Interesting Hosiery.

Black and white and black clocks on white and vice versa, checks, solid and lined, stripes, plaids, polka dots, brilliant and subdued colors, embroidery effects in one to three colors of floral and other designs, are all seen. A novelty has a solid white leg and white horizontal stripes on the black foot. Two-toned hose have top and foot in contrast with clocking like the upper part. White is combined with Dutch and Belgian blue, pink and purple. Beige is also combined with brilliant shades. A novelty in silk hose has lace insets, with the designs emphasized by crystal beads. A bootee pattern has imitation buttons and gilt braid buttonholes up the ankle, to imitate a button boot, which is to be worn with pumps.
