A Crisp Column of News for Women -, , Readers. "Pemtt me now to show my mitt?' Said swagger Helen Hogan, Then wised aloft lier mitted hands, "Mitts mit iins" is our slogan. New York, 28. Yes, mitts are now on every and what ever will become of all those delicate -situations that have to bo handled with kid gloves goodness only knows. If wo are go :ng into the old fashioned fashions thoroughly it is only natural that we should look to our hands as -carefully as to our hips and you must needs admit that the mitted hand is as much a part of the 1830 modes is the ho'oDeci and crinolined skirt. Black silk mitts and white silk mitts and mitts ecru, g:ey pastel tinted are ready to our hands hut the really first hand mitt is of all ever blsek lace to add perfec tion to the frilly old flowered organd ies and muslins so reminiscent of old lavender and Godeys Lady's Book. Now every woman knows that nothing so shows up a hand's imperfections like a mitt. If your nails '3 re not well shaped, your knuckles ired; or knjtty they will be discovered and uncovered in mitts. All the little manicures are already chortling with glee at the nich summer harvest of lady fingers that will now be theirs 3s long as the mitt is destined to wave on the hands of the brave and the fair. Jewellers are. also taking notice for rings will no longer bide their light under a kid skin but will twinkle unrestrained on nude digits.

The old fashioned cameo rings, coral rings ana niur rings are being revived and the whole old fashioned sets of carved, coral, cameos and jet are greatly in demand earrings, broch, locket, ring and bra celets in their quaint and reminiscent entirety. Seed pearl st ts also are fa vorites and old fashioned sots of gold, black enameled, and set with pearls ie exquisite. Too many rings of course spoil the mitt, for it is an ex ponent of the clinging vine or ingenu ous innocence mode of dress. One ring on each paddy is quite all that is permissible to her who is a stickler for good taste and the eternal fitness of things. Hence all the more need fa-: care in its selection, individuality and design.

But take heart, fair lailies who"posSess no jewel hung family tree, the modern jewellers are no pikers when it comes to imitating entiques, so even you may hail with joy tne advent of the mitt.
