 The farsighted girl, who is already planning her Christmas work, will find her time well spent in making some of these pretty handkerchiefs this fall. If you want to be up to the minute make some of them of fine voile.
 One style of handkerchief is of solid gale pink voi1e and is bound with a marrow white hem. Blue lavender and green voiles are used in the same way. 4 number of the handkerc1liefs have a very wide border of white around a so1id portion of color.

 The making of these very attractive little accessories might very well prove a hobby in itself, as they offer such possibilities for most original gifts and favors. A yard of handkerchief linen one yard wide will make nine twelve inch squares, which may be finished Ain various ways. If you are brave, seal Top the edge in small scaHops and col bred cotton If time is consideration apply a very narrow separate hem of colored linen and either stitch it by hand or by@nlachine. Another pretty and decorative way of finishing the handmade handkerchief is to roll the edge and overcast it with a colored cot ton, going back over this overcasting and reversing the process so that the second stitches cross the first ones There is also plain buttonhole edge that may be done in coIors or a but tonholfng that is being much used for seenterpieces, where, instead of each stitch following the other in even pro- cession, about four or five buttonhole stitches radiate from one point to the edge forming something very like a shell crochet

upon seasons he reigned supreme in the field of millinery until the novelties Of the manufacturers superseded him. Then the poor birds died off for want of funds to keep thems and ever SO many tragic things happened to them, but next winter promises them a return to power. One of the early fall hats shows a band of uncurled ostrich, and dress tunic displays an edging of. the -curIed variety.
 Black velvet trimmings for fGOcks are exceedingly smart. They are fre- quently detachable. so that the same trimmings can be worn with more than one frock. To a white dress black vel-' vet adds just the needed note of char acter.
 Yes, tunics are being worn. They are so adaptable and afford such variety as a trimming that neither designers nor wearers are disposed to part with their versatile lines. There is ru-

waists of velvet combined with ch1f- |fon with silk or with georgette crape are popular. Owing to it's greater weight, however, velvet is mostly used for the lower section of the waist ana in the sleeves; \ also for trimming touches in the collar and yoke.
 Waists of georgette crape. in dark colors over flesh color or white ch1f- fon Things have trimming touches of wool or silk embroidery. or of beaded effects or of soutache braid. or they are simply finished with shocking, with small tucks or with little plaits. Other materials in favor for waists are, chiffon cloth, crepe de chine, mar quisette, gros de 1ondres, taffeta, satin and fancy silks. The striped and plaid taffetas are very smart for early fall l wear.
 There is a big demand for crepe de chine waists in white and in flesh color.

PIaim Shoes Loom Upon
 PasMi0m's H0riD@mo

MEMBERS of the four associations of
 boot and shoe manufacturers at meeting held in the Hotel Astor, New York, decided that women the coming season should wear the plain, sensible black shoe instead of the fancy foot wear that has been so popular.
 The shoe with plain toes will be the snaartest, and in the better grades a narrow receding toe will be found. AL ways in black, the biggest sellers will be those of the cloth top variety, both lace and button.
 Heels win remain the same. and in the medium priced shoes there will be the same easy rounded toes. Fancy shoes will be of the front lace type There will be no colored top stitchings or perforations. Colored buttons are a thing of the past.
