The popularity of fur for trim ming has reached a point where its appropriateness to the season and its comfort are no longer considered, but it is favored for its becomingness alone. We find it outlining the throat and wrists on the filmiest blouse and edg ing the tunic of the chiffon dancing frock as well as trimming the suit for out of doors and the evening mantle, In 7907 dull green velveteen is ef fectively trimmed with fitch, which ia one of the most favored pelts this winter. The fur buttons are novel and extremely chic. A girdle of dull bronze satin Is another effective touch. This model may be copied In size 16 With 4 yards of 42 Inch material. For many seasons we have had noth- than the sports coat. These are made of the softest and wooliest of the new coating materials and, as a rule, are very light weight, which is an added virtue, as a heavy coat is a thing to be avoided by the woman or girl who in dulges in out of door, winter sports. In 8130 we note the effectiveness of the raglan sleeve, a smart stitched belt and the large patch pockets. This design was made up in a waffle check in black and white. The skirt is a three piece model in white serge. ' It requires 3 yards of 42 inch coat ing to make this coat in size 36. The skirt (7942) may be made In size 18 with 2 yards of 42 inch material. No. 7907 sizes 14 to 18. No. 8130 sizes 32 to 44.

A natural apathy was apparent In the cattle market this week, following the big stock show, when exceptional ly heavy shipments were made. Cat tle prices suffered severe slump, top quality going at "85 , .cents lower and other grades at even more of a de cline. Killers had supplied their needs temporarily and will have to work off the surplus, but as liquida te nwill be light for the next few months the situation is expected to im prove this next week. . - The hog market dropped off 10 cents during the week, with extreme top at $7.85 for the week's close for choice stuff, with heavy stock 10 to 15 cents down. Liberal liquidation in creases the seasonable weakness. I. The sheep house business held up well for the week. Some choice mut ton and lambs were marketed.
