T H K V O r It I E li 12 i a FASHION The Season's Novelties in Coats, Boas, Muffs and Hats A friend f mine ha reentl it turned from ubroud with wimc n-gal fur. I think tin nwk affair I like most rami from Paris. It is a wonderful combination of Imperial .sable ami Duchesne lace. The lace appears in little knots between the tails, which llnish the wide collar proper. This is so ample and deep that it might almost le called a cape, and ends in front in the longest tabs I have seen. They reach quite to the bottom of the gown, and are also finished with tails. The muff which Koes with this is larger than those of last year, but it Is not of the usual cylindrical form, but a lovely creation in which sable tails and Dueh es.se lace are combined. It is very deep or wide and almost Hat. and is particu larly dressy, with a bunch of violets fastened near the left side. My friend is a young woman of exquisite taste who can wear all of these little daring accessories with grace. With this set of furs she wears a hat of pleated chiffon, turned up at the sides toward the back, and having one very handsome sable skin draped ov-r the left side. There is undoubtedly a growing partiality for these tricornei hats turned up after a new manner, from the back instead of from the front. They are worn well over the face in a seml-iolnted style, and are particularly popular in fur. One of chinchilla and the quality for hats must be excellent has rosettes of delicate blue velvet where It turns from the hair on either side, and in the center of each is an ornament a stone of some sort. The hat 1 saw had rhlnestones, but the real Kerns, diamonds or turquoises, are substituted by those who hae them, and indeed. I know of no better way of displaying one's jewels cer tainly nothing could be more effective. This model was devoid of other trim ming save a fold of the velvet which was brought from under the front brim straight over the crown and ended In short tabs on the back hair. A full-length broadtail worth thous ands of dollars was worn by a well known society woman one cool evening last week. It had revers of line chin chilla cascaded down its entire length in front, and a wide sailor collar of the fur. The effect was charmlng.but as the very best of chinchilla will turn just a trille after a little wear, such luxuries are only for those of unlimited means. Krmine has never been so popular. This is perhaps accounted for by the unprecedented rage this season for black and white combinations. What ever the reason, it has come to stay. A set of ermine, consisting of hat, col lar and muff, has the tails clipped off close, leaving a small black polka dot effect which is more odd than pretty. Krmine Is used in combination with dark green velvet with very satisfactory results. One model has a wide lay down collar (many of the collars are un wired and rest on the shoulders) run ning Into a deep facing the full length of the fronts. The coat Is very long in fact quite en train in the back and a stitched strip of velvet three Inches wide falls from between the shoulders to the end of the train. I have rarely seen a more graceful carriage wrap. A red cloth with deep Napoleonic cuff.i, not quite meeting in front and strappt-d across the space with heavy black braid, was very stunning. This coat was also long and had a collar and revers of Hudson Hay sable. The fur is pretty, but cannot compare in elegance with the dark Imperial. Among the shorter coats of broad tail, sealskin and Persian Iamb there are also many good styles. The latest fad seems to be to combine the fur with embroidered velvet. One model of Alglon broadtail had a belt, collar and full puffs at the wrist of brilliant orange velvet, embroidered with tine Jet In a delicate trailing pattern. This would be becoming to a brunette :euuty. Another hid pale blue tlower designs worked out on thin black net and united with sealskin in a vest effect. Then there are some daring French coats, half lengths, with all sorts of tabs and fussy continuances spread over th front. Some or these are cut pointed in the back and are tar from pretty. A long black velvet coat pleated on to a short yoke of heavy lace was very effective. It was almost the antithesis of the French garments, and much more graceful, al though devoid of garnishing, save for the lace and wide taffeta silk ties veiy long which fastened it at the tin oat. A cloth cloak lined with datk green .Russian squirrel was serviceable looking, but I cannot say I admire fur lined wraps. They are too heavy and cumbersome in appearance. Mouff lon, uhich had somewhat of a run last year, will not be seen much this sea son. Iiily Modish. -Z COMING AMUSEMENTS x- At the Oliver The cast which will be seen at the Oliver Monday. November IS evening, with William DeVere in his new and successful comedy. "A Common Sin ner," is raid to be one of the best that has been put together to support a farce comedy star. It Includes Clay ton Kennedy, who made such a de cided hit when last here with Hoyfs "A Trip to Chinatown." in his very Jnique piano specialty: William Phil bKck, also remembered as being one of the leading features in that same comedy: Maymie Taylor, Mattie Roonej, the very talented daughter of the late Pat liooney. Daisy King, long identitied with George Lederer as a leading figure in his many spectacular productions and one of the strongest singing parties ever heard in a musical production. The sale of seats lias been large and for choice locations an early applica tion would be advisable. Price 2."c to J1.00. -' ji j 'C v- The storj of Blanche Walsh's play, "The Hunt for Happiness," which will be presented at the Oliver theatre on Wednesday evening, November 20, is said to be very daring and original, and to boldly and eplgramatically thrash out the problem of a woman, ambitious, wilful and discontented, though not bad at heart, who. In her selfish desire for personal happiness, sacrifices her home and friends and in her vain pursuit of the unattainable, ultimately finds happiness only In death. Miss Wal.h is said to give a powerful and magnificent portrayal of the role of the errati and emotional heroine. Lea Issf-r Prices 23c. .7 .
