This IS a day and time when the little
odds and ends of a womans toilet amount
to far larger output OF money than her
frock, hat and coat. And It is these very
little things that give her the smart look
so coveted. It is the way she selects these
accessories, and, having done that the
way she wears them, that gives her the
well-dressed look.
For instance, the gloves that have been
worn all winter and are still reigning SUI
preme-long kid gloves--cost anywhere
from So up, and many a well-dressed girl
wears pretty blouse which does not cost
half that sum.
To large extent, long silken gloves will
replace the kid article for summer, but
even they ara expensive, and especially II
they are held up by the new glove garter.

need so much support as the silk variety.

buckles, but the majority are fashioned OF
white or cream lace and would seem to be

latter-and importers Of novelties from
England are showing these ties with an an

one OF the prettiest new hatpins seems to
be a rosebud tucked away in a carelessly

the outcome of the rosetted ribbon hatpin

ribbon being the most effective to CORE

Ostrich down and feather mufrs are to

One woman conceived the idea OF taking
two OF the old buttons that have lain IN
her button box since she was married-and
were then cut from old gown of her
mother's-to the jeweler and having them
made into q ring for her little finger and a
pin for her stock. The buttons match
though one Is much larger than the other
and are of black Jet in the center of which
are three tiny pearl-like settings She al
ready possessed cut Jet bracelet and chain,
and these TWO added bits made an original
set.
