The low Colonial four poster, after
a long siesta, has q revived popu-
larity. Low slipper chairs are count
ed amongst the boudoir adjuEcts.

combined is double space saver
Draft screens harmonizing with the
room allow a free current of air
without dread of catching cold.
Pink bouGoirs are the rage, but not
an insipid pink. Pink combined with
violet. gray painted furniture, canary
colored curtains, sapphire blue carpet
and glazed chintzes in flower and bird
design is surely daring. III this
room two little gray French COM
modes joined by a top of glass form
ed a dressing table, besides which
was a low needle work chair. Above
the gray painted wood table hung a
gray painted flower panel painted in
gray ami upon the table stood porce-
lain fisurines holding candles and
last but not least on the wall were
ole pictorial prints.

ed in the mems footwear fashions
for spring and summer. Both in the

whipoord variety. or else in softly
shaded tones of leather.
Where the two-tone effects are

shown in the uppers arc gun metal,
gray, chocolate, tan, dark green dark
blue or oxblood, and a few cham
pagnes.
In the cloth tops. the colorings are
more varied and include additional
tones Of the same basic colors as
described for the leather tops.
On these shoes there is a strong
showing Of fancy button effects in
pearls worries, sraoked ivory anG
mother pearl.
The above styles are the mere ex-
IRENE effects of the season, but the
conservative dresser Will COlIllIlue "
confine himself to the one-tone leather
shoe, either in black kid, Wei, patent
leather, tan, russet or oXblood eff
fects.
English lasts are the keynote, en-
bodying ., long forepart and flat
tread. Toes are either medium mar
row or medium high and round, and
d few models show the long drawn
out toe. Shanks are medium in
width and ONLY in tde higher heel
effects arc the narrower shanks
shown, While the wide heels show
broad full shank.
Edges are for thu most part close.
Vamps are a trifie longer and square
counter foxings are shown in the
most popular shapes.
LeatheIs are of vici, gun metal and
Russia, and a few kangaroos in the
heavier styles for carly spring.
For mid summer, white canvas and
nubuck oxfor6s viii be observed, but
not to any degree of pronounced

The popularity for caps IS still on
