Tliy aro auro of at leaat fow aoonona modlshnosa, while the combination sots, owing their vogue to the whim of fashion, rather thau to Intrlnala value, are likely to loae their amartnoaa with the passing sea- aon; but If a woman can make up a pretty and effoctlve aot herself and a surprising number of women can do ; that aort of thing or can have one : made by some little furrier or milliner , under her own caroful directions, then the combination eat la altogether de- , alrable and will give cachet to a alrn ple costume.

Kven the choapor vari eties of fox. whon Imported In fancy and beautiful aota bring high prices; but one can buy a Very good looking muff and neckpiece of pointed fox or white fox or. dyed brown fox or even good croaa fox for a price by no moana extravagant, aa prices of good fura go, and black fox la distinctly rea sonable. Fox Fur With. Velvet For the youngnr contingent there la nothing In the line of fura more suit able and . more practical than fox and with the omnipresent velvet and velveteen frocks and suits of this winter white fox will be enormously worn, Krmlne la smart for the youthful wearer and effective with Velvet; but It la hardly so becoming or youthful as the fox, and when real. Is more expensive. "Whon real," one says; and tho reservation Is neces sary, for an unbelievable number of rabbits and cats and other bumble bonstlt's perish nowadays In order that ermine may be worn. Home of the Imitations are not bad, are, In fact, quite effective and pretty enotiKO to uho ror little touches of trimming; but one must be sure to pay the price of imitation; and unfor- , tunalely one does not always find hon esty in this regard. The reputable fur riers are reliable in matters of this kind, but Importing milliners, dress makora, etc., are not invariably so, and only within the last week a wom an who purchased a velvet and er mine Bet from a certain Fifth avenue shop noted for chic models and paid the price of real ermine was told by a furrlor to whom she happened to go wearing the sot that her ermine was only an Imitation. And the moral of that la to recognize your cat or rabbit; but, as has been said, a great deal of the Imitation fur is at tractlvo. One of the most pleasing details of the fur fad this fall Is the clever use of fur In millinery and the piquant harmonizing of hat and muff or of hat, neckpiece and muff. The idea, to be sure. Is now new. There have been fur hats and fur trimmed hats before; but not within the memory of this generation has the thing been so well done or done with such Infinite variety. All Materials Utilized. No material is to filmy or too rich to be combined with fur, and the mil liners, going upon that theory, have produced sets for morning, afternoon and evening, for sports and for smart - social functions, for tho woman who does not care what she pays and for the woman who, like Mrs. Boffin of blessed memory, is "a high flier after fashion" but has little money to spend on dress. Among the girlish sets adapted for winter sport, but quite as suitable for street wear 1b a handsome white fox set whose muff and neckpiece are con ventional enough but whose hat takes the piquant form of a little pointed crown cap of black plush trimmed round the face with a band of the white fox. Simple? Of course, but eminently girlish ?.nd becoming. There are many of the close cap like fur hats for girls and for wom en, some of the prettiest draped a lit tle and trimmed only with a single cluster or blossom of dull gold or silver or color; and there are still more of the small draped toques and hats made of velvet or plush or silk and fur trimmed. And then there are the small hats of two furs In combina tion. It seems useless to attempt description, so varied and so numer ous are the models, but citing a few may give some Idea of the general tendency. Among the alose small toques, for example, there was In one well known and exclusive millinery establishment a low, bowl crowned shape of ermine. the pure whits ermine which has al most pushed the white and black er mine out of sight. The closely rolled brim of this hat was of mole and the trimming was in the form of two osprey feathers crossing each other and posed at the two lidos near the back of the hat, Next to this model was another which was all of ermine, a little higher than tho last, though still closer and draped Just a trifle. A single line of large brilliants ran around the crown, half hidden In tho fur, and the trimming was a alngl ostrich feather at the back. A charm ing evening hat, this. ' Mole and Ermine. ' ' Mole and ermine are much used to gether by the milliners, but one sees loss black; and white fur In the new millinery than one did last year. Hats with draped crowns of rich moire, corded silk, velvet or brocade and with brims of fur are popular, and many of them are exceedingly likable. The Rembrandt tarn Is easily and suc cessfully developed In this combina tion, and there are countless other shapes, small and large, that are as adaptable. The big hat whose crown Is entirely of fur while the brim is of chiffon or lace fur trimmed Is considered exceed Ingiy chic and Is otfen very lovely Sometimes the crown of the big bat Is of white and silver brocade or of brocade in somo darker coloring, and the wide brim la of chiffon, Ha flat lay nrs edged with narrow lines of fur. and often the whole large shape la of velvet or satin or brocade and the fur la used merely In a scarf or band around the crown or perhaps In a scarf and as a border to the brim. Whole muffs and draped hats of stunning brocade, with very slight trimming of fur, are among the lm ported sets, and some of them are very good looking, though others are rather conspicuous for anything save evening wear. Velvet and plush are used In the same way, and any one who has even a few scraps of good old fur can easily find use for them In these sets. Long Scarfs Much Admired. The very wide long scarfs of fur In which the whole body may be swath ed have their counterparts In similar scarfs of chiffon, lace, silk, etc., fur trimmed, with big bats en suite, and some of these sets are wonderfully lovely, though not every woman can wear such a scarf gracefully.

