Apropos of ultra-smart tints. grey
is to lead the var for boots and shoes.
Considering that grey hats and gowns
have already proved their right to
share in every well-dressed woman's
wardrobe this season, it is in good
taste. A continuation of grey buck
skin and patent leather is one of the
most successful of the novel schemes
and there are some very dainty and
effective walking shoes in this style
with Louis quinze heels for light wear.
Buckles are used more than ever
and we are gradually beginning to
consider that nothing is too extrav-
agant a sum to pay for them.
Elaborate bending is ont of date,
even for evening slippers, and the
smartest full dress shoes are being
treated % very scant decoration. Ev-
erybody is going out for foot exercises
and in compliment to the pretty out
lines that already are ana are expect
ed to be, if constant training counts
for anything, simple footgear for even
ing that allows a view Of these curya-
lures will come il faut.
A PONCE frock that is suitable for
almost any occasion is OF silver grey
tint. Over the shoulders, both back
and front. ii is arranged in tiny tucks
straight across, about five inches deep.
From this come four deep tucks run
ming vertically round the figure. These
come to the waist line. hanging round
the figure rather loose, with an orange
| ribbon belt encircling the waist caught
in front by a fancy buckle.
The sleeves are tucked above the
! elbow. where they fall full. with three
deep tucks above the cuff at the wrist.
| A tucked collar is worn around the
neck.
The skirt is tucked and stitched to
the knees, where it branches into a
| fare which falls very full around the
feet. A very fiat grey hat trimmed
| with grey plumes and rosettes of lace
and orange-colored paume complete
| the costume.
For the benefit of the woman who is
as particular about her perfume as
about her gown it might be interest
ing to know that a new toilet water
known as sandlewood is dainty and 70
freshing. 1t is individual without be-
ing pungent and no production in re-
cent years has proved more refresh
ing and delightful.
Violet, of course. remains the favor
lite extract. and will probably never
/ lose favor. It has received the cachet
of the social world and is the personal
fragrance of many distinguished wo-
| men. Next to it come carnation, pink,
marguerite and cut roses. each OF
which is extremely delicate.

KENTUCKY NOT SMART ENOUGH
Didn't Care Under the circumstances &

Didn't Care Under the circumstances to
Send Her-VIsit To BE Made.
AS to Admiral Evans invitation it
was decided that the Kentucky, having
been in semi-tropical waters for a
long time, and having before her a
voyage of nearly $4,000 miles returning
to New York in the shortest line,
would be in no condition when she
arrived ut Gibraltar going westward
to be diverted from her straight course.
She would certainly not have been at
tractive ship TO inspect at that stage.
But the United States navy is not
to be unrepresented at Kiel, Follow
ing the usual custom. when the warm
weather begins in the Mediterranean
the European squadron will begin
slowly to work its way nOrthward, and
it is calculated that it will arrive at
Kiel in time to take its proper place
In the celebration.
This can be done and will be done
without undue interference with the
routing movements of the European
squadron, and attention is directed to
the fact that this is the same squad
ron which is under orders to be at
MarseilleS when President LOubet re-
turns from Africa.
While the navy department is de-
sirous of showing the greatest courtesy
towards President Loubet and the peo-
pie he represents. to point out that be-
ing only few hours sail distant from
Marseilles a failure on the part of the
United States squadron to greet the
returning president would have been
little less than a gross discourtesy.
