Trench styles are tho keynote of
fashioning in both men's stilts ami
overcoats. In fact, the "Trem h" is
it. The Trench, Overland is marie ra-
ther loose, falling in straight lines
from the shoulder to a little below
the knee with a loose, full belt and
an inverted pleat down (he back, This
Trench coat is a distinct style deve-
lopment of the season. Some of these
are made with a slit in the Hunt of
the coat through which the belt can
be crossed and In^toned underneath,
thereby making thVfn.it suitable for
the conservative noij who does not
like the idea of having the la-It come
clear around the front. Tiny are
also made with a half-belt in' the
back. The inverted pleat or the pitc h
back Is featured In practically every
novelty coat for litis winter. On
many of the belt effects, chiefly the
Trench coats, large metal bin kh'S are
Used.
Few of the Balmaeaan, 'Ta-sterlieht
or Boxcoats of earlier seavous are
shown for this winter'* wear, l ull
draped back coats without belts ate
sparsely shown and a few I'lsieretle.i,
but these largely for motorists or men
with special preference for this class
of garment. All these overcoat:- ate
made of extremely heavy fabric and
are shown in either solid colors,
large blocked patterns or small mix-
tures. Few stripes or plaids are
noted.
The colors are of the darker and
richer shades, such as browns, greens,
steel grey, burgundy, chocolate and
myrtle. Many of the ruffs have or-
namentia! tabs and some of the most
extreme models have pockets with
inverted pleats. For the most part
the p ii'kets are either large patch
pocket.4 or slash.
The Trench coat influence Is also
shown in the newest development of
the s:o k suit. The.se are also made
with the belt clear around similar
to the overcoats and many have the
tunnel belt effect tit the si le seam i
so the belt, can he buttoned at front
underneath the coat. Home of the
belt ntl-aronml models have buckl-is
iiihlead of buttons. The limits are
pinch back, shirred backs or inverted
pleat back.

These are demonstrated mostly on
pockets and cuffs and are so varied
that, a detailed description would he
futile in the space allotted to this
at t i-de.
For the con-ervalive dienscr there
is an ample variety of plain hack
English models shown. These with
plain or patch pockets.
Lapels are shorter and wider than
last season and come to an acute
point oi u slightly rounded peak.
More rioublebreasteri styles are shown
than have been seen for recent sea-
sons, On these the backs are either
plain, pleated or shirred as described
on tlio other models above.
Vests are, for the most part, collar-
less, buttoned high with a decided
cutaway at the bottom, Nearly till
are single-breasted. The trousers are
made tlong rather straight lines with
cuff bottoms.
Tweeds, Scoteby effects, all manner
of rough goods, basket weaves, cas-
Miiucre. cheviots and serges are the
fabric-. 'Tub cheeks, pencil stripes,
broken stripes, shepherd plaids, check-
ed mixtures and invisible plaids are
the principal pattern schemes. The
colors are varied but run mostly to
the richer and more subdued tones,
Itrown., blues and greens predomin-
ate Fur trimming and fur linings
will be greatly employed in the more
costly overi«oats this winter. The
skins most used are real seal, seal
dyed mnskrat or what is known as
Hudson seal, skunk, mink and I'et'slrn
lamb.
Gladly will womankind hail the
news that eighty per cent of I he new
fall shoes are to have sensible heels.
Do not throw tip your hands, fair
"boulevnrdieres." This does not mean
an uncompromising excuse of leather
one-half inch high. It is simply a
reaction from the extremely high
heels which could be spanned by a
finger. American women are re-
sponding nobly to the war's demand
for economy where economy is neces-
sary, and this new idea in shoes sim-
ply reflects the trend of the times.
For dress wear the shoes sponsor
lieels of leather, slightly . curved. For
istreet and sports wear the eulmte end
three-quarter nich heels prevail. Fven

