Show 4 RINGS q ON N HER TOES gotham girls ornament them feet with jewele in an old nursery rhyme then was a lady who cultivated what then seemed the remarkable habits of wearing rings on an her fler angers and bells on her toes her descendant the society woman of today has in reversing the old arrangement inaugurated a still more rem remarkable ae habit says the new york world M many of the rings which the modern woman wears do actually have bells on them and as forbearing for wearing rings on her hep tom toes that Is now anes an established custom toe rings are not yet visible in the jewelers windows because they are as yet made only tp to fill special orders but it if the fashion is followed up as it la is likely to be they will soon be as plentiful as bracelets or silver hatulas hat pins plas there are as it will be surmised a great many occasions on which the toe ring cannot be worn it is not worn iq in daytime under a shoe nor in the evening under a slipper but there are times when it is allowed to shine forth in all its glory and one of these times is when its owner is taking a turkish bath the pride and delight which society women take in their prettily shaped exquisitely cared for feet possibly in most cases dates to only a short time ago but it is certain that since at present a beautiful toot is more valuable than ever before and any device calling attention to its attractiveness tr is most carefully cultivated A toe ring serves just this purpose now when the woman of many fads joins a turkish bath party she does not under an impulse of mistaken modesty conceal her feet from view she rather allows them to be as conspicuous as the conditions will allow while her friends are encouraged cou raged to admire openly their whiteness and slenderness As a mark of extreme novelty she now places on each big toe a ring which does not differ at all except in iii size from the ones she wears on her fingers it may be b of plain gold or it may be made brilliant with jewels there are no restrictions strict ions as to its character but grotesque as the idea appears at first thought a pretty ring is unquestionably an ornament a to a retty pretty toot foot and the women who are brought to realize this will doubtless hasten to imitate the example which has been set them |
