Fashionable Footwear. Even in the midst of winter shoei are preferred to boots this season, and all are very fanciful, with many stirapi that cover the foot but little. Black footwear lias come into another season in Paris, black being worn for practically every day occasion, and when in doubt evening also. Black patent leather for the day time eandal, suede or satin for more dreesy wear, and lustrous satin with steal er jot buokles are de rigueur. BfocmUM metal cloths and gold and silver are also correct. of the sandal models have elastic insets. Single and double straps and intricate patterns add greater cost and exclusiveness t© winter models. The more dressy typea: have Louis or Spanish heels; those for less formal wear from Cuban tn “baby” height. Toes a,re slightly rounded, and the tendency is to stress the lower heel and the rounded toe. 1 Some brown shoes in suedo and satin are given a place because of the popularity of the colour for dresses.—'Elite Styles.’ |: The craze for highly.coJoured, gailypatterned and fancifully-shaped evening shoes seem to be giving- place to a liking for the long, slender court variety, harmonising with or matching the toilette. A far quieter tbno in footwear is noticeable.—“ The Queen.” EGARDING fashions fabJhmb ■ rics, the following M K gleanings from two continents are ct inter, feat.

The rAgues models are poised very low on the head, entirely concealing the bobbed nr shingled hair. —“Vanity Fair.’’
