The news is in the very air--not because the weather man has confided the prophecy, but because a glorious season of lashions in furs has opened. Dress authorities say there bas never been a time in all their experience when furs alone had such a vogue and literally dominated the entire category of styles. Always, says a fashion writer in the New York Times, a woman who went in for good clothes has had a fnr coat ** •• i'"' :\r V &*#«&>• Jacquette for Debutant* Is Made of Scotch Mole Trimmed With Ermine, in her winter layout. It was the one note of indulgence in her wardrobe; ber pride, and the envy of her less fortunate friends. If her estate chanced to be one of affluence, the coat was sable--the last word in luxury-- for sable, like rubies, bas ever had high value. The possessor of a sealskin coat was once regarded as a person of rank in the world of fashion. One fur wrap was thought, in da.vs past, to be a sufficient blessing for any one person, and not so long ago the shopkeeper who offered fur garments to his rich customers had often to employ all of his salesmanship to persuade them to buy fur Instead of doth for outer wraps. The automobile changed all that, for fnr motor coats became a necessity. Driving In the open, It was impossible to keep warm in anything but furs, and the motor salesman became, quite unconsciously, an ally of the dealer in furs. Enveloping wraps and anklelength coats of the heavier furs were built in modish models and the vogue was established. All of the coarser varieties of fur were nsed for those first utility wraps--raccoon, opossum, coney, ringtail, civet cat--with the Inevitable /Result that these came into >prooilicence and their prices soared. Craze for Furs. that there Is a craze for furs, a oman who goes to buy her winter it selects as many far wraps as formerly sbMHtogfct cbftm of etoth and velvet and tewties. Slie finds need for a long coat fW street and carriage wear--the can lit ft* now being a limousine. This coat may be of sealskin, caracul, broadtail, squirrel or any one of several novelty furs and fur fabrics combined with real fur. Mink is, of course, more costly, but Is popular for fair weather service "and dressy daytime occasions. This fur belongs to a woman of position hi the social world. Her grandmother was proud to own a mink cape or a half-length dolman. The woman of today wears a mink coat. Instep length, or a soft wrap thfifr «w»- pietely covers her. The cost of H would haye dressed the lady of the dolman for a year. The affluent one wears Russian sahte, not for the day only, bnt for all kinds of formal dress as well. Ermine belongs traditionally to the trappings of royalty, and Is ever a thing of beauty and refinement. As an entire garment It was not so popular formerly as now, made Into gorgeous wraps and coats, long and short The most exclusive models In ermine of Parisian origin Are cut full, with wanton use of the fur. Some are the wide wrap-around garments. Some have a flaring flounce, are paneled or scalloped. a particularly gorgeous wrap of ermine a circular cape of the fur falls from the neck to a low waistline, richness upon richness. In another style of uncommon grace the upper part of the wrap is draped about the shoulders nt one side, where the fur drops in a point and is finished with a long, heavy tassel of silk. In many of the new styles fur is draped as freely as if It were silk or any lighter material. For the ball and dinner gown made of the levely new fabrics In delicate shades, a wrap of ermine Is the most suitable of all furs. But human fickleness that so easily transfers patronagehas lost some of its passion for ermine as a dressy wrap, since the fur has been so generally used for more common wear in street coats, and so widely and cleverly imitated. Ermine Is essentially a far for youth and the most engaging garments made of it are shown In the misses' and Junior models. Some are long, to wear over the dainty dance frocks. Others, in the short jacquette style, have a decided cachet. One among the many charming samples of these little coats Is made of black velvet and lined with ermine, a narrow band of the fur showing all around the edge, about the collar and the cuffs. The novel feature of this model Is that It may be worn inside out, which the flapper finds amusing. Sealskin has come back into Its own and Is more popular this season than it has been for many years. Not the same old coat In stereotyped model that endured so long, but new styles that have decided elegance. The very latest sealskin coat is made with no other fur and no trimmings, its skins ai"e selected and the lines of the garment are quite new. Designers have shown the keenest interest in handling this fur and have presented several models of distinction. One Is a coat cut In straight lines from the throat to the instep, the general build of the garment being boxy, the sleeves straight and rather wide. A voluminous collar that crushes above the chin, and wide, slightly flaring cuffs are added. A dressier model la seal Is cut after the plan of a cloth coat, the skirt, In three tiers, being attached to the waist. One other is a loose wrap-around with wide sleeves and deep, soft collar. On this an ornament of bronse beads with two heavy tassels forms the clasp over one hfp. Mat Alexandria Believe fabtim Vse AM£i&er to Spray ?

