14 THE OMAHA DAILY Bin': SUXDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1001. IN f TIPS O.N WI.NTI3H IMSIIIO.NH. t'rmpnt ttelstti of Kura L'ltetitinleil In I'nrly Vrnrn. NBW YOttK, Oct. 23 An Interview with one of New York's leading furriers this week resulted In some latcrc'sllng Informa tlon ancnt furs. Kor one thin, nil the skins is yet known to fashion will be worn thU tcason anil u singular fcaturo Is (lie com bining of several sorts In ono garment. Kor example, a polerlne cape a shoulder wrup with stole frontB Is made of molro Persian (unborn lamb) with a high collar nod small revers of ermine. An edgo of the parent lamb outlines thb frilly enpe In a curly roll and brown fox tails finish the stolo fronts. Tho tout ensemble of this could scarce ly be called hnrmonlnus. In fact, the ef fect of such widely dissimilar skins thus flung together Is decidedly patchy; but the freak certainly offers valuablo suggestions to thoso who have several sorts of fur on hand In condition to bu mado ovor. Though as to that nothing Is too ragged for the furriers of today to reject nnd they seem to tnko an much pains In making over a garment as In fashioning n new one. A'J an eternally wearing fur, nnd ono that ad mits of unlimited rejuvenation, Persian lamb Is recommended above all others. "I wish you could sco tho Tcrslan wrap? that come to us year nftcr year to be nl tcred," said tho genial furrier. "One In tho first rase n long, closo capo has been coming, for twelve years and with additions and substrnctlona It has gone through all tho stages of fashion. One year It Hhono gloriously as n three-quarters length coat, with tho distinction of owning nearly 200 patches! Hut they were nil Invisible from tho outsldo, you understand. Persian Is adapted to patching nnd with every dyeing It conies out no fresh ns new." The recommendation for durability Is not extended to the baby variety of this fur, which la as perlshablo ns expensive, bald spots appearing with tho least use and tho delicate skin tearing frequently. Howovcr, neither this fragility, nor tho humane preju dice against Its employment niters tho mar ket valuo of baby Iamb. It continues to hold a very aristocratic place in tho world of furs, and If ono may Judge from tho silky revers and cuffs mado of It, the blouncs, Jackets, vests and what not, It will be as usual this year a prime favorite for dressy purposes. Comblnod with ermine tbcro Is nothing smarter. ItelKn of Rrntlnr. Rpcnklhg of this royal fur, a madness seems to have come upon tho world In regard to It. Not In forty yearn has er mine been so much worn as It will be this winter, and though It Is most com monly usqd ns a trimming, whole, ermine coats are seen, somo of them long enough to cover a trailing evening dress, and finished at tho bottom with two wldo cir cular flounces. Thoro are also Jaunty blouses for other evening wear. To go with these nro big ermine muffs thnt sell for 35. Dainty Uttlo tippets with whlto fox tails more narrow, bands that, cross ing at tho throat, hug that member tightly offer charming possibilities for cloth or SMAIIT TAILOR-MADE QOYVN. Ilk cvonlng cloaks. This Is tho ono re striction of ermine, that, except as nu em bellishment for comothlug elao. It Is con fined to evening wear. For day use It Is thought too dellcato for entire garments, except for children, lu which case nothing could be moro elegant. Tho ermine sets' muff nnd tippet seen for llttlo maids of all ages nto exactly like those of tho grown ups. Kven tho huge mutts may bo cnrrlod by mlssle, but tho size of the tippet must conform to her own proportions. Tho samp rule holds good with her mamma, for to wear n nock fixing too big for you now adays is truly to hide your light under a bushel. Lot mo quote the furrier; "Have you noticed that tho smaller the woman tho bigger Bhe wants her boa? It Is all I can do to convince them to the contrary, and tho big muffs also mako smalt women look ridiculous. The hoavy bundling wraps aro magnificent on tall, lino women; but on tho llttlo ones, oh, my!" Thorp Is tbo thing In n nutshell you must bo big to wear around -your nock tho great animals seen In tho shops. For the undersized, tho furriers politely show children's designs, ar demonstrate with great art how tho too big things may bo cut down without damage to style. Re member this when you buy your furs. Htjlm far l.nrivr Women, A royul clonk of ermine lined with sable, In this shop, was a bubllmcr sermon on tho divine privileges of bin woman. This regal wrap, which was mudfc Ion;; enough to Bweep over the train of an evening dress, was of a dazzling splendor, nnd you felt It par excellence the very queen of wraps.

