THE EFFECT OF HOBBLE SKIRTS.
{{BY GEORGE EDGAR ÎN_THE “DAILY' MAIL"]
After careful observation of the way the English woman, trips down Knightsbridge or Oxford street on shopping intent, I have come to the conclusion that the hobble skirt has worked a allent revolution.
There used to be a time when the travelling |- Frenchman came to England with pony neto- book and a cheaper pencil and, after shrugging his shoulders until be made the back of his suit look like crépon, devoted the rest of his time to es Tx 167 sellers jotting down rude things about the English woman. He said she was dowdy. Porlaps he visions in his mind's eye of the trimly garbed little women he had left behind him; the tight little branette who, piquant and wholly ador- able, havo tripped as many yeary, over eo daintily, through the mors fascinating streets of the most fascinating city in the world, And side by side with this delightful recollection bis warped mind bade him see our English women through the conventional, eyes of the Parisiau caricaturist

It must be admitted that the French person with the ernst poncil had a somewhat intrigeons view of the British fomale-ho had not seet her as n Sufragette maroling on to Albert Hall, and marching "as to war." The typ he drew was an unbecoming person with a rabbit mouth. The characteristic of the rabbit mouth, which can be developed in any counter is the quaint tendency of nature to anticipate the artist by foreshortening the forelin, without waiting for the need of taald to repralag- knowledge of perspectivə tion: The result of such an arbitrary, fore shortening is that the canine teeth gleam like twin tombstones in an otherwise deserted come- tery. The English woman of that epoch, accord- ing to the Parisian critio, dressed her hair bun fashion at forward, as if her face were a cou fectioner's shop window in which all the buns had to be leaped towards the front. On this she pitched a hint of the Mary Jane variety, which tried to outbalge the bun. And this was not the worst that happened to the English women in France. She wore tweeds, Harris tweeds, with tails to her jackets, and her skirts, inchos too short, showed bouts with hobnails in them..
CONDEMNED BECAUSE OF BOOTS. Those boots the Frenchman saw ware" cruel boots with "boots, mujusk boots. They Lobunils in then, and boots with bobnails in them look big, even if they are little The woman with the rabbit mouth always wore big bob boats with big nails in them. In Fronsh drawings of English women they still loomas largos Noale's elephants must have done wher on a certain fiue morning they ambled out of the ark two by two. As a matter of fact, we never bad a type of women in that type of boot, but our women's boots were laid enough in all cou- science, and

A VISION OF SHOES.
To-day the English woman does not wear hebGailed boots or bentant all. She wears shoes, and pretty shoes, chio enough to twinkle piquantly on the boulevards of the Freno capi. al If you doubt my word, start at Loicoster square and travel through Regent-street to the Marble Arch, collecting boot impressions. You
will find
your boot impressione are all dancing little titbits of colour, and that the sapo if an impression over had shape-follows the model of the shoe. You will find those shoes are no longer made of leather-or, at least, black leather. They affect all the colours of a rain- bow perfectly arching itself to its utmost. You will and them pink or salmon coloured, white. topped, rad strapped, yellow-buttoned, and if you do not find them exactly that way, you will And them any colour you want to set, body, tops, straps, or buttons, even to the hue that pre railed when our forefathers affected gamboge appora. Not a hob shape in the lot, nor a unil in the sole, but shapely, in every gulor pensibl to tender sade the sort of lootwane through The woodlands, if they ever danced at all.
THE CHARM OF BUCKLES.
Also they have buckles, and when yon sée a boot with a buckle, feminino shoo without ond is a grim monstrosity, meet only for a Parisian caricature. The buckle is a pretty thing. It shines in the san, catches up the light and gives it back, as stars take up the light of hearen sail wink it like laughter through the skies, A buckle--why, a buckled shoe is better than o silver-gilt spar on the food of
a scarlet-chud man-at-arine. Where the spar rings a martial, big-booted laughter, the buckle is the dimpling smile a precession of half-dancing shoes, They ago trip-trip-tripping down Piscadilly, as you may see them for yourself on any On of these days of Jaly. And even as they trip they trump upon the band from Paris which drow our English women once, and maybe, oven, does to day, so booted as if she considered at noross the blessed olty a greater adventure than nelinib across the Himalayne.
