Lane, Crawford. In the Ladica' Salon some extremely smart rain- conta are seen this week. The latest: models are the very essence - of. smartness and combine waterproof efficiency with fashionable style. One very attractive model was in beige waterproof satin with facings in brown, the lightness of which makes it ideal for the very hot wen ther we have been having. Artifical silk is used for other models, there, being quite a number of popular colours, including several shades of red, green, blue and brown. For
those who prefer n heavier form of waterproof, there is one in wool and cotton in brown with yellow facings. Other models are on the style of the Burberry, with double lining. in a plaid design are seen in full,' half and hip lengths.
To go with these very charming raincoata Lane, Crawford's have always in stock the latest acces. zories, viz., umbrellas in matching colours, "Gaytecs" fitted with zip- fasteners and goldthes which fit into a rubber bag, and take up very little space in one's handbag when not required.

Gordon's.-To-morrow is the last One of day of the sale, at this home of stylish footwear. Beside the dis- count of 13 or 25 per cent on all models, there are special lines at 810, $12.50, 815 and $25, among which are evening shoes in coloured or black satin in the one strap and court styles. Some afternoon, shoes in beige trimmed with lizard are particularly attractive.
The new shoes which Gordon's have just imported, and which are included in the sale, are all of the simplest styles; so while our gowns are often more elaborate our feet still follow the classic path of sim plicity and two kinds of materials nre very often used." Natural linen, for instance is used with strappings in brown leather. Shantung in trimmed with zard, white lizard with dark blue lizard and Panama straw with beige leather. Now that reptile skins are successfully dyed in all manner of bright, shades, at tractive combinations of these and. more conventional Icathers have beer achieved. Plaited shoes appear with great success, and, while they were once frivolous accessories only suitable for seaside wear, they are now counted among the best styles for town use.
