it is necessary to bear in mind the use

Quills and wings properly employed are

Some of the plain sleeves are given
plain, embroidered or braided band
trimmings above the elbow. while the
lower part of the sleeve is left perfectly
unadorned. Cloth gowns open have the
bands of silk with a button finishing a
wide upper arm band at the center,
Fringe or ball ornaments often trim the
lower edge of these upper arm bands.
The old-time fashion Of slashing cloth
sleeves over plain silk ones and finish
ing the edges with long lines Of silk
covered buttons has returned. 4 great

the shade OF the gown continues to
make up yokes and sleeves, but there is
a leaning toward sleeves of the ma

One Of the handsomest coats seen this
season was made OF broadtail IN Direc-
toire style. The three-quarter skirt of
the garment was slightly full and
tapered away from the trout to the
dipping back. 4 sash that went around
the high placed waist to within a few
inches of the front at each open side
was of black satin finished at each
side with a handsome buckle and rosette,

the coat on each side. The front. closed
at the throat, had big satin bow and
revers finished with embroidery. a

silk embroidered in silks and Jewels a
stunning pale gray broadcloth suit has
novel finish. The hip length coat cut
off short and straight at the front has
the bottom edges Of the fronts finished
with ermine tails, Down the fronts
from the neck to the bottom OF the
garment there is a double row Of but
tons covered with white fur and around
the collar and cuffs is row of the tails.
An ermine muff with handsome tail
finish goes with the suit.
Single buttons at prices current in

jeweled, handmade and oriental effects,

dings and jeweled touches in coloripgs
to match any costume are prevalent.
Some in topaz with old rose gold finish
are especially attractive. The tailor
made cloth and silk covered buttons
are more used than anything else, al
though braid and silk piping buttons
are also IN great favor. Among the
latter kinds the ones with cone-s6aped
tops are just now having a decided run.
Where an accessory color is used on

and skirt are often trimmed with the
darker material and filed in the center