Fashionable Fall
Table Fittings
Perhaps no room needs to be so
truly th<> home's heart as the dining-
room. Yet how complacently do most
of us, proud housewives though we
be, accept and "let stand," tho furn-
ishing of our dining and side tables,
simple because they happen to be
more or less permanent. Just as we
study innovation and adaptable novel-
ties In the remainder of the house, so
should we especially seek cheer and
concentration of happy colorings for
th« dining-room; that the blame for
heavy hearts may not fall on our
heads because of unhappy choice in
decoration. By wise and thoughtful
expenditure a housekeeper may soon
completely refurnish her table, ami
gradually relegate to the "wash-lady's
cupboard" those particularly edlouatc!
ing to n deeidely more comfortable
"slant front the floor," as a salesman
expressed it the other day.
For the promenade or for dressy
street shoes there are kid and suede
effects made on shapely lusts. Two-
toned boots have about served their
day: and one sees mostly, on wvll-
riressc.- women, shoes of gray, buff,
black, and subdued colors.
For street wear nothing is in more
excellent taste than sports shoes of
black calfskin with either a wing-
tip or no tip at all, Fow heeled
pumps with gray or buff spats are
still very good, and are indeed worn
extensively by women who know.
Ask a shoe salesman If sliver slip-
pers are still good for evening wear.
His answer will no doubt be, "Yes,
pieces which are universally with us,
like the ubiquitous cratchetts.
For the breakfast table a bowl of
Made-tn-America glass, transparent
and in various colorings, may be fill-
ed with fruit, either real or artifical.
This makes a charming centerpiece,
and with matchnlg urns atop the side
tables unifies the color scheme most
effectively.
Apropos of table fittings, what Is
of more important than the light
which shall cause us to reflect in our
own little domestic relations court?
For those who prefer a centre light
to side brackets, there is a new design
in brushed brass—a circle of eight
candles with an all-covering shade of
silk with deep self-toned fringe. The
shade may be ordered In apy color
to match walls and draperies.
For the fortunate owner of old
walnut, or new walnut for that mat-
ter, there are dinner sets of Spode
in soft blue and gray colorings.
Fashions In
Floor Coverings
if you can get them " It is discourag-
ing to those who haven't some from
last year, and wonderful news to
those who are more fortunate. Next
in popularity are slippers to match
frocks, in colored kid or satin. The
new boudoir mules are in black satin
with only shirred ties and a wee
French nosegay 011 each toe. llou e
slippers lined with lamb's wool are
timely and very pretty, with toes of
soft-hued satin.
Hosiery is more sober in tone, but
none the less exquisite in texture.
I.is!c, when one can get it. is better
for foot comfort, but for sheer love-
liness give us silk hose, either pbii-i
or bedecornted. It spells daintiness
like few other perquisites of the cos-
tume.
Between-meal covers of art linen
have stenciled figures in Chinese de-
signs.
Condiment sets in etched glass are
very good, as are new ones In real
Japanese china, enclosed in a lacquer-
ed box.
Luncheon cloths and napkins of
damask with colored borders have
luncheon sets of color-banded china
to harmonize. The combination
tempts a jaded appetite.
We have Ii;i4 fads «f all-over
flowered Brussels carpets; we have
vied with our next door neighbor 'n
bavin? the smoothest laid matting;
we have had "art squares" and
denim creations. But where u house-
keeper thinks of out-Midasing Midas,
she contemplates, with half-shut eyes
the sight of a Persian rug upon her
newly polished floors. We Americans
will never quite be able to detach
from its high place this autocrat of
Kilgdom; though many of us who
are not connoisseurs would just ns
lief have a Kokomo carpet (to be
general) as a Kermanshah. He that
a sit may, The Persian rugs have
deservedly gained their title, and
whenever one is able to thus cover
his floors one is Indeed fortunate, ami
can be .sure he is au fait in his choice.
Kqually in quality and tire buyers
tells us, exceeding in sales, the Ori-
ental crapets, are the rugs of Nigstia
and Pekin. They are indeed worth
dreaming over, and are practically
light-proof, made as they are of per-
manently dyed wool. These rugs are
lovelies; in tho Chinese blue, with
symbols showing rose, jade-green and
yellow-and nearly always a narrow
border of black. Some excellent
American reproductions ate to he bad
at an nth the cost.
In purchasing rugs for the llved-
In rooms, one should first of all Con-
sider harmonious colors, and durabil-
ity. This combination is easier to
find In these days of studied decora-
tion. We used to have to be content
with a good green or a fadeless brown
if we wanted lasting qualities. But
nowadays we can be more or le°s
prodigal In selection because the
choice of durable colors is wide.
In new colorings come our old
favorite Brussels, Axmnisters, also
"American Orientals." There Is a
new rug which comes in all sizes, and
the usual bedroom colors, blue, rose,
gold, green and amethyst. It has
the appearance of a Wilton, with a
heavy pile, but Is a silken fibre and
light enough to be easily cleaned and
handbol. yet of sufficient body to lie
smoothly 011 the waxiest of floors.
The border Is in a deeper tone than
the centre.
Linen rugs, rugs of wool fibre and
rag rugs are equally good for cottage
or bungalow, and wear well.
For the old-fashioned room come
hand-braided rugs in wool, cotton or
silk, There are shops which have
Instructors in this art, which Isn't so
simple as It sounds. Unless one knows
how to conjure the braids, one will
have a bowl Instead of a rug.

