the earthquake last Wednesday con
tinues slowly and under great difficult

earlier reports of the probable casual
ties, though here and there, despite the
fact that five days have elapsed since
the catastrophe, living victims are be-

Thousands of soldiers and civilians,
including many members of the nobiI-

roads to stricken towns and villages.

FUR TRIMMINGS.

Narrow fur waistcoats are being used
and they are as practical as they are
pleasing. For such purpose, however.
short-haired furs are imperative, like
caracul, ermine, Persian lamb. etc.
Then, there are cloth waistscoats
trimmed with fur. while the general
disposition with one and all is to have
them buttoned or closed right up to the
throat--a truly wise provision, though
one that rather discounts the value Of
the large fur stole. AS a matter of
fact, the latter Is subsiding in value
among women who affect the latest.
which in, this connection takes the
guise of an attached fur trimming to
the coat.
The purveyors Of furs have been COM
PEELED, despite the war, to considerably
readjust their point of view, or per-
haps one should say Of sale. since the
fu.. deleted from the top Of our attire
has to be doubled at the hem of both
coats and skirts. 1t is always open to
question whether the hem of skirts,
anyway for street wear, is exactly ap-
propriate for a bordering of fur: the
lower edge is SO apt to get mixed up
disastrously with the elements off the
ground, and few things look worse
than bedraggled peltry.

The sketch shows one of the best
of the one-piece frocks Of this fabric
made for the exodus south. 1t has
the necessary gayety that should be ex-
pressed in spring clothes because OF
the girdle and the richly embroidered
pockets on the blouse.
1t is one Of those convenient frocks

frock is significant.
The pockets are merely ornamental.
They are the outlet for the color
scheme. Brilliant blue floss is used in
dashing design that quickly catches
the eye of the passerby. The edges OF
the front opening are bound with blue,
and the sash, which is shaped some

end only, which splashes across the
front.
The novelty in design lies in the
pointed sleeve caps Of the embroidery.
This idea is an adaptation of the army
