Coming Styles in Shoes.

High-heeled shoes are to be fashion
able for the coming spring and sum-
mer. Fashion authorities say that
heels will be higher than for several
seasons. Some shoes now shown for
spring have heels 21S inches in height.
Louis and half-LOuis heels will be
strongly featured, and Cuban heels
will continue to be popular, especially
on shoes with cloth tops. White shoes
are to be tremendously Popular, and
with Dame Fortune favoring longer
skirts, low shoes will probably be more
fashionable than lace models, accord
ing to present predictions, and this
is due in good part to the fact that
with feathers of all kinds at top-notch
prices cloth-top shoes will have a con-
tinued or even increased'run of favor,
and for shoes of this kind the button
style of fastening is considered more
desirable than lacing.

Danger Age for Women.

When woman stands on the thresh-
old of thirty-fve, she stands on the
edge of the precipice of falling mus
cles, graying hair and overweight. Sag
ging muscles more than anything else,
even more than wrinkles, cast the
shadow of advancing age. Therefore,
If you see the muscles of the cheeks
beginning to drOop as If too weary to
hold themselves firm, assist them by
fastening a tight muslin band about
the chin and pin or clasp it at the
crown Of the head. Loose, baggy skin,
usually follows in the wake Of these
ugly dropping muscles, and to treat
that, tilt the chin upwards and press
a smooth piece of ice firmly against it
as long as you can bear the cold.

New Idea in Arm Drapery.

New evening gowns from Paris
have an attractive method Of draplng
the arm. It is modification Of the
style that was considered smart in
the fifteenth century. Two streamers
Of tulle are put into the under arm
hole, brought first over the top of the
arm and crossed, and continue to
wrap the arm in this latticework fash
ion, to the wrist.
Not only does this fashion appeal to
the woman who is planning a new
evening gown, but to the woman who
would like to give new touch to an
old frock. The tulle should be the
same color as the bodice. If one likes
the glitter Of jewelrE, small orna-
ments Of crystal can be put at each
intersection Of the tulle, on top of the
arm. 1t is always well to mark the
wrist with a cOlOred crystal Of some
kind or even a bracelet.
The medieval idea of covering the
arms for the evening remains in high
fashion. Each designer has invented
a peculiar trick and many women
have thought out schemes for them
selves. There is the cape of chiffon
Or tulle that falls over the arm to
the knuckles Of the hand and is some.
times held in place by a ring on the
finger.
There are long, ffteenth-century
sleeves that snugly fit the arm from
shoulder to wrist, with a wide flare
over the hand. These are made of
bullion tissue or gold or silver lace,
and the most effective ones are en-
crusted with colored crystals.
Women who have individual tastes
are making medieval gowns for eve
ming house wear which have sleeves
Of flesh-colored satin made In small
puffs going around the arm between
shoulder and wrist, which are held in
place by narrow, jeweled bands.
The woman who has time and

FOR EVENING WEAR
AGAIN AccoRDioN-PLAlTED LACE
DRESSES ARE IN VOGUE.
Worn With Satin Coats or Long,
Straight Tunics-Descrlption Of
Simple coffure in Severely
Classic Style.

Accordion-plaited lace dresses are
again very fashionable for evening
wear and these are almost always ac-
compahied by trained satin coats or by
long straight tunics composed of print
ed or embroidered chiffon, writes a
Paris correspondent.
A Cheruit dress was composed of
midnight blue chiffon and 1t was en-
riched with wide bands of superb en-
broidery worked in silver threads and
blue and black silk. Heavy fringes held
these embroidered bands in place and
at the waist there was loose, quite
narrow, sash which was also covered
with embroidery.
This sash was knotted low down in
front, in Fatlma style. The corsage of
this model was very quaint and orig
lnal. OF sleeves there were none and
the corsage was almost high back and
front while 1t fell off the shoulders.
Redfern is having a great success
with shaped centuries. These centuries
mold the hips closely, but do not in
any way compress the waist. Redfern
has always been an admlrer of Greek
draperies and he is of opinion that the
women Of today, especially American
women, are quite as beautifully formed,
and as graceful of movement, as were
the beautiful creatures whose statues
grace our museums.
Apropos Of classic styles Imust draw
your attention to the simple coiffure
