NEW STYLES OF FOOTWEAR

According to Rumor There Are to Be Many Changes in the Vogue ’ Next Spring. As an indication of the styles of footwear that will be In vogue next spring In Great Britain it may be remarked that ladies’ low shoes will be manufactured without a fastening; and whereas at the present time the whole sole is black, the upper parts will be colored and the lower parts remain black as before, with the exception of the heels, which will be made of wood covered with tinsel, celluloid or canvas and colored attractively, which coloring need not coincide or blend with the lipper part of the shoe, but may appear as a bright colored contrast. \ A demand has arisen, and it is stated to be increasing, for shoes to match the dress. This is naturally favored by shoe manufacturers, as it involves additional purchases. Soft suede and glace kids, dyed heliotrope, cerise, blue and other shades, are expected to form exceedingly fashionable wear in the Coining spring and summer months. '
