Moles and muskrats may become ex-
tnct 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 I'M
der an assumed name, and does not
need to. SO many little pelts are need
mere work of matching and sewing
them together makes an expensive I'M
dertaking. Both furs are soft and pill
able, with rich and beautiful color to
recommend them. MOleskin is short
lived, and is a fur for the rich, but
Hudson seal, in a good grade, repays
the expenditure which 1t requires.
For this winter fashion favors coats
of these skins for dressy wear,
trimmed with long-haired furs. Skunk,
fox, marten and other furs that look
like them, as well as mink and
kolinsky, are used on Hudson seal.
The first three are occasionally used
on moleskin. OF all combinations,
moleslxin and ermine are liked best.

plain cuffs do not match the collar but

Ordinary Eurs Discussed.

1t Is not the fur that counts, say the
couturiers, this season. 1t is the fin
ish, the way the fur is dyed and
treated that renders it smart. And so
consistently is this idea carried out
that it is difficult to recognize we'll
known varieties, according to Vogue.
Rabbit masquerades under all sorts
and some of the furs with long hair
are dyed and figured as strange new
furs. Squirrel is dipped in dye and
energies as new sort of chinchilla
or as some hitherto unheard-of fur
from that land of strange furbearing
animals-Russia. The Preside cat is
even offered up on the altar of fash
ion, and one shudders to think that
ones latest set of marmot may pos
sibly have been the police dog.

Mr.. Brown had scarcely finished his

ominous whistle, which seemed to

distance there was a flash and an ex-

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. 1t
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 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 small fan of unusual shape we
may infer that some sympathetic
Japanese artist has taken a theme
from one of our own songs. An i'm
passioned little lady seems to be bid

vase near by, big enough to hold ali
