Smart NecktieS and Motor ScarfS.

Exceedingly pretty are the striped ties,
red and white, blue and white or any
artistic combination Of colors, and these,
of course, are made by joining at regular
distances strips of equal width of the
alternate colors. Two tones of the one
color, as tan and brown, purple and
mauve, light and dark gray, are also ex-
ceedingly smart and look especially well
with dark cloth costumes. OF the plain
cOlors the pastel shades of blue, brown,
green and old rose are most in favor at
the moment, and there Is a certain shade
of shrimp pink that for a girl is ex-
quisite, although somewhat conspicuous
for a boy or man. Mixed colors are no
longer greatly in demand, although two
shades of the one color woven in the silk
are fashionable while IN the solid cOlors
anything at all new or unusual is much
to be desired.
For a girls tie thirty-eight or forty
inches IN all is a good length and the
width may be two and One-half or three
instead of the two inches preferred by
most men. The part passing under the
collar IS Of course decidedly narrower,
and this narrow part must be varied IN
length to fit the wearer. For school white
wash waists are now worn weH into tne
winter and there Is no prettier way OF
finishing a simple bodice than with sun
white collar and soft silk tie of becom'
ing shade.
Exceedingly pretty and most service
able are the new "motor scarfs," made
like the knitted or crocheted scarfs, but
worn about the neck over the collar to
protect It from dust and also to give
some little warmth before the 4ime fol
furs. Special spools Of silk three times
the size Of the ordinary spools are to bs
had for these scarfs, 50 that the silk vii
not have to be Joined anywhere. Made
up In white OF any light, becoming shade
the motor scarfs are most attractive and
are to be worn by men as well as women
to protect the collar from the dye Of O
FUR coat They are from four to sia
Inches in width and about a yard In
length. A two inch fringe Of the sin
makes an attractive finish to this smart
motor scarf"

be Of the hghtest weight and most open
mesh, but should be of wool or silk
and wool mixture. That is, this precau-
ton should be taken if a cotton, linen or
thin silk waist is to be worn. If the
waist Of the frock is Of woollen material
of course this precaution is not necessary.
In skating the hands and feet are
usually the parts of the body which
feel the cold most severely. The
skater needs heavy boots and high ones,
and It is now the fashion to have boots
made especially for this purpose. IL
they are laced boots they frequently are
strapped across the top with narrow
bands Of leather, which buckle on one
side.
The gloves should also be well looked
after Woollen gloves are admirable for
skating and entirely stylish, especially In
white. The dogskin gloves with woollen
or fur Innings are also good, and indeed
any warm glove, no matter how cumber-
some in appearance, is suitable. The only
glove which is not considered in good
style for skating is that which seems un-
comfortably thin and dressy. OF course
most skaters carry muffs, but even these,
although they are a practical necessity as
we'll as an attractive adjunct OF the skat-
ing costume, do not take the place OF
warm, soft gloves.

may be Of a long haired fur, brown OF
white fox being much worn.
For skating it is always more comfort
able to have a costume which may be
lightened during the actual skating and
made warmer after the skating is over.
This is done either by having additional
wraps, such as heavy scarfs Of fur OF
wool, boleros Of fur or loose fitting
jackets, under which sweaters, woollen
waistcoats, &c, may be worn. When
this latter device is adopted the skater
removes the outer coat on reaching the
pond or rink and skates in the under coat
or long sleeved sweater. Sweaters are
quite as fashionable as ever for this pur.
pose and are often worn with Tam o
Shanters and pleated skirts. Such a cos.
tune, although not so elegant as one OF
cloth. velvet and fur, is often most com
Portable and decidedly picturesque.
There are the most attractive sweaters
this season which may be used for skat

the most charming ones for this purpos,
are Of the soft AIlgora wool, which

pretty gray sweaters bordered with red
Red sweaters are also much used for skat-
ing, both In the Angora and the other
WOOL They are popular for wear with
brown, gray, blue or checkered skirts.
The turtle necked sweater, in spite of
all the years it has been popular, Is
still considered most desirable, as it Is
always becoming and has more the look
.of a purely outdoor garment than any
Of the other shapes. For skating, how
ever, Il has the disadvantage Of being
very warm about the throat Most
persons find it more comfortable to wear
sweater open at the throat while skat-
ing, and afterward to bundle up with a
scarf or fur collar. In the sweaters
which are cut out at the throat there is
this season a style called the Norfolk
jacket which is very becoming. It is
double breasted and made exactly like a
Norfolk jacket. The single breasted
jacket is equally popular. Still more
stylish for a very young girl Is the sailor
model. which has the deep and wide sailor
collar and Is quite open at the throat.
This sweater is very difficult to wear un-

skating place. The Jersey sweater,

the plain knitted tie is best unless the GRO

Then, too, crocheted ties are especially

Velveteen and corduroy are both much
used for skating costumes for young girls.
A fayorite method of employing them is
to have the suit made of either of these
materials, so that it may be worn with a
fur overjaeket- The skirt may have q
border of fur, which should not be too
heavy. The coat is made in an Elton or
rather close fitting blouse, so that the
bolero of fur will look well over it. The

red line forming the plaid. The skirt was
pleated with five rows Of stitching around
the bottom. II had pointed yoke formed
by the stitching at the top, rather an in
novation In skirts, for yozes have not
been seen for some time. The jacket was
a blouse, single breasted and fastened
with three large buttons. II was laid In
pleats at the top and was made very
broad shoudered, the shoulders going
well over the arm. The sleeves were Of
medium fulness and taken into a cuff.
The blouse was belted into a stiff belt Of
heavy gray corded silk. With this cos
tune were worn scarf Of gray astra-
khan, which tied around the throat in a
four-ln-hand, and a gray astrakhan muff.
The hat was a Napoleonic turban, faced
with the fur and trimmed with a red
cockade.
This same design is carried out IN
black, brown and blue velvet and is most
practicable and becoming In all these
fabrics.
Velveteen and cloth skating frocks are
also made most attractive to wear with
fur boleros and fur sets to match. A cos
tune made Of cloth in this fashion Is

skirt finished with three folds, and the
jacket Is in the shape Of blouse, having
