declares fashion correspondent In

season after season, and the remark
able thing is that designers cOntrive to

This year certain variation In de-

Of embroidery or the application Of

just as enc sees in the Chinese coats.
1t Is probably by the clever use of
color that navy blue frocks of this
season are distinguished from those Of
last.
In line they are straight and slim.
sometimes tight. but quite as often
bell-shaped. with dainty undersleeves
Of net or muslin.
For practical purposes nothing takes
the place Of dark blue gown. and
with the addition Of well chosen hat.
shoes and stockings of correct lines

fur, it constitutes street costume

the way of chic and good taste.

Warmth and Wool.

the place. to great extent, Of those
made Of down. These quilts are very
warm and are also very light in
weight. They may be bought for

character of the cover. But 1t Is not
necessary to buy these comforters

fur cuffs. but the model which has
been received most enthusiastically
has simply the touch Of fur at the
neck.
There are also charming little frocks
Of wool. velvet or velveteen. These
have a short. straight or circular cape
which snaps onto the shoulders and
may be removed when necessary.
In one instance it Is fashioned of
very dark green wool. The cape is Of
circular cut and has collar of gray

peated in the fiaring cuffs.
