Like so many of the garments made
FOR this winter, it looks like COM
binatiOn Of two styles, and one Is
liable to look twice before deciding
whether 1t is an afternoon frock that
resembles a suit, or suit that wishes
to play the part Of frock. Anyway,
1t is handsome and trimmed with q
bit of fur in collar and sleeve bands.
1t is made Of paon velvet and in black
or dark colOrs.
The figure at the right displays q
suit pure and simple Of velours, with
collar and cuffs of Hudson seal. The
coat has a paneled back making place
for handsome hand embroidery and
the narrow belt is enriched with a
little work of the same kind. Buttons
in precise rows at each side, hardly
needed, nevertheless are there, lend.

least and that velvet will run close

novelty. One of them is fiattened

the other lies across the back. Pansies

millinery they are certainly successful.
Fashion has set Its tickle heart upon
fuzzy effects-fong-napped beavers,
furs, fur fabrics, felts, feathers, plush

there are velvets and feathers in the

known them, and ostrich plumes as

The young woman who chooses to
fav4r the fuzzy styles may indicate
her taste with small hat like that

It is turban with its coronet covered
with bits Of feathers with flues un-

TOP crown is an inconspicuous circu-

shrinks from attracting attention. It

served happy salad. The apple was
peeled and cored, then cut in thin
rings and dropped in cold water with
little vinegar; this keeps the apple
from turning brown. The cucumber
was chopped or cut In fine cubes;
and one small onion was also cut In
the same manner. The slices of ap-
pie was .heaped with the onion and
cucumber mixture, which had been
well seasoned and mixed with salad

William E. Dulin and John W. Hur-
ley were among the week enders on
the river at Fletcher's. Bloodworms had
reached the city the day before, for the
first time this season, and the two
sportsmen had supply of that bait.
They also patronized the boys who had
dug ang1eworms, and tried their luck
with both kinds.
Perch were SO plentiful" said Hur-
ley. "that they did not seem to take
time to chose between the two kinds of
worms. and the result was that we
caught all the fish we wanted and
more"
What the veteran sportsman meant
by more was explained by his COM
panion.
HE meant a poison catfish and two
cells about the size of a lead pencil"
said Dulin. 1.-The only varieties other
than white perch that were caught"
1t was a common occurrence for the
duSl6Tb u CdlCH Two poTCH 81 d

about 200.
It is reported that several rockfish
were caught above Aqueduct bridge
this week. Hardheads have been in the
local market the past three or more
weeks, and anglers think they soon will
appear in the Patuxent, near Benedict
and the Wicomico, near Rock Point.
Benjamin Harding and C. E. Heard
were among those who were on the
river the week end. They fished the
river from Fletcher's almost to Chain
bridge, stopping in the ''parlor" and
other favorite spots, and caught more
than a hundred perch.
