Last of all. lint by no mcuiis the least Important, are (lie handsome fur cloths. It Is quite remarkable how* these have risen in importance In the last few years— partially due. no doubt, to the per fection of their imitation of the real furs. In the finer grades It Is ncccs* sarv to actually feel them to tell the. difference. This year the manufacturers have added a new corded seal plush to tile seut. astrakhan, Persian lamb, ha by lamb, caracul and pony. It is $N a yord—s3 cheaper than the plain seal plush—but not nearly as good looking. Strange to so.v, these fur cloths, it: most cuscs, outwear real furs, and they are almost as warm and thor oughly impervious to weather. COLLA^t CLUETT PEABODYfr COITROYM-Y DECEMBER 19. 1912.
