_EADS AND FASHIONS
Much wool embroidery is used on
the new fall; costume.
Printed silks are a favorite mater-
ial for afternoon costumes.
There are many scarf-trimmed hats
among the new models.
For every kind of sport the brilli-
M tr” ygmwth towards the “orth ant-hued silk knitted ol' wool cont is
and growing well within the Arctic
circle in the Mackenzie river basin
and in the Yukon.
It is this wide range which contri-
butes largely to its _present import-
ance, but the qualities of the woo
promise n still greater use in the fu-
ture, for it is a strong, hard, .fine
grained wood which 'takes a high
polish and can be stained to imitate
the more expensive woods, such ni
mahogany, cherry or walnut.
"Wavy" 'birch is an accidental
form' due to( cross-grain,_ somewhat
similar to “curly" maple, and is
highly prized for ornamental work.
In unother recent report issued by
the forestry branch on the “Wood-
Using Industries of Ontario," birch
is reported as being used in the man-
ufacture of over one hundred dificr-
cnt articles, ranging from ships to
spools. ~Asafuzl.-_-wood~tt-takes first
place and it is also one of the prin-
cipal woods used in wood-distillation
while its only objection as a pulp-
wood is that it is too heavy to be
readily floated down the streams to
the mills.
Birch also formed 28 percent. of the
square timber exported from Can-
ada in 1912, according to the bulle-
tin on the production of lumber
square timber, latb and shingles for
that year, which has been pl'0l>8l`°d
by the factory branch and will
shortly be -issued. The remainder
was largely white pine. Until 1912
the export of square timber had
steadily decreased since 1877. but
last yenrshowed a surprising in-
crease, the quantity exported in 1912
exceeding that exported in the D1‘¢V-
ioua year by almost 90 per cent.

Startlingly short, almost showing

just made its appearance on Fifth

vet cloth. It was made with a two
tiered skirt, the upper tier _slightly
flaring. The lower edge of the skirt
disclosed the lawn colored uppers ol
her high black shoes. The coat edge,
Incroyable in front and disclosing Ll
pest, dropped at the sides and back
to make an added tier to the two on
the skirt, spacing at about the same
distance. But it was the neck of the
coat that had another ultra chic de-
tail. It was frankly decollete in the

AMERICAN BAN ON AIGRETTE
r
(From the European Edition of the n
Herald) 0
At the present moment therc is a
sensational revolution in but fash-
lans on account of the prohibition
of aigrettes in America. ‘This has not
seen caused by any "sumptuary
.aw,” as might have been supposed
.rom the rising price of nigrettes. It
.s a law qt protection for the lovely
.virds which are the victims of femin-
ine vanity.
It is no use struggling against the
law, and the fashionable American
women will have to be contented to
;ome and share the social life of
Earls if they are bent on wearing aig-
rettes. However this may be, the
nillions of the rue de la Paix, who
create so many models for the United
states, must find some other trim-
:ning for expensive hats, arid that is
why ostrich feathers will again come
into fashion. It is to be hoped at
least that the ostracism of aigrettes
in the United States will have the
affect of lowering the prices for Pari-
slans, and this should follow from
the law of supply and dema-adn
The same fantasy which reigns
among dresses may now be found in
hats] where all sorts of original and
charming ideas may be noticed. The
“line” and the shape of ahat are
what constitute all its chic, as well
is the manner in which the trimming
is placed. But the latter is a secon-
lary nllair. Of course, it is true
that with five or six hundred francs’
worth of afgrettes a smarter hat
could be made than with a simple
ribbon-but the chic-the gout, if one
may say so-of a hat is revealed in
the manner in which it is put togeth-
er, rather than by the intrinsic value
of the ornaments.
This is so true that the practical
eye accustomed to the Parisian hall-
mark will bc much more attracted by
the more simple hat designed 'bv Home
big milliner than by ahat over-
loaded wlth_ expensive trimmings
which have been bought in a second
or third rate shop. The chic of
hat is something that can neither be
described nor defined. The big mil-
liners _manage to achieve an effect
with "un rein,” and this is the sec-
ret of their art and the reason »
their success. `
At present exquisite little toques
are being made with the crown all ln
tiny feather tips very tightly curled
and the'brjfm~ln draped velvet-two
veltet loops tied "en marmotte'” give
a ffyaway line to the coiflure, and
'nothing could be more simple V or
more charming, but one must know
-how to do it. A soft beret of chin-

_There are many women in this
world, handsome in features, perfect
in form, graceful of movement and
brilliant of mind, who keep in the
background just because they have
thin. colorless and lustreless hair.
In Paris they understand things a-
bout the hair that we do not know in
this country. It was a Parisian, Dr.
Bangernond who discovered that thin
hair and dandruf! are caused by a
microbe.
It is Parisian Sage that proves Dr.
Sangerbond’s theory to be correct,
for it is rigidly guaranteed to kill the
dandrnfi germ and cure dandruff, fall-
ing hair and itching scalp in two
weeks or money back.
Parisian Sage is a delightfully
pleasant hair dressing and invigore-
tor; it is not sticky or greasy. It
should be used freely_in Spring and
Sumner as it keeps the scalp clean