It was sublime, as I say, tho vary queen of cloaks. And Its price a llttlo matter of .15,0001 Uut you mliat expect that sort of thing when you gaze on Russian snble, for, of course, the lining was tho very cream of this clonk. Silver fox Is a rarity nlmost cqunlly precious, nnd ono who likes sable Is always In tho faehlon. It Is much behind thy brown fur In beromlngncss, however, nnd because of Its grizzled look Is generally considered the privilege of elderly women. Purs fur tlic Orillntir), Sty II ill furs more In keeping with ordi nary means nro gray and black lynx nnd sable fnx, a brown Alaskan fur that quite, successfully Imitates Iluislan sable. Hlneo brown Is more faahlonablo than anything else, and tho reddish tone of this glistening pelt is singularly becoming, sable fox will probably be tho popular fur of tho season., In addition to its other virtues, ns furs go, It Is vory cheap, $50 purchasing quite a stunning bon, or "stoles," thoy aro moro properly called find muff. Tho black nnd bluo-gray lynx sets sell for the tamo price. Besides tho furs hero mentioned thoro ore, of course, many others In tho market, seal, mink, chinchilla, black and brown boar, etc., to say nothing of numberless tiny animals of no distinct family. Thcso bear such a painful rescmblanco to our old friends, Tabby and Tom, that It Is no won der their origin Is shrouded In u discreet mystery. Ono llttlo shoulder capo seen was literally hung with thcso small beasts, a lit tle more foxy In typo, but equally as pit eous. Another 'pelerine ol sealskin had a rolled border of fur, with n double headod llttlo beast folded about the high collar and innumerable nameless tails hanging down tho front. X Ctinlcc uf flt);lcn.j One point to be carefully noticed Is, that there Is no trumpery trimming of tho new fur neck fixings, An elegant plainness oh far as ribbon and lace are concerned Is evcry.whcro discernible. Tho length of tho fur coat,, or any coat. Is no more a mootpd question, any ono of four styles bolns consldorod equally modish. These grade all tho way from tho shortest Kton to tho trained evening cloak, n three-quartern length paletot model being considered very smart, Jor sealskin nnd Perzlan lamb. The looso back coats that fall slightly below tho hips are usually seen In velvet and cloth, strappings of a contrasting material being ono trimming for these as swagger ns simple. To conclude. It has been years slnco furs were so Important n feature of winter dress ns they will bo this season, though their period In Now York Is necersarlly a short ono. Even when you come to hendgcar tho trail of tho wild animal Is seen, combined with lace, chiffon, satin and velvet, while the long haired beaver cloth will show n head or small crossed paws. There's no explaining tho vagaries of fashion. MARY DEAN. AntU.ISII THE VHII.. Injurious Kffcet' uf One uf the Faille of Fn.ihloii. Ily sn unaccountable porvorsion of moan ing and uso, says tho Chicago Tribune, II. has becomo fnshlonablo In recont years to wear a veil for the purpose of seeing and bolng seen. "The original and only legiti mate use of a veil was to bldo an object designedly withdrawn from observation. To Interpose nny substance but carefully ground optical glass between tho human eyo nnd tho air Is to Inflict upon tho optic nerve a strain oculists condemn as reck less, tf not dangerous. The barege veils of tho last century wero protectors of the faro when exposed to the rutting blasts of winter. Thoy wero speedily found hasteners of many eye maladies and were no ob noxious to fashion as to health. Their suc cessors nro doeoratlve nnd flimsy, but far moro llnblo to Impair tho sight, because, unlike the closer textures, they do net wholly obscure It. To wolk tho streets with white and black dots Incessantly dancing between tho organ of vision and the objects It Instinctively tries to contcmplato Is n grave abuso of tha most precious bodily faculty and carries with Its Indulgence Inevitable punishment. Tho health authorities of Parlo are mov ing ngalnst. tho veil habit on a now argu ment. While the veil of faohlon serves to conccul facial defects or to minimize resort to beauty's artifices, tho mlcrcscopo has rcvcnlod noxious germs multitudinous!)' en shrined In Its cunning meshes. These malignant and unsuspected Intruders arc easily sucked Into tho nostrils and mouth by the Involuntary oxcrclso of breathing. In tho old east, whoro the toll Is among the mcst ancient of Institutions, there Is no illogical attempt at Its porvorsion Into a medium of observation.

Tho metamorphosis of the "old" woman Into tho "new" Is attended, therefore, with no moro nlnrmlng symptoms In this direction than an expansion of work and opportunities. The passion for housekeeping Is cnrrlcd out Into tho streets, nnd transformations have taken plnco In our groat cities even In tho slums under the supervision of women. ' Chicago has been conspicuous In brilliant achievements along this line, tho work of Its women citizens having gained wide spread commendation. Tho West Side Woman's club, tho latest to undcrlako this work, recently held a great mass meeting to stimulate Interest for clean nnd sanitary streets. Somo of tho nowBpapors go so far as to advocate that the work of street Improve ment and sanitation bo officially placed in tho hands of women. The women of South r.irk, Chicago, havo formed an improvement association, to clean tho fllthy streets which have failed to so curo tho notice of tho politicians.

