preparatory fer Easter. The windows are
decked with fresh-laid novelties of egg shape
or at least of egg outline. The latest is the
Easter pin-cushion, oval in shape, covered
with bright satin and corner of bright bro
cade or plush. Oval shields covered in gar
net or peacock satin, with Japanese orna-
ment, are for photograph stands or
memorandum. The little satin egg
cosies drawn up round a downy yellow
chick peeping out of his nest are for no other
earthly use one can discover but to look
pretty. Eggs of ivory and ivorine answer
for thimble cases or hold string of garnet
beads, skein of geld thread or such choice
trife. The Kioto eggs are pocket bonbon-
Rieres, just large enough to carry a suth-
cheney of cardamoms or crystallized violet
leaves for morning. Real birds eggs, soft
blue or pale brown, with freckled ends, are
grouped on nests of finest carded cotton that
really looks the same material that clouds
are made of, but it havdly compliments a
friends taste or sensibility to present such
an Easter gift at cost of the pain of some
suffering bird. The artificial eggs of COM
position-celluloid and tinted alabaster-are
delicate as nature and less fragile as well as
more humane in sentiment