A REAL PRINCE REKINDLES I
THE ABI-IES OF ROMANCE.,
If George Barr McCutcheon ever
meets Prince Alexis Karageorgevitch
of Servia, the spinner of urustarslsn
romances will probably excleim:
Hey, you! uet back into my novell"
ln his own humble way prince Ale-
xis has striven to show that best sel-
lers are no stranger than truth. He
arrived at New rork on the steam-
snlp "Olympic" with his American
wire, who was formerly Mrs. Huger
Pratt, of Cleveland. and told how he
had shaved oil his mustache in order
to taife his place in the ranks of the
Eervia army as a common soldier. ‘
“First of all I am a Scrvian citi-
zen," he said, “and next to Servian
prince. My experience has always
been with executive things, not with
military aflairs. I was ii. green sol-
dier. if they had made inc a general,
of what use would 1 have been? 1|
wanted to go out with the men of
Eervia and iight the Turk, who has
been our enemy for so mnny hundreds
of years. |
lt was in the Ritz-Carlton that the
prince taid this, but so much of it
had the ring of Chapter X. and the
man himself seemed so like the hero-
es that the illustrators strive to,
draw, that one would not have
been surprised to see swordsmen dash'
into the room ol: hear mueiictry lust
below in Madison avenue.
Tue prince smiled. “That wasn’t
so Dad for an old nznn, was it?" he
asked. “You know I‘m fifty-four." |
kerhaps the prince comessed his
age because he looks something under
.forty and has a build which u. mov-
ing picture actor would envy. '.\‘he
man from Servia is not big, but
there is no waste space about him.

“une year ago," said Prince Alexis,
"wo fought the battle of Monastir.
When the Turks saw us coming they
cried: ‘The Goseacksl The Cos-
sacas!‘ Our men could ride, you
know, and they took ua for Russians..
lt was fine enough while the fighting
lasted, but awfully wct in the tents
after everything was all over. That
was the hardest part for us. You
know, we Servians are full of blood
and temperament, and all that. Sav-

"Uur soldiers did finely, but, after
all, it was not the army so much
which won the war as the whole coun-
try. Every person in the kingdom
who could walk, limp or crawl, help-
ed to carry provisions to the front
for the men. That was the way Ser-
vin. was aroused." |
‘Prince Alexis confessed that the war
had solved very few of the problems
of the Balkans. “Tho losses of the
Turks were trifling if you consider
what an almost inexhaustible reser-
voir of men there is in Asiatic Tur-
key," he said. "Tho allies will get
together again, 1 hope, in spite of
the blunders that have been made."
Prince Alexis is the bead of the
house of Karageorgevitch, and if the
law of primogenituro had obtained
he would be King of Serviu_ He has
not been in America for fourteen
years, and plans to visit California‘
this time and seo some of the scenic
wonders of the country.
“After all," he remarked, “the
citiea_are all alike.”
American scenery will have to put
on its finest rninlents if it is to
please the prince, for he is certain
now that of all the countries in the
world Servfa is the most beautiful.
“Switzerland is to my land only a
miniature," he explained.
Prince Alexis intends to stay in
New York long enough to take in the
Horse Show.

VILI.-EFRANUHE, Dec. 3, (Spec-
ial)-Rear Admiral Charles J. Bad-
ger, before leaving yesterday on
board the flagship Wyoming on the
return voyage to the United States
of the American squadron, saidz- ‘
“Thin cruise ofa portion of the
Atlantic fleet of the United States
Navy to Mediterranean ports ima
been a most pleasant and successful
one. Everywhere the greatelt cordl-
ality and courtest were shown to the
officers and mea by the authorities
and residents of the ports visited. '
“The object of the cruise was to
afford an opportunity to the officers
and enlisted men to see foreign coun-
tries and to broaden their experience.
This opportunity has been fully util-
ized and the officers and men of . the
American fleet carry home with them
the highest appreciation of the kind-
ness they have received everywhere."

HINTS IN VELVET
Velvet is having 8. veritable triumph
this winter for fashionable dress. It
is not restricted to the plain cotton
or silk velvet, either; there is 8, vel-
vet, either; there is a. delightful
choice of magnificent and sumptuous
weaves and designs. The woollen vel-
vets, too, have entered into competi-
tion with thnsc of cotton and silk;
velours :le laine and duvetyn have
been the accepted materials for the
winter tailored suit and w\‘8l7. BI-

made' up delightfully with thaplsfn

coats, the Russian blouses combined
with plain skirts, deeply herrrlndd
with fur or fur cloth bands or the
enveloping mantle wriaps.
Plain velvet, charm ugly braided in
'discrete designs, makesthe more coll-
servative dresses and coats. If_ the
top of the dress is not of matching
chiffon, posed over s, pale rose mous-
ssllne de sole, the newer style of
having the top of the robe also of
velvet is saved from its rather thick
heavy look by opening wide tho V-
shaped fronts, filling in the space
with a surplice of lace or tulle in
ivory or ecru tint, made soft and
filmy by little ruffies, Of colorings.
Russian green is perhaps the fa.vo'r-

There are several shades of seal and

fitted appearance of this drcos is
the effect most sought by the fash-
ionable dressmaker today.
