of furs. Skunk, which has never at
tanned in America the popularity which
it has gained in Paris, is in demand
for narrcw band trimmings, and muffs
of this graceful fur deity combined
with soft satin, are much affected by
the younger set. Muffs are still large
and are either pillow or barrel shaped,
the lining being shirred to fit the wrist
closely. Both short and long stoles
are worn. Where the former is de-
sired, two whole skins are used with
both heads and tails showing. The
lining is a very soft one, so that the
wrap lies fiat on the shoulders, Civ
ing the desired protection to the back
and chest without giving the appear
ance of short neck. In the long stoles
the back part is made to cover the
shoulders well in either square or
pointed effect, while the front fastcns

knees, increasing the long line in

The old-time waterfall style has

the knowledge that one is quite in the
fashion. The Partisan fad of combin-
ing fur with chiffon and lace is a very
pretty one, and for evening or early
winter wear it is much used. The chit
fon figures chiefly in scarfs or under
sleeves and vests in short coats. In the
latter the fur part resembles a close
fitting stole, and the chiffon softly
frilled or plated transforms it into a
coat. Seal, sable, mink, lynx, fox and
black marten are the favorite furs.
while for smart occasions broadtail and
ermine are essential. ChincEilla has
dropped in favor for the time being, its
place having been usurped by the eff
fective Australian opossum. Sable has
always been considered q very extrava-
giant fur and beyond the reach of the
average pocketbook. With the present
styles, however, where the skins lend
themselves readily without being cut
at all to muff, stole or coat, II would
seem to be one of the most practical

Fur coats are to be much worn IN
length from SO to SO inches, the short
er ones, of course, being more pract
cal for walking. They are all semi
fitting in the back and front, and the
rather small sleeves are invariably
finished with a cuff. Sometimes this
cuff is made of a different fur, long
haired; but where this is not specially
desired, the sleeve is made very long
and rolled back. When necessary to
take the place of 4 muff, this can be
pulled down over the hands. Long
shawl collars and huge revers are
equally popular. A new motor coat

of seal being made large enough to
show beyond the narrower collar of
marten, with which this smart model
was trimmed. Very large, fancy but
tons of passementerie. chenille or silk
cord are used for fastening or to
cover the fastening.

The Gainsborough style requires

encircles the head, after the manner

head is then filed in with mass Of
loose curls, with several of them escap-

to lie on the nape of the neck. For
the young face, 10 which the ringlets
hanging in front of the ears cannot

called the Recamier mode is very win
