To cheese the right tone for the stockings to go with ohe's dress is by no means a difficult task nowadays, for in the great variety of colors almost any tone can be harmonized. A striking novelty in hosiery here in London is seen in- the shaded stocking. With a black satin shoe, decorated with a diamente jewel, a pair of shaded stockings, shading from off-white to steel, looks most effective, the light color running up the front of the leg and merging in the lark color at the back. These worn with a black lace dress mounted on white chiffon would be very chic. Belts are often made to correspond with the color and design of the popular half-square shoulder kerchief.

Beach shoes may be had in bright-colored rubber with heels about an inch high, the holiday gayety being expressed in such tones as cherry-red and china-blue. Another novelty, one that will be interesting to gardeners, is the bright sudede-leather gloves made of stout skins dyed a variety of strong colors. Many of these gloves are thonged with leather in contrasting shades; fcr instance, a vivid green pair is thonged with yellow and a mauve pair with currant red.
