WHAT MlLADY
SELECTS TO WEAR.
Things Found in Wardrobe
of Stylish Women.

New York, December 13.-Now that
cold weather is really in sight at last
Milady is able to bring forth her
furs, much to her delight. Soft luXE-
rious stoles, hugs muffs, long and eel
giant wraps and fur trimmed hats are
some of the things in which Madam
oiselle la Mode revels, and this
winter more than ever.
One of the smartest little chapeauN
noted recently was of deep and lus-
trous black velvet, in the fashionable
medium size, and with brim that
was but slightly curled. Around the
crown was narrow band of snowy
white fur, which terminated at the
left side in two little outstanding tabs
that were made for all the world like
rabbit ears "a-listening." But it was
undeniably good looking and will make
a very smart finish to some girls
toilette.
+ The vogue for black and white eff
fects in millinery has been especially
marked this season. Black velvet hats
with little tailored or pleated bows
and bands of white gros grain, satin
( or silk; black felts with white wings
bleck velvet with graceful white
| plumes or outstanding branches OF
hite feathers or aigrettes-all these
one notes in a fashionable throng.
There are many new ideas in the
furs of this winter The square or
rounded collars which have been worn
on the gowns and wraps has been
copied with much cleverness in the
fur pieces. AS to the kind of furs,
, these will be many Lynx will have
Il place St, TOO, will foX-bO Il e
pointed variety and the cross fox.
, The long pony coats that are so good
looking and withal so practical, will
! be used for both day and evening
wear
A new arrival in the realm of
dress fabrics is the double-faced pop
lin-an old friend in a new guise. One
side has the lustrous sheen of a satin.
the other has the corded texture one
usually associates with poplin. The
colOrings are very charming and in
clude the especially we'll liked brown
shades as we'll as the fashionable vio-
let tones.
Silk and wool poplins are also very
much used for beautiful house AMI
evening dresses, for they have the
necessary warmth required of a n
ter fabric with the graceful clinging
quality of those lighter in weight
They are durable, too, and wear We y
we'll.
For morning wear with tailored
suits, the fashionable blouse is one of
sheer white, with a collar of the same
material. 1t is usually a mass of
sheer tucks and has only a French
looking frill, very full and fluffy, a..
the side, to relieve its simplicity. OF
ten the frill is edged with Irish lace
and there is, too, band of the Irish
face at the top of the collar and on
the cuffs.

PREFERENCE PRIMARY" CONE
HOME TO ROOST.

From complicated mass of charg-
es, claims, representation and misrep-
reservations of press agents, there
stands out clearly one proposition Of
interest to professional Republican
politicians in Illinois. This is a new
feature to be added to the WORKOUT
tricks, with which politicians have
been playing the game for years. It
is the Presidential Preference Prim-
ary," which was created in Ohio
three years ago to promote the polit-
ical ambitions of Col. Roosevelt and
William Howard Taft and to make the
latter the unanimous choice of the
Republican delegates from that state.
Since that time the presidential
Preference Primary" has been lost
sight of until recently, when the OPP
ponents of President Taft in Ohio, as
also in Illinois, resurrected it to be
used against him. The main hope Of
the New Nationalist" the Progress
ives" and Insurgents all of whom
belong to the same political family
is to accomplish the defeat of Presi-
dent Taft in the Rext National Repub-
lican Convention through the medium
q fthe Presidential Primary.
No actual steps have been taken 70
bring about the adoption of this form
of party expression in Illinois. But the
men who are arrayed against Presi-
dent Taft purpose to project into the
meeting Of the Republican State Com
mittee a proposition to make it 0per-
ative at the spring primary, when del
egates will be elected to the State
Convention, which in turn will elect
the delegates to the National Con-
vention. Whether this effort will
succeed or not depends a good deal
upon the ability of Stand Patters,"
"Reactionaries" and practical machine
men to stay the demand for it which
appears to be spreading in every part
of Illinois,.
The friends of Col. Roosevelt are
rising to the Presidential Preference
halt with the rapacitv of trout. United
Staes SenaOr LaFollette, his friends
and press agents are contributing en-
couragement in every form; the Wis
consin Senator has even labelled t
THE Wisconsin Idea" Senator La
Toilette. of course, expects to benefit
from the aDplication of the Presiden-
tial Preference in Illinois. What ben
eft Col. Roosevelt expects to derive
from it is problematical His friends
and champiOns-of which there are
many still left in the state-are in
clined to accept him at his word that
he is not an aspirant for the Republi-
can nomination for President. If he
were, there might be a different story
to tell.
