Sandals For Frocks Of Ancient Type
WHITE PUMPS DYE EASILY TO ANY SHADE
The sophisticated dress requires Ja sophisticated shoe, and this sum- mer the acme of sephistication is the open-toed, flat heeled sandal However, many women find a low heel unflattering and it seems logi- leal to confine its use to frocks! whose style is Greek, or Hinâu, or Persian
It is a well-known fact that it you are feeling fit and well and are satisfied that you look nice, you will be happy and charming to all with whom you come in contact.

These two types are equally formal The low-heeled sandal is made of draped Paisley silk with a black ground patterned in blue, rose, yellow and green; the L-strap sandal is made of crepe and trim- med with squares alternately open and solid, and with pipings of kid-! skin that may be either silver or gold according to choice.
Much more extreme types of the Oriental sandal are seen in refined company, whatever one's personal judgment may be regarding their tastefulness- For example, there jare those consisting merely of a sole, to which a fat heel is some- times added and sometimes no heel at all, and which is held on the foot by narrow crisscross straps over the instep and a strap around the ankle. This design leaves the foot practically bare. The pattern is copied from antiquity and is said to promote a beautiful car- riage.

The appearance of the hair is al vital factor,
It should be well brushed with spotlessly clean brushes as a regu- lar babit. Hair wavers can be worn at night, which will ensure a dainty crop of curls and ringlets by day
To protect the curls while one is bathing there are now special. curlers very cleverly designed with
