Feminine FdnCieS as to Things
to Wear.

New York, tOct. PA fact that will
interest all women is, that long coats
will be very much in style this winter.
Those for every day YEA show but
little change from those worn two sea-
sons ago. The dressy long coats are
cut on different lines, with more grace
and fit to them than the loose fur-lined
and shapeless coats which motoring
has made SO common. such coats are
designed to be worn owe thin frocks,
to lectures, concerts, or card parties.
Some are made with short loose sleeves
and are collarless, and with a coat Of
this style a large muff and a wide
stole are quite necessary for additional
warmth.
Wells were never any more worn
than they are at present. A mesh veil
worn over the hat and pinned in the
back with a veil pin, is a popular way
for wearing one. The more expensive
ones have trills of chiffon Liberty, ac-
Gordon plated around the bottom and
are very becoming to most faces. The
newest effect has a border of ribbon
stitched all around the veil.
It has been many years since the
black evening frock was in popular
favor. but with this coming winter, it
promises to be very much in vogue. A
pretty model would be to have the
49, r l1z-J- z:I1
with an inch wide satin stripe and the
whole thing being made p over white
monsaline. The skirt should be cut
circular, and trimmed with bias bonds
of the mousaline, which are embroid-
cred with silver spang1es. The waist
is made low neck, with a deep bertha,
which is also embroidered with spang-
les, and edged with a full narrow
ruching.
Such dainty little ties and jebots are
linen collars. One diamond shaped
collar-piece was made of embroidered
batiste edged with narrow lace. An
other was more on the bow-tie order.
The flat bow effects were finished be-
low with two tab ends, one longer than
the other. This was made of dotted
Swiss and edged with Valenciennes
lace.
Jewelry of all sorts is more fascinat-
ing than ever before. The favorite
emerald. In fact, any stone with a
greenish tinge in it is in great de-
mand. The stones that come next in
fashion are pink pearls and very pale
pink coral. Some beautiful designs
have been shown where these two
stones were used to set off the emerald
or jade, and the effect was charming.
There is a new shade called egg
plant purple that is now being used
for coat suits, with the trimmings of
purple velvet. This color, the new
peacock blne, and mahogany brown
are used mostly for trimmings on jack
cts, as they are a little too conspicuous
for entire costumes, but in some cases,
very stunning suits have been made of
them.
Some of the Autumn wraps are seen
in shades of gold, straw, chamois,
oxchre, buff and apricot. They are
usually made up of broadcloth, and
lined with white or a contrasting col
Or.
The wide hem of black, Natter blue,
or a contrasting color continues to be
the popular feature on evening CO.'S
tunes. This not only gives a pretty
effect to the skirt, but adds weight to
the thin fabric and holds it down. Ere
quently these bands are trimmed with
passementeric effects at the joining the
trimming continuing upward.
A pretty trock that seems to be a
popular model for a young school girl,
is made on similar lines to the sailor
suit. The blouse slips over the head,
and there are wide Gibson plaits, which
give breadth to the shoulders. The
chemisette, flat, narrow collar, turn
back cuffs and belt, are maid of plaid
silk or a color that would brighten the
dress. The skirt is nine gored and is
trimmed with two bands of the silk
near the bottom.
Nets for trimmings as well as fol
gowns are in great demand. Emf
cred nets have taken the place of 1aces
to some extent. One especially pretty
black net was embroidered in color
with natalie glints through it. FIounc
ings and bands are shown in fine gray
net, embroidered with silver thread
!, which is so dull that it seems to be
darker grey than the net.
+, For autumn costumes, h new shad
ow broadcloths are decidedly the mos
stylish of all materials. They are so in
