pink roses without foliage.
Fur toques in ermine, fox or velvet
are abundant. Many of the smartest
models have an antique gold or silver e
buckle or bit of rich lace for their '
only ornament. For trimming velvet
hats, the crochetted wool flowers and
garlands are still being freely used.
Silk roses, too, that look homemade
are another of the years fancies. The
milliner just now seems to be posses
sed with extreme tastes. Nothing short
of the very large or the very small,
the very high or the very low, suits
her. But her trimmings are very
simple. simple in the extreme. Just
tuft of fur, a bunch of little much
curled tips, a swirl of gauze or lace,

and many of the best pieces have lit
tie borders which are used to deco

For house which is not up to the de-
sired standard in warmth, especially
in the morning hours, these challis
are even used for sacques and negli-
gees; they have Innings of albatress
and are the suggest comforts on cold
days. The plain albatress can be
brought out to trim figured challis
and the effect is the prevalent reversi-
BILE style.
Getting down to the subject of
coats one can only repeat that both
long and short coats are worn. And
there seems to be a great demand for
plush coats. since they can be class
ed in the list of fur materials. Vel
vet coats are seen, but they are moth
ing like as effective as the plush mod
els. However velvet looks more OF
less like plush by reason Of the long
pile. and women having a weakness
for velvet can. if they choose invest
in a velvet wrap-provided they pa!
enough for the very heavy finish.
