POCKET TO HOLD SLIPPERS
Decorative Design Could Be Carried
Out In Any colors That Appeal
to Fancy Of Maker.

A decorative and dainty slipper
pocket is shown in the accompanying
sketch. 1t is made in pale pink art
linen and may be cut out in two
pieces, one piece forming the back,
and the other the pockets; the latter
piece of material is scanned down the
center so that it forms two separate
divisions into which the slippers may
be placed. The material is turned
over at the top and hemmed down and
either a thin piece of wood or piece
Of cane run through. This is done
in order that the pocket will retain its
shape when hanging upon the wall.
1t is edged throughout with pink
and white cord carried into loops on
either side, and again at the base,
where the ends of the cords hang
downwards and are knotted together
and frayed out into tassels.
The openings Of the pockets are
also edged with some of the same pink
and white cord which is arranged in
three little loops in the center. On
the front Of each Of these pockets a
simple floral design is embroidered
consisting Of white daisy with vel.
low center and leaves in various
shades of green. At the top loop
of cord is provided for suspending the
pocket from a nail in the wall.
Other colors in which this useful
article might be carried out are

SPRING SHOE STYLES READY
Buttons and Tendency to Low Heels
Promise to Be the Features Of
Coming Season.

Long before a woman buys her fall
shoes the makers have planned the
styles for the following spring-so far
in advance Of fashion is the wholesale
trade
Rumors are that nothing but button
shoes will be worn next spring, that
patent and kid feathers will be used
mostly and that heels have tendency
to be very low.
This does not mean that there will
be a craze for the almost heelless
shoes of the summer just gone-far
from it. The newest heel will be low
Louis instead of the Cuban we have
known. For girls the little heel will be
good always, and for outing wear, the
heelless, rubber.soled low shoe will be
as popular next summer as 1t has been.
Turned.sole shoes will be used ex-
tensively, and such tans as will be
seen will be in dark shades-light tan
only in outing styles.
Moreover, for dress wear, makers
predict vogue of fancy shoes; that is,
black or dark tan vamps, with colored
suede tops, these to match the gown
or suit, If preferred.
Speaking of rubber-soled shoes, they
were boon in that they were soft and
flexible, but they were heavy to the
foot, and some say too heating for
comfort.
There is just out on the market and
will soon be purchasable in shoe
stores, new sole leather, tanned by a
special process that makes it as fex.
ible as rubber, yet light in weight For
women with sensitive feet this will be
real boon.
In the evening slippers, beyond the
fact that black satin will be very popu-
lar and the colors will run to vivid
tones, there will be little change.
Vamps will be slightly longer and the
general use of rich, metallic brocades
on gowns will be extended to slippers
as we'll.

TWO PRETTY VEIL NOVELTIES
Butterfly" Effect One Of the Most
Charming Of Recent Seasons
"Sultana" Is Another.

Fancy a face yelled with just the
lightest Of black mesh veilings-and
against one cheek, a little butterfly
outlined in heavy black lace. Doesn't
1t sound really charming? This is the
Butterfly" veil-mesh so light it bare
ly shows, and one single butterfly done
in lace, and displayed at the cheek.
Sometimes the butterfly is replaced
by an autumn leaf-sometimes by
cluster Of chenille dots. However, the
idea Of single motif is preserved
throughout, whatever the actual de-
sign. \
This Is so much more effective than
an elaborate design-so much simpler
and prettier, that it promises to take
the place of the "all-over" pattern.
Speaking of wells, though, another
novelty Is the "Sultana." This has a
crescent shaped piece Of plain mesh,
woven into the intricate design, at Just
the place where the eyes appear.

BRIGHT C0LoRs IN GRIZZLIES
Furnish Opportunity for Gay Touches
That Add So Effectively to the
Costumes Attraction.

Very often the girdle is the only
utterance of color we find in a gown.
Through its presence we obtain the
richest contrast of tint, and the pres.
ent fashion of embellishing the ends
of the girdle furnishes us with add.
tional opportunities. A swaying tassel
OF gold or silver on a black girdle, a
bit of colored embroidery, an encrus.
tation Of rhinestones-these are some
of the ways by which we give distinc-
ton to the flowing ends of our sash.
One of the most ingenious and effec-
tive examples was noticed the other
day in a small specially shop, where
on a girdle Of dull saffron there ap-
peared lunches of grapes in which re-
atty was obtained by the use of me-
dlum-sized beads-one bunch being
worked out in pale yellow beads, the
other in rich purple.

CONWAY LUMBER PLANT BURNS
Fire Loss Estimated IT $4,000 With
S46,300 Insurance-Will Rebuild
At Once.

News and Courier.
Conway, May 24.-The Conway
Lumber company's plant in South
Conway was partially destroyed by
fire this afternoon, entailing loss Of
$4,000, with $4,000 insurance. Fire
broke cut in the fire room Of the saw
mill about 1890 p. NJ, and within a
few minutes was beyond control. The
local fire company responded to the
alarm quickly and thus saved the
planning mills and the large sock Of
lumber in the yard from destruction.
The fire engi1e was stationed on the
banks Of the WaccamaW river, near
the burning plant, and the Iaddies
worked heroically and with excellent
results for several hours. The nine
dry kiIns cf the company and the
lumber therein were destroyed, the
old saw mill, together with the new
one, which was in process of con-
s.ruction, were consumed by the con-
fagration.
Mr.. H. w. Ambrose, the manager Of
the company, when seen by your cor
respondent, stated that the mills
would be rebuilt, and that work on
them would begin shortly.
