Dainty Footgear.

That there is a strong revival In favor
OF the Louis XIV heel is a fact made APP
parent enough by its temperance, and
1t is said that the leading shops are re-
ceivtng three times as many orders. as was
the case six months ago. An exhibition of
footgear held not every long ago disclosed
the undoubted fact that the average size
or the feminine foot has increased to No.
D. 1t Is to be remarked that women who
compress their feet into shoe that is "a
size too small for them in the minority.
ana without doubt the cut of a shoe is its
desirable feature rather than its measure
ment. The white kid slippers for evening
wear, with their garnfshments of silver
thread and cleaning paillettes in lattice
work design, are fit for fairy princess.
SO are the soft tinted ball slippers in palest
blue. green, mauve and pink kid. all
adorned with gold or jeweled in a way de-
lightful to behold. There are black kid
and satin shoes galore carried out with the
finest cut jet characterization and motor
boots In black or brown, cozily lined and in
some cases edged with fur, but so cum
n1ngly designed to do away with the
least suggestion of clumsiness.

HOUSE PARTY RAIMENT
LIGHT CoLoRED GOWNS STILL IN
VOGUE FOR INDOOR WEAR.
Shimmering Silky Effects-Pink is the
Trying but Fashionable Color
for Spring.

Written for The Evening Star by Katherine An
derson.
AS the Lenten house party gains in pop
ularity. does the dress problem increase
in perplexity. The modiste who can build
a gown like a composite picture and call
1T house-party creation has her fortune
made; but in it she must include morn
ing frock, an afternoon toilette, a dinner
gown and an evening dress of less formal
cut, all of which, even in this day Of mar
velous invention, seems quite outside the
range Of possibilities. 1t is bad form to go
to house party loaded down with trunks
and yet the gowns of today demand space
for their stiffened, fiounced and rufflei
parts.
1t is indoor toilettes which are of most
importance at a house party at this season
of the year, when all merrymaking Is kept
discreetly within four walls of the country
nome. Aside from one tailored gown, moth
ing in the way of out-of-door raiment IS
necessary. And the power who rules the
fashionable world prophesies another sea-
son of gay coiorings, with numberless odd
shades of pastel blue and tender green.
The somber tones are to be left quite in
the background for another year. at least.
unless an occasional mahogany or straw
berry-colored broadeloth may be classed in
that category.
An effective costume for afternoon wear
is an adaptation from the directoire period,
fashioned of old ivory chiffon broadcloth.
The jacket corsage is fitted closely and
trimmed with borderie Anglaise done In
heavy white twist on the broadcloth itself
The necessary. touch of color is supplied in
the crenellated landings tof bronze green
velvet embroidered in pastel tints. The
skirt suggests nothing much as an in
fants embroidered shawl around the bot
tom, where broderie Angiaise is effectively
applied in place of a fiounce or a hem of
any sort. The upper portion Of the skirt
IS made in stitched pleats. into which the
corsage fits like old-fashioned basque.
a jabot of white lace eccentuates the d-
rectoire touch as does a large white hat
topped with an ostrich feather
Nearly all of the new spring models have
an underdress interlined with haircloth.
especially about the bottom of the skirt.
to keep the draped lines from falling in
about the feet.
For Dinner and Dance
A pretty little frock which could be wor1
either dinner gown or for the all
popular dinner dance, is of white net, trim
med in quantities of fringe made from loops
of narrow white Liberty satin ribbon and
ruchings of narrow lace. The gown IS
cut, in spite of the tireless efforts of some
