NOVEL FANcIEs IN FOOTWEAR
Shoes, With Their Trimmings, Have
Become a Most important Part
of the Costume.

The fan-shaped plat and the rosette
are the prominent trimmings of the
house and evening shoe now, and the
place to wear them is at one side of
the shoe instead Of in the center.
There must also be handsome orna-
ment or buckle made of chased metal
with huge colored cabochon stone in
the middle.
Brocade, gold and silver tissue, and
ribbon are used for the plaits, and
furnish a change from the tulle or
velvet background employed lately for
the purpose.
The value of the buckles makes the
remark without ornaments" neces-
sary when the price of the footwear
is stated. They are copies in many
cases of old designs and some are SO
cleverly contrived that they look real
ly antique.
Furniture brocade has been found
so comfortable for house footwear that
it is in high favor and the short,
rounded toe is popular, the rosettes
and ornaments making up for the pau
city of covering on the instep.

KERCHIEFS ALL IN C0LORS
Modest White No Longer In Fashion,
Even for Wear With the After
noon Costume.

New handkerchiefs are a riot of
color White kerchiefs are certainly
not on display. The fashionable hand
kerchiefs to be worn with tailored
suits are in solid colors, or the same
thing with quarter-inch hemstitched
hem in white The colors run all the
way from dainty shell pink, palest
blue and most delicate lavenders to
navy blue, dark brown and crimson.
For afternoon wear the colors are
not quite so pronounced. There will
be the merest threads of color border
ing the white handkerchief or the ini-
tial will be worked in a color.
Again, the background of white
. embroidered letter will be of color
woven in with the white, but there is
sure to be touch of color somewhere.
While most of the handkerchiefs are
finished with a narrow hemstitched
hem, even for formal wear, there are
others showing the dainty scallop in
closing a bit of mareira embroidery,
also the initial, all carried out in
pretty color.
1t would seem the polka dot never
goes out Of fashion, for one of the new
designs shows in the center of the
handkerchief in a solid blue, while the
wide border is dotted with white.
Stripes, cubes and odd colorings may
be found by those seeking after the
freakish.
Borderings in plaids are new and
are not at all as loud as one might
think
The white centers with wide border
of the plaid finished with very mar
row hem of lawn in the predominating
color of the plaid are very smart in
deed.
Those with solid. dark color centers
are NICE too, but they suggest the
handkerchief less than do those with
the white centers.
