rTVHE women of America look TO
the New Yorker for new folds
in hair dressing as to new FOLDS
in, other departments of womens
styles. They say that In Paris the
manner of making the head egg
shaped by turning in the ends and
Fastening the heap high on the crown
b,s disappearing to give place to some
thing that resembles a waterfall. Also
over there the women are celebrating
bt,4e return of lost provinces by adopt
Ing the Alsatian bow as effected by
the once German peasantry. AT the
recent dress parade in parlors of
scouturiers for the benefit OF foreign
buyers some of the mannequins wore
the immense bow perched on the back
OF the head, the "bcnnet d'Alsace" OF
black and in gauze or some thin ma
ternal.
The dressing of the hair In America
is as diversified as styles for costumes,
and It Is probable that the New Yorker
will continue to wear her tresses high,
slightly waved. The horns" over the
ears-a mode beloved by young girls
Is sure to desert them before many
months. It was picturesque ara
rather interesting, but like all such
things has been done to death. In Its
place the hair will be lifted back on
top Of the ears-not fiat, but to make
a pretty little curve at the corner, and
the curve will not be as pronounced
as II was when first introduced three
or four years ago. Coiffeurs are
authority for this and they say as
well that the hair which has been
reached back plain from the forehead
will this season be banged straight
and short across the brow in contrast
with the waved mass.
From the looks of things we are re-
turning to the straw blond beauty Of
generation ago. The most admired
heads, IL the hair be light, are in that
delicately yellow tint that most re-
sembles straw, and not seasoned
straw either. but that which is young
and fresh and only few nuances this
side of cream. For some reason or
other these straw colors appear trans
parent, no doubt from the chemicals.
and you may be sure chemicals do the
work, for no natural color in hair ever
got to such hue unless in very young
children or albinos. HE who runs
may read" that the strands are doc
tored that color II worn by a lady;
and the lady has no doubt decided that
as long as she's going to invest in
dye she might as well get something
beautiful. The straw is beautiful, and
while II hardens a bit the face It does
so less than the mahogany and carrot
that have been with US SO long.

have been better to have called It
lemon yellow and thus to have avoided
the ambiguity that was bound to
occur.
And how many people, when they
read about capucine, the color, or
rather the series OF colors that are so
fashionable in France and that are 80
dominant in much French autumn
millinery, know just what capucine Is
and why 1t 10 80 called? Perhaps you
have a vague idea that capucine Is a
sort of orange color and that is as
far as your curiosity leads you, for you
have forgot since your school days
that capucine is the word the French
use for nasturtiums. AS a matter OF
fact, this word was applied to the whole
series of oranges, reds and yellows that
are suggestive of this brilliant summer
flower. and the word was applied to the
flower because of the fact that its
petals form a part OF pointed hood sug-
gestive of that worn by the Capucine
nuns who, OF course, were named be-
cause OF the hood they wore.

always attractive, but 1t has its good
points. The evening and bedroom
slipper show that all the craft of the
artist has been bestowed there, since
they are seductive to last degree
and as to style, there are a hundred
different models for evening to choose
from, one prettler than the other. The
high heel, the long vamp, the rhine
stone buckle on the black satin slipper,
this is the most beautiful Of the lot
and tho II has been modish for years,
still leads.
All the high shoes for winter have
not yet arrived, but from the recent
indications the very long vamp is on
the wane to be replaced by one
rounder-toed and naturally less point
cd. The long vamp was never pretty
and the reverse of comfortable, and
moreover It increased the length OF
the foot and all these good reasons
make the women mighty glad the
death knell has sounded. I believe
that buttoned shoes will replace laced,
too, when things become normal and
people can have what they like. The
lace shoe lacks elegance, 1t takes long
to fasten, the rain gets inside the
tongue, likewise the snow, and with
the laces becoming shabby or dusty or
torn, a womans attention must be con-
tinually directed to her footgear. The
colored tops of shoes-gray, tan and
trown--they are repeated as much as
last season, and the new ones are OF
patent leather vamp, black. while the
tops are of colored soft kid. The but
ton ones have the buttons Of dark pearl
with a tiny brass nail head in the

WHEN YOU BUY GLOVES.

