FURS INITIATED BY
RICH NEW FABRICS

Winter sees a decided change in tho
style of the newest wraps and stoles
made In furs or fur substitutes Last
year the majority of the stoles were
quite straight in shape, the widths
varying from eight or nine inches to
considerable proportions, but now the
old fashioned pelerine or small cape
promises to be most popular.
Carried out in soft musquash, seal,
coney. ermine or other fur many of
these models are very graceful and
becoming.
shoulder scarfs seen lately were made
! of broadtail or black ponyskin, as
supple and silky as satin, trimmed
with effective touches of taffeta or vel
vet, in some cases with another fur
| introduced around the neck or deco
| rating the ends.
| For those, however, who find these
real furs too costly the new makes
| of ponyskin and broadtail cloth answer
most admirably. These manufactured
furs are such faithful copies of the
real article that in many Instances IL
requires an expert to discriminate be-
tween the two
| Those who require an up-to-date fur
wrap at a moderate cost cannot do bet
ter than copy the real furs in fur cloth
This Is by no means a difficult proceed
| ing, as the fur cloth can be obtained in
wide widths that can readily be draped
| in graceful lines.
! When making up stole in fur ma :
terial it Is as well to add an interim
ing of thin wool wadding, which gives
extra warmth and firmness, this again
being covered with soft satin or thick
| silk.
A smart effect Is given one set by the
little outstanding frill of black velvet
that edges the inner, side of the stole
\ about the shoulders and is again re-
peated as decorative band across the
front of the muff

Special Correspondence Of The star.
NEW YORK, November 1e--It i.
passing strange what Il strong hold the
medieval fashion introduced last
spring has had upon the public
First it was looked upon with sus-
picion. This was early in March
Evening gowns which were nothing
more than satin slips with ornate
chemises over them, girdled with orien-
tai belts at the hips, were introduced
tentatively. and even the best dress
makers were inclined to ignore them
because of their peculiar silhouette.
BY June, SO whimsical is fashion,
that this medieval idea was the key
stone of the arch. All fashion struc-
lures were built upon it, 1t was
probably the most popular fashion in
street clothes that we have seen in
several years.
Today it has grown to such proper
tion, despite the fashion for a wide
destruction. This event is in the
future. however, for at the moment it
rules the output of clothes.
The most liberal use of il is seen
in the strictly medieval dance soMn
which Is used also for the opera and
dinner by debutantes, and by women
who are no longer young. There are
fashionab BILE dreSSmakers who. most un-
kindly, have forced it upon extra stout
women who are at their worst in such
costumes and whose appearance is not
altogether a credit to the leaulng
houses that put their label within the
gown.

FASHIONABLE COLLARS

NEW YORK, November 19.-It is quite
right that women should worry over
the details of fashion, for it is in the
observance of these that one often gets
the credit of being u well dressed WON
an The collar is puzzling, and yet the
collar is a detail that makes or mars
the becomingnesS of q hat or suit
There is no costume so perfect that
can rise above a neck that is badly
covered or uncovered
A woman may pay n hundred dolla RS
for a suit or gown and twenty-five dol
lars for hat, but they fall far short of
admiration and fail in the final result
if the wrong collar is worn at the cos

black and silver for your new evening
gown YOU will not regret the results,
provided. of course, that black is be-
coming to you.
The illustrated model is splendid for
such Il development and represents an
attractive simplicity.
Very plain is the longwaisted bodice,
sleeveless and V necked. 1t Is Joined
to a fiaring tunic under a six or seven
inch band of dull silver lace. The tunic
fits smoothly over the hips. being cut
by circular pattern. A straight line
of velvet-covered ball buttons runs
from the V of the decolletage to the
hem of the tunic in back. A narrow
underskirt of silver lace shows below
the tunic. while a fine chantilly is used
for the gumpe. outlined across the in
sets at the neck and the edge of the
sleeves with tiny cut steel beads
The most practical way to make this
dress is to have the velvet bodice and
tunic in one and separate from the
under part. Use white taffeta or heavy
China silk for a plain princess slip,
to which the silver lace is added at
the bottom and the lace guimpe at the
top. 1t will be very easy way to
make it, and easy to slip into.

