FADs AND FASHIONS.

tensively, as we'll as the heads, tails
and paws, which are really more
popular and very fashionable. The
narrow stole neckpieces are going
out of style, and the very wide
pieces, some reaching nearly to the
waistline in the back and to the
knees in the front, are the latest,
that are seen. The muffs are all
very large, and are made in every
conceivable shape, and yet, the most
fashionable is the square muff. There
seems to be no end to the different
ways that fur coats are made. The
short pony Jackets, the three-quarter
semi-fitted ones and the long loose
seven-eights length coats are all
worn. The more fancy coats are
made on the cutaway model, and the
Japanese sleeves are favorites for
these. The fashionable furs of the
season are mink, caracul, broadtail,
lynx, white, brown and black fox,
sealskin and ermine, and the less ex-
pensive ones are Persian paw, Rus
sian pony, mole-dyed squirrel, mar
ten, Alaska sable and black bear
Costume With Coat and VeVst.%
The favorite style for the tailored
afternoon costume is the coat with
the fancy vest and the many-gored
full skirts, trimmed with two or
three bias bands. A stunning cos
tune of this style was seen recently
developed in plum blue satin cloth,
hn CIT u
The vest was plum-blue taffeta,
striped with black, and on either
side of the coat were three cut-steel
buttons. The cuffs and collar were
of deeper shade of velvet than the
material. The skirt was of the thir-
teen-gored model. each seam stitched
heavily with black silk, and the
front seam was a plain box plat
trimmed with eight cut-steel buttons.
The bias bands of the material, put
on at equal distances apart, made
the skirt complete
Lovely Evening Gowns.
Evening Gowns of lace, net chif-
fon, satin or crepe are unusually
lovely. The bordered materials are
exquisite, and the spangled gowns
are equally as beautiful. An excep-
tionally handsome gown of gray silk
net had a deep border embroidered
in self-tones with clusters of crystal
beads dotted over the ground. The
touch of coloring was brought out in
the girdle of apple-green satin.
Pompadour net and chiffon make
lovely combination when ornamented
with pastilles worked in gold thread
in sizes ranging from dots the size
of pea to those of a silver dollar
Wide Rance of Sleeves
The question of sleeves is indeed
very important one The japanese
sleeve which has been so popular has
been practically set aside by all mod
ell makers. However, the slipping
seamless shoulders and the wide arm
hole is very fashionable. Sleeves in
blouse waists are usually large and
full at the top and fitting closely at
the wrist. On some of the afternoon
and dinner gowns the sleeves are
long and very full. with only a slight
change at the wrist.
Fats tn Match Suits.
Some of the new hats that are be-
ing made to wear with a suit of a
different color are really astonishing
with their many colors With

on top and coral pink under the brim.

that was much prettier was a suit

with pale tea roses with the green
leaves, and a dull faded green wing

Manv STYLES in Skirts.
In regard to skirts of the season,
1t seems as though there could not
be any more STYLES than there are at
present Gathers, plaits, shirrings
and tucks continue to be correct. For
heavier materials in worsteds and in
broadcloth and velvet the favorite
model is the circular gored, having
the panel effects and simulated tun-
les. The sheath skirt has been re-
ceived with much favor. These give
the clinging effect but have a decid-
ed flare at the foot Deep facings
from 10 to Is inches of matching
satin are seen on many of the broad
cloth and velvet skirts.
White Seroe Tailored Suits.

lar or plated model The cuffs and
