Tips on Smart Furs at
Small Cost for
Thrifty.
By ELEANOR GUNN.
With the price of furs so high that
they are hardly within reach of any
but the rich, it is consoling to know
that such made sets ' as we show
herewith are considered smart. If
one's income must be spread over an
aera that sometimes seems endless,
it is also some satisfaction to know
that with patience, and a compara
tively small outlay of money this
set could be made at home.
Muff forms may be purchased at
almost any furrier's or department
store and they are no more difficult
to cover than a ;lamp shade for ex
ample. t Nearly every woman has
tried her hand at that and found it
was comparatively easy.
This particular set was worn by
a very chic girl who was sketched
in a Paris restaurant. She had
chosen black sajlin for it with light
gray squirrel, but it would be more
serviceable for the coming season
if made of velvet. If supple chif
fon velvet is used the effect will not
be heavy in the least even though it
is shirred on rather heavy cordings.
It will seem that it might also be
made of cloth, such soft stuff of
course as duvetyn. In the event of
using georgette for the model, it
shold not be lined. Naturally the
lining when used should be of the
color chosen for the scarf. It may
be put on plain after the scarf is
otherwise finished enough for its fur
edging, or it may be laid on the
material first and shirred as is the
outside. This method is advised so
that in winding the scarf around
one's throat both sides may share
the harmony of detail.
Fur Bands a Smart Economy.
Mention has been made previously
of the extensive use of fur edging and
bandings. Fur bands are used in
preference to all fur collars on many
a winter coat and even suits are so
trimmed. It is economy one may
take advantage of with confidence
that it is smart. Many an old fur
coat or cape too out of date or in
too bad a condition to be worn, may
find a field of usefulness in this
way as bandings. , It matters not
whether the fur be of the long or
short-haired although there are
more narrow bands of the close fur
such as beaver, nutria, seal, squirrel
and mole than others with the ex-

ception of the fringe effects for
which monkey and mongolian goat
are used.
Brown Furs Lead.
Brown furs, any furrier will tell
you, are the autumn demand. Small
fisher neckpieces have replaced fox
and little scarfs of sable and mink
make up the cost in smartness what
they discard in size. ' ,
No Depth of Fur Trimmings.
Occasionally one reads that fewer
fur trimmings are worn this year
than last and yet a careful examina
tion of the merchandise even in the
smartest shops seem to contradict
this statement. i
It is, of course, too early to take
into consideration what smart
women will (actually wear. Unless
one counts occasionally-worn motor
coats, there has been no reason yet
for appearing in fur trimmed gar
ments. Summer furs were of little
importance this season, but for all
that the small animal scarfs have
had continued recognition. At
races and even in town one is very
apt to see well-clad women wearing
something of peltry around their
throats.

The Hallowe'en Cat.
The Druids, priests of the Celts
centuries before Christ came, be
lieved that on the last night of the
old year (October 31) the lord of
death gathered together the souls
of all those who had died in the
passing year and had been con
demned to live in the bodies of ani
mals, to decree what forms they
6hould inhabit for the next 12
months. He could be coaxed to
give lighter sentences by gifts and
prayers. An animal sacred to the
Druids was the cat. v
English Hallowe'en Customs.
In a tub float stemless apples, to
be seized by the teeth of him de
sirous of having his love returned.
If he is successful in bringing up
the apple without using his hands,
his love affair will end happily.
An apple is peeled all in one piece,
and the paring swung three times
round the head and dropped be
hind the left shoulder. t it
does not break, and is looked at
over the shoulder, it forms the ini
tial of the true sweetheart's name.
In America.
The one who first succeeds in
threading a needle as he sits on a
round bottle on the floor, will be
first married.
Twelve candles are lighted and
placed at convenient distances on
the floor in a row. As the guest
ieaps over them, the first he blows
out will indicate his wedding month.
A pair of apple seeds named for
two loers are stuck on brow or eye
lids. The one which sticks longer
represents the true, and the other
the disloyal sweetheart. i
Letters of the alphabet are carved
on a pumpkin. Fate guides the hand
of the blindfolded seeker to the -fateful
initial which he stabs with a pin.
Letters cut out of paper are sprin
kled on water in a tub. They form
groups from which any one with im
agination may spell out names.
Tiny candles are lighted and
placed in nut shells, then put adrift
in a tub of water. Their behavior
is significant If they cling to the
Side, their namesakes will lead a
quiet life. Some will float together.
Some will collide and others will
bear steadily forward. Needles may
also be named and put afloat in a
dish of water. Those which cling
side by side are lovers.
Black and yellow are favorite col
ors for decorations; yellow for the
ripe fruit and grain of the season,
and black for the art of magic. Corn
stalks and pumpkins are used pro
fusely. Hallowe'en Menu.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are not coming to you for love
advice, but maybe you will help us,
anyway. We are three sophomores
in high school and are going to
give a Hollowe'en party. Could
you suggest a menu for this party?
We do not care for anything very
elaborate. '
Please answer 1 through The
Omaha Bee.
Thanking you in advance, we are,
THREE SOPHOMORES.
Watch these columns for Infor
mation regarding Hallow'en.
Menus should include hearts, . col
ored cakes cut in animal shapes,
chocolate cakes cut in shape of black
cats, sandwiches cut like pumpkins.

Troubles.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
see so many ask you for advice, so
I will take a chance asking a thing
or two myself. I'm 19 years old
and have been going wfth a man of
22. He has been in France for over
a year. He returned last May,
saying he would come to see me at
once, but put it off, saying he would
come in July, but the date he was to
come I was called to Denver, so I
let him know I was leaving, saying
he should come as soon as I got
DacK, out tnen he put it off till the
beginning of October, but yet never
came had put it oft once more.
He lives in one of the eastern states.
Do you think I should write and tell
him simply to stay there since he
never can keeD a nromise? Aln I
have a sister of 20. S(he is in love
with a man of 25. He says he is di
vorced for five months, but many
have told us he was not divorced
yet. How -could we find out the
truth and how long must a man be
divorced before marrying in either
or tnese three states Iowa, Mis
souri or Kansas? Thanking you
very much. ,
BLONDE AND BRUNETTE.
One of several reasons may be
keeping the young man away. First,
he may be short of finances. Sec
ond, he may care very little for you.
Do not be hasty in telling him to
stay away. Time solves these prob
lems better than quick tempers.
Tour sister should be careful if she
is not certain the man Is . divorced.
He should show her the decree of
divorce and simplify matters. Send
your question about divorce laws to
our legal aid department of The
isee.
Why Worry?
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee: I
read your "Advice to Lovelorn"
every evening and I have come to
you for advice. I have been going
with a girl of 18 years for two
years and she always seemed to
love me dearly and always said she
did till about a week ago, when she
went out with one of my boy friends
for a car ride, but I did not know
it till one of my other boy friends
told me, and I was there the next
day and she never said nothing and
seemed to love me like always.
Should I quit her or go to see her
again? Thanking you for advice
would like to see in print soon.
THE LONESOME BOY.
P. S. For I am only 21 years old.
I see nothing wrong in your girl
friend going for a ride with another
boy friend. Why should you quit
calling? Unless you are engaged
you have no right to question her
evenings with other boys.
Who Knows?
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Uee:
Please give me the name of the
movie actor who took the part of
the city chap in Charlie Chaplin's
comedy, "Sunnyside."
