Scarfs.

Scarfs.
Already there are indications that
scarfs will be an accredited part Of
next winters suits-that is, wide
scarfs that are wrapped around the
neck as a part Of the suit. We had
some of these scarfs last winter,
sometimes coming from only one part
Of the coat collar and wrapping well
around the throat. Sometimes, too,
they were the ends Of skating cap
that were wrapped, scarflike, around
the throat. In the new suits they are
sometimes separate, but Of the same
material, and sold as a part of the
frock. Sometimes they are fastened
to the coat, under the collar.

that at sixty-nine Smith should fall
from the ladders top!"
"But wasn't there woman at the

could cast off the drudgery Of her

crowded car which is to take her to
her drab and uninteresting home,

the magnificent limousine which has
just slid up to the curb on the far side

dancing-eyed, light-foOted things!
Such is the resiliency Of youth that
in spite Of the long, tiresome hours of
toll behind them, they troop out and
along the street with a joyous aban-
don.
