Buttons are much used for trimming
purposes, in spite of various predictions
that they would not be so popular as they
have been for several years. The cape,
which is gaining every day in popularity,
forms a new subject for button trimming.
Some of the capes which are really mod
eled on military capes have the military
idea further accentuated by a trimming
arrangement on the shoulders like epau-
lettes. Sometimes the high. rundown
collars are also trimmed with buttons.
In spite of the fact that there Is a
marked absence of revers on most OF the
new suit coats, the cape idea is so marked
that it has reached coats and has pro-
duced a sort of rever as a result. Some
OF the short jackets have two or three
short capes falling just below the shoul-
ders in the back and in the front sort
of rever as a necessary complement of
the capes. These jackets are very good
looking; especially when they are devel-
oped in bright blue serge or gabardine.
perhaps with red buttons and a white col
lar, they have a quite military look.

Gently, but in the short time since her
advent had become an object of intense
interest to the small community. A small
community, but live; eager to- acquire
new interests, but inclined to be con-
servative in the case of people like the
Maynards. Millville was active, but II
was not smart, and Mrs. Maynard was
smart. More than that she had real
distinction, and was very democratic. A
merely smart upstart could have been
snubbed; but there was something COM
pelling about Mrs. Maynard that would
have made itself felt in the community,
even without her gowns.
The gown that she wore to the Turner
wedding was the most wonderful crea-
tion ever worn in Millvflle. Even the
wrap that covered it, a marvellous rose
mirror velvet trimmed with fur. was so
fine that it seemed to certain Millville
old ladies almost immoral. And she
wore it so carelessly! Although the
night was misty and threatened rain
she had not hesitated to put on her best
clothes, while all the rest of feminine

safety pins and hid them under rain

her through the crowd.
Your coat gomez? she said with
friendly solicitude. "And you with that
thin gown. My dear. take mine" And
she held out the wonderful rose-colored
wrip.
Mrs Hawkins shrank. Not only did
she feel that she could not accept a favor
at the other woman's hands. but she In
stinctively knew that she. with her plain
little afternoon dress and her hair pulled
straight back from her face. would look
absurd In that fairy garment The other
women were struck breathless by the
offer.
But you can have II just as well a.
mott! insisted the other woman, holding
out the wrap. Mr.. Maynard wore q
heavy fur coat. and I'll wear that. We
haven't far to 60. Please take it,"
She was entirely unconscious that the
other had been avoiding her. Meeting 80
many new faces that evening, she sup
posed she had met all. Mrs. Hawkins
realized this and was grateful for II.
The situation. however. had become suf-
ficiently embarrassing. when II was
saved by the appearance OF the gray
coat In the hands of q maid. who had
found it on the back porch. Mrs. May
nard laughed and nodded, and put on

But the incident had wrought a mar
vel. The woman buttoning herself into
the plain gray coat was looking across
the room with eyes in which jealous
spite had given place to a kind of ador-
ltion-the alteration that a plain woman
sometimes feels for pretty one whom
she loves for other qualities than her
beauty. Mrs. Tom Hawkins realized
that she had been fighting
against that alteration all evening. And
when Maynard appeared at the door to
zee IL his wife was ready, and took the |
lowers, wrist bag. and fan that she |
handed him to carry, with the air of 3 |

THE SLIPPER BUCKLE,

There are various ways in which the
White linen slipper can be enhanced. but
none prettier than that of putting upon
1t an embroidered buckle. 1t is of-ths
colonial slipper we speak, Of course.
The buckle form is cut from some very
stin buckram. of which several thick
nesses are used. and is covered ssvith a
thin white linen. Before the buckram
Is covered with the linen the shape Of the
buckle is drawn lightly on the linen the
flowers or design stamped within this
shape and the whole embroidered either
in white or colors. The shape of the
buckle is then cut from the linen and is
fitted upon the buckram shape. and the
whole ID basted to the slipper.
One cannot, OF course. whiten the
buckles with shoe Whitening, but II is a
simple matter to remove and wash them.