"No, he's gone out," returned the clerk, without tak ing his eyes off the space. "Will he be back after dinner?" Inquired the man. "Nope," yawned the clerk, "that's what he went out for."

About ten years ago a Japanese re searcher, Takamlne, In the laboratory of Columbia university, made the dis covery that a certain substance, se creted by a gland of the ox or sheep, when injected into, the blood of other animals, had the power of greatly in creasing their blood pressure and con sequently their vitality. He called this substance adrenalin and succeeded in refining It to light yellow crystals.

The crystals are pure and have ex tremely great power. One part of the adrenalin dissolved in 100,000 parts of water is strong and capable of per forming miracles. In fact, one-half thimbleful, or about that much, has been used In hospitals all over the country, time and time again, to en able a man to pass a crisis when his natural strength would have failed him. Hundreds of men and women can thank adrenalin for their lives. that attracted much attention In one shop, though, as one woman put It, "It would be dirty In a moment and it Is a sort of Imitation which I despise and yet it is pretty," consisted of a hat, muff and enormous scarf of white plush, the very handsome silk deep pile plush which, as every woman who .has priced it knows, Is not ex actly cheap. The .trimming was of ermine or of imitation ermine tails who shall say which ? -set on the plush scarf and muff to make deep bordering bands and holding the drap ery of the toque. An evening set in better taste, though the plush set did have a cer tain charm, was made of white satin embossed in velvet In a floral pattern of many soft rich hues. The big drap ed muff was Bhlrred Into a narrow band of white fox at one side and drooped lower at the other side to dis appear under a whole white fox pelt.

There is a good deal said about the loss of individuality, a loss when real which we all deplore, but a man Is more likely to keep his individuality, with his life, if he follows In his mo tor the formulated lines of traffic rather than meet another man In his motor on the wrong side of the road. If both men happened to be in a civic rarade there would be no loss of in dividuality to the man who kept his place behind Instead of driving out from his place in ordey to get farther ahead of the man behind him, or in order to slip in ahead of the one ahead of him. Keeping in line means a simple thing often, but.lt Is one of the trifles that make for a perfect ly smooth, existence. There are seeming restrictions in life that hamper, but there are a great many others that forward. It Is easy to understand the gains when compli ance of a purely mechanical sort but very necessary ha3 been made. By reasoning from their analogy we may find out to our advantage that thero are many others less tangible, a com pliance with which would do wonders in making- the world go round, nnd In making ourselves tho happiest and most successful people. are translated into commercial realities.
