A NEAT SHOE CASE
FOR THE BEDROOM.

The best way to preserve the shape
of boots and shoes is Enthusiastically
to put them on to boot trees when not
in use. The majority of women, how
ever, overlook this little wrinkle, and
the consequence is that boots and shoes
lose their shape long before they are
worn out. The cost of pair of trees
is so slight that it is really surprising
their Importance is not more generally
appreciated by women.
Dust is great enemy to leather, and
boots and shoes when not in use ought
to be kept under cover and should new
er be left in dusty places.
A convenient case for shoes that
takes up no room space, since it can
hang against the wall or cupboard
door, is easily made from piece of Gre
tonne about two and one-llalf feet long
(the length will eventually be the
height) and two feet broad, strapped
across breadthways from side to side
with three eight inch bands of cretonne,
each band being divided by stitchings
into four little pockets for shoes. There
is an interval Of about an inch between
each strap.
These straps of cretonne should be
sewed to the foundation along the low
Ter edge Of each strap, the top edges be-
ing left free, save where they are
caught down by the stitchings that d.

SWEET OLD FASHIONED WAYS,

The authoritative tone that the ma
jority of young women take with their
mothers nowadays is not precisely an
indication of good breeding; but then
good breeding seems to be rapidly go
ing out of fashion, complains a woman
of the world. A few relics of it are still
left, just enough to show how delightful
thing it was. "A really courteous man
is now described as being "of the old

Nobody would like to see children go
back to the stilted stiffness of the days
when they called their parents sir"
and madam" but their present de-
meanor Is the reverse of polite or gem

them up. The mothers seem to get ac-

vUNE roses are not more beautiful to
\ look upon than is our summer girl
of 1900. The roses queen" it over
the world of flowers, and the latter
reigns supreme in the rosebud garden
of girls. This years summer girl is by
all odds the most attractive specimen
that has ever graced the dancing floor
or coquetted with gay cavaliers. She
Is picturesque medley of flowers and
floral brocades fashioned into a stately
simplicity that is most adorable. She
has affected a flower campaign in dress,
so to speak. The morning linen frock
is sprigged, budded or leafed; the dim
fly for afternoon displays the hallmark
Of her choice, and the evening gown

breadth.
Certainly so fair an apostle of the
flower fad as Is the summer girl of 1900
will put to rout all liking for plain ma
terials. The entree of the summer girl
is yearly anticipated with pleasure and
keen interest. She is not only a type IF
good gowning, but invariably introduces
the latest fashions. This year she is
even more-the pioneer of the symbol
ical toilet.
It Is quite possible that we are on the
eve Of a veritable revolution in fash
ions. The French fashions of tomor-
row, like the French literature of to-
day, are to be symbolical. Even at
present a really well dressed woman
is never the absolute slave of the pre-
vaillng fashion. She uses her own
judgment to a certain extent in choos-
ing what she wears. She adapts her
clothes to her complexion, to her height,
to her age, to her style generally. The
symbolistic fashions Of the near future
will go further than this. To talk as
the philosophers talk, they will be 1.-The
