too many
different kinds Of short fur coats and
Jackets to mention. But all seem TO
have very short waists, and there are a
few that are made of one kind only.
The black astrakhan, caracal and
broadtail are all represented. Seal is
also seen, but is very dear and becom-
ing dearer rapidly. In the line of neck
pieces there seems to be no end, but
1t is impossible to say wherein they
differ from those of last year. Throw
scarfs are seen in astounding album
dance, so that one wonders If there are
women enough in all the world to wear
them The short sleeve is still with us
in the furs, and that necessitates long
gloves at from So to So and even more
a pair. and big muffs that can be
brought up close to the elbows.
Some very stylish semifitted pony
coats of caracal, broadtail and sable
1 squirrel are now exhibited, and they
/ are offered at a less price than will
| prevail later in the season. Pillow
muffs and throw ties are to be as
fashionable as they were during the
last season.
Next to the furs come the new ma
terials for fine outdoor suits. Among

Humor 0no Philosophy
BY DUNCAN n. SMITH
DOWN TO BUSINESS.

1t matters not how we crate
About cause that we are booming
And on its merits loudly pirate.
Great bales Of heated air consuming.
And. be it politics or art
Or something else for which we holler,
The cause that's closest TO our heart
Is one that brings US in dollar.
Aloft in realms on high we soar,
About the future specializing.
And theories deep we ponder DER,
Their merits carefully debating,
But when we open UP cur vest
And tell the searcher to go through Us
He'll find the fad that suits US best
Is one that brings the money to US.
We talk about the simple life
And everything in that connection
In fact. we argue with our wife
That 1t is good for the complexion.
In every way we figure out
That it IS better than the other.
And then we turn and think about
How we can do a man and brother.
We plan to push reform along,
To hand a knockout blow to error,
To take cracA at every wrong
And be the evildoer's terror.
And then We see dollar note
And drop our hobby to pursue 1t,
Toss off our necktie and our coat
Lest some one else should beat US
to 1t.
