SHOE STYLES.

ly long, narrow shoe, but Paris boot
makers shortened the vamp when copy

Is a la mode today and will be for
spring and summer is the half short
vamp with arch under the foot and
the Cuban heel. If boot, then it will
be the black with colored top bordered
in the patent leather around the lac
ings at the top, and the seam at the
back will be covered. The top part is

gray or white.
If the shoe is low it will be Of
patent leather with long tongue that
extends above the instep and posed
over the toes will be a wide black
buckle If for afternoon. imita-
ton black enamel If for morning.
These two styles are the best, but
there are hundred variations.
For evening the smartest thing is the
strapped slipper Of brocaded silk (gen-
orally yellow and white). or else the
slipper is laced across with ribbons.
then wound about the leg above the
anklet, filet fashion. Some Of the best
bootmakers show the little old fash
Toned slipper, cut low with Just one
strip over or above the instep. This is
for afternoon and evening wear, for it
is equally pretty in black calf and
white cotin nunr tho &c,
chou of satin or leather. This model
is extremely simple, In keeping with
clothes, and it will be in fashion for
long time.
The toe Of all footgear is neither
round nor pointed, just a healthful,
sculptural cut. The heel for evening
slippers is high and curved, but half
an inch shorter than the original Louis
XVI, which means that heels are
quite moderate and simple.
1t took Parisiennes a long time to
give up their dearly beloved buttoned
shoe, but once relinquished they have
taken to the laced article with en-
thusiasm. For elegance they admit
the buttoned model is the best, but
the other article now appears so femi-
nine to them that it is sure to remain.
Frenchwomen of the old school cling
to buttons on shoes, and dealers and
makers have ceased trying to persuade
them that the laced shoe is better than
the other. When buttons are used
here they are half size, and fastidious
women who can afford it have the but

When arranging these little doll

manner, II a closet with a window Is
used all the better, as the opening will
provide draft for smells, and the closet
can be got up a good deal in a regular
kitchen manner. There could be the
white paint that cleans so easily, a
brick red linoleum and white enamel
ed shelves set with an array Of cook
ing vessels and attractive crockery
utensils for holding the things of the
larder. If much cooking goes on an
icebox is indispensable, and the porta-
BILE nursery ones are just the sort to
get, as these are very small, although
generous enough for the use Of two

VINES FOR SHADE.
What to Choose to Screen Your Porch
or Your Back Fence.

What to Choose to Screen Your Porch
or Your Back Fence.
Vines for shading purposes require
dense growth. One Of the ways to get
this after the proper ones have been
selected is to insure good soil, plenty
of water and frequent cultivation.
Vines must make their growth quickly
and uninterruptedly to make good
screening or shading, and for this rea-
son hardy perennial ones are best.
To show rapid top growth a vine
must have a large root mass. This
can be assured by planting in a spe-
cially prepared trench or pit excavated
to depth of eighteen inches. If the
subson is hardpan or sticky clay,
drainage material consisting of broken
stones, large clinkers from the furnace
or other mineral rubbish should be
put in the bottom to a depth Of three
inches.
Dense growing vines are gross feed
ers and soon exhaust the soil in the
trenches if it is not naturally good and
kept up yearly. All those recommend
ed prefer a soil with an alkaline re-
action, which is secured by the use Of
lime. If a good soil is not available
make one from chopped up sods or
good garden loan, adding one-third
the bulk of well rotted horse manure.
For screening a north porch there is
nothing better than the Dutchman's
pipe vine (aristolochia), a vigorous and
rapidly growing vine, bearing when
grown in sunshine brownish flowers
resembling a pipe.
Another good vine for the north
porch is the new form Of the Virginia
creeper. known as Ampelopsis engel-
manni. with very dense foliage Of a
light green color turning to crimson in
the fall
Both these vines for shaded places
should be cut off a foot from the
ground every winter and new shoots
run up every spring, as this insures
a more dense growth of foliage
The bignoria when grown semi-dwarf
is a good vine for the trellis. 1t bears
profusely large trumpet flowers and is
a rank grower. 1t should be cut back
to foot in height annually as it tends
to make coarse stems If allowed to
grow at will
The hop vines Humulus hepulus) are
very good for screening from the sun,
growing very luxuriantly.
The euonymus is especially good for
low porches, where a dense shade is
desired. 1t is evergreen and Of a deep
green color.
Many persons like honeysuckle for
shade, and it is good If properly
grown so that the foliage is well dis
tributed all over the vines In order
to accomplish this it should be grown
on a trellis Of wide mesh so that
it can be cut back to the porch
floor each winter and the old growth
removed. Frequent clippings during
the season will insure a continuance OF
bloom during a longer period. The
best variety for screening is halleana,
yellow and white and very fragrant
