pers and sandal type of shoe Is good. Often with frock that Is as plain as 8 pipe stem (and dresses are that way these days) the shoes will be the only mark of decoration, to which may be added the hat which matches them in shading and chimes In with the tone set by the standard of the footwear.
 It is the same with gloves. Much attention is given them these days and though they usually turn out to be only extended portions of the cos tumes itself, they are none the less studied in their essence. When one wears light stockings with a dark dress, then light gloves are good and to match. They roll over the cuffs of the sleeves and create a nice fin ish at that point or they fold over the arms under the ends of long and widely cut sleeves, having almost the same effect in the long run. Gaunt- let gloves are much liked, and so are those that reach the elbow when short sleeves are the order of the dress.

SHOES AND STOCKINGS


 There are not so many and chang ing styles In shoes and stockings as one might imagine, but the diverg- ences that do occur are loaded with importance
 Have you ever heard the express sion "a woman Is as well dressed as her feet?" Well, there Is a great deal in 1t, for when girl does recognize the fact that her feet must be smartly and jauntily clad, then she Is almost certain to know that the rest of her costuming must live up to the standards of that ideal Her feet, in the general category of fashions, are the last word and the first word, the beginning and the ending. If they are right and well clad, then in all probability the rest of her will measure up.
 Now there are fads In shoes and stocking just as in every other de- partment of style. But the trick lies in judging which styles are to be recognized and adopted and which are to be left alone. It is not always an easy distinction to make. It often happens, indeed, that one who Is experienced at making fashion

Judgments reaches the wrong con- clusion in this respect, and finds 1t necessary to retract her statements, if she has been foolish enough to make any. On the other hand a guess Is easy to make and it is all ways possible for you to guess right, especially If you keep your eyes open to the general condition of affairs. the trend of the designing of dresses the materials from which they are made and the lines that go to make up their construction.
 Just now there is a great latitude In the matter of shoes, and for that reason all them ore possibility ot error. When there were only two or three styles it was an easy matter 10 choose between them, but when there are myriads of difference shapes and cuttings, why, then, 1t is not such a simple performance to make a wise choice.
 Sport shoes are good in suede. in buskskin and in the ordinary and much used feathers and kids They are made in patches of black and brown against white, in sandals and in pumps with good heavy straps over the insteps to keep them from slipping from the feet at unexpected moments.
 Patent leather pumps are nice for dress wear as are the suedes in tans and grays in all sorts of tonings and shadings. Colored shoes have about gone out, that is, in the bright and vivid tones, and the softer browns and tans and grays remain in unin- terrupted possession of the scene.
 Then stockings come along to be placed in their classification of im- portance. They are important, too. They have it in their slender power, as things of fashion are arranged these days, to make or mar a costume and it is often the addition of just the right covering for the limbs that makes dress the complete success it manages to be. Flesh colored. ones have been done for some time but they are still in the heyday of their success. Reindeer is the newest shade and these can be either worn with black shoes or with suedes to match them exactly.
 With all sorts of street clothes the sweetest of slippers are worn. They have low heels and are comfortable to wear, but it seems as though, ex- capt for strictly sport wear, the slip
