NEW YORK LETTER.
Beautiful Window Displays - Airy
Spring Novelties shown

The shops of New York have 'neve9
presented a more fascinating appear
ance than during these last few weeks
OF midwinter when all the between sea
son fashions are displayed at such
amazingly low prices. Early spring
novelties, which look deliciously fresh
after the heavier fabrics of winter. are
shown in airy smartness beside auto
mobile coats and furs.
Apropos of furs, the woman who is
thoughtful can now procure the most
beautiful pieces-coats, NUTS, boas, etc
i'm such bargains as to make il a good
investment for colder weather still to
come OF for next winter. The luxury
of owning a beautiful set of furs is
wonderfully gratifying. They lend an
air of richness that nothing can equal.
and a fur set in three pieces-hat, scarf
and muf-can be secured most reason
ably. Then. too. fur trimmings are al
ways popular on evening wraps OF
gowns, and combined with these are
some of the choicest of laces which
make hat or muff simply adorable.
Devotees of fashion spend hours in the
selection of rare old lace. whose filmy
trimmings cost fabulous sum. for
lace is like wine-its value Increases
with age.
Seen in one of the shops this week
that is noted for its exquisite lingerie
waists were several that showed in
stead of medallions tiny lace bouquets
of such flowers as snowdrops, lilies of
the valley. etc, IN such wonderful imi-
tations that ii would be hard TO dis
tinguish them from real lace. These
have an air of individuality about them
that was not seen in other models.

with a lead pencil, and said:
