To secure a savings bank account and
to acquire property on small income are
all well and good provided the price paid
is not the loss of all the things that make
life really worth living. l would rather
give my older son a dollar that he may
see or hear something which viii broaden
or deepen his intellect than nickel for a
moving picture show. The moving picture
show is all right and splendidly instruc-
tive sometimes, but it is not the cheapness
of the entertainment that appeals to my
discriminating taste.
would rather pay $50 or $50 month

HREE WeeKS-and day or two, ~ before Christmas comes around.
 Fingers must fly indeed if every
 - thing is to be finished up in time, and wits must be busy also, if new things are to be thought of for one's score or more of friends.
 Six pretty gifts. all of them possess ing new features are illustrated on to- days page. and each may be fashioned in an hour or less by the skilfull needlewoman. The pincushion-s sachets are intended for the friends who are likely to go a-traveling shortly, for these handy pincushions may be tuck ed into the travelling bag or trunk tray and will leave their trace of sweetness behind among gloves. hand kerchiefs and blouses when the pin- cushions are brought forth to grace dresser or bureau.
 Pincushion No. 1--that is, farthest to the left in the picture--is made of two strips of pale violet moire ribbon and a long, square-cornered pincushion. The picture shows the shape of this cushion which may be made of ordinary muslin filled with bran. Over the cushion goes a thin wadding sprinkled thickly with sachet powder, and over this the violet rib bon. Lay the ribbon strips across each other in the form of a cross (the rib bons of course being exactly the width of the cushion). The point where

The car riage huff matching a draped wrap, Is seldom however trimmed with brushes and paws like huff intended for use in the street with a walking costume. Typical carriage muffs are illustrated with the gray squirrel wrap and the seal and leopsrd wrap. Such muffs may be draped )ver the arm like a scarf, so soft and light are these models. an when the arms are thrust into them, the soft muffs crush up against the figure and seem to mingle with the drapery at the front of the wrap.
 The mink coat pictured is a very handsome model mounting into the four flgure-mark in price. and though this coat is straight in cut its intrinsic elegance makes it suitable for any occasion - though the woman who owned such coat would be apt to

Raccoon Coats for Afternoon Wear.
 Very smart motor coats of raccoon or leopard with collars of long haired fur, are worn by younger women who drive their own electric broughams. These coats have mannish lines, with roomy coat sleeves and belted backs and they slip on and off very easily, being loose enough for comfortable wear over a coat and skirt suit when desired Such a coat was worn by a young matron who stepped out of a

The tawny shade of the coat was repeated in the big collar of blue fox which is really not blue at all but the loveliest lawn shade. Re- moved in the restaurant. the coat showed a lining of old gold satin. It was worn over a smart frock, the skirt just covering the buttoned top of a neat boot. though the patent leather toe was visible. Since any sort of hat may be worn within the wind less shelter of an electric, the frocls was accompanied by a dashing little toque of green velvet with two old gold feathers curling around the brim back of the left ear.
 SealslSin coats and Broadtail coats are also worn by women who drive these exquisltely appointed little cars; but the draped wrap demands the dignity of a limousine and hover Ing footman to open doors and tuck in lap coverings.
 Many short Fur Wraps Appear.
 Signs seem to point to shorter fur coats-for those who fancy them at least Several very chic models both in hip length coats and draped wraps were noted at the recent Horse Show and among the coats was the grace ful model of breitschwanz pictured on todays page. This coat accom- panies an afternoon costume of black velvet overdraped with satin and the coat is cutaway in line, showing more of tho skirt in front than at the back. The big pillow huff matches the coat and completes the elegance of the cos tune. This coat was removed at tea. in the Waldorf Astoria tearoom after a session of the Show and the bodice of the costume proved to be black satin coat opening over an under blouse of sheer batiste embroidery and lace, the blouse being mounted over some very thin pink stuff-pre- sumably chiffon cloth. Draped revers of black velvet finished the satin coat bodice in front and a velvet Robe- spierre collar turned back over the bodice though the throat. rising above the embroidery blouse was bare at tho front.

Now make ring of cardboard for the upper edge of the case. Cover this smoothly with the ribbon to insure firmness, and then shir to the outer side of the ring, the ribbon which forms the sides of the case. This ribbon Is simply a twelve inch length of Pompadour rib bon about two inches wide. The other edge of the ribbon is shirred to the circular bottom of the case. The cover is made of cardboard covered with ribbon and should just fit over the top of the case. A fluffy powder puff and little face powder will com plete the pretty gift.
 The manicure cases are a trifie more ambitious, but they also may be made of ribbon-covered cardboard. The larger one is fashioned much like the puff and powder case just described, except that wooden embroidery hoops are used for the upper edge of the case and for the edge of the cover. Pompadour ribbon, shirred to the rib bon-covered hoop and to the velvet covered bottom of the case forms the side, end the cover is made of strips of the ribbon which cover the hoop and are drawn up to the centre where the ends are hidden under a bow of narrower rlbbog.

