THE 1930 STYLE OF
BEAUTY.
It seems absurd that what we -consider beautiful in 4 Woman should vary from one season to another. But so it is. Even the Botticelli Vénus went through a long period of obscurity and neglect when Raphael's madonnas were the vogue!

FOR THE SEASIDE.
For the seaside, the outfit is gorgeous swimming suit, sun-bath- ing dress, beach hat, bag and shoes complete. The swimming suit may not change much. Only in mate rial, colour and flat decorations can it differ one season from another.
In fine jersey, specially prepared satin, crepe, silk or wool, it may be made in all colours.
ROUND THE SHOPS.
is
Lane, Crawford's. In the ladies' department some very nice lingerie being shown this week. There are pyjamas and night gowns of crêpe de chine finely hand-em- broidered and edged with deru valencine lace or net and petticoats of crêpe de chine, heavy silk and satin, richly embroidered in a number of new designs. All these delightful undies are all beautifully light and flimsy and just the thing to went with the latest summer dresses..
For the kiddies this week, Lane,. Crawford's are having a special sale of shoes and socks. The shoes are all of standard makes and are being: offered at really very moderate prices. The socks, especially those of cotton and silk mixture, are very attractive.
Whiteaway's are showing a very full selection of the celebrated Pyrex oven-ware. These hygienic cooking utensils can be used for cooking all kinds of appetising dishes-from stews to pies. It is said that you do not realize how good a pie can be till it is cooked in a Pyrex Pie Plate. In the furnishing department I was very much taken with some of the new Simmons beds; these tre very strongly made and are in very at- tractive designs. In the ladies' de- partment I noticed some lovely "Vistra" vests; these are made of very fine ribbed silk with crochet- ed shoulder straps. Children's sizes are 90 cents and ladies' $1.50. Look out for bargains at this shop next week when they start their Summer sale.
Maison Marnac. Some of the very latest hats from Paris have. arrived this week for this salon, ia fancy lacquered "and - linen strawa, crinolines and Bangkoks. A large floppy hat in fancy straw edged with crinoline looked very charming; it would be ideal with the long full dresses in which this dress designer specializes." White is seen quite a lot this Summer and I noticed an unusual frock in white radium silk which looked-really ex quisite with its side flares applied in geometric outlines extending into panels to the edge of the skirt. Another dress in white had tiny scalloped frills on the waist and neck.
Delly Vardon. If you want value for your money these hard times you will get it at Dolly Vardons, whose the July sale is still going strong. Hats which were priced at 915 last month are going for $5 and those valued at 823 are being offer- ed at from 210' to 812. There is also a big variety of American washing dresses which have all been greatly reduced. These are in voiles, organdies, muslins and gay prints, many of them with the new! lingerie touches of pastel-coloured frills and bows.
Felix have a fine selection of very "fetching styles in morning, afternoon and evening frocks in bright prints, muslin, organdie, silk, crepe de chine and satin, and all arp offered at very attractive sale prices. A morning frock of voile in a large design of red, black, and yellow flowers caught my eye and I was surprised to find it priced at only $10. There are also some. rather nice three-piece suite in crêpe de chine marked at $30-really good value, I consider.
