THE SEASONS FuRs
Have pistinotivsly New Touchss--The
 1e12-13 MuH-Rslts Which Lead in
 Fashien's Favor--NeveIties at the Opening.


 It may be warm now. but it isn't always going to be, was evidently the way women readers of The Bulletin reasoned Wednesday: for with the mercury at 88 degrees in the shade they were out early to the opening of elegant furs, and some of the eKclu- siYe buyers had made choice Of coat or set almost before their more delib- crate friends had breakfasted.
 First of all glance at the new models convinces one that last year 5 furs will not do! The 1s12-i3 muffs are essentially new, the bed being more elaborate and more conspicuous than ever before. In fact, in some models the fancy fur is so employed as 10 only partially cover the huff end. Even last seasons styles are going to be so far behind the new designs as to to be positively antiquated!
 Then the fur scarfs, vietorines, throws, etc. are as distinetiyeiy new as the muffs. The French. designers have given them new touches. shapes, finish in heads, tails, fringes, combi- nations and ornaments that are most fascinating and different.
 Graceful Goats,
 While the coats are big and com fortable looking, they have nothing of the clumsiness of the old styie models, but fcll7w the prevailing straight line effects as to cut of skirt.
 They are developed in all the most favored pelts, elegantly finished and exquisitely lined.
 Beaver and moleskin take the lead in fur popularity, but Fashion ap- proves Sitka fox, pointed fox, weasel, Japanese cross fox, eastern and Mime sota mink, American red fox, fine quality blue lynx, moline-Which Is French cony shaved closely and dyed . mole gray-raccoon and blue wolf Rich Persian and the popular Persian paw continue good, and for young girls wear there is natural cat and the dainty white Iceland fox.
 Effective Combinations.
 The combinations in coat develop ment are particularly swagger
 One admired design shown Wednes- day was of mink dyed marmot, witn elegant big shawl collar of softest ant richest beaver.
 Beaver was employed again on 6 Very smart model in natural pony. moire pony had long, rolling collar and deep cuffs of handsome north. western beaver.
 El6SduL III 6NeT-- Q6tdu was a COdi of Hudson seal, it's collar and cuffs ol rich Persian lamb. Another in Hud- son seal had a novelty collar of cive- cat, deep cuffs and an effective border of striped Hudson.
 Less expensive, of course, but 2 good design, was a coat of natura Russian pony, smartly finished witt self collar and cuffs. A caracuI coat with skunk collar and cuffs was also a favorite in the moderate priced models.
 Wednesdays sales were surprising l ly big, but the display has lost none O. | it's atrractiveness and the assortment 1 offers rare opportunities for womeI wise enough to realize that the prict 1 of furs is much lower now than it vii | be a month later.
