Willi the bright, crisp October ? lit > m here, New York seem* more alive than ever, ami the fashionable thoroughfare* of llio great city are tilled with crowds In now at tire which is exceedingly muart, Hv cryoue wants now clothes when au tumn comes, ami everyone seem* to have now clothes. * The long top coals ami one-piece (tresses which art* worn under them, strike one as being of most Importance tli)s season, though tailored suits are al so well represented. The coats look so warm ami comfortable with their large high collars that button snugly to the neck. Many of the collars are uuule of fur or fur elotli, which may he hail In such good Imitations that only very ex* ]?erleneod eye couhl tell the difference The materials for coats this season are simply irresistible, so beautiful are they in the rich, warm colors ami so wonderfully soft In texture. Without being heavy or clumsy, they are warm enough for the cj?ol weather. The New Coats Have High Collars. Among the very newest materials arc Bolivia cloth, a rich fabric with a sheen and tinrclla, a sofl open "weave somewhat like homespun hut. Tory much more attractive ami liner in quality. In addition to these, there are tin* more well-known wool velours, wool plushes and wool velvets as well as many other coatings. A plea slug note In the deveopment of the new coats for fait is the use of bright-ool- j ored linings. A very handsome import ed coat of navy blue serge had a bright cerise lining which showed when the fronts were rolled open. Glimpses of collar and cuffs. Other charming com binations that have been seen in the way of linings, are brown with light blue, and black with cerise. Like the t*oat in the illustration, a great many models show the straight closing down the front with graoefuiiy curved lines at the sides. The back and sides are belted. Some models, how ever, are, on the , contrary, very full at the back and have no belt at all to confine the fullness which starts at the nock and increases as the coat lengthens. Fur collars are particular ly good style this fall. Hudson seal, beaver, kolinsky, titoh, skunk and rab bit are the pelts most used. Very of ten the cuffs are of matching fur. too, but In many instances only the collar is of fur. A very novel Idea that has been brought from I'arls is the quilted effect on suits; and even waists have been made In this style. The quilting Is done by machine-stitching in pretty do signs rather than in straight linen, and tho effect is so different from anything else that it has been very much ad mired. Satin and uilk suits are made with deep hands of quilting at the edges of both skirts and coats. An other way of using the quilting hlea is in touches on cqllar, i>oekets and cuffs. Some ^quilted waists have been further decorated with French knots in heavy yarn. Some of these waists are intended especially for sports.

He Is the engineer among the ani mals. and what lie <)ocs not know about building dams, limiting logs, and cut ting canals could be put In a veVy small book Indeed, lu the economy of beaver life, water plays a most lmi?or I a nt part ; the front door of his house must be under water, and every time he i Tosses his thrcshhold, he must cross it wringing wet. Such a thing as coining home with dry clothes, has i never happened in the beaver family up to this time. So the llrst thing he d<H\s is to insure a regular, and a plen tiful supply of water, doing a little below where he Intends to build, he plans a dam that will hack sufficient water for all his needs. If there Is a tree growing near the stream against which he can brace one end of the dam, so much the better. He and his fellow workman then proceed to gnaw down a tree; anywhere from one to two f*-et In diameter, and throw it aciuss the branches. Then they cut off the branches, tirst i>eoltng off the bark for food, into lengths to three or four feet, and carefully place these, one end In the mud at the bottom, and the other leaning against the fallen tree. After a sufficient number have thus been placed they cut and i>ecl other sticks and work them in waattle-fashlon at right angles with the first. They then bring mud, stones, twigs and grass, and with -tiie.se chink up all the cracks as water proof as a stone wall. As soon as the dam is complete, and the lake in place, the beavers turn their attention t.o home building. A sub stantial floor of a circular shape is llrst laid of the same materials as went Into the dam, and from this thick walls are constructed and a home shaped or fashioned. l:pon this two other stories are placed, the whole, when finished, looks very much like an adobe wigwam. This dwelling is plas tered within, and without with mud reinforced with twigs and grass. The first story of tills house is under water, and the other two above so that If the water should rise from any cause, they could easily move upstairs, thus keep ing their bedding and furniture dry. They make two ojKMiings leading down Into the stream, one for general use in coming and going, and the other leads down into the part of the house where all refuse or anything that might soil or damage the upi>er apartments, is carried. A third opening is cut much higher up in case the pond should freeze over and shut them In from^ be low. - These half submerged dwellings are divided into different apartments, according to the number of individuals In the company. These separate rooms are ay connected by passage ways, and each room has a private bath, Just outside of the front door. The Interior of thefte, community^ homes is kept as neat as a pin, and each boarder has his own partleular ls?d of dried leaves, grass, and no matter how severe tlifc wi liter,' or how high the snow may be banked over their roof, the beavers are as 'snug as a bug in a nig.' They have stored up plenty of bark and fr??sh twigs for their winter use, and If these should run short, there Is lots more in the woodyard at the bottom of Telephone No. 14. HELLO!
