Of Interest to Won1er,

New York. April 22.-Quite the pref
test bits Of footwear for some time
are the new seamless pumps of brown
antelope skin. This spring is the first
they have been shown. The texture
of the skin is like suede, and the color
lovely soft golden brown. Toes are
rather pointed. Around the top the
pump is edged with narrow binding
of tan kid, tied in the minutest of
bows in front.
The newest pendants to be worn on
any gold chains are composed of four
or five stones set, or rather hanging
in row. One of brown tourmalines
and diamonds has tourmaline OBJ
long in shape. to which tiny chain
Is attached. Suspended from that is
diamond. then three-cornered tour
maline, then another diamond and
then an octagon-shaped tourmaline
forming the end of the pendant.
Among the little cloth and bolero
jackets that are so much the fashion
just now there is great number of
fascinating models to select from.
Since its first introduction some years
ago the bolero has undergone many
interesting changes, and, while still
keeping in the main to its original
lines. has altered materially in num-
berless minor points. but at the same
time the familiar bolero is just as
smart as many of the newer coats.
Small as they are the boleros of
this year must be trimmed on every
available inch of the material, and
what is more. must be adorned inside
as well as out. Over each seam is
laid band of lace beading with rib
bon of appropriate color running
through it; or, if not finished exactly
in this way, at any rate the simplicity
is relieved with lace, ribbon or EN-
broidery, or braiding to correspond
with the outside of the jacket. so that
where the flap falls back or the
sleeves chance to turn up there will
be nothing to offend the esthetic eye.
AS rule the bolero is of the exact
shade of the costume, but again it is
seen as tone of contrast of intro
ducing deeper tone to the robe.
With deep red or with certain
shades of green, for example. little
coat of black taffeta. with the color of
the gown sewn in the facings gives
an excellent effect, but with soft light
greens, deeper bright reds black is
often just what is needed with the
gown. The deeper tones of red are,
of course, too warm for this time of
year, but green is one of the most
prominent spring colors. Another pop
ular shade is vivid flame-softer than
other pink. yellow or orange and
sort of composite of the three. Jap
anese blue is another smart color for
the early spring, and there is the
usual number of gray and tan dresses.
Every color of the rainbow will be
carried by fashionable bellies this sum-
mer to shade their faces from the
blazing rays of Old Sol. A charming
lingerie parasol. to be worn with duck
or organiy gowns. is Of white linen.
A hemstitched flounce. full and fluffy.
softens the edge. while over it de-
ponds medallions of embroidery.
Above these is an inch width of in
sertion OF princess lace. The whole
makes simple sunshade. but an ex-
pensive one. a
Dame fashion is on the fence re-
garding the fashionable dress skirt
She has openly declared in favor of
the train as being more dressy than
the short skirt, and she has gone so
far as to state that the woman who