WH so smooth and uniform that it works out with unusual success in the deep flounce model, one having a slightly flaring skirt that ripples all around, with self-fur collar and cuffs. Some especially handsome wraps In Seal are trimmed with skunk snd other furs, one model having a band of skunk around the bottom of the straight coat, extending In a narrowing strip up the front, ending low at the waist. Another sealskin has a cape of its own fur, a band of fox outlining the edge and forming the collar and cuffs; but this has an overtrimmed appearance snd is teas smart than the garments of all-seal. A new favorite has been elected, and chinchilla Is now the choice of*all the furs for evening. It Is not Inexpensive, b 8 everyone knows, and it Js sdaptable to the needs of any age. Chinchilla becomes a dowager as well as It does a debutante, though It must be said that its soft grays harmonize most happijy with a rose-leaf complexion. Chlnehllla Is compensating to the modiste, for It combines well with other furs. It makes the motif stytMh collars and cuffs, for example, on a coat of broadtail or caracul. As allover garments most of the ipodels In chinchilla are rather simple in line, because the fur itself Is deep and the shadings in its color are very beautiful. The fur neckpiece is no longer ti^e piece de resistance in a fashionable toilet. As a protection, worn with a suit or a one-piece dress. It is almost indispensable, but as a fad it has passed and is now merely an article of utility. The little sable choker Is always smart and is the best style of all when just a touch of tar Is required. The foxes are beautiful thlii season, particularly the orange, red and russet, which at$ labeled with fancy names. ' -'HiMdrla, W. Va.--The'*wt""« ether sprayed Into rooms by burglars, who enter later and rifle homes, Is believed by the Alexandria police to solve the. mystery surrounding recent robberies in the outlying districts. James Cramp, a railroad fireman of Cottage Parte, where several houses have been entered recently, was awakened and saw a man standing outside bis bedroom window spraying some drug on him from an atomiser. Crump sprang from bed, and the Intruder disappeared. In many cases persons have found on arising In the morning that their bedrooms had been entered and clothing and other articles of value taken. In several instances the victims have complained of headaches and a dull feeling and more than (me has expressed the opinion that he had been drugged. In a recent case entry was effected through a window, the sill of which was 6 feet from the ground. The tibuse had been newly painted, and there whs no mark on the fresh paint to Indicate that a person had climbed in the window, although the screen had been removed. This led the police to believe that there were two burglars, one of whom assisted UM other in reaching the window. Tint Any Worn, Shabby msnt or Drapery. Confidence Man Makes Newlywetis His Victims Detroit--Here's a new one showing that the chap who never worked and never will has a fertile brain and is able to keep abreast of the times with new swindling methods far ahead at the clumsy hijacking way of the low-down practitioner. Be Is evidently a man of refinement and a student of the society page of the Sunday newspaper, for his victims are newly weds. A short time ago the daughter o( ^ well-to-do business man was married to the son of another in this city and the happy couple started on a trip that was to land them In New York In sbout a week. On Sunday afternoon the bride's father received a distress message from his new son-in-law asking that $200 be wired to him at a New York hotel. The telegram said: "Will explain by letter and retnra money Tuesday." The money was seat Monday and a little later a letter was received from the bride indicating that they would not reach New York for several days. The business man at once got busy and stopped payment In time to frustrate the swindler. Later It was found that the trick had been successfully worked on two other Detroit couples, one for $2.10 In Cleveland and another for $200 1n Cincinnati. Lost Boy Is Found With His Arms Around Pet Dog Chicago.--Vernon Roeske, ten years old, who ran a way from his home, 3042 Lyndale avenue, when his father demanded him to get rtd of a foundling collie dog, was found the next day by Policeman Claude Alexander sleeping In a doorway at California and Milwaukee avenues, his arms clasped tightly about .the dog. According to John Boeska, the dither, Vernon found the dog two weeks ago and named It Tootsle. "Sunday I told him to get rid of the dog," the father said. "Yesterday hs left home wlth^ Tootsle and didn't come back." Returned home by the police, Vernon promised never to run away again. Tootsle is now a permanent la the Roeske family.

Mothers Can Make Hats for little Daughters Any woman who likes to ma^y ber , .children's hats can make a very modish and alluring one. Two lengths of black velvet ribbon, four Inches wide (more or less, according to whether the child's face Is round or slender), is used. These lengths are gathered along one edge to form the brim of the hat. Between the two ribbons at the outer edge a wire is tacked. The crown of the hat Is made by making 12 pieces of two-Inch faille ribbon, each 18 inches long, and laying them on a circle of silk one foot in diameter, each piece crossing in the center, where they are tacked together with a flat ornament of ribbon. Where the ribbons meet in the center of the crown there will be an unusual amount of thickness, which can be eliminated by cutting some of the under section of ribbon out. or can be lsft and raised still further by a little embroidery, which will give a unique effect. A wire is fitted around Uie child's sii head to get the size of the crown. The brim is now sewed to this wire, and It is pulled down on the head to form a becoming frame for the face. The ribbon wheel is then laid on top of the head, and each ribbon is caught ~to the inside circle on the brim just closely enough to allow a becoming fullness to the crown. The remainder of each ribbon length Is carried over the brim, swinging just over the outer edge. Those ends are cut In points and form a petal-like frame for the face. It Is a conservative style and becoming to almost any childish face. The only regulation required Is the width of the brim and the length of the ribbons which trim the crown. . - Man T4kes Own life in Los Angeles Morgue Los Angeles, Qa'---John H.
