Use of Fur in Trimming' "Winter Hats
HE milliner, are making lavish
use of fur as the season ad
vances, and when cold weather
really setlc. down for a winter's
sojourn with us for hats and
furfur trimmed hats wtll be
T
mnro In evidence than they have been
In any recent season. Not only are
whole toques and hats fashioned from
fur, but furs aro combined reckleswly with
every variety of material from velvet to
tulle, and trimmed with feathers, flowers,
laro embroideries, what one will.
Among the all fur hats the greatest nov
elties are In the fur covered shapes, upon
which thin supple furs aro used quite as
are velvets, satins, etc., stretched smoothly
over foundation frames. Often the crown
of tho hat In a heavier fur. too bulky
for brim covering, but baby lamb, mole
skin, and even soft ermine, without tho
black tails are cleverly adapted to hats of
broad or narrow brims.
Tho smaller shapes are chiefly favored,
and hero aro sketches of a few of these
small models with covered brim. Some
(harming shapes of modified trlcorne line
aro mado up entirely In fine acalxkln of
very closo short pile and are effectively
trimmed In curling ostrirh plumes or plumes
de fantaisla.
Other models with mannish crown and
closely curling brim have crowns of ermlno
and brims covered with baby lamb or are
made entirely In baby lamb and have dash
ing feather trimming at the left side.
Tho velvet choux In two tones of one
color or In contrasting colors which have
been much used for trimming large hats of
Uk, satin or felt are effectively used, too,
upon fur and are especially charming In
connection with close fitting hats or caps
of long-haired fur such us fox or lynx.
White fox hats of this type were effected
last spring particularly by young girls,
and In association with neck furs and muffs
of the Barn fur, but novelty Is obtained
this year by giving to those hats of long
fur a single suggestion of mushroom shape,
a cleverly adjusted bandoaux lifting the
hat just enough to allow the effect of a
downward drooping line from center crown
to edge, though in the smaller chapes the
long, soft fur falls close to the hair.
More bizarre aro larger hats of similar
fur and of similar shape, multiplied In size.
These big hats of lynx or fox have a de
llnlte, wide brim, though the line of union
'twlxt brim and crown la hidden 'by tho
long hair of the fur.
In the buck the hat droops like the mush
room slinpe In felt or velvet, and In front
tho hat Is lifted from the face Just enough
to prevent ifs looking unbecomingly
heavy.
A cluster of fantasy feathers, from which
sprung soaring sprey plumes, trimmed one

and another had two huge velvet roses and
a spray of foliage posed among the fur
at tho left front. Naturally these extreme
fur huts are too heavy to be becoming to
all women, but successfully worn they are
distinctly picturesque and handsome.
Soft crowns of mink, ermine, chinchilla
and the other modish furs are united with

Immense, heavy hats continue In favor. The
fur hat, even If small. Is too hot and heavy
for comfort, but women have never allowed
that fact to prejudice them against It.
Marabou, .while not coming under tho
liead of fur, approaches fur so closely In
effect that one naturally associates the
marabou hats with those of fur, and tho
kinship is made closer by the fact that the
milliners are offering hats, scarfs and
muffs of marabou en suite. Tho marabou
fad, however, seems to have been forced
bo violently at the opening of the season
that there Is tiow a slight revulsion against
it, and while real marabou Is beautiful,
and because of Increasing rarity becoming
costly, tho market is flooded with cheap
and Inferior Imitations.
Leave from Fashion's Notebook.
The bridal oostumes are practicable this
season, so that the woman who Is not a
bride can get pointers and improve her
gowns by studying the typically handsome
one of the autumn.
All things are used now to make the
costume oalnty. The newest dress pro
tectors have little lace frills along the
edge that are soft and givq the waist a
pretty setting should thuy happen to show
through.
A dainty little accessory of the costume
is the little bow of lace. This can be of
lace all plaited and mado Into bor-shaie,
or It can be tied after it has been put on
the neck. It lias the tiniest bit of colored
needlework upon tlio ends.
In the Hue of pretty laocs there are the
wide linen cuits which are finished wlili
lace iruis. 'iney are n.aae wltii soft finish
and hto not to be worn with the three
quarter sleeves. These mae ciiarnuiig
finish to tho half worn eilk gown.
A gray wool voile Is mado with a silk
drop SKlit of white taffeta wlm a ruffle
. upon It. This does aay with the neces
sity for a sllK petticoat. The drop skirt
Is titled to the hips, Is full around tne foot
and beautifully tilmmod with a wide silk
flounce, 'lias sets out the wool voile in
very pretty style.
A lovely dress Is a gobelin blue broad
cloth made with a tight fitting Jacket,
buitoning to the belt line. The skirt Is
laid In plaits and is cut off walking length
The jacnet is buttoned with big flat blue
buttons and there Is a white lingerie vest
which Is to be worn with the white em
broidered linen collar.
One of the prettiest traveling dresses In
a fashionable brldo s trousseau Is a twine
colored cloth dress of very durable wool
material striped with brown. It is trimmed
with very narrow cording of blue, which
outline the tucks in the skirt and the
lines in the Eton Jacket, There is a big
hat trimmed with feathers of a pais shade
of green.
It is one of the features of the styles of
the year that they are durable. Afternoon
gowns are made of a very durable kind of
broadcloth calculated to clean well, and
so made that the gowns can be freshened
without taking them apart. Oulmpes, vests
and removable girdles, cuffs and collars
are a distinct feature.
The most durable long cloak of the trous
seou Is an afternoon cloak bollt of mus
tard color cloth, with deep brown cuffs
and a wide -brown silk collar. The front
of the cloak is buttoned In an old-fashioned
way with little knots of lace that
are pulled through round buttonholes. This
method of buttoning the afternoon cloak
Is one way that was copied bv a French
dressmaker from an old painting. Little
rosettes of lace are pulled through "made"
buttonholes and are then flattened out and
