I ONDON's newest handbag is square, about six inches in height, depth, and width. It is of black calf, with a flat handle across the top. AnothOl notion in handbags is a "calf cottage with a suedo roof." The "root" of the .bag has little tabs on either side so that both sides may be opened. A good alliance combines shiny and matt surfaced material, and the effective contrast is heightened if two colours are used —black flat crepe, for instance, for an evening frock, with lipstick red satin for the short jacket. Two silk pom-poms in a contrasting colour to the frock look effective when placed on the shoulder of a draped cape and at the waistline of a matching, frock of pastel-toned satin. Ruch trimmings and fluted brims are seen on many of the new millinery styles. Pleatings of felt can be used Io advantage as decoration, and ribbon rutthiiigs ro introduce colour are effective. SHiiaparelli's new prints are patterned in all manner of animated dosigns and crazy patches, called "Love letters," "stamps," "seals," and "Jack - and : the - Beanstalk" flowor effects. Old colours have new names; brown is "spice"; red is "rouge orientale": oyster is "helium," and violet if "Russian lilac." Sr-hiaparelli sponsors a new deep rich red in worsted and plaid silk called "rebellion." BTRMA--MON EY-BACK RII EUMATIC REMEDY.
