Numbered with the latest arrivals are
the Mexican filigree spoons, a decided con-
trast to other styles. The delicate fligree
work of the modern Mexican jeweler is
composed of fine gold and silver wires,
wrought in designs generally copied from
nature and representing flowers, birds. but
terfiies, etc. The uniqueness of the de-
signs, the rich colors of the original
metals preserved in the work, and with
al the intrinsic value of the articles
made of this material render them
highly attractive and adapted for pres
entation as souvenirs to meet the de-
mard for souvenirs in way of spoons.
Many designs and styles Of filigree handle
spoons have been produced, two of which
are shown in the cut here reproduced from
The Jewellers Circular. In some cases
these spoons are rendered local by an appli-
cation of the name of the town over the
filigree

A LuxurfoSs Shoulder Pillow, Pretty
Draperies, Table Centers, Etc,
Among new home luxuries are the
shoulder pillows, which give comfort, COM
bined with bit Of decoration, to a high,
hard backed chair. The pillows are made
eight to ten inches wide and twelve to fif-
teen in length, according to the size of the
chair on which they are to be used The
material may be printed silk, china silk,
plush or velvet, embroidered or plain
Silkoline is one of the prettiest of inexpen-
sive materials. These pillows are used in
pairs by setting small gilt rings in the
edges and lacing them together with rib
bons.
The washable cretonnes make good bed
draperies and spreads. Colored Marseilles
in lovely tints is comparatively inexpen-
sive and furnishes very attractive bed
spreads
The prevailing fashion Of dresses with no
convenient pocket gives value to oddly
shaped little bags for carrying the hand
kerchief, which may be attached to the belt
or hung from the arm.

Rules for Good Eyesfeht.

The following simple rules for the pres
ervation OF the eyesight are worth remem-
bering: Keep shade on your lamp or gas
burner. Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness. Never begin to read,
write or sew for several minutes after COM
ing from darkness into light. Never read
by twilight, moonlight or any light so
scant that it requires an effort to discrimi-
late.
Never read or sew directly in front of the
light, window or door. II is best to let the
lightfail from above. obliquely over the
left shoulder. Never sleep so that on first
awakening the eyes shall open on the light
OF window. The moment you are in
stinctively prompted to rub your eyes that
moment stop using them.-Exchange.

Fashions in Jewelry.

Elsie Bee notes the following in jewelers.
Circular:
Rings of repousse silver in which dia-
mond is sunk are intended for men.
A charming necklace is of graded pieces
of pale pink coral set between diamonds.
The msrquise ring commands all styles
but is susceptible of many variations.
Topaz rings are considered especially be-
coming to the hand. But to be elegant,
topaz requires the accompaniment of fine
diamonds
Queen chains made of two inch links Of
fine gold connected by coral, pearls or
onyx seem to initiate the long chains that
are now worn in Paris.
A bracelet of blue enamel has the shape
of plain band bordered by straight row
of tiny diamonds. The fastening is but
ton in gold bound buttonhole.
Fob chains and chatelaines initiate the
woven wire souvenir chains that come
from Venice. These consist of squares of
platinum and gold alternating.

Handsome ParaSols.

Parasols used at fashionable summer re-
sorts are things of beauty. Some are
strewn with flowers, and nearly all trim
med with frills Of aauze. The handles in
many instances are of Dresden china or
mother-of-pearl. One very elaborate para
sol composed Of white chiffon and lace is
shewered over with imitation diamonds.
Another made OF the same materials is
adorned with two huge gold and white
butterflies. A third has lilies of the valley
strewn over it. A pretty parasol Of light
blue chiffon is decorated with festooned
fiounces and ting punches of forgetme-

borders. A rather smart one of pink silk
is bordered with spiders web lace.

Harper's Bazaar which has the following TO

We may have no bad motives when ask

to us to wonder how, why and where a lady
OF such elegance and fashion rs Mrs. A.
should have become so intimate with the
humble and unattractive Mrs. 3. that the
one can rarely be met without the other.
So far no harm has been done. As we
have asked no questions, no mischievous
surmises have been set afoat, and no rude
ness has been committed. 1t may be that
neither woman would object to making
known the origin of their friendship; but
it may also be that to tell it would be to
