seashore and mountains.
Colored Buttons for Shoes.
Women do not seem to be content with
shoes of every hue and color. shape and
style that are now so popular in foot
wear. but they are going in tor unique
buttons
Our grandmothers and mothers never
thought of anything in the shoe-button
line but the black, white and also brown
buttons, which clasped the evening slip

For the last couple of years the pearl
shoe button has come into prominence,
and one must admit that it Is quite at
tractive on dainty shoe.
1t is even limited that this will not be
the limit; we may go in for fancy stones
to match the leather or the fancy buttons
on our coats to carry out color scheme.

or age-tinted lace is used in preference
to dead white. Irish crochet is not espe-
cially cared for, but filet in any form is
correct. To be in style this guimpe must
be trimmed with soutache. Wheel after
wheel is laid over the lace, either in open
design or in closely built circles.
The Newest Tie.
One of the newest toilet trif1es is the
new tie, which threatens to outrival the
popular tube of padded velvet hung with
ball tassels. This is made of several
strands of thick silk floss in two or three
shades, which are plated tightly togeth-
err and tied an inch and half from the
end. SO as to suggest a little silk fringe.
This tie encircles the throat just below
the high collar band, is fastened In a
loose knot and falls half way down the
front of the corsage. The colors chosen
are harmonious contrast to ones frock.
Initials for Underwear.
The shops have offered many things to
keep women from embroidering and yet
have their clothes look as though they
were embroidered.
The very finest of letters are made and
sold to be placed on underwear, on hand
kerchiefs, on blouses and even in the
crowns of hats.
But women have found out to their
sorrow that the placing of their initials

to pin at the back of the neck with
low couture for evening. Other compart-
ments are for puffs and braids. OF course
the chests, like this seasons hat boxes,
are perfumed to suit the taste of the
owner. The outsides are covered with
silk to match the colors of dressing
rooms.
The Baby Waist.
1t is exceedingly simple and usually
becoming. Its difference between now
and then is its short-waistedness. 1t is
confined just below the bust with folded
girdle of some soft material. When the
skirt is not high-waisted then the girdle
reaches to the waist proper. but is cut
OFF quite round and not pointed.
The space between the girdle and the
guimpe is not always of the skirt fab

The Craze for Blue.
This craze for blue of all shades is
truly remarkable The favorite shade
seems to be a curious sort Of greeny
blue which made it's appearance last
season and is still immensely popular.
These green blues in crepe de chine
trimmed with curious embroideries to
match and often relieved with black
are a happier choice for women in gen.
eraI than the paler notes of blue. which,

rather exaggerated as to size, they blend
shades and textures with a marvellous
nicely. Hats wingy rather than fiowery
are plentiful at the milliners' just now.
With a tailored shantung of the severe
order there is nothing to be preferred to
studied simplicity in headgear. 1t is
this artistic simplicity that tells. 1 was

elegant woman, at whom everybody was

PROL ONG USEFULNESS
OF ALL LINEN FABRICS

Few houSekeepers realize that all linen
in constant use will keep longer If it Is
allowed to rest at times. This same
principle holds good with garments and
various toilet articles. Take, for example,
the plan followed by a woman whose house
linen is limited and who likes to make it
last She has family of three and keeps
out eight sheets each week. AS sOiled
ones come in fresh from the laundry she
places them always at the bottom of the
pile, so in this way the same sheet is not
used two weeks in succession, but is sure
of fortnight's. if not three weeks. rest
In store closet she keeps two other piles
of eight, and every two months the sets
of sheets that have been in use are put
into the store place. another set being put
into the cupboard for weekly use. The ar
rangement takes very little time. and 1t Is
more than worth while in the saving to
linen. Pillowcases and towels she man
ages in the same way, only the quantity
OF the latter is greater.
Her table linen is used for six months
and then put away for a year.
Luxurious as It may sound to have such
a quantity of linen. the gathering OF 1t Is
inexpensive. for the woman buys sheet
or table cover occasionally and puts 1t
away. thus keeping her store In condltlon
At the same time pieces wear out so
made good at one time. and the pocket
book is saved accordingly.
To Repair Sheets.
Linen sheets, like others, wear first in
the center. and it repays TO slit them
down the middle to get the edges in the
place. This is done by tearing them In
two lengthwise. The selvages are then
overhanded together with very fine cot
ton, that a big seam shall not be made.
and then the raw edges are hemmed. The
life of a sheet is greatly prolonged if this
is done In time.
Tooth and nail brushes should always
be had in sets of twos If not threes. for
bristles fall usually because of having
become soft from constant wetting.
Therefore If they are thoroughly dried
fairly often their usefulness is prolonged
For example. woman who keeps two
tooth brushes In at the same time
using one every other day, will find that
the two will last longer than two others
would If one were worn out before be-
ginning on the second All tooth brushes
should hang when not in use to allow
the moisture to run off.

