Thin Season.
New York correspondence :
JCn furs arc not
going to lie fine
enough this winter ;
they luust have emi -
i liellishment of some
\ stylish sortto take
' place in the first
rank. Naturally
there are not a great
many sorts of trim-
* i mings that are suit-
j able for this use ,
but the season now
beginning will have
more than are usu
al. The many tricks
of combining two
kinds of fur are still in force , and are
worked a.s persisteutlv and as effectively
is ever. But the possibilities in this di
rection have boon pretty well developed ,
so a new touch has beeu demanded and
been put forward. It consists of the us * ?
in a variety of ways ol fringes and cords
on fur. These trimmings may be plac
ed inconspicuously as mere edging , or
may consist of design work and orna-
nents , much like the ornamentation put
tributed over them with a lavish hand ,
hut though the cut usually Is of the loosest
est , the scheme of trimming ordinarily is
such that clever handling of the seem
ingly shapeless garment is necessitated.
It will not do to start with a carelessly
baggy foundation , just because a deal of
trimming is to go on it.
In less elaborate coats loose models
arc numerous , and the finish shows orig
inality. The latter statement is true in
such degree that it is difficult , indeed , to
secure a simple garment of sufficient in
dividuality to appear as of the new
stylos. The coats and wraps that are
not grand are finely contrived. Some of
these are sketched here. In the first pic-
lurf is a coat of dark brown broadcloth ,
its stole and cape effect ornamented with
shaped pieces of light tan cioth appli-
qued on and finished with brown silk
.fringe. In the next illustration is a coat
of blue Kihelliue trimmed with tan cloth
embroidered with tan cord. And in the
concluding picture is a black broadcloth
coat faiK-ifully self-banded. Coats of
tins last one's general Mrt are often
nia.li' individual by ornamentation of the
seams. Strapping are various for this
purpose. They are left with raw edge
i when the material warrants such treat
ment. In elaborate coats eam finish
takes many fanciful and ornate forms.
The sloping shoulder is ( piite as impor
tant a matter as ever. Some of last
season's models seemed highly exagger
ated in tiiis respect , and hinted that the
end of this fashion was near. But foi
once the exaggeration did not foretell \
shift to some other idea. Instead , wom
en have become accustomed to this verj
oddity , and have voted it admirable , con-

on dress poods. In the latter manner
much of this embellishment is very strik
ing. An ermine jacket finished with
lack silk cord and ornaments in liberal
supply will stand out as new , you may
lopouil. What is hastening the replac-
nsr ' f rwo-fur combinations is the oppor
tunity they ive for making good use of
my old furs. This stands for econom-
ziii . though making over in furs is cost-
'v business enough , but the out and out
-tvINh affair in peltry must be free from
ill such suspicion , according to those who
-et fashions. In millinery , fur trimmed
'iats ' are many , and the amount of ftlr

Coats are so elaborately made that the
shopper doesn't get much impressed with
Mic simpler ones until compelled to con
sider them by the prohibitive prices at
which the highly wrought garments are
much more of it Were there only a few
set ways of attaining it , the notion would
have become tiresome long ago , but it is
secured in so many widely different
ways that there's no sameness to it So
stylish women go on appearing shoulder-
less , and each woman in nearly her own
particular way. It is in this great oppor
tunity for individuality that the hold of
the fancy on women's favor lies. Then
the follower of the idea need not accept
an advanced form of it , for there are
numerous moderate responses to the
style. The costumes remaining in to
day's illustrations present it variously.
In the model at the middle of the second
picture it comes in an extension on to the
bhoulder of the yoke. This gown was
gray mixed suiting and black cord. Be
side it is an example of slope gained
through a cape , a frequent resort , espe
cially in pronounced models. Fuchsia

were the materials here. In the next
picture is an odd bertha effect , recalling
