The Cosey Fur Toque or Cap.
1t may be said that the little fur
toque, or cap, remains the promi-
nent favorite of the winter season.
Many different furs are used for
these fascinating models, some ex-
pensive, others-equally effective
quite moderate in price.
For instance, take an absolutely
delightful set which consisted of a
toque and straight tie in gray squir-
rel. The toque was something be-
tween Russian cap and an ordinary

Yesterday afternoon interviewed
a hat which fifty expressed sweet
simplicity" 1t was untrimmed and
yet exquisite; a coquettish, three
peaked shape in black velvet with a
jam-pot crown covered with old rose
brocade, picked out with silver
threads. OF trimming there was
absolutely none save a small black
velvet bow, which was placed on the
edge of the peak, which covered the
right car, for the hat was worn on
the side of the head.
This was one Of those simple
models which are Sc letimes created

and it fitted we'll down over the hair.
In passing, must mention that such
toque should be worn very much
on the. side of the head.
The tie was simple in detail; a
straight length of fur finished OF
with a fringe of tails which was fas-
tened in a loose knot at one side.
The toque was trimmed with two
rounded butterfly wings made OF
quilted ribbon; one was cherry red
and the other dark gray.
Gray squirrel is very fashionable
this winter, especially for millinery
purposes. Happily, it is compare
lively Inexpensive fur, and one which
looks delightful when worn in con-
junction with a navy blue tailor
made.
Some Of the new velvet toques
have pleated frills which border the
upturned brim. These frills are so
closely pleated that they stand up
without support, and they very often
form the whole trimming OF the
tooue, the. only addition being
handsome plaque or large button in
mother of pearl or cut jet, placed on
the brim at one side.

Beautiful roses are also fashiona-

and most costly models.
Full Skirt Has Not Ousted the Narrow
One.
The out-of-door skirt and the dress
that is meant for late afternoon and
quiet evening wear, which is, in fact,
a kind of modernized tea frock, are
the two toilettes that rank as most
important now.

Doubts may assail some people re-
specting her aim concerning the
much widened skirt. and the news
that a modified crinoline effect has
been seen already may prove dis
quoting. But each individual is a
law unto herself under present cir
cumstances, and as dressmakeis
with the most honored names are
still making fairly narrow skirts,
there is no compulsion in the case.

long basque, made so ample that II

THE latest millinery models Gre
ated by Partisan artists are as
picturesque as they are
lovely.
Nearly all the prominent designs
are becoming and practical This is
not a season in which any woman or
girl of fastidious taste would wear
sensational or eccentric gowns or
hats. What is demanded is some
thing charming and original but at
the same time in perfect taste.
And our Partisan milliners are
proving themselves genuine artists.
They are giving exactly the right
thing-at the right moment.
So far as wide-brimmed hats are
concerned, the canotier, or sailor,
shapes remain first favorites. These
shapes are covered with velvet, Of
toman silk. dull satin and suede cloth.
Some of these models have quite
wide brims; others are of modest di-
mensions; all have rather low, domed
crowns.
One particularly smart model
which attracted me day or two ago
was made of black velvet and very
simply trimmed. Lying fiat on the
brim, close TO the front, there was a
cluster Of beautifully made apples,
one deep crimson and the other dull
gold. These apples were framed in
dark green silk leaves. 1t was emf
nenty smart, a hat which would be
worn with the best results on almost
any occasion.
A cluster OF waxen water lilies
would make an equally effective
trimming for a hat of this order; or
even large and beautiful rose.
Canotier for Everyday Wear.
have lately seen some particular
ly smart hats intended for everyday
wear. These were of the modified
osnotier type covered with soft,
waterproof suede skin. The trim
ming, which consisted of jaunty
bows and loops, was Of the same ma
terial, and the color OF the model l
have in my mind was a clear khaki.
Some OF the leading Parisian tailors
are making beautiful and eminently
useful coats and skirts in the same
material, rain-proofed. With such
costumes the hat JUST mentioned
f. would be exactly the correct thing.
II is in the millinery world that
one realizes to the full the hold that
kney furs have taken on the temi-
ma, imagination. And when | say
'isncy furs" 1 mean unexpected, and
very often quite inexpensive, pelts'
civet cat. for example, is one OF the
most popular furs OF the year, and
now we are turning our attention to
monkey skins and rabbit, dyed pale
rose and egg-shell blue.
Some of the new sets made OF
monkey fur are really charming
This fur is sometimes long and rather
struggling, but sometimes IT IS pre-
pared in such a clever way that II
locks soft and fluffy. A fascinating
set. which ineluoed cravst and tur-
ban toque. was made OF very dark
gray monkey fur and mirror velvet
IN rich shade OF prune.
The crayat was short and one OF
the ends was finished with length
OF prune velvet, which was carelessly
knotted. The brim OF the toque was
covered with velvet and the crown
was made Of fur, while at one side
there was jsunty bow of velvet,
which dropped over the face. ] have
seen similar sets OF ciyet cat and
sapphire blue mirror velvet.
In Paris one can get wonderfully
good imitation OF eivet cat at a res-
sonsble price; in fact. this imitation

