for spring and early autumn.
Crepe de chine, thin velvet, heavy
chiffon cloth, taffeta, faille, heavy sat-

include silk jersey, may be considered

The American designers who have
chosen these materials in various pat

may not have much peltry in a few
months, as there are few trappers left
and not enough men to prepare the
skins. Y
Bands Of peltry are used on hens of
skirts, high collars and gauntlet cuffs
are cut I'm shapely fashion, but there
is a perceptible glimmer Of economy
wherever fur is added to thin ma
terial to give 1t a seasonable ap-
pearance.
Use for Leftover Pieces.
It is well that the amateur in clothes
be warned ahead of time of this prob
able scarcity Of peltry, in order that
she may use at this strictest valuation
the bits of fur she has In her pos
session.
All along the line one sees conserva-
tion Of wool In the new American
clothes, and a more lavish display Of
wool In the sketches that are coming
over from the French openings. It Is
difficult to amalgamate these two con-
ditions, but we are told that the
French use a great deal Of imitation
wool ard touch It up with semi
precious furs, SO that the government
is in no manner defrauded of an inch
of fabric that 1t needs.
some Of the French materials that
initiate wool are quite cumbersome, yet
and offered as the smart thing in this
country. They are soft to handle and
not weighty to wear, and It Is quite
probable that women win like them
better than thin material, which looks
cold.
The economical woman Is inclined
to buy an autumn gown that can serve
on the street under protective cover

hope Of Its lasting In good condition
until next spring. She realizes that q
top coat is necessary. and she knows
that fur coats will be In high fashion
as long as they hold out in the mar

duct an inquest, found the poison in
a drawer to which the woman is said
to have pointed as she was dying.
This substance, together with the Wis
