Shall we go back TO white stockings
and black or bronze slippers? They
were worn when the 1880 dresses we
copy so freely and often closely were
worn. The little slippers were held on
by narrow elasticS crossed on the in
step, and very pretty the little feet
looked. But such slippers have no
heels, and the modern woman couldn't
keep her balance without them. With
all the outcry against the disadvantages
OF the present, we have much to be
grateful for. At least we have not the
hustle. and there seems no chance of it.
Besides we have not those murderous
