cording to your furry fancy, and now
it has gone to the other extreme and
appeared as a head band. Quite the
chic-est addition to the evening Golf
fure is a flat circlet of skunk wreath
ing the brow of the debutante or the
matron. A soft crush Of chiffon in
any desired tone combined with it
breaks the rather hard line of the
fur against your head and helps dis
tinguish your own hair from the hair
of the defunct animal
The round balls Of fluffy fur-lille
buttons are charming additions to a
three-piece cloth suit and quite the
only trimming necessary, while the
new pouch bags of velour and plush
are lovely fur banded to match the
costume of the carrier
Beads in all the gariSh colors are
used lavishly in quaint designs as
trimmings on fur turbans. Done into
dragons, birds, beasts and butterflies,
they also adorn the patrician silk-clad
ankles of many a haut monde turkey
trotter.

Bulletin of General Information.
The attention of all owners and
operators of motor vehicles is par
ticularly drawn to the following sec
tions of Chapter 1926, Motor Vehicle
act, the substance of which is as fol-
lows:
Section IL No persons shall op-
crate or drive a motor vehicle on the
public highways of the state unless
such vehicle shall have attached to it
the registration number plates as
signed to it by the Motor Vehicle
division, and these plates must be
spicuously displayed, one on the
front and one on the back of each
vehicle, and they must be securely
fastened and not permitted TO swing,
and at minimum height of Is inches
from the ground No number plate
or seal, other than the one assigned
to it, shall be attached, and failure
to comply with this is a violation of
the law.
The above does not apply to mo-
torcycles, but every motorcycle must
have a number plate, supplied by the
motor vehicle division, securely fast
ened to the rear wheel guard or other
secure position at rear, 50 as to be
plainly visible.
These registration numbers must be
kept clean and distinct 50 that they
may be plainly visible at all times
during daylight, and excepting motor
cycles, under artificial light in the
night time.
Section u. Every motor vehicle
shall be equipped with bell, gong,
horn, whistle or other device in good
working order, and to be used as par
ticularly directed in this section.
Section -. Every motor vehicle
other than motorcycle, while in use,
must carry during the period from
onc-half hour after sunset to one-half
hour before sunrise, and at all times
when fog or other atmospheric con
dtiors render the operation Of We
+ hicles unusually dangerous, at least
two lighted lamps showing white
lights visible under normal atmos-
phcric conditions at least 800 feet
IN the direction toward which said
motor vehicle is proceeding, and shall
also carry al the rear Of each motor
vehicle d lighted lamp exhibiting Ont
red light plainly visible at d distance
of 500 feet toward the rear, and SC
placed that the number carried on tht
rear Of such motor vehicle shall bc
Illuminated by white light in sucf
manner that the number can be plain
ly distinguished under normal atmOs
phcric conditions at distance Of no
less than 80 feet in the reverse di

cecding.

Belinda 5 gown is oyster white,
And biscuit-hued her coat,
With touches of tomato red
About the sleeves and throat.
Her hats of cafe au lait plush,
Whence claret feathers float.
She looks the latest style and sounds
Jus like table d'hote.
New York. Jan. 16.-Nowadays it is
hard to tell from the conversation
whether modists and dressmakers
are talking about the French draSsin 2
on a salad or French dressing on a
lady. Culinary art and sartorial art
are indeed akin and ra > erry con-
fection on fashion rlate Is quite
"s delectable as 1pc on dessert
plate. There seems to be perfect
passion for all the light edible tones
of oyster, biscuit. champagne, cafe au
lait and cream for street costumes.
Combined with dark fur, they are
truly >tunn,ag and a decided relief
frors tha dark-toned blue. brown and
black street suits to which we have
been sc long addicted.
A lovely biscuit duvetyn trimmed
in skunk has . four-inch band of
skunk midway of the skirt to simu-
late a tune and another four-inch
band around the hem. A wide girdle
of old blue moire ribbon eight inches
wide finishes in the back like Jap
anese obi and gives a smart square
effect to the figure.
The coat hangs in a loose sack from
the shoulders in back to well below
the hips In front it is cut short
almost to the bust and buttoned on
the side with four square old blue
buttons. The collar and the cuffs OF
the sleeves are Of skunk. A pale blue
combined with fitch, and a delicate
pink duvetyn with sealskin, while not
so castronomically named, certainly
looks good enough to eat.
This craze for the delicate shades
will no doubt bring JOY to the dry
cleaners heart and much gold to his
Golfer The vivid shades that the fu-
turists brought forth have faded quite
away and indeed the only bright hue
which has the sartorial sanction for
smart street wear is red in every con-
ceivable shade-cherry beet, tomato
raspberry, strawberry and wine to suit
your taste.
The last new use for fur was the
anklet of fitch, ermine or sable, ac-
