The Girls Room Her Particular Pride

London is Affecting -Superstitions

dotes.
There is nothing that young girl CON
siders to be so much her own individual
property as the one room in the house
that has been given over to her, in which
TO do as she pleases, and which she has
permission to fix up, according to her
own taste and inclinations. This apart
ment, says the Philadelphia Times, is a
sort of holy Of holes, into which she re-
tires to dream pleasant thought or to
have good cry over something that has
gone wrong during the day.
1t need not be an elaborate room,
though, of course, the more luxurious its
furnishings the prettier it can be made,
but whether the fittings are from the
hands of noted uphOlsterers or the result
of home manufacture, there is a charm
about the room to its owner that no other
spot IN the house could possibly have.
To begin with, there is an individuality
about it that appears to be part OF the
glrI herself, for into this particular space
OF her own she has collected souvenirs OF
every event of Importance to her, and has
arranged around its walls and on stands
ana tables photographs of those nearest
and dearest to her, and in every nook and
corner where her eyes may turn she Is
greeted with something that tells to her
history, though to outsiders it may appear
meaningless and trivial.
There are always certain bits OF turnl-
lure IN "a girls room that are necessities
OF these the little couch, desk and mirror
are the three most prominent. The couch
IS heaped with cushions, and in It's
cosy depths she nestles Of an AFTER

A great deal more imitation jewelry is
worn than many people have any idea of,
says London letter The demand for
precious stones of this kind has increased
the supply, and great efforts are being
made to meet the wants of the most ex-
acting Some of the imitation work is so
highly finished that it requires a con-
noisseur to detect that it Is not genuine.
Here and there real stones are inserted.
Particularly is this the case with .tur-
quoises-these last being too expensive TO
make it worth while to reproduce them.
Small brooches In all sorts and shapes are
in great request. 1t is quite a mistake 20

1t is a notable fact, says an English pa
per, that not only can Queen Victoria
swim, but so also can all her daughters.
The Princess Of Wales, all her three
daughters and the Princess May are also
swimmers. In fact, all the princesses
royal are good swimmers and love the
art in greater or less degree. Perhaps
the greatest of all lady swimmers is the

American woman does not dress very

are altogether desirable, and in Septem-

Gloves, again, are just half as dear as in
