THE FASHIONS
.CcontInued from Ninth Pagel

kind of a fan is fashionabIe, provided it be small enough. The best selling models are abotu seven inches long when closed. No accessory of dress is made more of
 lately than the belt The craze for rib-
 bons is partially responsible. but every variety of linen belt and girdle is also
 being shown. A new idea is to have a matching stock and belt in two colors i of linen. Blue and white is the pret- tiest combination, but all colors are to
 be had. A tailored white linen suit with blue and white stock and belt and blue linen spats over white canvas ties ! is costume We shall doubtless see on
 many a fashionably garbed woman this summer. It is possible to dress from
 head to foot in linen, and great i many women will elect to do so.
 l The matching fad has been extended
 to gloves. The latest glove is lined at i the top with colored kid. in all shades. This gauntlet is supposed to be turned 1 back over the wrist. I Veils match, as a matter of. course. l It takes very pretty woman to look well under mauve or a green gauge, ] but veils must match hats. A few
 white lace veils are seen, and many lace edged net and gauge veils.
 About the only part of the costume sl that does not have to match is the shoes. Colored kid is not yet fashion able, although the colored spat is an old story. The new models in shoes
 are rather odd, and women with extra
 high insteps will find some difficulty in
 being suited. The yanps of the new
 shoes sesm to be extraordinarily long. Extension soles seen on many walking
 shoes, and the swing sole, which came in a year ago, is on hand again, very much exaggerated Some of the spring shoes make one look actually pigeon { toed, Pumps in patent leather and
 Russian calf will be much worn. I The brettelle gowns and bolero suits
 which have 50 largely taken the place
 of the shirt-waist suit, were described
 last week. That the shirtwaist suit has
 not entirely disappeared was apparent during the warm days early in the
 week, when Twenty-third Street and
 Broadway were crowded with shop
 pers. It was warm enough to dispense
 with wraps, and a large number of new silk street gowns were seen. Among 4 them were many handsome shirtWaist l suits. It was remarked that the sur Iplice waist was the model used for < fully half these suits. The guinpes
 were almost invariably transparent
 white. and in many cases there were
 thin white undersleeves.
 I A chiffon taffeta in a rather bright
 blue was made with skirt plaited in
 groups of three and a surplice waist I plaited on the shoulder and in the back. <. The full sleeves were gathered in a
 gauntlet cuff at the elbow, with full . double ruffies of lawn and lace beneath.
 The guimpe and collar were of lace
 trimmed lawn.
 An extremely pretty suit of dark red checked silk had a plaited shirt, the
 bottom of which was trimmed with
 puffed bands of the silk put on in a garland pattern. The plaits were stitched flat almost to the knees, and
 there was a decided flare around the ' foot of the skirt. The blouse was cut '4l heart shaped at the neck, and had
 small lapels which were edged with the
 puffed silk bands, Four more of the bands were applied to the blouse in a
 pattern matching that of the skirt. The
 same kind of a decoration appeared on
 the sleeves, which were long. The in evitable transparent guimpe was worn A suit of tan-colored voile was espe- cially admired. It had a full skirt quite plain save for two flat tucks or simulated tucks, which appeared above the hem. The waist was a full surplice and was open about halfway to the aist over an embroidered batiste guimpe. There was a collar broad or l the shouldegs and narrowing to point
 of tiny ruifies, white German valen- # ciennes lace, and the short undersleeves were also lace-frilled. These under.
 sleeves were, in fact, merely under-cuffs | Eof the stitched gauntlet voile cuff.
