At the Newport horse show some weeks
ago. when the weather was quite sum
merry, many women appeared in the chic
little fur wraps and scarfs: though M
muffs were carried at that time. Most or
the little wraps were in shaw. effect.
though some were definitely shaped over
the shoulders into sleeves. Mink. skunk
and the beautiful, velvety fisher pelts
seemed to be the favorites, and there was
one adorable marabou wrap with the
plumage stripped together in long strips.
which made every woman who saw II
breathlesss with admiration, so soft light
and lovely 1t was.
Satin scarfs and combinations of fur
and satin were there I'm numbers and
unlike the Paris scarfs. which have been
entirely in black and white combinations,
these Newport scarfs matched the color
of the frocks with which they were worn
A wine-red satin scarf lined with cream
was worn over pink chiffon gown and
nearby stood woman in a French blue
gown and a scarf Of blue chiffon with a
deep black stain hem.

Another charming wrap is of black

with a double hem of black chiffon. and
this chiffon being used also for a shirred

between the shoulders in the back, and

but so warm is the little wrap, which
reaches to the waist line and thoroughly
protects the shivery upper arm from the
cold, that most women can wear scarfs
and muffs of this sort all winter long
providing the frock beneath rs not too
diaphanouS in character.
A young Russian lady of rank entered
the Casino at Trouville one night late
in August and created sensation with
her huge muff of jewel-incrusted gold
lace trimmed with magnificent ableS.
The muff was so enormous that it entirely
threw into the shade Der simple vet eX-
quisite frock Of stone-gray satin. relieved
only by double string OF coral beads,
which encircled the throat and fell in two
flaming lines of color over the bosom.
To return to the muff which was the
piece de resistance of the costume it was
as has been said. Of jewel embroidered
gold lace, and this rich material was laid
over old gold satin. the sable bands being
placed, not at the ends of the muff. but
six or eight inches in. SO that they formed
two dark lines across the rich embroid-
cry. There was a small. straight stock of
the gold lace, bordered along its upper
edge with fur. and this stock fastened at
the back with double clasp Of antique
beaten gold set with coral.
Muff and stock were matched by a reti-
Guile of gold lace with a jeweled gold
frame, which hung from the Russian
lady's arm on a long gold cord The eff
feet of these sumptuous accessories
against the somber stone gray of the
gown was most striking, and a week aft
erward every shop in Paris was showing
bfocade muffs with reticuless to match.
This is another notion borrowed from a

world, peasant living in the village of
Pavelsko, Bulgaria, was born, according

We can have at our beck and call
all the year round If funds hold out, but
the summer vegetables and fruits will

wives have long recognized the merits of
the sweet potato made into pie or pud-

still much to learn in that direction. A
