VOGUE FOR NARROW nELTs.

The call for narrow leather belts, which for, some time has been the feature of the novelty leather goods business, continues to grow as the vogue for them spreads north, west and south. For quite a while the out of town stores did not play these arti- cles as strongly as they might have, but now this situation has changed In great many instances the belts are apparently worn for no other req son than that other women and girls are wearing them. but that fact is not causing any worry to the concerns which make the belts. Like many other fads, they were started with a particular end in view, but quickly outgrew the original idea. Even stout women are wearing them, despite the axiom that people with hips" should do nothing to accentuate their waist lines.
