More daring in color scheme, and. perhape
hss generally practical, but suggesting
dsBebtful costume effects for all that. was
q psnsol In linen Of the natural hue, per-
fsctly plain save for a huge bunch Of natural
looking cherries embroidered In high relief
upon one Of the divisions Of the cover. The
stick was one Of the cherry wood sticks
With O bunch OF cherries on the handle,
which have been familiar for many seasons.
The linen bag 10 practically new this
summer, though a few models were sold last
year, and the makers are turning out some
exceedingly pretty things OF this sort for
use With costumes of linen. OF course such
O bag has not the wearing qualities Of good
leather and Is easily soiled; but 1t is readily
cleaned and it answers the purpose for
which II is designed. not being intended for
general use.
Here again embroidery is the essential
feature Of the design. and upon some Of
bags very beautiful hand work Is lavished.
There may b q single bold design en-
broidered upon the side Of the bag or little
sprays or garlands may wander all over the
linen surface.
The latter idea 10 the moro popular OF the
two and open work eyelets are frequently
scattered through the design. Many OF the
shapes liked in leather are reproduced In
linen, and the setting Of the bag may be as
elaborate as one pleases, although q plain
setting Of silver gilt is the usual thing and
livery pretentious frame seems out Of Keep
ing with the linen material.
The envelope bags and purses, introduced
last season in leather, and still modish are
now made in embroidered linen, and q para
col, bag and card case or purse en- suite
matching a frook Of linen constitutes the last
word Of modishness.
The shoes too, may match the linen frock
though many women even when they can
afford 10 indulge In whims, prefer an all
white shoe Of canvas or kid to any other
for wear with the tub frock. Colored
footwear has, however, obtained more
favor this season than ever before, and not
only are low shoes, slippers and pumps
shown In leather Of all the popular oolors,
but linen and canvac and duck In tbs modish
o~olorings are aleo pressed into service by
the shoemakers.
Sometimes the material Is combined with
lid or with patent leather, but, moro often
II 10 used alone. It may be plainly finished
with the conventional stitching. heels Of
leather or Of leather covered with linen,
syelsts Of white and lacings Of white or
Of the color Of the shoe. Or, perhaps the
model Ia embroidered daintily by hand on
the toe and possibly along the top Of the
ahoe or the top Of the vamp.
shoemakers are making these shoes 10
order 10 match costumes, but there are
models In many OF the fashionable oolorings
shown tn the shops. Another idea which
has been launched by the shoemakers. but
can not be commended as heartily as the idea
Of the one tone shoe In linen or duck is the
shoe Of striped duck or canvas, the ground
Of the material being Of white or some tint,
WHO tne btrlp9 IS Oh pm &Ho Oh COior upon
the white ground or Of white upon the
tinted ground.
The stitching and the laces are in the color
OF the stripe and the result is really rather
fetching, but the shoe is moi 50 becoming
TO the foot as a one color model.
Concerning linen belts. little remains to
be said, though they are more popular than
ever before, and new models are constantly
appearing. One may buy an embroidered
belt at any price from twenty-five cents to
ten dollars, but 1t is needless to say that
the cheap embroidered belt is a coarse,
machine made affair and is by no means
% desirable az q plain stitched belt Of finer
linen.
IT is, however, difficult to find these plain
tailored belts Of good liner, save at the shops
Of the haberdashers who cater for women
and there high prices are asked for them;
60 the practical woman will buy one Of them
and copy it at home, using the same buckle
iol all the belts. OF course she oannot have
the metal eyelets. but a carefully button
hoied eyelet answers every purpose, and one
can in this way get a number Of belts in
