WINTER SPORTS KIT.

What are winter sportswomen |

wearing?

Well, very few women wear skirts nowadays; trouser suits and jodhpurs enjoy a greater vogue than ever this year. This garment is particularly popular with the professionals and semi- professionals and those who rather fancy their prowess, and} they prefer black or khaki.

There are gay colours, too, but these have been selected by the philanderers in sport, who spend mora. time in the ballrooms at night than on the snowcovered slopes by day.

MUFF BACK,

Once winter brought the muff as inevitably as it did the snow, but for the last few seasons women have been so busy holding their coats and wraps together in front they didn't have their hands free to hold one. Now that coats again fasten, and hands are empty, the muff is due to re- turn. This one is of seal and armine, and goes very beauti fully with the black velvet and ermine coat.

Life is very short. We can't afford to squander the two re- sources which make it mosti pleasant. our good health and our! good looks. Consequently we can't indulge in worrying any more than we can in too much rich food or too riotous living.
