The Passing of the Feminine Tan
shoe

The popularity of the tan shoe for
women's wear is n thing of the past.
according to the statements of Lynn
manufacturers who have made spe-
cialty of their production in late years.
Without exception the makers report n
marked falling off in the demand for
them, and some concerns have not sent
out any samples of them for this sea
son. Tan shoes for women were al
ways regarded by shrewd men in the
shoe business as more or less of a fad
and were not expected to become an
established feature of the business.
One of the chief causes for the loss in
popularity which the tan shoe has sus-
tanned is the fact that tan shoe, size
for size. looks larger than the blsck
shoe. This alone was enough to bring
it into diSfavor. and when in addition
1t is considered that the tan shoe. no
matter how tastefully made. could new
er compare with the black shoes of
standard makes in style or neatness of
appearance lis speedy decline in public
favor as soon as the novelty of the in
novation had worn off followed as a
matter of course.-Boston Transcript.

AN INDIAN GIRL AGITATOR.
She Has Induced 10000 People to
Pull Up Stakes and Move.

Ten thousand full blooded Indians
Delawares, Chickasaws, Cherokees and
Creeks-are folding their tents and
stealing away from the southwest ter
ritory to Mexico, where they can set up
a government of their own, with no
Indian agent to bother them. They
have secured 100000 acres of land in
the state of Chihuahua. They are 60

boards and buggies, to the promised

This gigantic exodus was conceived
and will be carried out by the most re-
markable Indian woman perhaps of the
latter days. Mollie Big Buffalo, a full

American Fashions.

manufacturer of wOmen's cloaks
returned from the Paris exposition is
quoted as saying that he received no
hints whatever of value from the CLOTH
ing exhibited there. The gowns were
for the most part designs entirely too
eXtravagant for the use of the average
woman. and these average women are
the most profitable customers of those
who make women's dresses. Accord
ing to him. the costly clothing made by
the famous dresSmakcrS of Paris is no
longer the models of feminine styles
1t is impossible for it to be initiated
cheaply unless in tawdry stuff that
will not wear well and that is too OBJ
viously an imitation. 1t is this that is
responsible for the gradual breaking
away of American women from the
Paris styles. These latter are modified
so much by the American dreSsmakers
that they are practically American,
with but few traces of their foreign
| origin. This is noticed by every wo-
man who has been abroad recently.
! The American styles are different in
many essential details, and chiefly in
respects that commend themselves as
common sense. While in elaborate
ball or dinner costumes some women
may cling to Partisan ideals, in walk
ing or street dresses the notions of the
majority of American women are fol-
| lowed. In fact there is a tendency to-
ward simplicity in walking costumes
| due to the desire to avoid attracting at
| tention that makes the average woman
| In Il measure set the style for her more
| fashionable sisters. The tendency is
one to be commended, and it may be
that the time will come when Ameri-
I can styles will be followed abroad 1t
sounds no more unreasonable that Eu-
rope should get fashions from America
than it once did that the new world
should furnish capital for investments
in the old.-Chicago Tribune.
