KITA'S NEW YORK FASHIONS
Styles for My Lady's Twinkling Feet Great Year For Fancy Hosiery
 A Geranium Season.

don't remember sany season when foot coverings-bOth stockings and shoes-played such a prominent part in my lady's fashionable ensemble. The actual rage for low shoes natur- ally brings about a strong demaid for fancy hosiery.
 Once on a time. the owner of silk stockings felt that she possessed some thing 30 rich and unusual that they were held as heirlooms. They were like real lace and old silver. In fact very few women possessed a pair of real silk stockings except as part of the bridal outfit.
 Today, even the stenographer at S1O week has silk stockings. They match each gown. This isn't sheer extravaganza, either. For you can buy them now as cheaply as you pur- some years ago.
 The great trouble used to be in the running thread" caused by the garter grip. This has been obviated by hav- ing strong lisle uppers, so that there is no strain on the silk.
 At fifty cents you will find a very good stocking. If you are willing to go as high as eighty-five cents, you can get a really fire quality.
 The "clocking' that used to be the symbol of richness and elegance, is no longer seen. Dainty little patterns
  showing small flowers in heavy sub stantial embroidery. are the embellish- nent on the smartest hosiery.
 This is essentially a "Geranium' spring. It naturally follows that even stockings are shown in his hue. A fetching combination of shoes and stockings is a geranium suede pump with patent leather and a jet buckle. The stocking that Is to accompany this is black, with cerise embroidery up as high as the calf. From there the stocking is cerise with black em ibroidery. It sounds as I describe it somewhat suggestive of the leader of the Amazon march in a burlesque show Bat in reality it is very smart and not bit vulgar.
 The 'Nubuck" ties, which are neith- CT canvas nor kid, but pleasing com bination of both. call for white silk stockings. No matter what you say, the all white silk suggests either a wedding or a funeral Therefore the manufacturer of hosiery who is artis- tic as we'll as mercantile, has made a combination of white and tan. To my mind 1t is the smartest thing in stockings I have ever seen, equally harmonious with tan or white shoes.
 Even the high top shoes or boots as our English cousins call them, show fanciful effects. A bride whose out it included seventy-five pairs of shoes, slippers, pumps, etc, wore away a smart pair in grey cloth with patent leather vamps and glass buttons.