de Regre VelUet toque, NTH 6toS-
soming. Of 9ros-grain pleatings at
top.
The Dutch bonnet in velvet and fur
is one OF the novelties Of the winter
season. 1t is exceedingly quaint,
and to young and pretty faces is
very becoming. This Dutch bonnet
shape was brought into fashion lit
tie time ago by well known Paris
ian actress who adopted it for motor
wear. She had several of these pict-
uresque bonnets made OF water
proof silk, in pastel colors, and very
charming they looked when drawn
close over the hair.
The shape is now being copied IN
velvet, and bands of fur are intro
duced round the lew crown. When
the Dutch bonnet is correctly worn
no fringe is visible on the forehead.
Dark Blue, Prune, Purple, Are Favorite
Colors.
For velvet hats and toques the
most fashionable and popular colors
are dark blue, prune and purple.
Black velvet is also very much worn,
but some OF the newest millinery
models are expressed in rich, dull
blue or purple.
The new shades have no tinge OF
green in them. They are dark sap
phire in tint or deep cobalt, and all
the new purple shades are pure Car
violet. One OF the smartest toques
/ have seen lately was made of deep
violet velvet, black monkey fur and
a large market bunch OF Car violets,
in the middle of which there was
stalk OF scarlet jsponica. The fur
was curiously introduced in this
toque; it fell over the brim like a
struggling fringe. When veil was
added the fur. naturally, was held in
place, but the effect was curious
when the little toque was in the
hand.
A pretty and inexpensive trimming
for toques or velvet sailor hats is
high, thin wing covered with rides
cent paillettes. When blue and
green paillettes are used, these wings
are wonderfully effective, and form
a complete trimming for a velvet
hat. The paillettes are in some
cases tiny and carefully applied in
fish-scale fashion, and then the wing
looks as if it were covered with tiny
feathers. have seen wings COW
cred with small jet paillettes applied

oellent results. ---

A Tonic For the Nerves

Nervous people who have not vet
developed a disease that can be rec
ognized and treated by the medical
profession have the greatest trouble
in finding relief. Irritation, headaches
sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia. ali
these discomforts make life miserable
but are endured rather than run doc
tors bill without definite hope of re-
covery.
Every such sufferer should know
the danger of such a condition of the
nervous system. Nervous debility and
even paralysis may easily result if
the tone of the nerves Is not restored.
The one big fact that brings hope
and relief is that the nerves can be
restored by building up the blood. 1t
cannot be too often repeated that only
through the blood can nourishment
and medicine reach the nerves. DR..
williams Pink Pills make the blood
rich and red and quickly restore vi
tality and energy to O weak nervous
system. A nervous person who gives
these pills q trial is almost certain to
see good results and, what Is more.
the benefit will be lasting because the
trouble is attacked at it's root. Thin
blood makes weak nerves. Building up
the blood restores the nerve force.
