And What Devlin Says is bo.
Sensible folks know that it is un-
wise to rave money at the ex-
pense of their feet. Experience
has taught them that proper foot-
wear is the keystone of solid
comfort that arches the entrance
toward material happiness.

All citizeci of tlie Islington camp
are married' hundreds of them to
llritish wives. Each man is allowed
to see his family once in 8 days for
.'10 minutes. When the United Pros

strolling about the enclosure. Many
families live now near the camp of
their husbands or brothers. Every
wife if in want receives a grant of
$L'.70 per week with an additional o-
cents for every child.
When an enemy alien reaches Isling-
ton lie deposits his cash with the com-

Of all the handsome fur-fabrics that
which imitates- broadtail or moire
carictrt is the handsomest. In making
this variety of their product the man-
ufacturers have achieved a marvelous
likeness to the skins they imitate in
a material less bulky and more dur-
able than the fur. The expert fur
dealer must look twice to tell the dif-
ference botween it and his own wares
In a made-up garment.
Designers have taken advantage of
this material to make up wraps that
raally deserve to be described as
splendid. Its suppleness allows am-
ple length and fullness without too
great weight and its beauty makes
the use of elaborate ornaments in
the details of finishing appropriate.
Unless fur-fabrics are degraded in
Quality they are destined to play a
great part in our apparel in the com-
ing seasons.
The stately coat shown in the pic-
ture is made of an imitation of broad-
tail (or baby lamb). It is far more
elegant than the cheap grades of fur
and no fur could be fashioned into a
more Impressive garment. It will solve
the problem of those women whose
consciences will not allow them tc
wear broadtail but who appreciate
its exquisite and incomparable rich
surface.
The broad collar and cuffs are ol
marten fur and a hanging panel at
the front is finished with it. Orna
ments of silk braid with pendent
balls define the waist line at the back'
and front.
A careful use of rich embroidery
is managed with such good art aB
the finishing decoration that this coat
is placed in the class of. ultra-smart
novelties.
A White Velour Hat.
In one white velour hat the crowk
is almost entirely covered with en-
circling bands of black satin ribbon
through which only an occasional
gleam may be seen of the white veloui
beneath. The brim of this hat h'
bound at the edge with a full ruch:'
of white satin ribbon and trimmed on
one side of the crown with two very
large white wines.

Little aristocrats of the apron tribe
make their appearance at holiday time
each year always sure of a welcome
and never failing to find many admir-
ers. It lies without their province to
bo anything but dainty and becoming
with perhaps a little usefulness thrown
in by way of good mercure. But use-
fulness is really a matter of secondary
importance the main thing being the
oharm that lies in the rellnernent of
these frivolous and pretty furbelows.
Serving aprons and sewing aprons
are made of line cotton goods organ-
dies swiss embroidery batiste and
lawns with laces and embroidery
used for ornamentation and ribbons
employed for finishing. They are
much elaborated and bedecked and
they are small and gracefully shaped.
The materials and trimmings used
are washable and the aprons last a
'ong time. They are very easily made
and among the least expensive of
really worth-while holiday gifts.
Allover embroideries and dotted
ttwiss are chosen for the majority of
the aprons displayed for the holidays
ibis year. Occasionally pretty figured
lawns appear among them or plain
batiste with lace insertions let Ut In
various designs and having a lace frill
about the edge. They are set on lo a
narrow hand of sheer material and
this is finished with ends for tying In
a how at the back. A belt may be
made of wide beading and satin rib-
tion in a light color run through It
tnd extended into ties. Small bows
and rosettes of ribbon are posed on
r ockets or B mewhore at the edge.
ConsMering the very smail cent of
Uio materials ui;ed In making tUcia I
there is almost no other holiday gift
which equals the fancy apron at sc
low a price. They are easy to mat:;
and most of them are put togethat
with machine stitch.;ng. The laces
used are washable like those used on
undermusllns and heading both nar
row and wide serves to carry the rib
bon that embellishes so many of tliesf
gay little affairs.
Modish Cnades of Brown.
Many combinations of material ap-
pear in these first general utility
frocks; but as a rule the materials
match in color if not in weave one-
tone effects being the rule. A good
deal Is being done with light browns
lovely shades with pretty tones in
running into fawn and beigo coloring.
The modish browns shade on down
through nut and loam and Havana
tones to very dark browns of a soft-
ened tete de negre character and thj
whole line is promised popularity as
are the soft and beautiful medium and
dark greens.
Sleeveless Coatees
Sleeveless coatees will be worn all
throiieh ttio Riitumn and eiirlv wintnr
They cling to the figure and can be
worn uncer any or me new loose
wrap .coats.
Pome coatees are made of bright
colored shantung; others are made ot
fine cashmere In briillent colors and
iimtihdl o:T at the neck and sleeve-
holes with sUk and wool embroideries.
