on much the same lines and made OF
the anne materials. For semi-dress
and for dancing shoes they insure
clever effects. The style of the tie
indicates small rhinestone ornaments
and buckles, and these one finds upon
them. The tango tie, with ribbon lace,
shown In the picture, is a conception
in ties that could hardly be excelled
for beauty.
In many of the pumps and ties the
buckles or ornaments are placed at
the sides. The effect is elegant. A
simpler tie is shown in the third fig
ure. very quiet in design and graceful
in shape. 1t Is furnished with patent
colt vamp and black brocaded quar-.
tiers. It has a lightweight sole, easy
for dancing and a new Spanish heel
flattering to the foot.

THE shoes of today distinguish their
. American makers, for they are
brilliant achievements In the realm
Of footwear. When considers that
the fashionable shoe Is wide of the
mark in shape when 1t comes to fol-
lowing the natural lines of the foot,
and yet Is comfortable, it is possible
to realize something of the ingenuity
which Is demonstrated in its making.
The most popular shoe for ordinary
wear, the neatest and most shapely,
is the Colonial Pump, like that shown
In the picture. 1t is developed in
many different styles and combina-
lions Of feathers or of leather and
fabrics. These embody the patent
leather vamp and the quarter of 9TH
or leather or of plain or hrocaded fab
rios. Contrasting color is used In the
quarters sometimes; light gray or
white, and light tan are among the
more pleasing effects.
The pumps are fastened apparent
iy) under buckles of cut steel or sill
ver fligree or enamel. Pumps for
evening wear are often made with
vamp of satin and quarter Of patent
calfsktn. with finish of rhinestone
buckles or ornaments. The pump
shown here is ideal in style and may
be considered a criterion by which to
measure others.
There is almost as great a variety
In ties "a in pumps. They are shaped

HF you are fretting your mind In try
I ing to make a decision as to what
sort Of hat you will have for midsum-
mer, let 1t rest upon one similar in
general style to the two pictured here.
Have the prettiest, most becoming
and most fascinatingly feminine of all
millinery, with laces and flowers and
ribbons making up a CONNECTION to be
worn upon the head. For the mid
summer hat will sit at the top notch OF
style when 1t is a means of wearing
q good-sized bouquet fastened to a
fair head at some slightly dashing
angle.
Roses and small flowers in the nat
ural sizes, the lilac and the violet,
forget-me-not, heliotrope, and heather,
and small daisies betoken the love
for garden flowers which lies in the
mind of many wearers of flower hats.
But the flower hat bedecks itself with
flowers common and uncommon. From
the yellow field daisy to the most In
usual orchid, like and unlike their
prototypes, everything in flowers is
fashionable.
One of the hats shown here Is a
round crown covered with maline, In
brown, of the shade of its wearer's
hair. Over the crown a brim is slipped,
covered in the same way as the crown.
It is narrow at the right side, widens
and flares up at the left. A fine ma
chine-made lace is laid smoothly over

With the first hint Of dawn he was up

d~tction, the unexpected happened. In

Of q telegram which Jean summoned

first hat is trimmed with velvet rib
bon in brown and a shaded fancy os-
trich feather is in the same coloring,
shading off to a very light tint. Deep
e roses, with pink hearts. and
natural colored silk wheat, are placed
in groups about the brim, with one
cluster at the base of the plume on
the bandeau.
The second hat is trimmed with
silk roses in yellowish pink. They are
marvels of delicate coloring, with the
shadings and even the veins of the
natural petals simulated in the half
opened buds. The foliage also In
dark, glossy green Is made with low
ing fidelity to nature.

these hats may be regarded as cri-
terions. They are not merely modish,
but the mode.
