FEATURES. Openwork Shoes There is nothing really new about openwork shoes. They are literally as old as Egypt, and Cleopatra undoubt- edly wore sandals that made use of this idea. Still we regard the open- work slipper or pump as something of_a novelty. Here is once when the cause of cemfort has heen served without pro- [ARY MARSHALL.

Black patent leather openwork slip- pers appear, and these may be worn for street wear if you like, but be sure that you choose to go with them black stockings—very sheer black stockings of tre sort that so many | well dressed French women are wea ing. Of course, flesh-colored stock- ings continue In’ favor in many quar- ters, but well dressed women both here and abroad are showing that they are willing to wear something else for the sake of variety.

In fact, with these brown shoes the shoe dealer usually offers number of stockings of just the right tone. Of course, the stockings go down on the bill, but one thanks the courteous salésman for his thoughtfulness in providing the stockings. (Copyright, 1 HOW IT STARTED BY JEA WTON. Pin Money.

But there was a time when court ladies were considered fortunate to be able to buy them. The expression and the custom of supplying women with an allowance for fancies comes down to us from the time when pins were so expensive that only the wealthiest women could afford them ‘or a long time after the invention of pins, in the fourteenth century, it was not extraordinary for women to be endowed at their mariage with a sum of money for the purchase of pins. At one time a law was passed in England permitting the maker of pins to sell them only on January 1 and 2. Then the wealthy city ladies flocked to the shops provided with “pin money." The early pins were of two parts- the stem and the head of wound wire soldered to it. Though our marvelous turing methods have pin industry so that the product now turned out by the milion and several hundred can be bought for a few cents, pin money still survives. May the scorn implied by the oft used expression.

This failing can be checked, if not completely eradi- cated, by strict discipline during early childhood, as, in this instance, force and determination will make a greater than love g Just because the outbreaks of this self-willed child, in its infancy, may appear cute, it must not, if uny serious attempt be made at charac ter formation, be encouraged or ap- plauded by over-fond parents, but discouraged and punished.
