coats are extremely practical.
Nothing has been found to bring
the suit bodice into harmony with
the skirt as we'll as yelling it with
chiffon of matching color. The pep
lum or basque effect on the separate
waist is still seen. New models have
the full length sleeve. There Is quite
a fancy for brilliant colors in cuffs,
these affording the one strong touch
of color. There Is an extensive use
made of the large simulated button
hole on waists, or the actual button
hole bound in color. Another novelty
is the pear-shaped drop buttons or
ornaments which hang from these
buttonhole slashes. It Is a rather
pretty fashion. Sometimes small tas.
sci ornaments fall from embroidered

longs or diamond shaped ornaments

Fdds and Fashions

.Bv FLORENCE FAIRBANKS

New York, Nov 9.-Brobably never
before In the history of fashion has
so much extravaganza been display
ed In any part of woman's costume as
there Ia at this time in evening coats.
There is scarcely rich and beauti'
full material known which is not en-
ployed in the composition of such
coats. One of the most characters
tic materials used for evening coats
this season is brocade, but there are
also the most exquisite velvets,
pushes, silks, satins, laces, furs and
other materials, which the great de-
slgners employ in the construction
of their choicest models.
Among the handsomest coat ma.
terials are the gold and silver bro
cades and the cloths embossed In
close designs of white or colored vel
vet. There are some stunning, though
hardly practical, coats made up Of
white and gold or white and silver
trimmed with white fox or dark fur
More serviceable are the coats o.

black velvet brocade on metallic
grounds with black fur for trimming
and Innings of brilliant color.
Taupe velvet upon duh silver or
gold makes a rich practical dark
evening coat. Black and white eff
fects in embossed velvet are good and
there are some excellent models in
these materials, usually long draped
coats trimmed only with dark fur.
One of the great French designers
has used successfully velvet which
has a rather fine close black design
on white ground with, at infre-
quent intervals, just small splash
of color introduced into the design,
no more than small ovel forming the
centre of a conventionalized flower.
In black and white and duh red this
Is very good looking and with bril-
liant blue in place OF the dull red it
Is also attractive.
With each there is the fur border
but the lining matches the touch Of
color and In one model there Is very

dured in patience, but an artificial nui-
sance which can be abated.
Proper Stocking Needed.
Inspector McMichaers estimates show
that about Is per cent of the city's con-
sumption of steam and domestic coal
can be saved by proper stocking and the
use of proper furnaces. The city CON
sumes about $1,575,000 worth of coal per
year, and the saving would be $2S6,25O.
But he showed also that the loss by
smoke damaged clothing, homes and
properties amounts to not less than
$4,000 year, and this loss is shared
by every person in the shadow of the
smokestacks and chimneys of Atlanta.
IF you can prove to manufacturers
that their smoke costs them dollars and
cents, you have won the battle" said

not all be aroused by appeal along sem

save coal bills by proper firing. he is

best to save that cash"
The law forbidding locomotives with
in the city limits to emit black smoke

probable within the next day or two.
Inspector McMichael has found that the
railroads have an average of 800 loco
motives inside the limits every day. The
roads have agreed to do what they can
to abate their share of the nuisance.
Watch For Violations.

stationary engines ana furnaces to per-

AS the campaign nears it's close 1t

Democratic candidate for president and

James F. Geraghty, secretary Of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire and
Engineers of New York, sent out a let
ter to all officers and members of the

Wilson, Sulzer and Glynn.
OF Governor Wilson, he SAYS:
Governor Wilson has shown his
heart and sympathy are with the rail-
road employees in his message to the
New Jersey legislature. He recon-
mends legislation which will compel the
railroads to be equipped with full
crews and he has advocated legisla-
ton which would compensate an in
jured person. Therefore, it is our duty
to cast aside our political Affiliations
and vote for the Democratic party, if
we ever expect to receive beneficial
legislation"
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, an
nounces his support of Wilson, and
says:
Personally, l am in favor Of Wilson
as president and will vote for him, and
| believe the preponderance of senti-
ment on the part of the workers is for
Wilson and the Democratic party as
the party most favorable to measures in
the interest of labor. | believe Roose-
welt will poll a large vote, but he has
no chance of election.
