Never has footwear beeni. so extreme in styles, so high in price, ] i nor so fascinatingly attractive as it is I this season, and to have different foot- li wear for each costume is a delight ful impossibility for many. However the new pumps of soft gray kid, shown by 1110 Walk-Over Boot Shop, 22G Market street are a smart novelty in ! footwear which are not only most at- , tractive, but practical as well to wear with almost, any costume. They are shown in a beautiful Swiss model, with narrow straps crossed over the instep and fastened on each side with fl single button. I A Hint From Paris "Taffeta, of course for suits and j frocks" says all Paris, and "taffeta, smartly combined with serge of con trasting color" is the very last word of the creators of Fashion. Astrlch's, Fourth and Market, streets, are show-1 ing these stunning suits, and several strikingly attractive models are spe-' daily priced at .iust ?25. One is of crisp ! l'la- k taffeta, with a broad band of! navy sergo giving a smart tlnlsh at the bottom of the skirt. The jacket is l banded and belted with serge which also appears at collar and cufTs. The! double advantage of serge for early wear, and the chic coolness of taffeta for all summer use, makes these suits an especially good selection for the woman who wishes one suit to serve for both Spring and summer.
