been a rage for what may be termed
linner-table bric-a-brac. 1t is probable
that Mrs George w. Childs has the
finest table decorations in Philadelphia.
She has great many very choice things,
such as large platteaux, carved vases,
candelabra and gold ornaments for the

can be procured in Europe. She is said
to have one of the finest collections of
dinner plates in the country-Sevres,

gem. Many of her plates have cost
several hundred dollars a dozen. She
gives orders to people of experience to
be on the lookout for very rare speci-

twenty persons Mrs. Childs can, with
