A MONO the great number of plait- "A ed skirts made of plaid and striped material, an occasional plain skirt and an even more occasional model without plaits, will be sure to seize the attention. And, although the vogue is overwhelmingly for plaits and for plaids, there are some hand some models that are not acquainted with either of these. Without apolo- gies they present themselves for com parison among their numerous plait- ed sisterhOod and usually we perceive that they belong to the aristocracy of skirts.
 The skirt at the left is innocent of plaits and is made of taupe colored wool jersey in a fine quality. It could hardly be simpler, being straight and gathered in at the waist line. It has a deep hem headed with a flat fold Starting at this fold and ex- tending almost to the waist line large almost fiat buttons covered with mole skin are set at the end of simulated buttonholes.

 A fashion is inclined to be tolerant so far as styles in fur garments are concerned. For furs are furs these days-as a diamond is a diamond they are bringing startllngly high prices. It does not appear that they are destined to become cheaper unless something happens to lessen the de- mand, and high prices have failed to do that. Therefore a fur piece of any description is a possession to be treas ured and everything is worn from the smallest of chokers that fasten close up about the throat to long and ample dolmans and coats whose prices are stated in five figures.
 Scarfs hold the lead in the smaller fur garments and they are either straight or shaped and may be long or short Anyone fortunate. enough to own one as generous in size as that shown in the picture can wish for nothing more splendid It is a hand some kolinsky embellished with claws and small tails, lined with crepe-de- chine and provided with pockets at the ends.

 There was no doubt in my mind that the quavering little rascal of q lawyer with his precise way and timid but controlling unscrupJNousness had come to the end of his road-and at the very moment when he had sue cess in his hand. There was no req son to doubt that the woman was the midnight stealing down the stairs from Jed's room with MT Sidney's diary.
 But if we were rid of the timorous, grasping little attorney, we were in worse difficulties. With the attorney and his Spanish client, we at least knew the manner of dealing. It was disconcerting-I might almost be for given the exaggeration of saying it was horrifying-to consider that the diary was being handled by con- stable, a sheriff or coroner or even by any idler or resort-keeper in the village of Norwich.

 I went to the White Owl and on en- tering the barroom, which really had an attractive rather than a disreputa- ble appearance, saw a group of men about a short, broad, square-shoul- dered fellow who was talking to the interest of half dozen or more fel- lows.