w THEN you go to buy gloves take
w a fat purse with you. for
gloves are painfully dear. and
there Is no use shopping around" for
them. You won't find any worth buy
ing at prices such as used to prevail.
However, you need not buy kid gloves
even for cold weather wear. There are
splendid fabric gloves at prices about
like those we used to pay for kid
gloves and these will do through the
autumn, and If you carry a muff they
will be warm enough for cold weather
There is a prevailing opinion that
muffs are not going to be so much in
favor this year. Last winter was very
mild in New York and other fashion
centres, and for that reason many
women who might have bought NUNS
refrained from so doing. And perhaps
that is why the opinion is that muffs
are rather out Of fashion. But just let
a cold winter come, and farmers say it
lis going to be, and you will see how
quickly muffs return to favor.
There is something rather nice in
the fashion Of wearing silk or cotton
fabric gloves with a muff. The lining
OF the muf naturally becomes slightly,
or more than slightly. soiled; there
fore there is an advantage in having a
covering between the lining Of the
mcfr and your hands that may be
readily washed.
. There are some excellent street silk
, gloves. Usually you know the silk
slove season is dead when cold
weather comes. but not so this year
. These heavy silk gloves. which are
not at all inexpensive, by the way, are
specially made for autumn and winter.

TH HE winter now near by promises
to be a great one for sport and
Il relaxation of every sort, and re-
alizing the demand for cloths not only
for outdoor events but for evening and
house functions the makers In every
department Of woman's wear have
prepared for the commands. People
have been quiet since America entered
the war and even before and now that
soldiers are back and life has taken
on it's normal activity young folks will
dance, golf. auto. skate. sleigh ride,
in fact sports will have a new birth.
One reason for this is because the
whole army has grown to love the
out of doors and the stimulation pure
air brings and consequently soldiers
have grown keen to practices that
keep them in the open. Young men
demand this kind of thing, and the
young ladies will and, indeed, already
are joining them.
Shoes of every description are Of
fered from the most fragile Of bed
room slippers, sans heel. to the heavy
walking shoe and rain proof golf shoe.
There is no difference in the style of
this year and last. The exactions put
upon shoemakers by the Government
is not yet lifted and the maker still
has his hands tied to some extent yet
there are beautiful shoes to be found
There are almost no buttoned shoes
and the shoe that is more than plain
is the one most recommended to
reasonable buyers.

buff and peach, so you see that
colors verging on pink are preferred.
Some good examples also in tan are
introduced for winter, and these will
be both useful and economic. Wo-
men are again getting back at the
laundress with the new wares in un-
derwear from the fact that the color
ed pieces do not require Tubing so
often, and are SO easily done that
they may be laundered at home.

They are formed after documentary
garments, garnered from the ar

craftsmen have dyed and embroid-
cred the lingerie religiously after the
rules set forth In the files, and they
express in a most esthetic manner
the subtle mystery Of India and have
decided note of distinction. The
figures embroidered are not what
generally accompanies lingerie,

Fur Supply More
Bountiful Than Ever

n T OW that the fur sale for the
l Y worlds buyers has come to
America, our furriers can af-
ford to get their skins first hand, and
that is what they have done. Never
have stores been so bountifully sup
piled and that is true as to number
and variety. All standard skins are
to be worn, and almost the only ones
we do not see are the Alaskan seal
and Russian sable. However, others
are 80 attractive and so we'll made up
that the ultra-expensive ones are not
missed. All dark skins are fashion,
able-skunk. caracul. Kollnsky. Hud-
con sealstone marten, astrachan, and
with these are Scotch mole, mink,
fitch, blue and silver fox, some chin
chilla, some ermine. To the dark fur
the trimmers have taken to putting
gorgeous Satins as Innings, and one
becomes the other and seems to add
to the value
A happy innovation is that of using
the paw of the animal instead of the
head. This is very cunning and
makes a nice finish. AS the latest
decree is that edges of furs must be
ragged, the paw does this well. As
already remarked. the fur garments
are voluminous and some carry out
those worn half century ago,-of
high, narrow shoulders and broad
about the hem. For neck pieces we
see both the padded and plain skin.
A great deal depends upon the
size or shape OF skin as to how the
fur shall be made. Stoles are as
handsome as ever and as modish. A
fine fur is like a raro jewel, one TO
be handed down from mother to
daughter, and so the best furriers
keep the skin in it's original form as
long as possible, The "muff cantine"