When a woollen garment Is torn,

where the seam Is wide enough) and
use the raveled threads for darning

Jarft-U'g
Men, your shoes will cost you more
this fall but you'll become reconciled
to a higher expenditure in the face
of more beautiful styles launched for
the season. More attention has been
paid to the fashion attractiveness in
men's footwear for fail and winter
than in any prevams season for a de-
cade.
The dominating notes in the shaping
of shoes shows an almost total eclipse
of wing lasts and less of the perfora-
tion ornamentation than last season.
Custom lasts seem to have the vogue,
in fact little else is seen even In the
boys' shoes. Except In the dress
shoes, the laced effects are tremen-
dously more popular than the button
treatments. Cordovatjs are exceed-
ingly well placed in the edicts and
the best shops are showing these in
profusion.
It has taken considerable manipu-
lation and expert resourcefulness on
the part of tho manufacturers to sup-
ply durable and good looking foot-
wear for the popular priced trade—
the men who cannot afford, or not
inclined to meet, the rising prices of
hide shoes,
As a compromise to these many im-
itation leather effects have been
launched and most of these can well
be adopted without much sacrifice to
durability, comfort or good appear-
ance. These adaptations are chiefly
manifested by the introduction of fibre
insoles tint! outer soles and fabricoid
tops. There have also been experi-
mentations in compressed paper
which makes a very tough, wear-re-
sisting material for soles and is used
today largely in Germany though this
substitute has not shown Itself yet in
this country to any great degree. For
tops and uppers some manufacturers
have also tried the employment of
shark's hide, but this, too, is still in
the experimental stage and b*it few
have thus far put on the market.
As an economical movement toward
the conservation of leather ,there is a
decided tendency to foster the popu-.
larity of spats and the style is taking
well. In favor of this It may be said
that spats furnish a decidedly dressy
appearance, give opportunity of the
Introduction of color and the man
who has a few pair of spats of differ-
ent shades can maintain a harmony
effect with the changing of his suit
or his hat with spats to match. These
spats are shown *vith peafj, mineral
ivory or composition buttons—and the
materials of felt, melton or kersey
come in shades of gray, steel-gun-
metal, bflr^vn, chocolate, tan, beige,
cream, dark green, black and white.
In the leather and calfskin shoes,
many beautiful color combination ef-
fects are launched—most of them so
costly as to be necessarily confined to
the higher priced lines. In these the
uppers are of buck or calfskin, in rich
colors harmoniously blending jvlth the
lower part of the shoes. These colors
are mostly the same shades mentioned
above in connection with the spats.
One very timely and striking effect
is shown for street wear of khaki
colored leather of the same shade as
the military uniforms.
For evening and dress wear patent
leathers are the thing as nothing yet
has doveloped to displace this vogue
of many years standing.
Patent leathers are also shown pro-
fusely for afternoon dress wear. Thes®

Shem was the eldest son of Noah,
born (Genesis 5. 32) when his father
had attained the age of 500 years.
