One of these squirrel wraps, just from Paris, shows the Spanish innuence lor It is draped like a lace shawl, one side crossing over the other with an irregular line at the lower edge. A squirrel neckpiece and-muff are pictured. The muff is In the melon shape, or barrel shape favored for this winter, and the neckpiece seems to be tied In a smart bow a new effect In fur. Another picture shows a cravat and muff of sealskin and here th exclusive seal is worn with a formal hat and handsome tailored Vilt. Simple as the little seal cravat is. one cannot dispute its smartness and Its distinction. It Is accompanied by a rather small muff a site fancied for the coming season. Two very attractive "wraps are Illustrated. One Is of dyed squirrel with an ample supply of brushes and paws; the other wrap Is of moleskin and Is in three tiers, the arms emerging under the second tier.
