SOME DAINTY FOOTWEAR
Bronze, Colored Leather and Suede
Shoes Are Now in Great
Demand.

A late novelty in footwear is the
bronze shoe. and there is a great de-
mand for the colored leather in all
styles. The pretty evening slipper OF
bronze is cut with a beaded toe. The
smart pump for the afternoon is made
with a short vamp and low tongue.
Serviceable shoes for street wear are
finely finished with bronze buttons.
Next to the bronze, the suede is the
most popular, as ii was during the
summer Many of the suede shoes are
trimmed with braid on the toes,
matching the color of the kid. The
braid is set in rows, giving the effect
of self-stripes, and it adds. seemingly,
to the slenderness of the shoe Many
women wear shoes to match their
gowns, as the shoes can be procured
in almost any color desired this sum
mer The suede and bronzes will re-
main in style during the entire fall
and possibly into the early winter.
Gibson ties are worn with the light
weight canvas shoes for morning. The
ties are made of mercerized canvas.
The latest canvas shoes have extern
sion soles with Cuban heels, which
give ease across the toes, yet are
snug and well-fitting

1t is the modish thing at the mo-
ment to don tiny apron for any
number of occasions, and my lady of
fashion would consider her summer
wardrobe quite incomplete without at
least half dozen of these dainty and
useful accessories.
For the summer, a garden apron is
an absolute necessity. Though for
good, stout service, it should not lack
smartness, and often the trim neat
ness of these plain garments is chic
in the extreme. The model in the
sketch is of dark blue and white
striped galatea with bands of plain
blue. The big flower laden garden
hats are invariably becoming, and
lend quaint prettiness.
One of the new French flower bas-
kets, with the two side pockets for
garden scissors and ball of twine
with which to tie up little nosegays,
is a pleasing addition to the garden
outfit. They are essentially French
these baskets. useful, to be sure, yet

and dainty ribbons. A pretty model
is shown in the upper left-hand corner
OF the sketch. Fine white batiste
cores are Joined by strips of valen-
ciennes lace. The apron is edged with
lace and beading, through which pink
wash ribbon is run. The dots are done
in pink silk.
Another dainty affair is of white
null, embroidered in solid ard eye
let embroidery. with medalliohs and
edge of cluny lace and light blue rib

| bon ties. Any number of attractive
aprons may be made, using medal
lions of any kind of lace which is suit
ed to washable articles. They may be
in combination with crossbar or
dotted muslin, and dots and flowers in
colored or white embroidery. Usual
ly the embroidery is done with mer-
cerized cotton, though silk is very
attractive. Many little fancy aprons
are made of wash silk, and, though
! they are pretty, they lack the crisp
daintiness of the lingerie creations.
Handmade laces enter effectively
into the makeup of fancy aprons, and
one with princess lace is sketched
Edge and butterfly motifs form the
decoration, while openwork dots en-
hance the delicate effect.
To come to more practical aprons,
there is the busting apron of linen or
crash, or even chambray, with half
sleeves to match. five-cent print
answers admirably for this model, and
such a one is shown in the sketch-a
gray-blue with dark dots. The sleeves
are made with an elastic at the top
and button around the wrist. The
seam is stitched only two-thirds OF
the way down, so that the, cuff may be
turned back and held up by button,
should one wish to put the hands in
water.
An effective sewing apron is of very
pale green linen, hemmed with an en-
tire deuX of Irish crochet, and feath-
er-stitched in pink. The lower part
of the apron is turned up and feather
stitched down in two rows, thus form
ing three convenient pockets.

Collar Supporters.

To avoid sewing and rest wing col
lar supporters on lingerie waists, sew
piece of linen tape on each side OF
the collar from the shoulder seam up
Then cut a couple of slits in the cen
ter of tape so that the little whale
bones can be slipped into place. When
the waist is to be washed the whale
bones can be taken out and after
laundering they can be replaced with
out the necessity of stopping to sew
on each time.

New Garment for the Traveller.

There is Il new garment in the
shops this year that is most convent
ent to travellers in sleeping cars. 1t
is of black china silk. long enough to
envelope the whole figure. 1t has a
yoke, is belted down, and has little
black hood attached to it to cover the
head when going to the dressing room.
1t is so light that it can be folded into
small space and is most pretty and
generally becoming.

Orange Color in Fashion.

Everywhere one sees pale yellow in
gowns, wraps, and hats. Prophets
preach a yellow season. OF all the
shades on the shop shelves the most
fashionable Just now is orange. This
is a dye that exactly matches the
fruit. 1t is alluring in panne velvet
for the long military cape, and is
fetching used on huge white straw
hats. 1t comes in Innings to use un-
der spotted and figured net gowns.

New Motor Goats

One of the best shades that is used
in motor coats, which means all kinds
of top coats, is of stone-gray silk mo-
hair. The material is made up into
a smart-looking affair with satin collar
and cuffs and mother-of-pearl OIL
smoked pearl buttons.

Hard to Mend SILK skirts.

Mending silk skirts is almost hope
less. When favorite silk skirt is too
far gone to fuss with it is sometimes
possible to make from it a 12-inch
ruffie which may be put on a sateen
foundation or fastened to the inside
of the skirt 1t matches.

Finishing Skirt Seams

Do not finish the seams of skirt
as a French seam. Either bind. over
cast, or pink them. French seams are
more suitable for underwear or shirt
waists.
