Diamonds are more fashionable than
ever. In the evening women are fuirly
covered with diamonds. and they are
worn in the daytime to great extent.
1t is by no means uncommon to see
ladies out walking with diamonds in
their ears, diamond brooches in the
strings of their bonpets, and diamond
bracelets over their gloves, and even
diamond buckles on their shoes. For
merly, moreover, diamonds were only
worn by married women. Now, how
ever, young girls wear as many jewels
as married women, if they possess
them, and at recent wedding the
bride created quite n sensation by ex-
hibiting a glittering array of diamonds
in her hair and dress as she walked up
to the altar. Rich people give dia-
monds or plate as wedding presents.
Those who are not so rich or less init
mate give silver; and, in consequence,
the array of silver knickl5nacks. silver
topped bottles and glasses, and silver
utilities and ornaments of all kinds at
big weddings is usually quite elabo-
rate enough to make very fine show
for n silversmith's window-whither
no doubt, most of them return as soon
as the honeymoon is over.-philadel-