Whllo visiting recently In a neighboring city I was placed at dinner next to a di minutive damsel, who entertained me dur ing tho meal with her opinions on men and matters. Tho talk had u subflavor of the Btrong-mlndod, oddly out of keeping with her winsome, faco and doll-llko figure, but the faco wa3 so pretty and the chatter so nmuslng that after a time one forgot this disagreeable. Impression. Lator In tho even ing, when the other guests had loft, I asked my hostess who the energetic llttlo maiden was. With a half-emlle Hho answered; "MIfs B Is a very modern person. I thought you would find her Interesting. A couple of years ago her parents, who, I sus pect, had begun to find their offspring n handful, yielded to tholr daughter's request to go abroad and flulsh her education, naively imagining that sho would settle In some quiet old town like Dresden or Han over. A relative was chosen as a duenna, n bank account opened and tho couple started with tho understanding that their destination should be decided by tho girl herself.

Ax it class honiiOfk'ed husbands ure mote misunderstood than nny other persons In existence. The wife will make n fuss If her husband comes home late she will object to his lust motions' to the children, she will ridi cule his l'tlenils until they no lonuer visit cneh other. Step by step the woman will narrow her husband's horizon, for the unforluunte tiian desires peaee nbove nil else und he will do nnylhlnjr to secure It. He tries hard to. do what lie thinks will please h'.s wife, lie never stops n minute to chat with Ids friends, but comes, homo day lifter tiny as roKUlur ns clockwork. He rarely speaks, except lo answer tmestloits. After dinner ho retires to some coiner, where he hopes to pass n quiet hour, lie would love to smoke, but his wife does not like the smell of tobacco In the house. So hi; kcIs what consolation he can from his newspaper. Vet the husband, whoso entire life has been crushed, will only say of his wife, "Four Rlrl, she Isn't well. 1 know If sho weren't sick she wouldn't mind things so much." With hint It Is not lack of backbone that makes him u martyr, but consideration for his wife, lie must make allowances for her because shu Is sick, and hu does it even though It iIiiiiikcs his 11 villi? to mere existing. Ills wife, on the other hand, like their aciiualulauces, never considers her self sick, lu that ebarltablo way her liuslmnd has. She Is merely lu thnt frame of inlud where she knows sho has rights, and will hoc thnt she Kets thorn, no mutter what happens. She Is mistress of the house, ami there her word Is law; she fronts lior husband llko it slave, ami before long ho Is one a shivu who follows her leatl blindly, without any Interest or will of bis own. The husband Is rlht his wife Is sick. Sho Is sick with some ono of those fcmttlu tlhordi;rs which, whllo perhaps not showing Itself In actual pain, keeps a woman continually wrought up and excited, and with hor the excitement has taken the form of Insisting upon having her own way in everything. What this woman needs Is to take l.ydltt K. l'inkham'a Vegetable Compound, und tho dlsagtceablc traits in her husband to which she so much objects will not seem so bud us she thought them. Mrs. rinkham's medicine will unlet her, will mako everything more cheerful, and happiness will reign lu that household. There are other martyrs of our tiny, however the women who sulier year nftcr year, yet uncomplainingly go about t their work, considering It their duty, no matter how they feel. Many of them, when tho pain lu the. back seemed unbearable, when they suil'orod in agony for hours ' during their monthly illness, would go to the family physician. Hut usually they art; women of great modesty und cannot bring themselves to tell a initio doctor the whole truth about their aches and pains. So they secure no re lief und go on, day after day, knowing that each night will but llnd tho pain greater. Thcso silent sufferers are the real martyrs of our day. Hut with them, too, there is no need for their martyrdom. Let them write to Mrs, l'luk ham ut l.yini, .Mass. They can tell her all, every detail of their Illness, about every pain, because sho Is a woman und understands nil tho Ills of women. No man ever sees the letters that go to her, anil these martyrs can snfely toll tho secrets thoy Would bate lo whisper to ti man. So woman need fear to toll. Mrs. Plnkhnni Is ready with her sympathy, ready with her adrlec. ' All these martyrs may bo sure they need suffer no longer If they will but do as Mrs. Plnkham tells them no more pains In the side, no more backache, no more headache. Mrs. IMnkhanVs medi cine cures them all, cures them surely, and cures them for good. I do hope these silent sufferers will go to her and be martyrs no longer.
