WEARING OF SUMMER FURS

Style Is In Favor With Many of the Smartest Women Until First of June. The wearing of furs during the warmer months has become an accepted fashion. Until the first of June one sees furs worn by the smartest women all up and down Fifth avenue, says a New York fashion writer. Of course, “summer furs” are more or less a fad and are adopted by the less conservative, but the woman of discretion need not choose furs of this type. Fisher, pointed fox in black or taupe, mink, Hudson bay sable and American ermine in white, are well adapted to this time of year. The prices are usually good, because the great rush of fur buying is over at this time,-and the furriers have skins which they can afford to sell at reduced figures. These models offer a good opportunity to buy a small piece which is sure to be in fashion next season. A smart scarf of fisher or Hudson sable looks very well with a simple tailored costume.
