top Of the boot is straight cut.
All of these styles come in the laced
a.ot also. but the buttoned is considered
2 triAe smarter.
Another style has the last cut in rather
peculiar fashion. It is very wide over
te ball. and terminates at the back OF
he ball, each side in q square point.
Then the last narrows in suddenly at
.1e shank. This is said to give the ball
n the foot plenty of room, while the
rlrroWness farther back prevents the
,cot from sliding about and causing any
irritation from friction.
The sealskin boot, which was new last
tan. has not met with any large degree
IF success; although it makes a very
tetty foot covering.
Ties follow very much along the line

assigned for street wear.
The slipper is always very sharply
aouted but no longer possesses the high
louis Quinze heel. In one respect, at
least, We have grown more sensible.
Where the Louis heel is worn, it is only
30 inch and three-eighths in hight. The
fashionable slipper is of satin, patent
1fher or bronze. A dainty little bronze
affair has a tiny buckle of the same
.hade right in front of the strap, which
long, wide Y. Straps are wider than
heretofore. The three straps, straight
across are also being revived.
OF course there always are the slippers

For some reason there has been a great
-'mand for corn colored and pale yellow
atm slippers. The low French heel is
z ihe greater number of them.
