Expensive Sables.

The fashionable fur this winter in Paris will be sable, which consequently has enormously increased in price. There is always a demand for black sables; the difficulty is to get them. Since the approach of the cold season they have become 20 to 30 per cent dearer. One of the most expensive sables sold by a fashionable house in Paris this season cost £2,400, but they have reached as high as £4,000.
