Mrs. George Kennan Is the possessor
OF a genuine Russian icon. The Russian
craze was epidemic In unusually severe
form last winter, and there is only one
thing, the budding passion for lbsen
and things Morse, which can this
winter disturb its continued rule. The
fur dealers are importing Russian skins,
and modistes are getting ready 70 make
much of Russian gowns. The modern
young woman thinks ner den incom-
plete without an icon. but As there are
not for sale in this country a dozen Of
these images which ever saw the land
of the Gar II -aay be guessed that Mrs.
Kennan's spec men. which the explorer
of Siberian prisons picked up at the
Mini Novgorod fair. has better
authenticated history than most before
which prie-cieus are placed and brass
lamps kept burning. Some hard
wood presumably oak. is the material,
but like all Russian work IL Is covered
so profusely with white paint and gild-
ing as 10 make close examination next

OF some saint of the Greek church and
the figure has brawny chest and
shoulders which fall of into an inoeter-
inmate block, the arms, hands and all
but the upper part of the body being
represented with a rude convention

Yellow and heliotrope are the fsvorite
colors for dinner and lunch decorations.
At pretty breakfast some DAYS since
the two were combined. Pongee silk.
of heliotrope tint bordering on violet,
was puckered about a yellow bowl filed
with yellow and dnil yellowish-red
chrysenthemums. Six silver candle
sticks were placed at intervals, and
these had shades OF yellow linen with
silk fringe. At each plate were laid
yellow chrysanthemums tied with hello
trope ribbons. Z. p. Il
