personal experience.
Stockings and shoes cannot be con-
sidered apart, for they are carefully
mated these days. The wrong sort

take which the woman who, is par

lows herself to make. But it is better
to make a mistake in stockings than
in shoes for unless the latter are cor
rect, woe be to the whole costume!
Fashion and convention now give
sanction to the buttoned type of boot
for all formal and semi-formal oc-
casions. The laced boot is permissible
on semi-formal occasions-if one
really prefers the style-but it is not
considered as smart and correct as the
buttoned boot. And the latter is very.
very dainty. 1t is really surprising.

nicely. Even then-culy ten years ago
white stockings were the exception

who ever thinks of wearing black

1t seems incredible, but in those
long ago days of the eighties and even
the early nineties, stockings were
changed, like union suits twice-or
even only once a week. A fresh pair
OF stockings every morning was almost
an anectation. There was no par
ticu1ar economy about this-for stock

deal longer-it was merely the "cus-

1t was the coming of white stock
ings that changed this now extinct and
barbarous custom; and nobody now
would think of wearing stockings a
second day any more than of using a
crumpled pocket handkerchief a sec

keeps step with fashion wears several
pairs of stockings each day; one must

The fower-trimmed net frock pictured
is almost too ''fussy''-so would say
the average mother in all, probability
for childish wear, were 1t not that
it is a bridesmaid frock destined to
reappear later as a party frock. The
material is very pale ecru net and
the tiny roses are in pinkish mauve
shade. The hair-ribbon matches the
roses and the pink. wicker basket is
filled with pink and lavender sweet
peas Cream silk stockings and pale
pink slippers accompany the frock.
The little frills edging skirt. sleeve
and bodice are very charming and
since they were cut from the edge of
the net first of all they had only to be
turned up once in hemming. Under
the net frock is a slip of white China
silk, which adds to the delicacy of the
ecru tint in the net.

FOULARD AND SERGE IN
COMBINATION.

again and the favorite combina-
ton is navy blue with polka dots
In white. But foulard by itself
alone is not up to the minute-there
must be some other fabric in plain
color used with it. Sometimes navy
blue Georgette Is united with the
dotted navy foulard; or foulard and

bined. But the smartest combination
in Paris now seems to be navy foulard
and navy serge, the dotted silk form

What Paris Says About Little Goats and Bonnets

them on new spring coat will bring
joy unspeakable to any childish heart
irrespective of sex. Many of the Paris
coats for little girls are strongly mill
tary in suggestion and one observes
that all these French coats for spring
are extremely simple in line and that
there is a tendency toward dispensing
with the belt. One of Lanvin's fam
Gus little coats is pictured. OF course,
every French mother who can afford
to, goes to Lanvin when new attire Is
wanted for the small daughter. Lam
vim specializes in children's raiment-
in little girls raiment, one should add
and her attractive rooms are filled
with big, beautiful dolls which pose
as models to exploit new and original
frocks, coats and bonnets for wee girls.
The Lanvin coat pictured is made of
soldier blue cloth with wide white
braid, narrow black braid and poll
ished brass buttons that do brightly
shine. The coat has an interesting
cut with plain coat sleeves set into
square armholes. These sleeves are
trimmed with the braid-there are no
cuffs: and at the neck the coat is gath
cred into straight collar. Additional
fullness is given by the circular shape
OF the coat itself and by the square
cut of the armhole. The hat has a
dashing military suggestion too; a
white straw hat it is, with blue braid
stitched in long loops over crown and
brim and a big white tassel dangling
from cord on top of the crown.

This Year s Stylesfor Stout Women

- Is not that the styles of the mo-
ment are designed for stout fig
ures-fashion never made such a
! concession as that!-but that most
of the current modes can be adapted
successfully for stout wearers. For
one thing. the jnpe tonssedu or barrel
skirt, though one would imagine that
the stout person ought to shy skittish-
ly at the very mention of 1t, is really
more becoming to bulky silhouette
than skirt that flares out in a
straight line from the waist. The
slight inward curve of the jupe tom
neGu makes the figure appear more
slender yet allows ample fullness at
and below the hips, an important fea-
ture in skirt that is narrow at the
ankle Then there are the draperies.
SO many sorts this season, and most Of
them soft, graciously flowing draperies
achieved with softly falling fabrics.
In addition to the -draperies are the
tassels and bead ornaments that hold
down materials and give long lines A
drapery plus q. bead tassel Is almost al
ways becoming to a stout figure, wher-
ever the drapery Is placed. A frock
in mind Is of pale gray crepe de chine
with soutache embroidery in dull blue.
There are pocket draperies like huge
cornucopias with turned down tops,
at either side OF a pleated skirt. The
pockets are set on well below the
hip and the blue embroidery of
soutache decorates the turned down
tops. Blue silk tassels help weight
Aawu the pockets. A sailor collar
or the soutached material falls to the
waistline where 1t is gathered in and
weighted by tassel. This artful de-
vice of long collar and tassel gives a
youthful, straight line at the back
the line SO seldom found in a stout
figure which has a pronounced in
ward curve at the back of the waist
Ne youthful figure ever has this curve,
It is always matronly in suggestion
and a clever dressmaker always seeks
to hide 1t. Unfortunately the woman
who does her own dressmaking or en-
ploys an unskilled seamstress too Of
ten neglects this important point in
the costume.
The stout woman Is well taken care
of. these days. For her there are spe-
cially made frocks and coats, special
petticoats. corsets and brassieres. In

Bingham For Play Hours.
Checked and plaid ginghams are
very fashionable this year for grown
women as we'll as for children: but on
childhood the bright plaid Bingham
is at it's best. The frock pictured has
a quaint and attractive style, partly
due to the frills used son belt and.
pockets. skirt and aftacfed shin usderss
