UTILIZING OLD JEwELRY.
Many Ways In Which 1t Can Be
~. Made UseNOf.

There are perhaps few of us who have
not on hand quite collection OF old jew
elry, which we occasionally y take look at,
and sigh over, because there seems no
available way OF utilizing it; for the an
tique gold brooches, dangling earrings and
wonderful bracelets OF thirty or more years
ago stand little show OF being again made
fashionable by our modern workers in
gold and Jewels. There arc, however, sew
sral ways in which these obsolete treas
ures may be made to serve purpose both
useful and beautiful. The huge oval brooch,
forinstance, worn by your mother, willmake
a beautiful frame for u miniature or oil her
small picture. IL the collection OF human hair
or other curious center is taken out.
Then there are those terrible silver Iran-
acles which we wore quite checrrulIy our
selves not so very long ago. A dainty use
for these. and one when will commend il
self to all who like Something uniaue for
their toilet tables is merely to transform
mimic pincushions. Firstcleanthe brace
ietthoronghly and then glue the low edge
very firmly 10 an yalshaped piece of card
board. When the bracelet has STUCK well
cut the board TO the extreme edge and pro-
ceed to make your cushion. This must be
oval. OF course. and can be filled with bran.
Then slip the remaining bangles over the
cushion at equal distances apart. The
cushion need not be glued to the card
come in and out, when the silver rims en- N
be easily cleaned.
Every woman who can afford them
and Il great many who cannot-are buy
ing gold and Jewele1 batpins Why not
make an unwearable pair of earrings In, q
beautiful and original hat pins? Only
recently saw two such, one made of the
tops" fastened together, back to back,
and the other OF one of the drops" The
earrings in question were old fas asb
ruby eyes; but in an altered form they are
th ey served as decorations To grand
mothers pretty ears.
one of the most original ways OF turn
ing unwearable jewelry into a thing OF
beauty was confided to me by a clever
friend the other day. noticed she was
wearing one of the new chatelain.s. with
only set of tablets and tiny chain nurse
suspended from it, the whole being of gold.
When the proud possessor told me it had
cost her something under 50 refused to
be convinced until she made the following
revelation. The large clasp at the waist
was merely q solid gold brooch of elaborate
design and Workmanship which had been
put away for some twenty years, and the
two narrow chains which hung from il
had originally been the pair of bracelets
to match. From one OF these depended n
flat gold locket OF incredible size, which
had been unhinged, slightly cut at tn.
edges and furnished with ivorySfor max
ing notes on, and tiny gold pencil. From
theGiilcr hung real old cnain purse tre..ilt
OF course). the whole forming most unique
chat elaine.

HER INFLUENCE FELT.
Women Employees in Germany Hav
Improved All Conditions.

The growth OF the textile industry in the
German empire is shown in the result of
last years census OF mechanics reported to
the State Department by Consul Sawtcr at
Glauchau. In this industry over one million
persons are employed and the interesting
fact is noted that there has been n yearly
decrease Of male eandcorrcsponding increase
of female employees.
The exact number of employees was l.
T,112, against 932 ,592 in 1882. Since
1888 the male decreased from 5S2,O1O to
552 ,230, Il change OF 20 $40. Their places
have been filled by females whose number
grew from $50 ,522 to 464, ,316 in the same
period. One curious result of these changes
is the improved sanitary surroundings and
comfort provided fer the employees.
