A durable skin for this wrap and one that admits of unlimited renovation Is Per sian lamb, la short coats and blouse cketa, the latter of which ore sometimes A' criBtume. which was by a celebrated Parisian msker. A thoroughly French feature of the hat wbs a thin roarf of while lace which itan-lrd In a tied bow over (lie left ear; two white velvet ramellas hold it against the fur brim, ar.d when poised upon the head the dainty structure sot nt a somewhat raklch angle. All of the fur turbans which are highest at the left have the effect of being placed ridewipe cn the head, and this effect Is much Increased by the talis and lace tabs rosettes and falls and aometiim-s with wreaths and par lands of tiny flowers, which latter combination produces an indescriba ble charm. One opera cloak retn was of panne in a Jewel blue. With a narrow border of Rus sian able. This was tut cut at the nick to effect a decollete look, the shoulders being draped with a fichu of white tulle and net mingled with garlands of tiny pals pink roares. This floral freak was not the least of this wrap's loveliness, for under li'g common. Some of the wiry bear quail ties prettily simulate baby ermine. This Is used for the outride of cloaks, which are. often lined with brocades in rich Ivories and trimmed with Ivory lace and doth cnKsrs. Even baby lamb has Its prototype In Imi tation, and some of the black pannes crinkled up to look like it even go it one better In point of beauty.

SUMPTUOUS FURS IN 8TRIKINO COMBINATIONS. begayed with vsl ( white kid richly embroidered with color. Ibis woolly fur is as much seen as ever. The revival of tur bans likewise adapt it. to headgear, so that a Persian lamb set in three pieces Jacket, hat and muff Is no uncommon sight. The -lamb turbans sre rattle rather, round and with the usiuil lift at the left aide for becomliiKuesa. This lift may be accomplluhed, by a tiny animal houd or several mingled with velvet, tut a more effective treatment is & stiff paint brutth set in a pnuf of velvet. The lamb rauff for such a hat, which is generally worn with a lamb jacket. Is a round roll of me dium slxe. The dressiest mole skla muffs are com bined with chenille fringes, which drop in long festoons from the opening or at the middle, and with those may go a mole aitJ lac turban and a mole coat that nearly rsttchea tha skirt bottom. Stole neck pieces, with huge flut muffs to match are Ukewiae seen in this exten sively popular fur. Other sets will be tnude of real and Imitation suble, fox, er mine, Persian lamb snd even of rabbit sklu. These are mostly for Juvenile weur, but the pelt of the "funny bunny" may likewise touch up adult headgear and not seem out of place. , It Is understood that sealskin is always In. Just at this moment it is having a new vogua for Jackets, ths half of h.-h are sometimes of ' cloth richly . em broidered. Blouse coats of seal with guy eloth and kid fronts superbly encruted with needlework are among the French Im portations. One such, worn with a plain cloth skirt In tha sams rich brown, had a front . of marigold kid embroidered with white and ths same color. A seal turbaii with a crown of tb rlufc rHow k!J went with this which fall over the left ear. The turbans themselves ere very big, and more oval than round. One of sable. and lace, will have the rim completely formed by the animal, whose tail and feet will mingle with flowers and lace for the aide fall. Upon the rabblt-trlmmed turbans this side fall will also sometimes show one or more of the feet suppose to bring luck to the wearer. Where an entire fur coat cannot be af forded a lining with- a cloth outside will provide both warmth and a look of luxury; but except as lining no cloth that Imitates fur is advlBed for day wear. If eveu the most modest fur coat Is beyond one's means, an Inexpensive tippet and muff of Alaska sable or black bear will give the r.ecessary fur touch, and a knitted wool sweater unuvr a trim cloth Jacket provide as much warmth as winter usually calls for. It ut If one is to be genuinely in the swim of fashion more than one fur or fur trimmed coat ia needed to present a good appearance. Reckoning tip the characters of these, a well known maker for the fash ionable, world presents this list: Tor usual day wear, moleskin blouse with hut and muff to match. For automoblling, reindeer coat with matching cap and gloves of the hairless st In. Kor evening, long, loose cloak of ermine or white lamb, with lace and chiffon trim mings. If fur tnuftllngs are In themselves beau tiful, the dainty fixings which now en.bel lbh the evening ones render them doubly so. White lamb is much employed by Krench makers for theater and opera cloaks, whose sleeves and fronts float with filmy flounces and scarfs. Sometimes these airy deckings are mingled with chenille lis flowing angel sleeves and the long petals of its back and front hung a complete un der wrap of spangled net. - Any evening coat which combines fur with airy textiles is approved, so lacy fur blshlngs are also used upon the materials which Imitate ermine and bear. These cloths, when properly made up, have strik ing elegance, and as they do not ge for song, there is no likelihood of their becom- carriage cloaks for elderly women, to whom softness near the face is necessary. Young matrons fond of black also favor theae rumpled panne, which kilted black chiffon trims delightfully in the ways required by fashion. .
