There is an enormous demand for
white shoes at present and fashionable
women wear them on nearly every oc-
casion. almost to the exclusion of black
shoes. The greatest demand IL for
white canvas pumps or slippers. They
are usually tied over the toes with
heavy white ribbon and many Of them
have brown heels. They are invariably
worn with white stockings. The pumps
are more fashionable than the half
SHOES. but there IL considerable demand
for the latter too. These shoes are cool
and comfortable and are easily cleaned
with white clay. Next in popularity
to white shoes are those of delicate
tints, usually selected to match the
color of the dress material. Shoes OF
pongee color, trimmed with white are
unusually dressy and handsome.
There are also shoes in every imagin-
able tint of brown, which are tied with
broad bows Of brown ribbon of cor
responding tint and are worn with
light brown stockings. The ordinary
russets and deeper browns are not
used SO much for dress occasions, but
merely for plain walking Shoes
Sailor hats are again coming in
style. Some Of them are nearly of the
same shape and style as those worn so
much few years ago, but these plain
fiat hats Of stin straw are now only
worn by young girls. OF the athletic
type. The fashionable sailors are very
broad brimmed. have low and broad
crown. usually Of light and rough
straw and are trimmed with banks of
foliage and flowers. They are sold in
all colors to match the belts. Most
women prefer white or cream, while
black seems to have gone entirely out
of style. On some of these hats loops
of velvet or silk ribbon are used to-
gether with leaves and flowers for
trimming. The trimming is all above
the brim.
Concerning the bandeau used on
these hats and their mission. an au-
thority of fashion matters says: Every
woman knows how ugly a hattened
pompadour il, and she has been In the
habit for two years Of catching up the
waves of her hair to her topknot when
her hair was or and to the brim of her
hat when she was going out. This trick
suggested to the milliners the scheme
Of using a soft bandeau. just the color
Of the hair. As the modern bandeau
is not the tiny. tight affair of last sea-
son. its width gives her an excellent
chance to pin her hair up on It all
around with invisible hairpins. This
keeps It from blowing and from falling
fiat over her face"
Although bathing suits can be pur-
chased nowadays cheaply and we'll
made. many women prefer TO make
their own bathing suits. A handsome
suit IL quite expensive and there IL con-
siderable economy In using up some
pieces Of material. insufficient for a
dress pattern and not easily matched.

Gowns or suits Of mohair. alpaca.
brilliantine, serge or flannel. that have
outlived their usefulness. may cheaply
and with success be worked over into
presentable bathing or beach suits.
Flannel 10 no longer used very much
for bathing suits, because 1t becomes
too heavy In the water and clings too
much to the skin. Silks. taffetas. mo-
hairs and alpaccas are undoubtedly the
best materials. although they are more
expensive than flannel. They do not
become so heavy. and are much quicker
dried than flannel. Black. flue. gray.
