Narertheleaa, the whlma of the gay franch capttal-capltal of faahion'a do main aa well aa of the French republic have yay of finding their way over the Atlantlq and are , aometlmea wel , corned by women of America. Some Mliaea theVf tranaplantlng ,1 it little too hard on ttiem and they do, not take root ; In nf w otl But thafe a queattort that only time 'can newer! " In thla 'tween .aeaaona, when w atlll , tllar to our cold .weather dotbee, even though the 'ehopa be full Of ' aummer ' fabrlca, aome little Imported fada and fancies are 'not without Intereat Borne of them. It'tnuat bo admitted, ara al . moat too extreme to be adopted by our countrywomen, though othera, I ven . ture to predict, will be taken up wita entliuaiaam. . ' For lnatance, ean you imagine anr- thing having greater chlo than the little collar of fur with butterfly bow of aatln fastening It at the back or under one ear? ' . I told you about It when first It made ita appearance In Parle eereral montha ago. but It la quite worthy of a eecond mention. By way of contraat, this bit , of a collar la worn with a muff of quite glgantlo preportlona. and the effect la certainly atrlktng- From the fad for collarleaa gowns wa muat, of course, go to the other ex treme and awatha our throats In folda of stuff until not a bit of them la to be ' een. High, high behind the ears rises the fashionable collar, and far, far out. almost to the point of the chin. And although this sounds uncomfortable, In reality it Is not, for much boning la not necessary the secret lying In the cut Of the collar. , Madame Naslmova. the gifted Rua slsn actresa, wore a wonder-provoking collar In her laat play. The whole gown was a marveloue creation of folds and lines, made of queer, earth-colored stuff. Hot the Interest of the gown to the feminine portion ef the sudience lay in the wonderful collar. It awathed Ma dame Nailmova s long neck to the ear- ' tips and ran out quite to the point of her chin. Now, this actress Is noted for length of line from chin to collar bone. How on earth did that collar stand upf . The mystery was solved when the actress hesd dropped weartlv back ward and the collar stood alone! It must have been boned nd canvassed to within an inch of Its life. Quite In keeping with this fashion of hlah neck covering are tne black satis ribbons which Paris belles bind arouna their throate and tie under one ear. the ends fluttering at their own aweet will. You may sea the effect In the sketch lettered "A." Sometimes the ends are very lortg -quite to the skirt hem; but the more onservatlve women cut theira off at a'length of several inches. The Charlotte Corday hat worn by thia flsr ira ie worthy of notice, for you will see many of them on the Easter parade. They ara made of tulle or net. puffed up- into a high crown, with a brim com posed of narrow frills of net. Caught In around the crown are little nosegays of wee rosfhuda and forgeume-nets, while directly in front nods an ostrich tip, caught with a velvet bow. Over a pretty face these hata are lrrealstlble, bo sort and becoming are tneir outlines. Of very different effect is a new the atre headdress adopted by the women of Paris aa a compromise between "really-trulyM hats snd the required hated hatlesa condition. It is nothing more nor less than an orientsl turban of softly rolled tulle or chiffon In deli cate colorings. Sometimes strings of pearls are wound around the chiffon, sometimes It ends In a heavy gold tas sel dropping over the 4eft ear. Its ef fect is ntrtklnaly eastern and quite in keeping with the miles of silken acarfs In which French women- are now wrap nlng themselves, a la the ladles of the lis rem- v These scarfs are now worn with dress 'stilted to any period of the day. In the sketch lettered "M" a novel arrange ment of the" hip scarf is shown worn ss part of a morning gown. With skirt and coat suits the scarf forms a wide girdle under the jacket opening In front, the ends knotted . and hanging In the hack. But . It Is with evening gowns that these queer Fatlma scarfs shine In all .tjhelr glory. Worn in brINIant coloring- dwer evening gowns of somber Shades, they are a moat striking fea ture.. Unnecessary to hint that they are suited only to alender-hlpped fig urea - - ,y " Scarfs for dranlng around the shoul ders come in all colors snd combina tions of beautiful stuffs. Tullev chiffon, liberty silk anything that Is supple and docile in texture Is called Into , requisition. Gray silk net, having bor ders of rococo pink roses, old blue tulls. with tarnished silver flowers and Irish lace dved cherry rolor with borders of rhlnchllla re a few of rthe schemes of these scarfs. 1 French women are Industriously pur suing the fad of collecting scarfs that have st some period of time belonged to famous women. Europe is being ransacked so the madams may have tha attraction of Baying, "TeaT Tou like, my scarf? It belonged to the Pom padour." With evening gowna these scarfa are arranged with a careful eye lor artistie effect and form an import ant pert of the costume. Speaking of evening gowns reminds me that the opera on a gala night in Parla looka like an animated bed of lilies of tho valley Just touched, with frost. Poor flowers, they have come out too soon and Jack FrOst has caught them! There Is a perfect furore for these modest little blossoms for coiffure adornment, but always frosted and sometimes combined with a glittering dragon fly Grecian filets, made of red gold and studded with pearls and gold cabochoua, are worn, binding the hair at the back, below tha Grecian knot. Instead of In front of It Golden quills stuck airily through the hair in front ara much worn. . Quite In keeping with the plctnreaque ness of women's sttlre are bldck bands of velvet worn sround slim white wrists and fastened with a diamond brooch, forming a bracelet. Novelty watch guards are of black watered ribbon, caught with a tiny diamond claan. which suspsnds the jeweled watch on A Wide Black Satin Ribbon Tied Under One ' Ear, With End Touching the Skirt Hem Is the Very Latest Thlnjr.
