FEATURES Smart and Beautiful Fur Coats BY MARY MARSHALL. Fur dealers and their sales folk ob- serve that the woman who buys a fur garment usually gives pre-eminent attention to the. collar. If she doesn't like the collar of a garment that Is tried on she takes it off and will not be persuaded to change her mind. If she likes thecollar sie may be per- suaded to buy a garment quite a bit more expensive than her husband and her better judgment counseled her to spend, and of an entirely different fur om the one she had previously set- 4 upon. The reason for this is not hard to discover. The fur collar frames the tace and on the collar depends al- most entirely the becomingness of the zarment. The collar used on many of the finest fur garments this Autumn and Winter that appeals to most wom- n as especially becoming is shown in the sketches. It is a large skrirred collar that rises from the shoulders almost to the top of the head. There is usually a band around the shoul- ders making the beginning of the col- lar, and this is sometimes of match- ing, sometimes of contrasting fur. This {s an interesting example of the present-ddy trend in the making of fur garments. A well known de- signer of fur garments recently com- mented on the fact that only a few years ago furriers took “their designs for fur garments from the models cre- ated by the designers of cloth coatsh and cloaks.” The results were any- ing but attractive. “Most of us ro- 11 the ugly ‘leg-of-mutton’ sleeves wh made the wearer appear as if she had the shoulders of a coal heav- r. and only a few seasons ago the umbersome dolman sleeves made it almost impossible for a woman to lft r arm whil inz a fur coat.” Nowadays the problem of the fur- s to conform to the ger mode without act >th models in the rments. To produce the effect ight scantiness pelts are worked | p in straight narrow strips that give he illusion of greater slenderness han really exists, and the long- vaisted cffect is produced by band- s of matching or contrasting fur ed about the hips.

It meant that that dog had found his scent and was aftor him. Reddy ran his best, but that dog was gaining fast. The scent was so strong and fresh that it was easy for that dog to follow.
