The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1895-12-15

An exchange tells OF an American wo-
man Of artistic tastes, who has Travelled
abroad a good deal. while looking about
for something TO collect that was neither
spoons, tea cuos nor posters, hit upon the
idea OF gathering little jugs and mugs.
Her friends soon learned Of her new FAD,
and aided her in adding to her collection.
Wherever she went she would pick up a
tiny jug, or perhaps two or three, until
now she has over 200. None of them IS
over three inches long, and they are IN
all colors, and represent many places and

ture ollas from Spain and Mexico, squat
pitchers from Holland, wee quaint schoon-
