SLENDERIZING STOCKING IS NEWEST THING Paris Creates 'Shaded' Effect to Make Ankles Look Thinner By ALICE LANGELIER Paris- The "slenderizing stoclo ing' is the very newest thing in leg covering which has appeared 1 Paris, trying to satisfy the ambition of every woman to display 8 neat ankle. The stocking la a masterpiece of shadow effect, painted so that, the shadow concentrates finely region of the ankles, the fading away effects being to delineato a tapering contour. The desired result, as tar as appearance goes, and after all what else matters, is thus pros duced without special diets and strenuous exercises.

Stockings are something that are so much in evidence now, with the hem-line 80 brief, that they are about the most important part of madame's wardrobo. Gradually usurping the realm over which beige has ruled for 80 long. gun-metal is slowly creeping into vogue for hosiery. Even a few smart women are seen with all black stockings which are very chic and "slimming." A very dark belge without a touch of rose in it is one that many women choose for it 1s much more distinguished than the banal light beige which has been worn for SO long. Many are wearing these dark beige with every kind of costume from morning til night.

Other women still prefer those lovely Eres pink hose for eve. ning, for they may be worn with any frock and any kind of evening slip. pers. A bright sunburn beige is another new tone much in favor for evening. The thing to avoid in selecting stockings for winter-to-spring wear is the pale nude tones which do not -look well with heavy wear.

Gunmetal and taupe are to be preferred and certain shades of mauve-grey which even looks well with evening frocks. They are very smart for instance with the new black satin slippers having an original decoration of little painted flowers which look exactly like enamel and add just the right touch of gay color. 3 When I was a little girl I lived on the edge, the shore of a prairie that stretched like a rolling green and purple sea to the foot of a 200-mile-long rampart of the Rocky Mountains. From our front garden, bursting with poppies, yellow roses and silver leaf maples- every westerner knows them--I could look down a billowy green valley and down on a ranchhouse that stood in it like a toy. Across its face ran a long rail and baluster magically detailed in that crystal air through which you can see the blue shadows in the canons of Pike's Peak some 80 miles away.

And every day for a few years there walked on this veranda, up and down, from the south end to the rail at the north and back again -and again the other way, up and down, hour after hour, the figure old man. Like a tiny, model figure of a sailor man. His back, beard was white, and his hair. He held his hands folded behind his back. He wore a dark coat and a dark blue cap, and his white beard blew in the prairie like the spume from an ocean wave.

He blind was a Nova Scotia -a sea captain! Forty years on the sea, the last 20 of them skippering his own ship from Nova Scotia to the West Indies. sea captain on the prairies! And now he had retired, well off, to live the rest of his life with his daughter and his gran'children, who had made the far cry from Nova Scotia to the prairies of Colorado and come to nest at last a half a continent away from the sea! For a or two he walked--and then one day he was gone. 'HOMESICKNESS. For ships and the ocean. The old sea captain had gone back to the Atlantic.

We never saw the old man in the blue jacket and cap or his white beard blowing in the wind again; nor, either, did the daughter and gran'children in the ranch house. For he was very old and he died at sea. Well, those who leave the prairie sea for the big blue one of profound, deep waters are homesick, too. There are prairie girls- exactly "cow girls," either--wedded to the big city that is called the Port of New York, and wedded to a successful man of the city, who suddenly smell pine trees, hear magpies and larks, feel the prairie wind on their cheek, see the red mesa and the silvery sage brush and wish themselves violently where those things are when he plays certain music. And HE doesn't know it at all.

I have often thought that if married people understood better that each of them must have, and indulge in, their particular little homesicknesses for the things they did or the places they knew before they were married, how much happier they could make each other. If a man loves a boat, the water's edge, and never gets to ease the homesickness for them, some of him will die inside. If a woman is crazy about horses and hills, or a tiny rose garden or the big prairie, whatever it is, and never leaves an apartment and the stone pavement, she will change inside no matter how durable her outside looks. Help the other fellow ease his homesickness and he will love you twice as much. -NELL BRINKLEY.

Advice to the Lovelorn By BEATRICE FAIRFAX Dear Miss Fairfax: A question has been puzzling me for some time and I have come to you for the answer. A certain friend of mine is giv. ing a birthday party, to which I am invited. She has also invited a friend with whom I would like to correspond because I very seldom see him. The only time we meet is at a party or gathering.

I like this young man and wish to keep up the friendship. I am always, greeted cordially whenever he meets me and I always return the greeting. I think our friendly feeling is mutual. At this party would it be proper for me to ask him whether 1 he would care to write to me? Or would this be out of the way? DOTTIE DEAR. Let him take the initiative, Dottie Dear, when it comes the question of correspondence.

Possibly, he may not care about corresponding with you, so your asking him to write might put him in an embarrassing position. Why do you not invite him call at your home if you wish to encourage his friendship? It is a young woman's privilege to extend this invitation to men she knows and likes and some young men wait for such an invitation before calling. Dear Miss Fairfax: I am keeping company with a certain young lady and intend to marry her. Should I ask the consent of her parents to our engagement before asking her to marry me? WONDERING.
