New Shoes.

The colonial pump is the smart
shoe of the season. To be sure OK
fords are also worn for day dress.
They are rather high and are laced not
with ribbons, as they were last year,
but with tubular silk lacings. They
are made in kid. suede and black satin.
And the lacing holes are bound with
metal. But the colonial pumps are
newer. They, like the oxfords, have
French heels of medium height, almost
invariably with a little metal layer
that is now used to help keep the heels
even.
They are made in black and brown
kid and in patent leather. Sometimes
a buckle of jet or steel is fastened at
the bottom of the flaring tongue. One
striking and attractive type Of colo
NAL pump has the sides of the tongue
fastened to the shoe. This holds the
shoe on, at the same time giving the
attractive silhouette of the regulation
colonial pump.

BUILT ON STRAIGHT LINES
New Garments Really Are to Have
Only Little of the "Barrel"
Effect Promised.

Designers flirt with the public fancy
season after season by introducing
styles that are out of the ordinary !;
that differ radically from the ones in
use, and that have received general ap-
proval. The first offerings for the sea-
son Immediately to come have not es-
capped. Practically every designer has
brought out his or her own interpreta-
ton of the barrel overskirt, but many
of them admit already that it is merely
one of the novelties of the season and
that it is not taking" to any great
extent.
The straight-line frock, according to
the Kansas City Star, refuses to be
ousted. The two styles that seem des-
tined to hold sway for fall and winter
are the simple straight-line dress and
the more fitted redingote. Tunics
overskirts and pleated effects, especial
ly when accordion pleating is used, are
seen everywhere, but almost invariably
a straight silhouette is adhered to.
Wool jersey cloth again will be 8
reigning favorite next season for utility
frocks. Beige and gray are said to be
leading colors.

Road TO Ruin.

II occurred back in the East in the
country during the early spring.
A young fellow and his sister were
returning in the wee small hours from
dance in a neighboring town. He
was driving a flivver. They were both
tired and finally dropped Off to sleep.
II 30 happened that late the day be-
fore heavy farm wagon had passed
that way, leaving deep ruts In the
mud. and during the evening these had
frozen solid. The car was in one of
these ruts and ran along them with no
one guiding for some time. The tracks
turned several corners and finally
turned into a farmyard and went into
the barn.
The fiiv turned the corners and fol-
lowed the tracks into the yard. 1t was
going straight on and would have
smashed into the barn door had not
the girl walked in time to see the build
ing looming up just In front of them.
Realizing the situation Immediately,
she jammed on the brake and stopped
the car a few feet from the closed
dOOr.

The New Paris NecEWear.

Cape effects in broad multi-tier col
lars, with high directoire stocks. are a
dominant note of the present neckwear
fashion in Paris. Short-sleeved
guimpes are also extensively worn and
this fashion promises to be carried
over for general use in the coming sea-
son.
Both white and colored neckwear is
favored, white organdie and heavy
white linen, with delicate rose pink
crepe being extensively employed.
Fichu effects are also good and
berthas are coming steadily to the
front.

NEWEST HAT
Really Deviates Little From the
Present Style.
Designers Have Not Intended That the
"Chapeau" Is to Be Worn Further
Back on the Head-Brims
Roll Backward.

If you have read or heard about the
new off-the-face style of hats that have
been launched in Paris you may be un-
der the impression that as result of
this vogue we are going to wear our
hats farther back on our heads. Some
how, the hat that is tilted backward
still looks a little outlandish, and it
may seem to you as if it would be very
hard to give up the style of wearing
your hats well over your forehead.
However, these new hats are not ac-
tually worn back off the forehead. The
idea is that the brims roll backward
so that there is less shading of the
face, but the band of the hat takes the
same position now that it has for many
seasons, only that the hat is placed per-
fectly straight in order to give the right
effect to the falling back of the brim.
There is no longer any inclination Of
fashion to tilt the hat on one side.
The new hats simply were not made
for that sort of thing.
When all is said and done, it is
really the hat that determines the
way we do our hair, and as long as our
hats rest on our ears the same as
usual most of us will go on wearing
our hair much the same as usual. A
pompadour effect in front would be
the brims of hats rest across our fore
heads. 1t is only when hats merely
| rest on our heads in front that we can
attempt a much puffed or elaborate
front arrangement.
Time may come, and that not fal
off, when this tendency to pull oul
hats down on our foreheads gives way
to something else. 1t may be that the
poke hat that had only small vogue
last season will return in a true poke
form-that is, with a front brim thaT
really flares and very short bacl
that actually shows the hair in back
hat that really is more Of bonne
than a hat.
But if this type of hat is comm,
eventually, then the present off-the
face shapes are merely a depression
because they are placed well on tn
head. The only thing is that the brin
rolls back. And this roll-back brin
is something that will sell many yard
of yelling, for this type of hat is jus
the sort of thing that you need a
basis for the neat arrangement of
veil. American women have the reI
utation of arranging their wells bette
than any other women in the worl(
but the American woman will not al
tempt to arrange a veil unless she ha
something to arrange it on.

inch in front and slanting to two inch

Pull this gathering thread to head
size, about twenty-five inches, and
cover the gatherings with a band OF
pretty tinted ribbon, to which you may
add garland of tiny silk flowers to

gather the straight edge of the lace
into saucy little pompom on the top
and surround the gatherings with more
of the silk flowers. A chinstrap OF
the ribbon, which snaps into'a grace

Afternoon and Evening Gowns for Fall
and Winter Sumptuous in Fab
ric and Trimming.

Afternoon and evening gowns have
never been more gorgeous in coloring
than those now being offered for fall
and winter. Chiffon, crepe meteor,
tulle, lace and velvet are extensively
used in frocks Of the class indicated,
and often two, three, or even four
fabrics are combined in one gown.
Metal cloth is being used generously,
and glittering sequins, jet and rich en-
broideries play their part, and very
important part it is, in the adornment
of these dresses.
Brown shades are very popular for
next season, and they enter largely in
to the development of afternoon and
evening frocks. One especially charm
ing frock recently brought out was of
wood brown satin with tunic Of self
colored lace. Gold net forms the long
sleeves and is used for wide sash,
tied at the back in iaring bow.

The pantaloon skirt, variety of

Hatter's plush, duvetyn and velvet
continue to be the fabrics most in de-

by the many different styles of trim

Feathers of all kinds seem to be the
type of trimming best adapted to duve-
tyn hats, the soft, suedelike fabric and
the dropping ostrich, blondine or
even coque, making very smart COM

Tests made to determine the respec-

weighing 1000 pounds each. together,
pulled $3.50 pounds, or $50 pounds

elephant weighing 10000 pounds pulled
$3.50 pounds, or $3.50 pounds less than
its weight. Fifty men, aggregating
1850 pounds, pulled $3.50 pounds, or
tust as much as the single elephant,
but like the horse, they pulled more
than their own weight. One hundred
m@a pulled $1,000 pounds.
