Tae “feel” of n 5 warm, and it is wonderful that anything so light could afford so much protection. It seems as if heat resides in them in scme way. “Natural marabout” is the term ap- plied to a silly down of a dark brown- ish gray color. It is made up with dyed or natural ostrich, or by itself, into stoles and capes and fancy neck pleces and into large flat muffs. White marabout is also natural. Besides these, it is dyed into all the fashion- able colors. It is used in bands for trimming and has before it a very successful season. It will be used in place of fur for trimming hats and gowns. A very handsome and showy set is pictured here, suitable for evenirg or for other very dressy wear. Wite marabout and white ostrich with black ostrich make up the set. The scarf is extra long, finished with tails made of the marabout. The muff is an ex- [larabout Feathers in Lieu of Furs. | cellent example of the usual type of | marabout muffs. Plain shapes are they are much prettier when undeco- rated. In spite of its airy and fragile ap- pearance, marabout wears very well. It is very much less expensive than fur. If one has only a small amount of money to invest in a neck piece and muff marabout makes a much better showing than furs at the same price. Neckpieces may be had at from $8 to $18, and muffs at about the same price. Extra long and fine pieces, or a liberal use of ostrich trimming, brings the price up. For $16 a very fairlooking set may be bought either plain or with some os- trich trimming. In the fancy colors and in white with ostrich trimming, prices are higher. A set with an extravagant length of stole and much fine ostrich, like that pictured, sells for not less than $50. Even so, there is no fur that will answer the same purpose which costs anything like as little.
