AH, FUR COATS HAVE REAL COMPENSATION
Your Neighbor Can’t Tell How Much They Cost, Say Experts. How can a woman judge the value of her neighbor’s new fur coat? “There’s no ww-r,'’ declared one expert furrier. “Oh, yes—one. Let her keep her <sye on that fur coat. Time will tell. A good fur coat will hold its own; an inferior one —well, what’s uglier than a worn, imita* tion fur?” Aside from the time test, only years of experience in the handling of furs would enable a woman to size up her neighbor’s resplendent new fur garment and remark (to another neighbor): “Sealskin —her coat? Huh! Dyed rabbit!” , Snippy Fur Furriers declare they gain a sort of intuitive sense in fur knowledge Perhaps the fact that, as someone says, furs have personality, may account for this. Haven’t you ever owned a fur piece that you simply despised and kept on wearing just because you had ‘to get your money 8 worth of wear out of it?’ Very likely, the animal that grew that fur was a snippy thing that wouldn't speak to "B’rer Rabbit” and switched her elegant fur tail whenever she passed her fellow raccoons. If milady insists upon passing judgment upon her neighbor's fur coat, there are a few points that she may stow away in her memory, flood furs are thicker, fuller haired, softer, than cheap ones- That’s about all the knowledge that discussion with furriers will “get over” to the average person; it takes years to know furs. “In the old country I worked four years at 50 cents a week, just to get foundation knowledge,” remarked William Marks, furrier at

Selig's. Furriers judge skins by the feel, weight, color, sheen. Tricks of Trade The confident declaration that two muskrat skins lying on the counter were a perfect match brought a laugh from one furrier. He held ihe skins level with the eye. “Guard hairs” on one were twice as long as on the other, and the furrier saw half _a dozen other differences. There’s a lot of clever imitations of Dame Nature's handiwork. A striking leopard skin coat may have the spots painted on (it’s a trade secret, so you can’t take lessons in furpainting) or a perfectly stunning taupe fox may be sporting numberless, long badger hairs, stuck on with glue. But milady or her neighbor need take no chances on these imitations. Ts she goes to a reliable merchant, he'll frankly tell her that the mink coat to which she aspired may be Chinese weasel or dyed rabbit. Better Business Bureaus expect the information to be given; merchants are glad to comply. No Skin Game “The fur business used to be a ‘skin game' indeed,” remarked Max Dessau, manager at Selig's. “But now no business is more affected by the ‘truth in advertising' movement, than the legitimate fur trade of today.” The most expensive fur coat on record, was that of Mrs. William Corey (nee Mabel Gilman) wife of the steel magnate. This coat was sable and cost $75,000. A number of Indianapolis women have fur coats, which while mere trifles beside Mrs. Corey’s famous wrap, would yet purchase a small house and lot, with a place for the flivyer. But the women who buy such coats, must depend upon the knowledge and reliability of her furrier. She can’t trust her own eyes. "Furs are harder to judge than diamonds,” one furrier remarked. So whej) you see your neighbor in anew fur coat, it may be a genuine seal —and it may not be. COUNCIL WILL CONVENE Special Meeting to Appropriate Funds Will Be Monday Night.
