AIjWATH at this season of tho
year, thoro comca a special In
spiration In tho way of clothes
that nro plain and simple, and nn out
growth of all of tho now ntylcs that
havo been advanced as tho season's
fashion offorlngs. An you look at
thcRo frocks do lux's, they appear
harmless enough not a whit nor a
Jot of trimming that Is extra and un
formed. Tho foot la that they have
reached tho perfected stago tho placo
whoro they aro ouro and oertaln of
themselves, not afraid to say that
thoy stand for tho beat efforts of a
new designing season and that, an
tlmo passes, thoy will remain aa rep
resentative of their age.
This year, strangely enough, you
seo tho ono-plcco dross coming back,
back, back. It has many new points
and features and, sometimes, It Is so
camouflaged and developed that It
cannot Via recoirnlzcd, at first sight,
ai tho thing it la. But nevertheless
It remains tho ono-plece affair that
wo were Introduced to bo many years
ago and that wo havo clung to with
so great a degree of affection, not to
say lovo. It gives ua comfort to tho
last Inch of Its making, it la beautiful
In line, It lets tho material show to
Its best advantage and, mora than
anything else. It expresses our Ameri
can Ideal of efficiency plus charm
which Is so muoh a part of our dress
ing as well as every other expression
of our lives.
In tho picture of tho girl who la slt
t'ng down, there la shown one of theso
extremely simple models with all the
grace and line that the beat of them
aro showing since the season haa be
come established, and tho one-piece
dress knows exactly what it Is doing.
This one is mode of Kasha cloth, a

spreading over lta area. The color of
this gown la a cream yellow, one of
tho lighter tonea In which Kasha cloth
finds Its bestcxprcsslon. Thcro Is, In
deed, no trimming at all, for the bur
dan of tho design falls upon the qual
ity of tho material plus tho beauty of
Its cut and shaping dons by a de
signer who knows what she Is about
and how to place her efforts to make
them show tho best.
Then Shoes Come In for
Attention.
Shoes promise to take a muoh mora
active part in fashion Ufa than they
have done for some time past. There
are all aorta of Indications of this.
From Paris, como kid boots that are
cut and fitted to charm the eye and
to bring these extremities of our at
tire right into tho limelight. Wo
havo begun to tako notlco too of
that thore Is little doubt when you
look about at tho be ribboned and
pompomed varieties of slippers that
have already made their appearance.
From Paris como tho boots that you
see on the costume photographs on
this page. They are fringed and slit,
and all sorts of interesting things are
done to them which have not been
done In the past, as far aa we remem
ber. We may think they look
a little outre for our usee, but then
we would havo thought that about tho
strapped onea wo wear now If we
could havo looked upon them three
years back. Who knows but we may
bo wearing these decorative affairs
on our feet in leas than three years to
como?
And these booties or slippers or
whatever they aro called, aro done In
all colors. Preferably, they match tho
gown. Or they are made In some
highly contrasting color whloh either
harmonizes with the trimming of the
costume or serves to set off the gown
In some unusual manner.

R I Q H T THE PLAIN,
STRAIGHT DRESS HAS
EVOLUTED TO THI8
STAGE AT MID-SEASON.
Women who go In for tho construc
tion of their wardrobes with a great
deal of zeal and particular attention
spent upon their artistic effect aro
coming, nowadays, td tho shoo shops
with designs sketched for their own
particular boots. Thoy havo ordered
the costume and tho artist attending
to the design of tho whole haa recom
mended shoes of soft kid to anit that
costume. Therefore, tho American
shoemakers for the smart set, aa well
as those from Paris, are turning to
and making the boots which the artts
tlo limits 'of the newer dresses are de
manding. Of course, thoy coat a lot
of money, but so doea everything else
that is ultra mart. And the general
opinion la, that if we must have longer
skirts, why then we will turn that con
tingency Into an advantage for our
selves and wo will draw attention tn
our pretty feet and anklea by this
totally now and original method.
Hats Turn Up Tarn Down.
Out of tho mass of winter head
gear thoro como two typea of hats
which havo ovory stamp of befng and
continuing to be leaders. They aro
tho ones that turn back, showing,
nevertheless, a wide expanse of brim,
and those that turn down, showing
but a very small quantity of brim.
One typo Is worn by the woman sit
ting down in tho picture. She has
chosen that little, round, mushroom
shape with a high crown and a simple
trimming held tightly around the sides
of that crown. Tho other picture
shows tho wide and flaring brim that
(turns away from tho faco and Is so
apparently becoming to certain types
of women. Tho width at tho sides
is ono of the newer features which
can be counted upon to carry over
Into the new season because it has
been so extremely, popular during this
one.
Coiffures in the Latest Manner
THERE Is a new cotffur. Of that
there is no doubt. And not only
ono of them, Indeed, but several
to suit the various types of dressing
which havo been adopted In this new
fashion scheme. No longer can wo be
carelessly Informal about tho dress
ing of our hair. Now, if we would
movo in tho best circles, wo must
look to Its grooming and shaping with
especial care, for every typo of girl
and of costumo has Its coiffure espe
cially allotted to It according to tho
nawnr fashion dictates.
On this page aro shown three of
them the classic Psycho in all Its
traditional form, tho frizzly, sweety
manner of hair dressing and the
plainly combed trcssea that roll over
tho ears and make puffs thcro to

Now all this necessity for change

You go to tho theatre now or to

girls do not wear hats, and you poo

womanly tresses Is mado much more

thero are nil Indications that girls
havo seen hair dressing in a new
light.
Even tho bobs have passed away,

at least for formal dressing. No, the
girls havo not let their hatr grow In
tho short Bpaco of time covered by
u halt width of one season. Nature
would not chime In w,lth such a pro
cedure. But they have taken to
switches, which aro applied to tho
bobbed heads In various ways. One
of tho most popular methods of dis
guising tho bob for formal hours Is to
tako a long switch and to owlrl It
about tho head so that It looks as
though yards and yards of luxurious
hair had been trailed around In a
coronet arrangement. That Is about
the most becoming of all methods.
Tho girls who have bobbed heads
say that they positively will not give
tl.em up, Thoy insist that the com
fort of combing out short tresses Is
too enormous and that, If they must
be In tho swim of fashion, they will
do It In some other way besides let
ting their hair grow to extraordinary
lengths and then havo to tako caro of
that extra abundanco of growth.
