FRIILs OF FASHION.
Ideas In Dress fer fhe
Present and COFiRR
seIsona.

Alpaca in the shades Of dark blue,
brown and gray is a popular material
for travelling dresses
Louis XVI. muslins with bouquets OF
flowers between stripes of lace inser-
ton are the daintiest fabrics imagin-
able. They are trimmed with lace and
made up with overdresses and fchUs
much as they were 50 years ago.
Evening gowns in thin materials are
lavishIv trimmed with wreaths and
vines Of flowers made Of pulled net or
chiffon and mixed with lace applique.
Turbans made Of glossy laceIike
straw and trimmed with viOlets and
roses are one variety Of headgear, while
still another is a lOw-erOwned broad
brimmed hat trimmed with spring flow
ers and plated lace.
White gloves are going out Of fash
ion, and in their place we have the deli
cate tinted shades Of tan, cream, pink
and tea color in suede. Dark tan suede
gloves are worn for shopping
Satin fOulards and India silks are to
be worn this season more than ever be
fore. Blue is perhaps the most pOpu-
lar color, but it is a much brighter blue
than the old navy worn so long. A sPe-
cial novelty in these silks shows Per
sian stripe alternating with a plain
stripe Of blue, red, green or black In
some patterns the plain stripe is dotted
over with small polka dots, but the ef-
feet in either case is very stylish These
silks are used for entire gowns, and
are especially pretty for the tucked
shirt waists.
Black and white effects are evidently
a feature Of dress not to be overlooked
this season as something in that line is
brought out in nearly every gown.
There are pretty braids for trimming
in black and white mixtures. white
laces run with a black thread, and
black and white combinations Of every
conceivable kind. Narrow black vel
vet ribbon, gathered on the edge Of
heavy cream lace insertion, is very ef-
fective, and tiny ruches of black chif-
fOn and net are also used for this Pur-
pose
a novel idea for the bridesmaids COS
tune is a long tulle veil fastened at one
side Of the hair with a rOsette of tulle
and an aigrette, or bunch Of flowers,
presumably violets, as violet seems to
be a fashionable color for weddings.
Decorated quilts are a striking fea-
ture in millinery. They have bIOssOmed
out in polka dots, golf sticks, tennis
rackets and all sorts Of suggestive de-
signs.
Perforated piques are one Of the nov
elites.
Military effects decorate the yacht
ing and cycling gowns this season.
The newest cape is in PePlum shape,
with four deep points at the sides, back
and frOnt.-N. Y. Sun.

THE MOCCASIN.
It Has Many Advantages Over Roots
in Hunting or War
fare.

The mOccasin is the most rational and
comfortable Of all footwear. In moe
casins the feet have full play; they can
bend and grasp; there is nothing to
chafe them or to impede circulation.
In mOccasins one can move like an aero
bat, crossing slender and slippery logs,
climbing trees or passing with ease and
security along dizzy trails on the noun
tainside, where a slip might mean sure
destruction. The feet do not stick fast
IN mud. In the north, when the mer-
curry is far below zero and no civilized
boot VIII protect the feet from freezing,
the savage suffers no Inconvenience.
His mOccasins, stuffed with dried grass,
let the blood course freely. The per
spiratiOn may freeze on the hay m a
solid lump Of ice, but the feet remain
warm and dry. The bucksllin mecca
sin, Indian-tanned with deers' brains
and wood smoke, always dries soft after
a wetting. In autumn, when all the
leaves and twigs are dry as finder,
man wearing shoes makes a noise in
the forest like a troop Of cavalry; but
in mOccasins he can move swiftly
through the woods with the stealth of
panther. The feet are not bruised, for,
after enjoying for a time the freedom
Of natural covering, these hitherto
blundering members become like hands,
and feel their way through the dark
like those Of cat, avoiding obstacles
as though gifted with a special sense.
Best Of all, the mOccasin is light. mex
Perienced sPOrtsmen and soldiers af-
feet high-tOPped laced boots with heavy
sOles and hObnails, imagining that
these are most serviceable for rough
wear But these boots weigh between
four and five pounds, while a pair Of
thick mOOse-hide mOccasins weigh only
II ounces In marching ten miles,
man wearing the clumsy boots lifts 20
tons more shoe leather than If he wore

worn for various reasons Some wOm-

able, others because they imagine their
feet look better IN low, fancy shoes,
and still others because they are con-
venient The fact Of the matter is,
slippers are not a bit more conducive
TO ease than high shoes If the latter
are selected judiciously. Indeed, they
are less comfortable in the long run,
for the woman who Is addicted to slip
pers is bound to have swollen feet a
good part Of the time, and when she
finds it necessary to wear high shoes
the inconvenience greatly exceeds the
pleasure she has previously derived
from slippers. For that reason the
beauty is purely imaginary, for there is
nothing attractive In bulging, over
grown ankles
Convenience is the only good point
that can be readily urged in favor Of
slippers. The ankles need support, and

in that case" said the clerk, the
whole foot grows and is strengthened

fasten tightly around the ankles, thus
affOrding them more support than any
other part Of the foot. I have had IN
measurable wrath called down upon
my head for preaching an icOnOclastic
doctrine that dispels the illusions Of
lifetime, but know my duty to my
customers and human kind IN general
and Persevere in the right course in
spite of all censure. Here, madam, are

that your foot viii not look so well as
