COLORS FOR COLD WEATHER

London Journal, Humorously Bars Two on Account of the War— Some Others to Be Popular.

The one color that we may be Sure will not be popular is Saxe blue; we shall have to renam e It French blue. The cornflower will also incur some disfavor, because it is said to be the kaiser’s favorite flo|wer. Brown will be a very favorite Shade, and purple of the red wine tones which are warm and becoming is being looked upon with much favor. That black must be largely worn we know; there have been times, howfeverj when the somber hue has been assumed by smart women from choice. Tawny tones we shall undoubtedly Bee many of, and also deep crimsons. Women are taking, happily, their usual wholesome interest in their clothes and there la no reason to suppose that our sex will not look as nice and smart and well turned out in war time as in peace time. —London Sketch.
