trifle more substantial; but in nearly
every instance footwear matches per-
fectly the tone OF the frock or its ac-
cessories. Low shoes are worn as long
as weather permits and from one ex-
treme to the other the high boot takes
its place. Suede boots having fifteen
buttons are one OF the sensational in
novations for fall. and Judging from
the displays in custom shoemakers'
windows the extremely high shoe Will
be the fancied style during the winter
season.
Hat Talk.
That perennial favorite. the dashing
Gainsborough. to which the fashion
able world gives its tickle allegiance.
has again made its appearance. This
/ time the velvet covered picture hat is
chosen for a large number of the
/ handsomest trimmed feather models.
and rather from long association, or in
accordance with the lines of the ORR
ginal chapeau so beautifully pictured
/ by the great Gainsborough. the style
seems to be particularly adapted for
its graceful feather adornment. Lit
tie or effort is being made to match
the hat to the gown this season. So
| long as it's trimmings match the ac-
! cessories of the costume, such as tho
waistcoat, girdle, gloves and ruff there
is nothing more required. Defying all
rules and regulations concerning the
I eternal fitness of things, many smartly
dressed women are wearing the much
feathered picture hat with plain frocks.
Feather trimmings of all kinds, from
the beautiful wings with tinted tops
to the superb ostrich plumes, are the
conspicuous features of fall millinery.
Jaunty little knockabout hats in gun
metal felt are slightly rolled in front
with dropping brim at the back. These
shapes are effectively trimmed with
gray and white notified cog feathers
or with clusters of natural turkey
plumage running back on either side.
