A Jeweler in this city tells me that there
is character revealed in the 1ewelry OF
the present season, when worn by the
summer girl. The summer decorations
confine themselves to cuff-buttons, shirt
studs and belt buckle. NOW, this is the
way you tell" said the jeweler; when
a soft-eyed maiden, with u heart full Of
sentiment asks to look at shirt-studs, we
show her cupid-like designs. The college
girl takes the college colors of her best
young man enameled onto the gold. The
strong minded girl wants q plain opal
setting: the athletic girl takes sporty de-
signs, such as oars, tennis rackets, bicycle
designs or golfing sticks. The piazza girl
likes something very dainty and feminine,
such as floral designs studded with gems.

structed of a spring cot with the legs
sawed down aud a mattress laid over
it. The mattress may have a simple
