 The furs illustrated to-day all come under the classification of the smaller varieties. although most of them are of very generous propor- tions.
 Fur wraps and coats for the com- ing winter are particularly inter- esting not only because of their beauty but because of the diversity of design shown. No longer are we pinned to any particular type as we were last winter. when most fash ionable fur coats were of definite type with only slight variations. Fur Goats Take

Diversity of Design
 In New Fur Wraps

THERE is almost no use that is
 not made of this popular fur. Cheruit has just made a half long dolman wrap with band of this fur at least twelve inches wide passing closely around the figure at the lower edge of the half length dol man. Full-length coats in black duvetyn have deep borders of monkey fur. Thus, from the mar rowest fringes to the deepest bor- ders this fur is equally popular.
 In millinery there has been found nothing to replace it. With aigrettc and Paradise forbidden entry to the United States, the best substitute is the monkey fur In the form of fringe

ming great faith to caracul for this winter. They are showing many garments made of this fur. Smart combinations, such as caracul for the coat itself with gray fox forming wide cuffs and deep collar, are seen in coats.
 Capes of taupe caracul are most effectively trimmed with bands of mink or kolinsky, and even cloth, es- pecially duvetyn, is used in combina- tion with this fur. of which so much is expected for this coming winter.
 One maker shows circular cape of taupe caracul fitting snugly at the shoulders in which pretty color contrast is achieved by inserted panels of black duvetyn which are wide at the bottom of the cape and taper to points at the neckline.

matching the lining of the coat. Wide Latitude in
 Choice of Collars
 THE becomingness of fur coat
 or any sort of fur wrap, for that matter, depends greatly on the collar. Many a handsome garment IS quite spoiled, so far as it's indi- vidual wearer is concerned, by an unsuitable collar.
 There is no occasion to be ham pered in ones choice this season by any such difficulty, for there are collars of many types-high muf- fling collars, round collars on the or der of the Peter Pan. these latter being an outcome of models shown at the Paris openings; long stole like collars, and those of the old-time shawl variety.

could not be worn under any coat not having sleeves of equally ample proportions.
 The use of the Mandarin type of sleeve gives an opportunity for the introduction of novel trimming notes hitherto unused on furs. For in- stance, coat recently imported by one of our prominent American firms is made on very slender lines, giving almost the lead pencil sil- houetts. IVY

 There is as much to be said against it as in it's favor. It is very beautiful and graceful, it is true. but an extravagant and somewhat impractical wrap for daytime wear.
 The long fur coat has been re- ceiving much attention this season and is now distinguished by snug fitting lines and Mandarin sleeves. The long flowing sleeve is one of the most important notes in wraps and will be much used because of the wide, full length dress sleeves, which

Again the Blouse

VA VA / Al IL IAlC dppIOdCn Ol 1dl NA/ and the return of the
 " suit to favor, the stage is
 once more set for the popular entrance of blouses, which have arrived in an infinite variety, apparently the result of several sea- sons of pent up energy on the part of their creators.
 Many of the new blouses show . marked tendency toward greatly in. creased length--a tendency doubtless brought about by the introduction of the three-quarters length sun jacket.
 To the woman returning to town this autumn to look over the recent imports before deciding what she will buy for her winter wardrobe, the bIouses that extend to the very bottom of the skirt will come as . surprise. This does not mean to the hem of the very abbreviated skirt that still share with prohibition the honors of being the most popular subject of conversation, but ths heightened skirt as advocated by the Parisienne dressmaker.
 There Is no gainsaying the fact that blouses of this type have more grace than the shorter models. but just what reception the American woman will accord this style is a question.
 The Long Blouse
 Bids for Popularity
 TT IS quite safe to predict, however,
 that little later on in the sea son we shall see the tunic type of blouse, which when worn with a matching skirt will form an attrac- tive dress. This is rather versa tile idea, for with the changing of one's blouse a smart costume is evolved at much smaller expense than an entire dress would other wise incur.
 Much time and thought are being expended on sleeves, which generally are of greater width and often in contrasting colors. The widening of sleeves is made possible by the new coats and suit jackets, which, wheth- CT long or only of waistline length, feature voluminous sleeves. In some instances the sleeves ara SO wide at the top as well as at the bottom that the under arm seam ap- pears to start from tho waistline. This is very exaggerated, of course, but nevertheless an indication that we may expect not only width in sleeves, but that the arm covering of blouses as well as dresses will be of huge proportions.
 A certain brotherhood appears to have sprung up between blouse and suit creators this fall which has TO- suited in the blouse usually being the complement of the suit. Apparently the vogue of the blouse follows close ly that of the suit. This latter tendency is evidenced by close ad- herence to suit colors in the moro recent blouses. At the Paris openings many of tho suits shown were accom- panied by matching blouses of creps ! de chine, some of which were em- broidered with chenille.

