decidedly the vogue. Some brilliant col

fchu in "A vivid color viii relieve tie
costume of neutral tone.
A new belt pin is shown in an Ameri-
can eagle made of dull gold and rhine
stones, to be worn with taffeta belt.
Another attractive pin is The gull, which
is worn only with stiff betting
A serpentine comb of rhinestones IS
very attractive for evening wear with
bigh-necked gowns. For afternoon wear
plain she'll combs or those with but lit
tie ornament are in far better taste.
The open meshed veil with inconspicu-
Gus dots of chenille or velvet or bordered
IN the latest fashion with tiny fur tails,
hardly an inch in length These take
the place of the fringed silk borders
The vivid emerald green is much used
also green and black is a popular com
bination. Red, in the various shad IS of
fruit, are favorite colors. The Copen-
hagen blue is the shade that is undoubt-
eddy the most pleasing.
Belts should always blend or match
the costume or possibly the trimming on
an entirely different color spoils the good
lines of the costume; it should not break
the harmony in the blouse and skirt.
Some of the smartest gowns show
touches of gray or toupe velvet and this
is especially effective with the new GER

spangles in opalescent colors mingled
with bugle beads.
Oriental embroidery is an accessory
which is in great favor. Bands of Chi
nese, Persian and Russian needlework
are used in many ways. Some Of the
large paSSamenterie tassels and orna-
ments are made in these mixed oriental
colorings and can be used effectively on
almost any material.
Gloves in all colors are being shown in
the French glove houses, and can be
found to match all the new broadcloths

returned into favor, and for evening
wear they come in the most delicate pas
tel shades of pale blue, and green, laven-
der, pink and all the shades of yellow.
Tan shoes or slippers are only appro-
pirate for morning wear with the tail
ored suit. Soft black calfskin or patent
leather are correct for afternoon street
wear. All evening slippers are of patent
leather or French kid. beaded and the
more elaborate ones are of silk or satin
having the French heels set with rhine
stones.

ed corners and is embroidered in floral
design and the one for evening is very
small, made of sheer linon batiste with a
scalloped or hemstitched border and fin
