leather slipper does not reign su
preme, as It once did; there arc satin,

New Shade of Gray.
Very fow new colorB have come out
this year, but there Is one thnt has a
now name, at all events. Ico gray It
Is called, and the shade Is really dif
ferent from nny of the multitudinous
grays which havo been on the market,
ico gray is not quite n smoke color,
nor Is It at nil on the drab order, but
It Is an attempt at a pale, clear, trans
parent looking gray. A bluish glint or
shlmmor gives It the name.
New color effects In dress goods aro
continually being Invented, and every
year wo see mora beautiful shades
than those wo havo known before.
The simple pinks and blues and hard
grays of ten years ago would hardly
bo acceptable now. Softer colors and
complex Intermlngllngs of shades are
sought by the smait women.
Tho now Ice gray Is a beautiful
winter tint, nml Is handsome when
made up with touches of gieen, or
simply combined with white finished
by a trimming of delicate frosty-look-lug
lace.
Pressing Outfit.
The girl who goes to college or the
woman who travels will npprecluto a
gift of a pressing outfit. The essen
tials are a tiny iron such ns is used in
pressing the frills of babies' caps, a
small bread-cutting board, and any
one of tho numerous heating inven
tions which are made to tit over n gas
Jot. A square of due sandpaper and a
stick of wax complete tho outfit, which
may bo packed In a neat box. The
Iron nnd the board aro to be had at
the 10 cent stores. Tho convenience
of the outfit is very great. Humpled
ribbons and veils, handkerchiefs,
stocks, laces nnd frills can bo fresh
ened In one's own room, nnd certain
chiffons mmlc to do duty over and over
ugalu.
Monte Carlo Coats.
Tho Monte Carlo coat in various
designs Is again popular this season.
Some of tho coats aro In three-quarter
styles, others arc In hip length
with nn Inverted plait at tho center of
tho looso back and n similar plait
on each side of tho box fronts. The
styles In cloth, ns a rule, have a single
capo collar and bishop sleeves, while
the silk coats havo flowing sleeves
and two shoulder collars, with a llnish
ot laco or embroidery and a double
row of buttons.
If tho white woolen shnwl has be
come soiled, dip It into n bath of
corumoal nnd rub It thoroughly.

The Taffeta Gown.
Tho taffeta gown, although it may
bo not as popular ns some of tho other
creations, Is, nevertheless, a beautiful
effect and hns that body aud rustlo

else. Then, too, it can be made to

a bolero, or a frock and frills effect;
t:pper portion it Is a great favorite.
