want to keep right on living there through the winter also. There were fewer jackets seen worn with dresses at the first week of the Paris exposition than were being worn at this time of the year last summer. Perfect little gifts for friends leaving on a trip will be found at the Lantern Shop, 983 Main street; there are stunning grossgrain cosmetic bags, lined with fine rubber and closed with zippers (they would make grand tobacco pouches as well), rubber lined kits with facecloths inside. "Stencils," novelty stationery and delightful Devon violet sachets and soaps, also a choice selection of Bon Voyage cards to go with them. One clever Paris designer makes beach shoes of a neutral shade and trims them with detachable ribbons so that the colors may be changed by the wearer at will, making the shoes harmonize with; any costume.

One reason why there are such superb values In reduced things at Phoebe Foster's shop, 1017 Farmington Avenue, is that, since this shop is closing in a few weeks for the summer, all daytime and evening apparel has been marked down much more than it otherwise would be. In the collection are some really elegant travel clothes (including a number of size 38's) at unbe-lieveably low prices. Always store your jellies and jams in a cool, dark, dry place. Among the interesting and timely sale values we noticed when at Guy's on Pratt Street, yesterday were some suits in medium weights and dressmaker styles ideal for those traveling to cooler climates. The other reduced item I have singled out is a group of very handsome dressy chiffon and summery afternoon and informal frocks ideai for hotel and party wear.
