handsome hair ornaments are allowable,
gold set with precious stones being by far
the most popular.
The dainty new creations in head gear are
a positive boon to the female community.
IT'S hard enough to wear heavily laden
b0nneS and hats in winter time, but We are
not willing 10 burden ourselves with more
than is necessary in the heat of summer.
Consequently, the tiny bonnets, consisting
oftimes OF mere spray OF flowers and bow
OF ribbons, are sure to find innumerable adj
vocates. Leghorn hats decorated with tut.a
and small bunch of fntS g q ~ riSSo hS c con,
time to be in dems nd at the SeaShore. Ihe
more Sc1 giupeDl1 shade or garden hat is pretnly
trimmed with gay ribbons, gauze materials
of all descriptions and of course some flow
ers. The craze for artificial floral decora-
tons was rarely surpassed than at the pres
ent season. They are even worn on Slip
perS.
Finger-rings have large field for display
during this season, when the hands are less
covered and silk mittens being worn in pref
erence to gloves. The latest devices are the
feur-de-iys pattern admitting the combining
OF three precious stones, and avery beautiful
one lately admired had remarkably fine
sapphire, diamond and black pearl set
together The black pearl, by the way, is
next to tile ruby in value, though not so
generally admired by the fair sex. 4 unique
setting is the crossing of tie stones, dia-
mOnds and pearls, or sapphires or rubies,
and the tiny briliiants inlaid in the band
half way to either side. Large turquOiseS
and Opals surrounded with diamonds are as
beautiful as ever and look well on the finger
of some rich old doWager. 1t matters not
how wealthy young girl is, let her confne
herself to few choice rings, allowing the
mother and chaperone to bedeck her hands
ad libitum if she chooses, though too great a
display of ones valuabIes is unbecoming in
any one. There is plenty of time for people
to see ones jewelry at hotel in the outing
season.
Keep something in reserve and astonis h
the guests at the end Of your visit. A per-
feet beauty of Il necklace worn by wei l.
known society belle at Newport was COM
posed of flexible gold links, from which
hung knife-edge pieces, having clear, pure
diamonds attached to each one that shOne
like a drop of water ON the fair white skin of
the wearer. This same happy creature had
her hair dressed high, and nesting among
her golden tresses was brilliant star COM
posed OF magnificent stones, whose red and
blue lights might have oean seen in any part
of the room as the young lady acknnW ledqed
bow here and there In her charming
graceful manner. Diamond epaulets on the
shoulders confining hnOts of ribbon are
pretty. and, as usual, whenever there's Il
question of costly gems, are admired 10 the
fullest extent.
Red is popular color this season, with its
innumerable shades blending tremendously
with most any tint and forming charming,
effective background for the garlands Of
flowers worh In such Eprofusion by our
maidens fair, this summer. The decided
scarlet, the rich warm crimson, and all TIE
brilliant shades Of magenta, are among tie
many hues that come under the head OF this
fashionable color. There are so many tntS
to choose from that either blondes
or brunettes may safely array them
selves in accordance with their complex
ions and be in style TIE growing fad Of
wearing the skirts plain in front and pulled
toward the back, brings those graceful flow
er-stIewn light materials into great demand.
They look prettier than plain goods in this
makeup = nothing could be more pic
turesque than to see our girls dressed like
their Observation-Disclosures were prone to in
former days. The immense hats, covered
with flowing pluines, ribbons. laces, etc,
the old-fasIIiOned sleeves and odd waists
the round ard plain skirts and last but not
least the lorguette handled gracefully, re-
call the days of our ancestors.
Quite a dainty coffee-set, particularly ad-
mired not many days ago, seems worthy OF
mention. The salyer is OF silver, finished
as are also the cOffee-pOt milk-ptcher and
bowl, the handle on the coffee-pot being a
japanese one, as any silver receptacle
always becomes so thoroughly heated when
a hot fluid is placed in it that it is almost i'm
possible TO lift it, so the innovation of the
wicker handle Is fortunate one. The tiny
cups and still smaller saucers are of
fancy blue china and make the cutest
kind of showing. To drink the pure
amber beverage from out such fairy articles
was bliss indeed. And what difference
it does make whether we drink from out
fine china or glassware. eat off delicate,
costly plates, with the choicest of cutlery,
in fact, whether all the table appointments
are in keeping one with the other. For
tunately people are being educated UP to
this mos. necessary study of table accesso-

it Is to having everything suitable, though
not consequently elegant. Cleanliness lie
