New York, Nov. 2.-The popular
ity IF lace blouses seems to increase
as the season advances, and 1t Is pe-
lieyed that the lingerie waist will re-
ceive little favor. Where 1t Is pos
sible. these lace blouses match the
skirt. This is not difficult II the
skirt is of a champaign or brown
color. The coarse meshed laces
seem TO be used more than the fine
ones. and the prettiest of these
waists are made OF strips of hlet
lace which Is put together with a
fancy stitch. Some are made of three
different laces over foundation OF
fine cotton net, and are trimmed
with narrow ruffles of Cluny lace. 1t
Is very smart to wear velvet ribbon
a Quarter Of an inch wide, at the
top OF the collar and tie in small
bog i'm the back, which may be kept
in place by n small bar pin. Tiny
bows OF black satin are worn in the
front of many stocks.
One of the prettiest fashions in
hats. is the facing of felts with col
ored velvet. The French prefer the
Irish green velvet for this purpose
rather than any other color. 1t is a
very becoming style to have the col
or next to the fact, especially II the
hat is of a dark color. Hatter's sat
in is being used to a great extent be-
cause of its adaptability for the most
modish shapes 1t comes in all col
ors. and hats that are made of 1t
are considered very stylish.
A smart tailored walking costume
of brown serge suiting, has the skirt
made instep length in three circular
sections which are Joined under grad
uated hens. There is a seam down
the center of the back which gives
the effect below the hops. The cuta-
way coat has the wide armhole ef-
feet and the sleeves are plain, full
length. The lower part Of the vest
is of herring bone silk braid, while
the upper section is of brown velvet
which matches the straps on the
cuffs.
The mandarin coat has been re-
ceIved with much favor, but the XII
mono coat is generally liked so 1t VIII
not be given up entirely, even If 1t Is
a little old style. Many elaborate
coats have been copied from the gen.
uine Chinese garments One coat
has been made of plum satin en-
broidered all over in Chinese design
and coloring. The lower part OF the
coat was of plum colored broadcloth
and the lining was of soft blue SATIN
in the dull Chinese tone which was
n prominent color in the embroidery.
The coat fronts were fastened togeth-
er with Oriental gold clasps with or
naments.
1t is evident that purple is the IA
vorite color for this winter. All the
smartest hats are mode of purple
or ecru. II that can be worn equally
as we'll Besides the morning glories
and orchids and fleur-de-lis that
these hats are trimmed with are
beautiful levender and purple PAN
sizes.
The fashion of pinning a small
bunch of fine artificial flowers on
the bodice for dressy occasions, Is as
popular as It was last spring, but this
winter the flowers will be purple, OF
course. Morning glores and the long
trumpet flowers will be worn. They
are also pinned on a muff of black
fur.
Most of the belts are made to
match the blouse, some being cover
ed with embroidery or gold thread
nut on some design. The newest
elastic belts come in shades of green
tan and blue and are studded with
gold, silver, steel or jet. The buckle
can be matched to the Jewelry that is
worn, so making a complete set
Some buckles that are worn with fur
blouses or heavy velvet jackets that
are trimmed with fur are the bear