A PumpThat Does Not Slip

~ VEN the best dancers will occa- E- sionally slip on a glassy floor and S-< there are few devotees of the Terpsichorean art who have not at one time or another come cropper in a slippery ballroom to their excess sive modification and perhaps at the cost of bruises or serious strain. New dancing pumps for men have thin sunken discs of rubber in the sole. which. while not hampering the move ment of the foot in the dance. prevent it's slipping in sudden. turn on the slippery floor. These rubber contriv- ances are added only to mems shoes, since the thinness of sole in women's slippers or the pretty buttoned dane ing boots, would make the addition of even wafer like rubber disc im- possible. Upon the masculine dancer. at any rate devolves the responsibility of keeping himself and his partner firmly as well as lightly upon the floor and in an upright position.

Softea Pelts Required for New Swathed Effects
 Fur Wraps and Coats Show Decrease in Length Mole and Seal Lead in 2 .gT Favor for Afternoon Wear:

contrived, the buttons of seal on the leopard pelt having a very effective contrast value in the scheme of the wrap. The big rug-liko sealskin huff with it's inner huff of leopard is also very effective and is a new huff mode that will be sure to have many imi- tations.
 As will be observed, this wrap is draped up in front to show generous amount of the skirt-and one is glad that most of the new wraps have this lifted, Oriental drapery in front, for the new draped skirts are really far too pretty to hide. The seal and leopard wrap is worn with an after noon bridge gown of snuff brown and snuff brown velvet hat in the smart but rather trying English derby shape, though a spreading paradise feather over the crown softens the harsh line of the hat. The silhouette of the figure in this seal coat is very fashionable-that is, it is voluminous at the shoulder line. and narrow at the foot, the loose, graceful draperies tapering downward until the edge of skirt and little buttoned boot tip show ing beneath the gown seem almost out of proportion with the upper part of the figure.
 The striped squirrel wrap has the conventional draped lines of the win ter and a huge, flat huff of the gray and white pelt matches the coat A new fox fur, dyed in the soft gray shade of the squirrel pelt, trims the draped coat all around the edge and on the sleeve. This dainty gray wrap accompanies smoke gray crepe meteor gown for afternoon wear, with boots to match: the buttoned boot tops of smoke colored suede having vamps of patent leather. The hat is of smoke gray velvet with band of Chinese blue embroidery caught under a steel buckle.
 The Afternoon Evening Wrap Of
 Fur.
 It is really economy, some women protest, to buy a handsome wrap of fur, since 1t may be used as an even- ing wrap over light gowns as well as an afternoon wrap with bridge and calling costumes, thus doing away with the necessity for two or three separate evening and afternoon wraps of satin, velvet or similar material. Sealslxin, mole and mink are the belts usually selected for these afternoon evening wraps and of course the style of the wrap is along the Oriental, draped lines which distinguish the carriage wrap from the straighter- lined coat suitable for wear in the street. Sometimes the afternoon wrap has a collar and cuff trimming of

The rows of pins apparently hold the strips of ribbon in place, but the latter must be, sewed neatly by hand in addition, else the sachet powder will escape. The top of the pincushion is decorated with a full bow. or chou, of narrow violet printed Pompadour ribbon and a little cluster of artificial violets Is tucked among the loops. If one has special artistic skill the pattern of violet might be outlined with pins on each panel of the cushion.

cushion is intended, else the gift will probably remain unused. Orris Is popular sachet and Is very delicate. Some women like a little violet mixed with the orris; but heavy scents like heliotrope, rose and sandalwood should be avoided.
 Wee cats and dogs made of black or white satin, with pins for whiskers, make attractive pincushions for little girls bureaus. The tiny doggie or pussy is fashioned from two shaped pieces of satin, joined on the wrong side and turned over. The eyes are small buttons an the whiskers black and white pins. The satin dog or cat sits in a small fancy basket, the -whiskered head just showing above the edge: and bow of ribbon

It is made of white satin with green velvet leaves and stem of wire wound with green ribbon. The cushion part Is soft and should be of cotton rather than of bran in an unyielding muslin cover. The petals of the rose are made of white satin ribbon rolled back oyer pencil and caught invisibly with tiny stitches.
