Tan nhoes are going to have, an Im mense r-i!e this year, whereas lat sum mer it was almost Impossible to secure a pair of these comfortable and wrvcealiH shoes unless one had them made to oilier. Shoe dealers have laid in a large supply or tans !n anticipation of coming sa.e. rtnd never tefore has there been uch a J great assortment or styles as can u ww now. or course "there Is no shoe quite hke the low tan oxrord for golfing, walk ing and general utility.

A shoe dealers Inform prospective purchas ers that there will be not the slightest danger of Bllpplng. Tan shoes like this cost $7 and so do the patent leathers, while thewhite suede coma at $8, and the white canvas at $6.50. White shoes will be the proper accom paniment of light costumes this season, and after all It Is not such an extravagant fashion "for the shoes clean as well as gloves do. In fact, It Is considered rather an economical choice on account of this renovating quality. - Stockings will match the ehoes. of course. Among the prettiest variation. In this department are shots with white suede vamps and. dull green counters and heels, or dull j-rede, tans, blacks In fact,' -any color one chooses. With these shoes the stockings should exactly match the darker color,, as tnese shoes- are Intended for afternoon wear at summer resorts, fhe heels are next to the highest mark. Curiously enough these usually precede or follow the wearing of bathing sandals, or the good old "sneak er," without which the truly summer girl could not posslblly get through the games and pleasures of the season. The pret tiest sandals to wear in the surf are of white canvas, supplied with extra long ribbons of the same material to wind about the leg from ankle to knee, where they fasten in a small stiff bow directly in front which usually shows, now and then, below the short bathing suit skirt. These, of course, vary scarcely any In style, except that this year the owner will have her monogram worked on the tip of the toe. Heelless like the sandal Is the white canvas "sneaker" with Its pliable leather sole, which makes It admirably adapted to athletic sports, such aa tennis, golf, boat ing and yachting. . Up to this point the fashionable woman has run from perfectly flat footwear to the moderately high and then back again to no heels. She now begins another ascent by putting on a pair of the latest French heeled patent leather afternoon shoes, which may be one of several cuts, but invariably, however. Is supplied with very high heels, say two lncb.03 or so. These shoes may be cut high and made with a series of straps buttoning over the Instep and with the , sandal effect further carried out by open spaces to simulate straps running almost to the end of the toe. Fancy stockings look very at tractive as one sets a glimpse of them through the interstices . in the patent leather. , - - , . Buckled low shoes have come. In again, nrtvt- tviio Jiiffprpnw however, that the buckles are much smaller than those M previously worn, and they are genera uy of some tine meiai. sucn as genuine buvci gilt, bronze, polished brass, martele sil ver or are set with some of the cheaper and effective gems. The buckle nts over a narrow strap and Is altogether scarcely more than one Inch across and half that they are about an Inch high, and mark he third degree in the heel symposium. It might not be amiss to describe a few of the newest ideas in this footwear, foi every woman la interested In styles as well as in heels. The plain walking shoe la tntlt on exactly the same lint. as ct man's, the sole Is slightly extended and ! stitched, the . toe Is more pointed man blunt, and there Is the faithful Up .with Its row of perforations. One of the novel ties in this line shows a short and broad tongue that has a line of perforations and mosaic work done in 'a fighter bhtde of tan across the top of the tongue and ap pearing Just above- the .-silken knot. A Gibson tie In tan Russia calf has no tip. a rather high Cuban heel, two very large eyelets either side of the blucher front and a thin, flexible sole. This shoe prom ies to have considerable vogue, but it la neither one thing nor the other, and a woman f discrimination will choose a white ennvaa or patent leather in this cut f ahi-e aai reserve the commoiisen.je In.s; for L-vn4. Tan DuniDs are an Innovation thai grew out of the popular low cut shoe of last summer. Shoes wera reduced to one eye let a year ago, and then women revelled In all sorts of fancy hosiery which these shoes displayed to advantage. Pumps, as their name suggests, are lower in cut. in fact, the V shaped opening leaves very Xb7 2 r , "v S , s s Sr V 7' r i.. j'- r Url "'fLf9 isSVl f iV ' ' i 'is 't A A I within an Inch and a half of the toe, where It Is finished with a small square bow of ribbon to match the shoe. These little over the Instep, tor the point comes shoes look as though they would be very difficult to keep on the foot and would slide up at the heel with every step, but the counter runs under the arch of the in step and Is -doubly braced so that the size up and down. After alL there Is nothing more charming In the way of footwear . than a daintily made patent leather shoe with high French heel and trim little buckle for