expected that tho dark true browns wil have a more general appeal colored footwear in doep dark reds greens and purples is scarcely con sidered a novelty as the vogue this season is to combine in the ensemble the various shades of one colortone for example if one chooses a navy costume ono will wear with it lighter shades of blue but the footwear will always match the deepest shade it is also chic to match shoes with the fur which trims the coat or with the hat and bag captivating novelties novelties however will include the reptiles and particularly lizard in deed snakeskin and alligator will be less seen than formerly but due to the fact that lizard is an expensive leather it will most often merely trim the model lizard is easily suscept ible to the dye bath and is offered not only in

imitated in grained calfskin other novel leathers which fashion chic footwear include those which re semble fox pelts and the rough weaves of silks the fox leathers have a grained effect that

is pleasing of the leathers kid will lead for early fall the fashionists declare fol lowed in style importance by reptiles suede and patent later this autumn and for winter suede will supplant the position of kid moving tho latter to third place from a popular stand point however patent will achieve recognition straps and buckles a detail worthy of note is the com bination of colors and leathers in one model as an example the vamp may be of lizard with the quarter of kid the heel can be either of lizard or kid depending upon tho stylo ot the shoe or two tones of tho same color will combine smartly one color per haps dividing the shoe across the in step the latter combination seems to break the length of the shoe and is flattering to the wearer pumps as last year are most dis

worn than last year this heel is not as heavy as it appears has a resilience of tread and is highly polished so that it is not at all conspicuous perhaps one of the most outstanding features of the

three of their worst members to hunt the subwarden observing them and he had a very exciting time this herd has also developed a method of leading the officers of tho department along selected routes which they do not even follow at other times themselves through water holes and swamps and black mud until they discourage the attentions of the game rangers in fact it has become a game of
