THE LATEST FADS
and FASHIONS,
Especial to the ARGUs.)


There is a new belt which is very
smart made OF black patent leather
punctured with large holes which are
trimmed with German silver. The
buckle is very heavy and matches the
rims.
Lingerie waists when made over q.
lining of some delicate shade have a
much dressier look and are more at
tractive than a plain white. Indian
linen made over pale pink chiffon and
hand-embroidered through both makes
a charming waist.
There is a new brooch that jewelers.
are now showing which pins on a ban
quet. 1t has a bumped bar across it
through which the stems are put and
then it is fastened to the coat or bodice.
These brooches are set with diamonds
or some precious jewels.
A very inexpensive and novel hat
pin is a tiny fur head of brown black,
gray or white which is worn in a fur
hat or one that is trimed with fur. The
jew elers are showing these pins in
high prices when set with brilliant
eyes of precious OF semi-precious
stones.
The very newest fad in jewelry is
the tiny ring watch, which is worn
of these cannot be found less than 500
and when trimmed with gems they
make an expensive piece OF jewelry.
They are small and well proportioned
nd look well on the slenderest hand.
If one posses a sealskin coat OF an
old style, it is an easy matter to re-
model it into a jaunty jacket. It may
be trimmed with lighter turs which
set it off to a good advantage, or what
seems to be the latest idea is embroid-
cred white satin or perforated broad
cloth making broad revers, deep girdle
and gauntlet cuffs.
A novelty in evening gloves has
shown in one of the New York
shops. They were long white gloves

and at the top were V-shaped insets OF
kid to match the stitching. This was
not the only color seen, for there were
yellow gloves with black trimmings,
soft shades OF mode with brown stitch
ings and black with insets of gray,
hite and red.

flowers tucked into the corsage is hav-
ing considerable attention paid to it.
At present the most modish flowers
are malmaisons, roses and violas. 1t
is not difficult to get the first mention
ed blossoms and they wear we'll SO the
real ones are chosen rather than the
made ones; however, roses droop
SO quickly and violas are SO hard to
find that the artificial flowers are pre-
ferred. The roses are worn singly
with an enormous long stalk.
New York, Dec. 28-When the opera
season commences, people begin to
coats, or better, capes, that are en-
.veloping and graceful and are shown
in the pale shades of broadcloth. Some
are lined with heavy satin and wad-
ded. These coats are trimmed with
ermine and heavily braided. Chiffons
and nets, laces and Observation-Disclosures
are seer on them. Velvet of the softest
make is often used instead OF broad
cloth.
Some beautiful tea gowns are being
made of striped materials in gauze and
satin and chiffon. One especially at
tractive empire gown was seen in a
fine cobwebby ace dyed in the old
gold tone ornamented with crystal
bugle embroidery in the same tone and
mad over a clinging satin foundation
of the same color. The ahoulder
draperies and bottom of the skirt
were bordered with a narrow line of
dark fur. Another gown of Atlantic
blue liberty satin had as a trimming
wide bands and mitifs of course ilet
dyed to match the satin and was en-
broidered very heavily in blue and
gold. Heavy golden tassels were the
ornaments used on the hugh wing
like sleeves.