ornamentation. This takes away the unfinished appearance, and is much dressier than silk lacAs, how ever broad and fanciful these may be. House slippers are either black satin or bright colored suede, varnished leather being restricted at present to street and carriage wear. Nearly all of these indoor shoes are 'supplied with very high heels and are cut as low as possible In front on the order of pumps. A tiny bow of satin ribbon and perhaps a buckle one third the size used for carriage shoes are . all that good taste permits In the way of ornamentation on these afternoon house shoes, but when It comes to those Intend ed solely to .accompany evening gowns there Is really no limit to the amount and kind of decoration one may safely choone. It all depends upon the beauty of the gown with which they are; to be worn. Stockings should match in style aa well as magnificence. It Is In these shoes that art, as well as woman, reaches the very high water mark, for the heels are not a fraction of an inch under four, and they are built on such slender lines that the observer wonders how a woman manages to balance herself thereon. From this dizzy height there Is a sud den descent to the slipper! without any heel, that is, the comfortable little af fair that may be either a Turkish one of soft leather or whatever the feminine fancy happens to choose Ifor bedroom wear. Thus through the day there Is a new heel to make Its appearance with almost every stroke of the hour by the clock and In that time the 'entire gamut in styles, shapes, heights and sizes is run. ". . White Spats. . With her patent-leather walklnr boots fair woman now has a fad for wearing pure white "spats," or gaite-s, of suede or broadcloth. To be sureithvy are ex tremely perishable, for they! soil so quick ly, when worn with a dark shirt, but they are the very latest cry, and not to wear them argues yourself behind In the fads of the day. When summer; fairly begins they will be a trifle warmj but for sev eral weeks, now they - will enjoy their reign and then pass away, as does every other novelty, whether It is; something to wear or a new breed of dogs. With patent-leather shoes the white spats look particularly well, giving a smart note to an entire street costume. They are sel dom seen with tan shoes, j but It would not be bad form for one to make use of this combination If it happened to please the Individual. Of course, white canvas and suede footwear can be enhanced- by the wearing of Immaculate white spats, but when it is warm enough to don shoxs of this perishable color It Is generally high time to discard superfluous apparel. the Return of the Bun Now and then the famous and typical coiffUre of the English is heralded as ttie latest way to do up one's hair, and onco more we are told that the bun Is In favor. It never has taken with the American woman, but that is no reason for believ ing that it will not become popular this season. However, It is safe to vvuxer the days of the bun are not long in this land. There never was a more hideous find un becoming fashion for arranging the hair than the round wad In the nape of the neck that is designated as a bun, and the great point about it Is that no woman can keep .her -hair!-tidy looking when It Is done up in this style, unless she wears a net over it. Nets, of course, are rather attractive additions to a ! coiffure; but then, again, so few know, how to adjust them properly, and, besides, ihey have a way of making even a young person ap pear older than she likes. On the whole there are a good many things to be said against the bun and very few In Its favor, not the least Important being the fact that it requires an enormous quantity of hair to make any showing whatever, and if one doesn't possess it naturally to re sort to switches and rats would be to weigh the head down tremendously, and In the end the bun would stand for fright ful headaches. i French Twist Combs. It doesn't make any difference whether you wear your hair In a French. twist or not, you must place your large shellback comb In such a way In the hair that It will give the Impression that you have adopted this style of coiffure. At present the fashionable woman's head displays no less than four large tortoise-shell combs. One Is placed In the middle of the back In a vertical position, as though it were confining the edge of the roll; two show at the sides, after the fashion of the usual sldecomb, and ' then there j Is one above the upper end of the vertical bit of shell, apparently for no reason whatever unless It be for looks, for there, are no stray hairs or colls to hold In place Just In this particular spot. - However, I this happens to be the fancy of .the moment, and women have not been slow to follow someone's lead, whoever that person was. "Money," said Senator Sorghum. "Is tbe cause of a great deal of corruption." "I am glad you admit it.', "Yes, I admit and deplore It. My ambi tion for sometime has been to get enough oi it to do oeyona tne reach of tempta tion.' 'Washington Star, j Mr. Short-Can Z believe It rou win really marry met " I Miss Tall Yes. I always make mr own dresses, and, as we are both the same height, you will come real handy when I am cutting and fitting. New Yoxk Weekly. j v i
