A PROFITABLE FAD.

ance diminishes with startling rapid
ity. Cause.-The boom In buckles The
dainty summer shirt waists are, In
measure, responsible for the buckle
craze. They require belt, and the
belt requires n buckle.
The silver buckles are the most pop
ular. They are long and narrow, or
round and much ornamented Some
are Of tilagree, while others are plain
or oxidzed. Buckles of black enamel,
inlaid with silver or gold are effective
upon n dellcately tinted ribbon belt.
The gold buckles are beautiful enough
to warrant the price at which they
are sold. one represents gold hoop,
around which snake has twincd its
body The eyes are glistcning Cmpr-
aids.
Plain gold buckles have the owners
monogram engraved upon them.
Among the newest silver buckles are
those inlaid with pale blue enamel
Delicate buckles Of tortoise shell are
also seen this year inlaid with gold
and enamel. The buckles which adorn
the tennis belt are sure somewhere
to show a racquet. A new buckle to
be worn with a yachting gown Is Of
Roman gold shaped like an anchor,
with bronzed cords coiled about 1t.
A dainty buckle attached to white
