THREE LEADING FUR GARMENTS.

for women-some in pony length. some
reaching to the knees and some to the
foot Of the dress These all have plain
coat sleeves and storm collars. and
some fasten with large smoke pearl
buttons. Russian pony Is another favor
tie for motoring. and coats of these
are made in plain sack effects. with
double rows Of buttons. A few have
no storm collar. but small scarfs at
tnched to the coat to button over OF
fall Some are long, some short and
all are intended for the same purpose.
Mink is another and more expensive
fur for these garments. and in that
we see the same general plan. One or
two of these have the sleeves gathered
in to a cuff at the wrist. with cross
band ending in two or three short tails,
while the neck is finished with de-
tachable collar These mink coats
look very clumsy since the fur is so
thick, but il seems to me that is its;
principal charm.

automobile coats. and it makes Il real