Autumn Furs

' A new fur pieces for autumn
 are very beautiful, and in them all is seen the continued ten dency to treat furs as fabrics. In the small furs this is more apparent ehan ever before.
 These so-called small furs have been rapidly increasing in size until this season they bid fair to be ex- tremely large. Many of them in scarf effect are of sable, mink, kolin- sky, petit gris, which IS Siberian squirrel. ermine, caracul and Hud- son seal.
 As separate neckpiece silver and blue fox skins, almost in their natu- ral state, again will be much worn. Pekan or fisher also continues to be very fashionable and is mounted in sets of one, two and three skins forming straight scarf effects or ar- ranged after the style of sable skins to make large pieces.
 Dyed fox is in great demand in shades of dark gray, and there is, of course, always demand for the imitation silver fox; that is, the dyed black fox pointed with badger. Rab- bit dyed in soft gray shades is an other substitute for more expensive furs and bids fair to be in great favor.
 Paris Awaits Successor
 To Monkey Fur
 FOR the last three or four seasons
 the Paris dressmaker has at tempted to launch some sort of nov city in cheap pelt. Two years ago It was the Tibet goat or Mongolie. This fur, when made in fringe style, was a good imitation of monkey fur, but 1t was not success.
 Owing to it's fragility its vogue was short-lived, for it proved moro expensive in the long run than the real fur. Last year there was con- siderable interest in agnela, a manu- factured material initiating fur. This looked exactly like dyed sheep skin or lambs wool.
 One awaits with interest the 1922 novelty and wonders if it will be anything that can replace monkey, which, while no longer novelty, has come back with added emphasis, it being one of the most popular furs of the present as we'll as the past season.
 Throughout the summer monkey fur was used in every possible way, even as trimming for organdic dresses, and crepe cape that had not a monkey fur fringe trimming was outside the pale of fashion. The Simian Pelt
 As Fringe
 WHERE all the monkey fur
 comes from is cause for won- derment. Surely the poor little simi- ans must have been slaughtered by the thousands to supply the demands < of fashion. One recalls the number less predictions that monkey fur would bc an ephemeral fashion, but thus far it has outlasted many sea- sons and is much more sought to-day than ever.
 One of the curious ways in which 1. is being used is as fringe, top and bottom, on fur neck piece, in the form of choker band made of fox oi skunk, the long fringe of the mon- key fur hanging over the top of this collar band. Tho effect is quite startling when the monkey fur is used in pure white over strikingly contrasting fur band.
 The Hindustani collar, which is that with sort of hump roll at the back. is particularly interesting when developed in monkey fur. This fur lends its slinky, graceful lines well to the rounding edge of this sew collar.

FEEDING BARLEY TO HORSES
kssuits Obtained In Experiments With
Eight Psrehsron Mares on
Government Farm.

A test to compare the relative
value Of light and heavy weight bar
ley az feeds for teamwork horses was
made last year by the United States
Department Of Agriculture. at the ex-
Detrimental. farm, Beltsville, Nd.
Eight Percheron mares were used
10 the test. two receiving lightweight
barley two heavyweight barley, and
four receiving oats as q check. The
test was continued ~ weeks. The
mares were used In all the routine
work Of the farm, which included the
heavy feld work Of blowing. etc, dur
ing the spring months. The barley
used was the commercial grade of
heavy barley (roiled) and light bar
Icy (tblied). the heavy barley weigh
ing A7!6 and the light 40.7 pounds to
the bushel. according to the tested
weights determined by grain investi-
satiohs, bureau Of markets. The rela-
tive gains or losses in weights of the
mares fei on barley and those fed
sn oats were practically the same, and
there was no indication that either
feed possessed outstanding merit ever
the other.
The weights of the mares fed on
light barley remained more constant
than the weights of the mares fed on
heavy barley. and the former seemed
to be- slightly more thrifty than the
latter; although the advantage seemed
slight.

ANTI SUICIDE BUREAU.

For the past thirteen years The Sal.
walton Army has waged an active war
against suicide.
The Anti Suicide Bureau was estab.
lished in London when the great sui
cidal mania swept through England
and in few months this little refuge
for the desperate and life weary
had raised 1125 men and 80 women.
From that time on the Salvation
Army has found definite field Of
work in supplying the friendless with
friends, the heart-broken with comfort,
the bewildered and helpless with a
guide, those Historically maddened by
folly with a calming influence that
would steady them.
Overwork, i'll health, disappointment
In love, infidelity Of husband or wife,
sudden bereavement, drink, drugs and
crime as well as mental weakness and
melancholia are many Of the numerous
causes that lead people to think SER
iously upon discriminating life.
Four-fifths Of the people with melan.
cholia have suicidal tendencies and
two-thirds Of them actually attempt It,
1t Is a curious fact that 1t Is seldom
among the underworld or lower classes
that suicide is frequent, but is mainly
among clergymen. doctors. actors,
financiers, journalists, politicians,
chemists, architects, schoolmasters,
bank clerks, and tradesmen.

Japan STIRRED UP By
GREAT OPIUM SCANDAL
Public Officials and Prominent
Business Men Are Charged
With Illegal Operations.

officials Is charged by the Nichinichi,
which alleges that large quantities OK
the drug have been Illegally handled
IN southern Manchuria by the CONN.,
vance Of government officials for the
purpose of enriching their own
pockets.
The allegations are denied by Mr..
Nakano chief Of the civil administra-
ton bureau In Darien.
Millions Of yen worth of the drug
has passed through Kwantung during
the last few years, says the Nichinichl,
of which only small part has Deen
burned by the government authorities.
That which was burned Is alleged to
have been opium Of inferior quality,
mixed with other substances before
being destroyed.
Since April, 1918, the sale Of opium
has been conducted directly by the
civil administration bureau In barren,
it is said. The Okuma ministry dis
covered this and forced the profits TO
be turned into the governments COZ

enue, the Nichinichi goes on to ex-
plain. but when the Selyukal party
came into power after the Teraucm
ministry, this revenue decreased to
minimum. the explanation given being
thut the decrease was natural because
of the gradual prohibition OF the sale
Of the drug.
As the revenue continued to dwindie
a rumor originated In Darien and Port
Arthur. says the Nichinichi, that local
government officials were conniving
with the Selyukai for the Illegal sale
of opium. whereupon the Darlen au-
thorities, ION the advice Of a certain
high official" publicly announced that
the contiscated opium had not been
resold for private gain, but opium to
the value OF 3,OOO,O0O yen had been
burned, But. charges the Nichinichi,
