DreSSy Coats of Fur.

Moles and muskrats may become cX-
tinct if fashion continues to demand
their pelts for all sorts of fur gar
ments. Under the marvellous manipu-
latiOn of furriers, muskrat becomes
Hudson seal, and it is as beautiful as
Alaskan seal for coats and scarfs and
muffs. 1t is hard for an expert to tell
the difference between them, when
muskrat is dyed in the best possible
manner, unless he can examine the
fur at close range.
Moleskin does not masquerade un-
der an assumed name, and does not
need to. SO many little pelts are need
ed for even a small garment that the
mere work Of matching and sewing
them together makes an expensive un-
dertaking. Both furs are soft and Pill

Colonel Posey remained indefinitely
In Louisiana, and David was still In

emporium and started down the street

of Cranmer's comrade came sharply

Fans From Far Japan.

AS Christmas draws near, unique
and lovely fans are unfurled in the
shops in increasing numbers. Some
of them are works of art-at prices
high enough to give one heart failure,
and some of them are works of art
moderately priced. There are the
usual dainty satin and gauze fans,
flashing many spangles, fans of rich
lace, gorgeous peacock-feather fans,
and those of splendid ostrich. And
there are many painted satin fans. II
is easy to see why they are of neces-
Sity high priced.
But there are fans that vie with
far more costly ones in beauty, and
three Of them are shown in the accom-
panying illustration. They are con-
tributed by the clever people in the far
East, who know how to do so much
with such simple materials. We are
indebted to far Japan for the beauti-
fully colored fans with lacquered
sticks which are ornamented with
such widely different characters, OBJ
viously with an eye to pleasing us. On
one of these fans we behold the light
hearted Pierrot in a savage attitude. He
is about to shoot an arrow somewhere.
We are left TO ponder whether he is
aiming at the heart of an enemy or at
an American pocketbook.
on a small fan of unusual shape we
may infer that some sympathetic
Japanese artist has taken theme
from one of our own songs. An i'm
passioned little lady seems to be bid
ding an endless farewell to "The Last
Rose of Summer" There is a huge
vase near by, big enough to hold all
the petals of dear. departed roses.

nature that makes the who're world
kin. A discriminating lover offers to
an Indifferent lady fair a bunch of

Japanese Embroidery,

The japanese are sending us some
beautiful hand-embroidered materials
which are being made up into lingerie.
Perhaps the most striking examples
are the white silk pajama sets for
women. The jackets are beautifully
embroidered in grapes and leaves,
cherry blossoms and chrysanthemum
blossoms, in the daintiest of colors.
and delicate pink lotus blooms. The
prices for the garments are gagged by
the amount of handwork upon them.
They may be had in delicate colors, as
we'll as in plain white. There is also
the short kimono, embroidered in the
usual designs on white, pink and blue
grounds.

Homemade Bath Sponge.

Here is a small economy for clean
illness and comfort in the bath, says
Popular Science Monthly. AS is well
known. large sponges soon break up
and become useless, and again they
are subject to being clogged up by inns
purities which are now recognized to
be due to microbe growth within the
sponge. This is difficult to remedy
in the case of large sponge. A new
idea is to assemble small pieces OF
sponge in n bag so as TO give about
the same shape as an original large
sponge. The bag can he made of Turk
ish toweling or any suitable material.
Thus all small pieces of sponge can be-
utilized and can be kept clean easily.
