"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. A single odd ring, orU
ginal and unique of design and denot

most to be desired. 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. Avt jewellers 'are consu-

STYLE SHOW NIAISED
La Grande Merchant Brings Home
Some Hints For Fashion Fans
"Nothing to wear but clothe ," so
said the clever folks who staged the
recent Chicago Style Show and Mac
Wood, of the Golden Rule, substanti
ates it in this interesting story of the
modes in women's Spring apparel, us
he snw them in his buying trip to
market.
I 'The now season's styles are most
alluring, with their puffs, panniers and
billowy draperies. Variety is ? grem
as to offer a Woman almost unlimited
opportunity to exercise her individual
ity. Skirts are wide many volumin
ous 'but most graceful and artistic.
Sleeves are trimmed and puffed niu
the curve of waist and bloom is em
phasized and exaggerated by close fit
ting bodices.
Spring suits have a tendency toward
dressy lines. Jackets are shoit and
a few boleros are shown. Some of the
new models have more fitted forms,
while others are very loose and flaring,
suggesting capes.. The majority of
these are made single-breasted, al
though some are double breasted with
novelty belts and jackets.
Separate coats are semifitted or
loose and flowing. Most models have
new shaped belts, Novelty jackets and
sleeves and smart new collars are fas
einatinir features.
After many years of disuse, capeif
have come into their own again turn
both capes and cape collars art' used,
alike on suits and coats.
Customers charmingly combine the
joyful spirit of youth and spring in
full, free flowing skirts, close fitting
bodices, and a great variety of new and
diiintv trimming modes.
Separate -Skirts are destined, to great
popularity. Taking youthfulness
for their keynote, tho now models arc
short and very full. Many are trim
med with bias bands of silk or self
material.
Waists Bright colors and sheer
fabrics are important notes. Frills
are in strong favor. There are many
sport waists in novel styles as well
as Iiussiin Blouse effects.
Spring millinery presents many new
and novel ideas. Small high shapes
various types of flat and high crowned
sailors, novelty straws and rich color
ings comprise the leading notes for
trimmings, ribbons, floral novelties,
wings and fancy pins are foremost.
Lisore braids and Milan hemps are
given first places, while many hnir
hats are shown in pastel shades for
dress . wear. Sport hats of various
types will be popular for general
wear.

lose with Roosevelt and the Democrats
with Wilson. But what would happen
if they were the two candidates?
