Another reason why some good oil

In popular jewelry this is a Noah 5

the serpent leading all the rest. The
lion and the lamb are In favor, but not
prime. Popular jewelry is the SORT one

silver, or any other metal, suiting in color
and spirit the costume with which 1t is
intended to be worn. One has grades in

Economy and friendship are aided by

costs from so cents to g. If gold is de-

much higher. The cost of engraving
should be betrayed by those who are ask
ed to place their monograms upon it.
The ordinary price for engraving capitals
is 10 cents a letter, thus making the total
cost of tri-lettered monogram 80 cents.
An ordinary bracelet will accommodate
about twenty-five names. Girls who have
a large acquaintance have a series of
bracelets, the initials of their best friends
appearing on the first bracelet, those who
are less favored upon the second, and so
on in a retrograde order.
Occasionally a girl purchases two brace