the pear earring is not out of place, and
with a diamond necklace diamond ear
rings should be worn. 1t is also correct
to wear earrings of pink coral with a
pink frock of the same shade and ear
rings of amethysts with purple gown.
Recently a picturesque effect was pro-
duced by wearing a pair Of Alsatian ear
rings of very delicate goldwork and tur-
quoises and tiny pearls with a frock Of
gauzy white liberty with blue and gold
stripes.
am not especially taken with the Gin
namon brown standings " hich are hav-
ing such immense popularity. I prefer a
shantung of the natural tone striped or
checked with the brown. 1t is not easy
to find more effective combination than
is afforded by the natural shantung with
white and black. Recently 1 saw one
trimmed with black satin and white
braid This was worn with a hat of fine
black straw trimmed with quite vide

are in pale gray and mole. trimmed with
soutache in the same shade Many cut
away coats In these delicate shades are
worn over white skirts and Louis waist
coats. Even over crepe de chine frocks
we see these Louis coats of very finest
cloth. The long princess effects in fou-
lard with coarse lace coats are quite
chic. but the snakelike skirts of the sea-
son are best carried out in satin char
meuse, crepe de. chine and similar fab
RIGS that lend themselves to drapery. A
dress of this kind will in most cases be
accompanied by a coat long or short, as
best suits the " carer. and this will be OF
peau de sole, taffeta, fine cloth or tussore.
Most fascinating are the new neck ruff
files and real lace jabots. The tulle and
satin ribbon ruff1es are rather warm for
this weather. but even feather boas are
seen frequently. comfort being sacrificed
to fashion The most dainty neckwear for
hot day is jabot of ethereal tulle or
very fine lace. CATHERINE TALBOT.

to dark haired persons It seems to be a
fixed public impression that blue is the
one color which may be worn successful

navy blue suit is tolerable any man

equally safe make a serious mistake.

on the way the color is used. Colors

The Popularity of Jade.
The jade. that valuable japanese stone.
is enormously fashionable this summer
whenever il can be employed, and II Is
to be seen for parasols treated in many
different ways. One design is simply a
long, graceful. pear-shaped knob. its
beauty due solely to the shading ard
translucency of the stone and the grace
of form.
Copper. beaten and worked in most
artistic forms, Is another novelty OF the
season. The metal treated with acids
becomes a mass of dull yet gorgeous
greens and blues. and sc-caled peacock
eyes are sunk in for additional orna-
ments. One handle shows this gorgeous
bird. the lines. for convene nee sake. be-
ing made longer and more slender. The
tail is enameled in dull shades. and the
bird is mounted on an unpublished stick
of oiled cedar. In other handles the cop
per is merely twisted. bent chased. but
the dull shading always obtains. The de-
signs are not heavy in the hands, as the
forms are followed.
Bells Not on Her Toes.
With the recall of foolish fashions that
were natural enough as a reaction from
the republican simplicity Of the French
revolution. but which seem sadly out OF
place today, 1t is possible the belled gar
ter will have another vogue. There Is
nothing wonderful about 1t. 1t is simply

The Home Milliner.
The nome millner is apt to be puzzled
In determining how much straw braid is
needed to cover a wire frame and how
many yards of ribbon will be required fer
a bow.
In the first place, it is well to remem-
Der that 1t is much more economical to
ouy the straw by the piece than by the
yard. piece contains from ten to twelve
yards. The average medium-size frame
requires one piece IL the braid IS from
one-half to two inches in width If the
narrower braid. from three-eishths to an
inch wide, is used. one and one-half to
two pieces of straw will be required.
If the frame is to be covered with
dotted Brussels net. a yard will be need
ed, provided it be put on plain.
AS to bows. silk or satin ribbon should
be from four to eight inches in width
and velvet ribbon one to two and a half
inches The scant bow takes up three and
a half yards of material. From five to
ten yards may easily be put into the full.
dressy bow. The size and style OF hat
must be the determining factors in sug-
costing the appropriate bow for trimming.
