"Does the baby look like its father?"
"I suppose so. The mother says the
father looks like the baby."
AT WASHINGTON
FASHION
NEW YORK, Nov. 8. At Morris Park
these early autumn days the panorama
of sartorial novelties Is as Interesting
to women as are the races, if Indeed not
a little more so.
I was particularly fascinated one day
recently by a costume of dark blue
Cluny lace. Skirt, bodice and hat were
all of the lace over blue taffeta and
chiffon or moussellne. The skirt was
close fitting, with the wldeness at the
bottom, but with no outlining of a
flounce, so beautifully was the lace
joined where this Indispensable fulness
began. The lace was heavier at the bot
tom of the gown, where extra mull roses
were appliqued. The bodice was like a
sort of short Monte Carlo coat, reach
ing almost to the waist, and hanging
full over a fine lace blouse. The collar
and belt bad flowers appliqued on them.
The latter was very wide, as are almost
all the newest belts with dressy gowns.
This one was of crushed taffeta, corsage
shaped in the back, and narrowing to
ward the front. The hat was flat and
broad, with a festoon of narrow lace,
falling over the hair at one side and
edging the entire wide brim. The crown
was of the Tarn o Shanter style, with
taffeta roses, blue and white, nestling
at the back and front in clusters of
three or four. A stunning loose jacket
of navy blue cloth went with the cos
tume, and was donned on the return
trip. This garment was finished in front
with biscuit cloth with braid trimmings,
and was formed with a new cut cape
and wide sleeve cuffs trimmed in a like
manner. The back hung straight from
the shoulders, with the short cape show
ing to good advantage. The front revers
e-f light cloth reached quite to the end
of the coat, and narrowed from the
throat downward. The sleeves to the
cuffs were very loose and baggy. There
seems absolutely no rule about coat
sleeves. All styles are seen. Loose all
over, loose to the elbow only, loose be
low the elbow, kimono like, with or with
out cuffs and trimmings, and lastly, al
most without any fulness.
Mrs. Thomas Hitchcock, Jr.'s, gown
was also blue, but of a lighter shade than
the one I have Just described. It was of
rmurh material, tailored exquisitely.
The skirt was of walking length, with
a long, plain coat reaching to the knees.
White collar and revers were the only
trimmings visible. Her hat was small,
black and not pretty.
Brown is extremely favored, and many
new fall suits of this color were on view.
A tall blonde, who has hitherto shown
a penchant for purple, has evidently for
sworn her allegiance to the royal hue,
for she appeared radiant In a complete
toilette of golden brown, with a russet
foliage hat which was in itself a tri
umph. The crown and leaves of the lat
ter were of various autumnal hues. The
hat was further enhanced in beauty by
dull, but richly colored china asters In
two clusters, "one at the front, a little
to the left, and the other under the
back of the brim. The costume was
made with a plaited skirt, showing the
very faintest suspicion of white between
the plaits at each movement of the
wearer. The coat also showed a trifle
of. white In the garnlshlngs. The deep
caffs were piped with it, and the small
triplicate cape was strapped with it.
The coat fitted loosely in the back, with
a box plait running Its length, belted n,
but not tightly. The front was com
pletely loose, and showed a double-box
plait on either side.
Another brown outfit had the uphols
tery style of trimmings, heavy, silken
ropes and big, crocheted ornaments.
TMa, though thoroughly fashionable, was
too clumsy appearing, and made Its
plump wearer look not unlike a com
fortable, nicely cushioned arm-chair.
The loose, long-shouldered Japanese
style wraps were also In evidence. These
meet my approval upon figures not too
gCBeroBsly proportioned. One with two
capes, with the fulness depending from
them, was especially attractive- It was
trimmed with pendants and jet. The
opening of the capes In front showed a
tightly fitted white cloth front, closely
battened up for warmth. The collar,
cages of the fronts and the buttons were
afl In the same piece, put on like just
tae kimono trimming. It was a decided
aevelty. and attracted many puzzled
msscuTlnr glances.
fBeme fan were out, notably stoles and
haK-leagth coats of squirrel. A stole,
faMy a foot wide, was edged with er
miac This Is one of the best combina
tions. A hat to match was worn with It

The social debut of Senorlta Adelina Alvarez Calderon, daughter of
the Peruvian minister, will be a notable society event at the capital. Shu
is the only debutante In the diplomatic contingent this year, which
adds to the Importance of the event. She is eighteen years old, beautiful
and vivacious.
This was of medium size, having a brim
turned up at Intervals all the way round,
and tacked to the crown. At each point
of attachment was an ermine tall by
way of trimming. A bunch of white
velvet camellias graced the front of the
crown. White lace tabs finished it In
the back.
Lace, fur, chiffon and flowers are to
be combined in head-wear again this
year as they were last. The shapes,
however, are radically different. An
other Russian squirrel stole of extra
length, reaching quite to the bottom of
the skirt, was made up with chinchilla.
This combination is not nearly so good,
the contrast not being sufficiently
marked.
In jewelry, antiques are coming to the
front. These are of foreign make, pre
sumably, and show the old and new
enamel, with odd little pearls and jewels
pressed into singular settings. For
pendants, big amulets of curious shape
are shown, of still more unique work
manship. One suspended from a short
neck chain is fully three inches in di
ameter, and has seven pink pearls for a
centre. About these are grouped bits
of varicolored enamel, red and dark rich
blue predominating. Here and there
over all are little seed pearls and garnets
liberally dispersed. These antiques come
also in bracelets and rings, though the
latter are not pretty. The bracelets,
which are exquisite, are muchworn In
London and Paris. Crosses show the
work handsomely, but are not so popu
lar as the amulets.
The new hand-bags, too. are .charm
ing. A girl, wearing a triplicate tweed
skirt, a three-caped coat, and a brown
velvet hat built In three tiers, carried
one of the most modish of these bags.
It was of dull brown suede, regulation
size, and was completely studded with
dull garnets, each about the size of a
plnhead. The chain from which It was
pendant was of steel links and was no
ticeably longer than those of a season
ago. Another green leather purse or
bag, beautifully lined with white moire
and made with several inside compart
ments, had a design in pearls worked
upon its surface. Scarlet leather is now
made Into these articles, but it is a little
too showy. '
The latest conceit In modern necklaces
is that of many strands of pearls twisted
together to form a thick rope, from
which Is suspended an immense tur
quoise matrix, pear-shaped, or a fine
fresh-water pearl of good size. An In
finite variety of hair combs is shown by
jewelers. They are Invariably made up
of tortoise shell, light or dark In color,
and have jewels all over the top rim.
Pearls set in the dark shell produce the
best effect, although turquoise settings
make a close rival in beauty.
Brooches are still made with the very
large centre stone surrounded by dull
gold or pearls. Lady Modish in Town
