Nine. Fashion cannot find place
enough to put it.
Just from Paris comes a suit of
sandcolor brOadcloth and the VERY
high collar is black fox. The coat by
the way is almost knee length, and
that will be the correct length for
the smart cold weather coat.
The fur cape collar-the quaint
Louis XIV collar that stands stiffiy
out from the shoulders, seems to
have captured the favor of the deal
ers, but for every cape collar you
see, you will be sure to see a long
fur stole.
These are the furs We'll be wear

and black; skunk; Kolinsky; the
everlasting mole looms up again, and
Hudson seal will be fashions head
