Combination Promises to Popular When the Weather Bi Warm for Wraps of Any Kind. 'Gray is the predominating color of the moment. It there is any doubt as to the truth of this sweeping state- ment, writes a New York fashion cor respondent, then visit the smart res- taurants gt any hour of the day. or take a walk up Firth avenue or any other street and note what is seen. There is so much of this shade, indeed, that one stops a moment to wonder Just how long it will last and what the next change In color will be. There are signs pointing toward the lighter shades of tan, for now and then & champagne gown or coat or cape is Seen, and it brings = nice relief from the preponderance of the various tones of gray. Just now if a costume Is not all gray from tip to toe then it seems to take pride in having some touch of gray about it, If it 1s only the feather drooping from the brim of the hat or the shoes of gray worn with a frock that is otherwise quite dark and in conspicuous. Gray, Indeed, has taken its place along with the shades of dark blue and black as being an accepted out-of-doors color as well as a favorite tone for wear within doors. It is good for the young and for the old. In fact, it recognizes no class or dis- tinction as to age or stature. It is the all around good color of the season, and women are making the most of its popularity to use it in every possible way. \ Hat, Shoes, Gloves in Gray, One of. ihe favorite methods of wear- ing-gray when the whole costume is not in tone Is to have,the hat and shoes and gloves of that color, each of them matching each other exactly In tone. Not a few of the gray silk crepe dresses are adorned with fringe; and this is always in the same * tone as the matgrials from which the frock Is fashioned. Gray capes and those of that color combined with one pop- tion of dark blue are among the smart. est that are to be seen upon the workrooms of Jenny in Paris. Its up- per section is made In gray woolly ma. of some thick material in black em- broidered with threads of the gray' drawn through it to form a plaid de- sign.

Season for One-Plecé Dress, The season for the one-piece dress of serge has also arrived. When there Is no cape or outefwrap them the street gown Is of Serge or the suit is of that or some other light méterial, The suits, when they are smartest, are quite plain, with long walst lines apd with straight lines that are neverthes less fitted to follow the .lines of the figure with a delicate nicety. They are worn with trim [little hats and with blouses that, while they are most- ly plain, are still made with quantities of handwork and a sufficient number of frills to make them becoming, The serge dresses are made on the simplest of lines. Really they have the slightest amount of fit and the smallest amount of material to make them notable. But they dre apt to be embroidered in some way or trimmed with little facings or edginge In: the!r rather iso The Midsummer Cape. In some bright color of silk or silk bsaid that gives them that fresh chie Which makes them notable. There are any number of gray dresses made of serge and worn with big black or dark blue hats, and then there are the popu: lar little street dresses, made of a light, say gray, upper section, and a lower section of the black or dark blue, a narrow belt of the darker tone heing used to hold them to a semblance of form about the waist line. Evening dresses have thelr predilec tion for gray, and when It is not ex- actly gray then those tones of mauve and light blue creep In and become that shading between gray and some more vivid color when one is not sure under the" night lights exacfly what the tone may be. There are layers and layers of chiffon about these simple little evening frocks, and sometimes many shades of the same color and combined in such a subtle manner that One is not sure where one tone leaves oft and the other begins. The skirts are made in a succession of frills or In an arrangement of petal formations 0 that they become just soft masses of the becoming material. And as for trimming, there is none, or perhaps fit Is but a band of ribbon about the walet line or a bunch of artificial flowers--just tiny little flowers. The bodices are simply finished by edgings of picoting, and the more often than not there are no sleeves at all. Evening Gewns of Tulle, As always at this time of the year, there are any number of tulle evening gowns to be seen. This season it ig the real silk net, and the colors are the most beautify! that have been seen In a long while.

"You'd be surprised!" , With feelings similar to those of the historic camel at the placing of the last straw, Ainsworth strode to the door and flung it open. "Miss Carter," he enunciated, "will you kindly go downstairs and if there is any girl down there whose tongue is not hung in the middle send her up, if you please. Thank you." That evening Betty, Butler's sister, listened amusedly to Butler's tirade on the gender female. "Oh, Butler," she said, "yon shouldn't generalize. You know I always maintain that every girl, even the primmest, properest one, has a little bit of deviltry in her. Well, quite likely all the slangy, shallow' ones have their speck of sobriety and earnestness--she just didn't show you that side." "Oddly enough it was not the last part of Betty's sentence which stuck in, Butler's mind, but the first. And it was that he recalled the next morning as he watched the girl who had been sent up to replace Susie, Was it poddible that a girl of this type, with such deep gray eyes under level'brows, such a serene mouth, such a steady poise, posséssed any slightest spark of deviliry? Butler found it a positive pleasure to watch her supple, well cared-for, accurate fingérs and ponder what hidden surprises a man who knew her well might discover.

"Jubt to help me celebrate, won't you go out to lunch with me?" The girl, who had been slipping on her gloves, pauged, raised her inscruta- ble eyes to his, seemed to be consider- ing his proposal, then replied in even tones, "No, thank you." A mad desire seized Butler to break down this barrier of reserve. Her eyes, he told himself, were the windows of a soul well worth the knowing, or he was not as adept a judge of women as the author of three successful plays should. be, "Just this once," he pleaded. "Any- where you say, and I wdn't do it again, I am, so glad to get that thing off my mind that I want to go out and throw up my hat and do a snake dance, but you can't do that sort of thing all by yourself" * Per disappointment clouding his face, as she still hesitated, finally od utnyied the gi "All right, I will," she teld him.

That night Butler, sitting cosily op- posite his sister on the other side of the table ig the tiny dining room of the apartment Betty kept for her brother, told of taking his stenog rapher out to lunch. "She's quite a girl--has depths," he added. "What's her name?" asked Betty absent-mindedly, thinking that next time she would either put more gels. | tin or less water in the dessert of jel- Hed fruit. _ "She's a Miss Lane," replied Butler.

But Peggy hadn't answered. Was she going to frame a gentle refusal?" "Come, dear". he urged, anxiety quite evident in his tone. "What would you say?" Peggy grew very sober.