Maple Chocolate Fudge.

Maple chocolate fudge is IL delightful
s.veet. To make it put into an iron pot
three and half cups of granuIated
sugar, one-half cup ofJnaple sirup and
cupful of rich milk. In a double boiler
put square and n half of best choco-

melted add it to the other ingredients
and let all cook, stirring constantly.
Test it from time to time by dropping
some off spoon into cold water, and
when it hardens into rather soft balls

melted butter; then take from the fire.
Beat until it begins to harden, then
pour into buttered pans.

The Blouse With the High Neck.

The fashion for high collars came in
suddenly and it could have been ig
nored if summer weather had remained
with us, but the incoming rush of new
winter suits brought out the coat with
it's high neckline that often reached to
the ears, and one had to consider the
collar of the blouse beneath. OF course
the situation is changed and the per-
plexity is much less if one INDUCES in
high fur collar on the street coat. It
matters little then what is beneath, and
the becoming low collar can be left on
the blouse to give it's best effect when
the coat is removed. But there are few
women who wish to depend on this en-
veloping band of peltry; the fashion is
not always comfortable when days are
mild, and il is not every woman who
looks her best in this thick choker that

the ear or the arm.
For these reasons it is wise TO have
one or more blouses that can be de-
pended upon to give q line of white up

or lift her ug1iness into something

chooses it with such genuine consider

that each suit or gown needs.

Still the Open v in Front.

One of the peculiarities of this winter
is the fashion for banding the neck
with fur or fabric so that it is entirely
covered from the ear to the collarbone,
leaving a deep v-shaped wedge open
between the base of the neck and the
first button on the blouse. There is no
denying that it is capricious fashion
and must be taken as evidence that
women are indeed hardy to stand this
constant exposure of their throats.
Radium silk, as well satin, are
used for winter blouses. Chiffon is still
in fashion when built up over lace, and
lace itself is considered quite smart
when built up over flesh pink chiffon.
Dull cream or oyster white satin is
used frequently for the everyday blouse,
but every effort is being directed to-
ward a strong revival of muslin, and
it is probable that fashion and neces-
sity will go hand in hand after the New

Lace and Jewels Combined.
The sumptuous fabrics of the Italian
middle age are not used in these even
ing gowns that are supposed to bear
the imprint of the fifteenth century.
Velvet embroidered with precious
stones and heaped with rich furs is a
bit too cum bersome for woman who
wishes to sandwich fox trot between
the opera and supper, or a young girl
who wishes to give over four hours
to fantastic dancing on crowded
floor.

and satin, possibly with i bit of fur,
and always with barbaric trimming

lace over cloth of gold, q fabric which
is very much in favor this winter, and
which smacks of the fifteenth century,
Though it is fine and light IN weight.
There are jeweled bands at hips and

straps of lace and flesh pink tul1e. The

Butler Boy Wins . Pennant.

Harry r. Ellis, Butler boy now
making his home in Springfield, Mo-,
is visiting his father, Ike Ellis, and
other members of his family here for
a few days. Harry is known among
his intimates as ''Tink, and is pop
ular among the baseball sports. He
lis a professional and has won dis
tinction on the diamond, and his
Butler friends are proud of him.
During the season just closed, he
played in the Union Association in
the west, but recently with the
Waterloo, Iowa, Club in the Central
Association, with which he closed the
season. His brilliant work as left
fielder and at the bat had much to do
with winning the pennant for the
Waterloo Club in the Central Associa-
ton. The Waterloo papers give
Ellis credit for scoring the run that
won the pennant on September 6. He
use to be successful pitcher, but
several years ago he injured his left
arm so that he is disabled as a pitch
er, but at the bat and as a runner and
score maker he is among the best
professional ball players. He says
he does not now know where or with
whom he will play next season.
