Leather Fixings. Leather fixings of all sorts play a most important part in the outfit of up-to-date people, and each season brings new models that accord with " Remember, sir, J am a British subject." That is what a Jamaica negro, down at the Panama Canal, says if you speak to him harshly. He speaks in a soft, melodious way, with in English accent that would pass on the Strand, and it takes six of him to carry a tie that two Italians would pick up with ease.

She (. has them eitner made to order, or, purchasing 'one of the most important articles, shops' about until she succeeds in complet ing the' whole set. Perhaps, if she is1 artful, she lets her family and inti mate friends know that she is bent on gathering the collection and then often receives a birthday gift or an : Easter remembrance that helps to. fill out her matched set of accessor ies, i Shoe Wrinkles. , Colored shoes are to be more in j demand than ever and to describe! the array of these that one sees ,at; smart shops and on well dressed wo men would require more space thani I can give in my column. Very dres sy effects are most in demand and, leathers with a glossy . finish are( especially popular. The woman who likes the appearance of patent leath-j er but finds it unpractical for gen-; eral wear as well as uncomfortable on the foot is delighted with the new: Chrome tanned glazed kid which hasj a finish almost as glossy as patent leather but is porous, and very com fortable, while it is also unusually j Hnmhin heinff made from goat skin,; which is the toughest hide known to I the tanner. The nicest stores are showing pretty models in high and low shoes made to meet the fash ionable demand for the new leather, which originating in Paris has found favor in New York. High Arches and Medium Toes. High arches and a medium toe with a rather rounded point are character istics of the best new models in wo man's footwear this season. A very attractive tie, with large single eye lets through which ribbon is run, matching either the shoe or its trim mings, is one of the fetching types shown at a leading shop here. Fancy combinations of contrasting leather, cioth, and canvass, for uppers with odd vamps are in great demand and at Palm Beach and other winter re sorts where summer styles are first exploited. Shoes and matching ac cessories of light colored kids, white and colored canvas and flowered cot ton fabrics are now being worn by the people who lead the fashion in this country. The Cretonne Fad. Cretonne used for trimmings and accessories was revived last eai after a long season of desuetude, and promises to be much more generally taken up the coming summer. Belts, vests, hats, parasols ana even buues are made up of the flowered cottons, formerly relegated exclusively to the upholstery departments. Not. only are these employed as indicated but the figures in them are cut out and applied for dress garnitures in a variety of ways. An imported gown of grey and white striped taffeta with bindings of black satin has appliques of small crimson roses cut from cretonne put on with a chain stitch of black silk at the belt about the bodice trimmings. ' whites and blacks are not used as much as formerly in contrast with costumes.
