Various Dominating Furs
Tulle, Lace and Glittering
Sequins Combine—Noticeable
Footwear
New York.--In suits, both long and
short coats are shown in a wide varie
ty . Russian lines are airing the most
favored. Long coats of broadcloth
worn over skirts of velvet, satin, duve
tyne and broadcloth. These have col
lars, high at the back of the neck,
(trimmed with fur. fur cuffs and often
a band of fur around the hem.
Most of the suits and costumes are
made of velvet, broadcloth, broadtail
cloth, duvetyne, serge and gabardine,
while combinations of satin and faille,
velvet and fur-cloth are the season’s
favored characteristics.
The full ripple skirt is seen in many
attractive models, the ripple being
caused by the circular cut of the skirt.
This skirt is very short and full at the
hem but clooser at the hips. The full
circular skirts and models, in which
box and side pleats are introduced, are
becoming popular.
The hip-length suit coat is observed
in several clever styles, and is often
finished at the lower edge with a broad
band of fur. Various types of long
coats show a fullness at the hips, and,
over all, hovers a suggestion of mili
tarism which will probably materialize
later.
The redingote and moyen age styles,
so closely allied in design, are to be
seen developed in various combinations
of materials. For instance, a model
with a redingote of taupe-colored
broadcloth had sleeves and the foun
dation skirt of self-toned bengaline.
The redingote neck, sleeves and the
hem were trimmed with bandings of
sable fur. Another combination which
was stunning was of brown caracul
cloth and satin.
Tulle, lace and chiffon play an im
portant part in the development of
evening dresses and are well adapted
to the various tunics which are worn
over skirts of satin and silk. The cuir
ass, the moyen age, and the redingoote
styies are all shown in tulle, Chantilly
lace, or elaborate jet embroideries
combined with satin.
The ail-black evening gown is hav
ing a great vogue, for the soft laces
rnd clinging satins and silks in which
it is developed are vastly more becom
ing than when the stiffer styles held
sway.
Panne and chiffon velvet may be had
in all the newest shades oof colorings,
conch - shell pink, oil blue and sea
green, are successful when used for
evening gowns of pronounced sim
plicity.
The furs of the season are rich and
regal, and conform to the styles in a
manner which evidences the new are
of the furrier. A handsome wrap of
chinchilla -was made with a flaring
lower line. The sleeves were large and
at the bands were fulled into a cuff of
the fur. At the back was a cape which
rippled. I lifted it, to see if underneath
the cape the wrap was of fur, and
found it merely had a wide band of
fur around the bottom attached to a
foundation of lining.
Caracul and broadtail are favorite
furs for coats and are trimmed with
fox, dyed fitch, skunk and a new fur
which is called "kit foox.” A novelty
fur is squirrel, dyed to look like kitten
fur. The thick skin oof the fur makes
It dye very successfully and the result
is that we see it made to imitate many
things except itself.
Quite the latest shape in muffs is
the melon-shaped muff. It is cut in
melon-llke pieces and has a frUl
Selection of
Breeding Stock
The successful poultryman should look
carefully to his breeding stock. Perfection in
shape and beauty have little to do with it un
less the bird is absolutely free from taint of
disease.
In fact, the path of poultry history is
strewn with failures due solely to neglect in
watching the health of the breeders. Disease
affects the development of off-spring,
not to mention their egg-productiveness. ft
may even imperil the entire fertility of the
flopk. Next week’s article will contain much
valuable data on this subject.
Look for it, appearing exclusively m Mon

Velvet.
around the opening of silk or velvet.
This shaped mull is usually made of a
short-haired fur, like chinchilla, kol
insky, or mink.
Besides fur, fur-cloth, plush and vel
vet are used for sets of muff and neck
piece and perhaps a hat. A charming
set for the young girl is made of velvet.
The toque is small and close fitting
and has box-pleated ruche of the vel
vet, also lined with rose-colored satin,
and the muff is rather baggy in the
center and hase a boox-pleated ruche
of the velvet at the openings for the
hand.
Monkey fur is having perhaps the
greatest vogue of all furs for trim
ming. It is used as fringe around the
botton of tunics, around the bottoms
ofo waists, on hats, where it is also
used to cover the entire crown of a hat,
looking quite like a head of black hair
where the crown of the hat should be.
It is used upon light and dark mater
ials, upon velvelt and broadcloth, or
lace and chiffon Impartially.
In one illustration is shown a dress
blue ’ charmeuse with a tunic of ecru
net having a margot edge in gold
thread. At the botton this tunic is
finished with a fringe of monkey fur.
At the shoulder is a bright red rose.
AVhere the moyen age or basque
effect is not used in the designing of a
gown, the wide girdle is added to give

the effect of the basque. The dress,
the first illustration, shows the ef
fectiveness of this girdle. The waist
is made of net and has a cape at the
back of heavy lace which is also used
for the high collar, wired to flare at
the correct angle. The tunic, also of
net, has a wide band of velvet around
its lower edge. The skirt is of velvet
as is the wide girdle.
This wide girdle is a feature which
will interest many women who are try
ing to think of some way to rejuven
ate a last winter’s dress. Made in silk
to match or of a mildly contrasting
color it will successfully give the re
quired up-to-date-touch.
The short dresses have brought out
a new shoe in Paris and will no doubt
do something of the kind here, It is
high almost like a boot and fastens at
the inner side of the ankle with a lac
ing which follows a straight line to the
top of the boot.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
Daughter of Geo. Gould Denies Being Hit By Fragment of German Shell
LADY DICIES.
Dublin, Ireland,—Lady Dicies, who
was before her marriage Miss Vivian
Gculd, daughter of George Gould, of
New York, laughed heartily today at
the report that she had been wounded
in the shoulder by a fragment of Ger
man shell and disfigured so that she
could not appear in evening dress
without exhibiting a scar.
"I haven’t seen anything of the bat
tlefields yet, but I hope to soon,” she
said. “My husband has been training
some new Irish formations of troops;
I have been with him and have done
a little work to assist the Red Cross,
also.”
It is learned that the young woman
who was injured was Lady Gertrude
Dicies, daughter of Sir John Pollard
Willoughby, a sister of the Angle-
American Lady Dicies.
In messages to friends Lady Ger
trude minimizes the extent of her in
jury and says she will be back at her
work for the wounded in short order.
