WEARING FALSE GEMS.
shnms Now Freely Tolerated in $
caety.

shRms Now Freely Tolerated in So
csety.
How much is real and how much is
sham in the resplendent display Of pre-
sumably precious stones at the opera or
other smart functions is impossible to
tell nowadays, for my Ady mixes the
two together with calm audacity that
is a development Of late years, the old
theory that a lady must wear nothing
that is not real being apparently quite
ont of date. The modern adaptation Of
this social rule is that if a woman has
certain amount of fine jewery she may
wear as many false ones in addition as
she can without making the fact con-
spicuous. 1t is only in those who have
no real ones that the display of false
gems is vulgar.
\ fashionable woman in town, whose
position is unquestionable, wears sew
eral strings of pearls, ono of which is
real and the rest shams, and hardly
knows herself which is the genuine.
Another woman, who owns a couple or
diamond stars, has presented herself
with several others-the best bril-
liants," whose glittering radiance is
quite undimmed by their iuXtaposition
with the real stones. At a birthday
dinner recently The heroine Of the oc-
casion wore ruby surrounded by
pearls as a brooch. This was greatly
admired. Taking it from the lace
which it fastened. she passed it to one
OF her friends. The jewel was handed
from one to another until it had made
the circuit of the table. All the guests
were people of culture, familiar with
gems, and some of them were COR
noisseurs. After the stone had been
unanimously praised theowner fastened
it in its place again, saying quietly: Il
think it is pretty. L bought it yester-
day at BIS for two dollars"
1t mas long been conceded that a
string of Roman pearls may be worn by
a young girl without laying her taste
open to question. 1t is a new thing.
however, for rich women to bring real
gems and bogus ones together in such
a way as TO deceive the very elect and
it seems pity that the old standards OF
noblesse oblige, affecting the wearing
of jewels and lace. should be lowered.
1t is claimed by those who wear false
jewels that no deception is intended,
the owner being quite willing to ac-
knowledge her use of the limitations.
but at all events the general public is
deceived and it may be questioned
whether my lady goes out OF her way to
acknowledge what she is wearing.
'I do not see the use of wearing real
pearls" said a well-known society
woman not long ago. 81 have half a
mind to sell mine and wear limitations
No one would ever know" Then she
fl;lly concluded to take this course and
did take it. Hence she rejoices in the
income of 100000 in bonds. wears pearl,

I'm the opinion OF the government, the
