There is 4 mania for buckles. Generally when
the buckle mania breaks out one size or design
is more popular than any other, but not 50 now.
Big buckles and little buckles. buckles that are
bright and buckles that are dull are in equal
demand. Many a young woman has converted
her graudmother's old gold garter buckles into

The Ascot tie is a fad among women. IL looks

The most stylish tie OF this kind is made Of

gown. 1t is now rs bad taste for n woman TO

one. Leather merchants are bringing out a
great variety OF chatelaine bags. purses. and
