There are always inno which tug at the wary purse-strings, <ven though the shopper may already vossess. similar articles, for there is. about them, the the lure of the new “dernier eri” of temptation of the ©ld Dame Fashion. Some {teresting fancies to vlete the “toilette du bal” which were receatly seen included hand- bags, fans, scarfs and headbands, all different from those featured last year. One dazzling Dag was com. nosed of strings of rhinestones and emeralds woven together over lining of shimmering. shell-pink sitk. The opening was shirred on a slen- | der bracelet, also studded with jew- els, while the opposite end was fin- fshed with an exquisite tassel of gold A\ beautiful vamfty case was of in- com- tricate gold filigree, oval-shaped.

The one sketched consisted of sev- cral narrow strands of gold braid perimposed one on the other, with deep pink rosebuds dotted around them at equal intervals, The fans displayed were either ot lace or gossamer-fine net, and a daz- zling touch was added in the form of sequin _embroldery. One fan was of sparkling eold shadow lace, with a gorgeous pheasant of gold sequins Gorgeous evening clonk ., of shirred sold cloth, fur collared. poised_as if for flight on the bright somi-cireular buckground.
