have sufficient small coin to fetch her

even allow her to have afternoon tea

brides Of today are having purses made
of bits of their wedding dresses, each one
to be given, with its gold chain, as a
souvenir to a bridesmaid. Card cases
come to match these purses, but do not
obtain as well, nor are they considered
as fashionable as the card cases of
snakeskin, mounted in silver gilt and
having ones initials in silver gilt across
the face Of the case. These pretty be-
longings do much to make a toilet a
success, for there is no doubt that a
proper getup can be entirely ruined by
soiled gloves. a common purse or card

gorgeous chrysanthemum reigns su-
preme among flowers. There is no
plant better fitted for exhibition pur-
poses, and consequently il is great
favorite at the numerous flower shows
that always take place at this time OF
year.
While these autumn shows Hospitality
provide space for roses and violets, or
chids and carnations and the hundred
other flowers that apply for admission.
it is chiefly an exhibition of the flaunt-
ing glories of the chrysanthemum,
which has ruled the floral world OF

ter of despotic power ever since her
introduction from far Japan.

Well, the time will come when you've

Drifting, drifting. drifting!

That we all must make.
