with a dancing frock the foundation is
the color of the dress, with en-
broidery in contrasting tones, an ex-
ample being a blue satin slipper with
white roses and foliage outlining the
center seam.
Another Colonial effect is in heavy
satin, and instead of the ordinary Co
lonial tongue, there is perfect repro
duction of a butterfly with outstretch-
ed wings. done in the satin, the body
being represented by a rhinestone
buckle. The complete butterfly stands
erect on the instep, and the heels
which accompany this eXtravagant bit
OF decoration are two inches high.
The butterfly slipper is made in every
possible tone to match prevailing coll
ors in gowns.
Straps with buttons on satin slip
pers are much in evidence for party
wear. Two or three straps are en-
ployed, and the toes of the slippers
are heavily embroidered to match the
gown.
The epitome of summer extrava-
gance is shown, however. for the wom-
an whose foot seldom touches the
bare ground. Her house and carriage
shoes are of satin, to match each
gown, and the satin is then over
laid with lace. The high shoe on this
order does not button from the vamp
to the top of the boot, but shows a
succession of straps fastening with lace
buttons, which expose the silk stock
ing beneath. The hosiery, of course.
matches the prevailing tint in the
gown and the foundation satin in the
shoe.
Slippers are made on the same or
der, and cost from 81 up. according to
the quality of the lace employed. The
satin is of uniform quality, very rich
and pliable. High shoes of this sort
start at $12 per pair and run up in
definitely.
The woman of slender purse who
desires to wear tan shoes should
be careful not to accept a dark shade
of tan. The correct shade of tan for
this year is very pale-almost a cafe

COLORED SHOES
THE RAGE AGAIN

Black shoes are plebeian. The hum
BILE black kid and it's moce presump-
tuous companion, patent leather, have
bowed to the decree and taken 10 the
back shelves of the shoe sho Dps.
But it must not be imagined that
for so cunningly have leather manu-
facturers wrought that all the fash
ionable street tints in cloth have Leen
reproduced in leather, so that shoe
and frock may harmonic.
Naturally, for summer the self
tone oxford and stocking are the Ger
rect things for the women of quiet
taste, and for the gray or tan gown
she can secure an exact match in both
Isle stocking and suede OXfords.
The same may be said os the moi
delicate tints, such as champagne and
cate au lait. For these light street
Oxfords a medium heel IS used, the
Du Barry of last season having dis
appeared. For the smartest of sire ct
shoes, no ornamentation is permitted.
A street shoe, intended to go with
a tailor-made gown, shows the light
est of tan leather. each sc am I:rcd
with patent leather, just as the gown
is piped with a darker cord'ng. Tht
eyelitS for the laces are embroidered
or buttonhole stitched, and black laces
are used. For wear with this shoe
comes a tan stocking embroidered in
tiny fieur de lis pattern.
Fol- house wear there is absolutely
no limit to the fantasy of colors and
the riot of ornamentation. A popular
design is an Oxford with Louis
heel in two colors. The foundation
is the shade of the dress, ana over
this is laid and stitched scroll de-
sign in patent leather. This ec'npina-
ton is showed in all shades of tan,
gray. blue, green and brown. and red
is made to order. The suede Oxt'ords

ing employed A striking house shoe
shows gray suede with a heavy ro-
settle design done in cut steel beads.
A slipper which suggests Spanish
taste has a front vamp Of gold leather,
stitched with on ornament lilon of fine
black silk tape. The back of the
vamp set on high heels, is of black
patent leather.
quaint gaiter effect is obtained in
a satin slipper higher than the Colo
NAL Oxford, with a seam running
straight up the front, and cut low on
either side to the ankle, the whole
savoring of the ld-fashioned gaiter,
with elastic gussets set in the sides.
The foundation is black satin, and
on either side of the center seam
runs vine-effect in heavy, raised en-
broidery in the exact tints shown in

the case, though. The bottom of the
skirt is merely round; and when ole

wehrer's hands one sings a paean to
the gods of Fashion. Like the slaves of
ancient days. only too long have we
borne trains, and even II it was her
own train, woman is weary of the
bondage.
The short Jacket Model.
Among the many short jacket mod
els, which, when in odd shape, are
most frequently seen in silk. are some
stunning travelling coats in brillantine
and pongee. Numbers of these reach
as far as the bottom of the skirt. but
three-quarter lengths are likewise
much favored, and handsome trim
ming effects are observed.

add greatly to the furnishing of the
room.
The MORE scheme employed IN a
large bedroom with southern exposure
is beautiful. 1t shows a MORE striped
pepper in palest green, with panels in
set and edged with delicate moulding,
each representing a Marie Antoinette
pastoral scene.
For richly appointed den or IL
brary, a Bulgarian pattern with its
mystical designs, in rich blues, reds,
greens and tans, is effective. This
treatment will not do for small room
or room with simple oak furniture
IT demands quaint carved furniture.
For the simple yet dainty drawing
room or parlor. in the ordinary home
or apartment, the fabric papers in
stripes are striking1y effective. They
represent broadcloth, silk, satin or
MORE finish. These fabric papers in
pale tints, such as green, yellow or
ecru, tone admirably with white en-
ameled woodwork, and call for
straight side curtains at the windows
in delicate summer drapery fabrics.
Bedroom walls, as a rule, are divid-
ed on the two-thirds plan, with di-
viding moulding or photograph rail.
II the lower two-thirds show a plain
paper, the upper third or deep border
shows flowers in extravagant design.
With the lowered two thirds below,

 By Government in Louisiana.

Washington, July 6.-The department of agriculture has referred to the depart ment of justice the matter of the right of the government to conduct experiments In Texas with a Guatemalan ant which is said to be destructive of the cotton boil weevil, a Texas planter having filed suit to prevent the government carrying on such experiments.
