mings on every article of ones dress. Slippers that are good form are very plain, indeed The long vamp is still with us; heels do not seem to be quite so high as formerly, for they, too, have been hooved. Satin, the same color as the dress, is the first choice rhinestone buckle placed high on the slipper is very fashion able. Then one of the latest ideas in slipper decoration is a tiny bow of satin, a single bow of ribbon a quarter of an inch wide, perhaps. Many of the fall brides have chosen this for their wedding slippers. It gives the foot the long, narrow effect that is so distinctive. Slippers of brocade, of metal cloth. or of combi- nations of plain and figured materials are worn only on the most formal occasions Indeed, the all black or all white slipper is always appropri- ate and in good taste. Stockings must, of course, match the costume and the slipper.

 Picturesque, indeed are the compro- misses effected by fashion. The dress es are in the same wonderful tints and colors that nave always been favorites, perhaps though 8 uifie subdued. Some are high ill the back, square or round in from, with long sleeves of tulle or very short ones of the same material as the bodies or the overskirt. The waist that is cu. traight across f'om sh jaidel to shoulder is very popnler this year, for it gives :. effect of higher peck
 Simplicity and Lack of Trimming
 There is very little trimming on the new models. They seem to rely to a great exent on their line and color. and charming indeed is the result One of the most attractive of the new modes in evening gowns is illustrated here. It is of rose-colored satin, bodice and skirt, with a filmy overskirt or tunic of soft mist-gray chiffon, stitched on the lower edge with rose-colored silk in the long loose stitch which makes such a fascinating trimming. The collar and the short sleeves of the chiffon are stitched in the same manner.
 Good Taste in Slippers
 Just a word here about the slippers for evening, and the difference be tween those in good taste and those that are just trifle too ornate and overtrimmtd Life has invented g new word, the verb ito hoove," mean ing to conserve, and it is now being widely applied.
