Again in style.
English jewellers are making a spe-
cialty Of sporting and military designs
in jewelry for both women and men,
and the fnshion has it's followers here.
One may get dainty horseshOes of dia-
monds, hunting horns of gold, running
foxes Of gold and Jewels, hounds,
hares, hunting whips, golf clubs with
pearl balls and ribbon bows In gold.
pheasants, partridges and almost
everything else suggestive of ones ia.

elled in natural colors or the perch.
salmon or pike Swords, daggers. tiny
cannon and revolvers are worn by
many young women as souvenirs Of
brother or lover In South Africa or the
philippines.
The "constancy bracelet" which is
locked on the arm of one while the
other keeps the key. has never gone

its pristine ugllness. Some designs
are graceful aud artistic, il Is true, but
as rule they are suggestive of mana
cles more than anything else.
A fashionable cardcnsc is of monkey
skin, shaped like an envelope and dec

of cases the Jewels are merely col

makes the article expensive, but some
times real amethysts. turquoises and
other stones are used in gold settings,
and then the cardcase becomes :. fit

fastened by removable jeweled studs.

Is correct accompaniment. The ex-
pense varies with the method of cut
ting the jet pnillettes or nailhead orna-
rents.
Belt buckles vary in size from two
TO four inches. and the oval seems to
he the fayorite shape. Enameled
buckles are the latest cry Of fashion,
and their exquisite coloring and bril-
liant polish make them most desirable

usually OF tligree. and the designs
show tiny birds, horses, deer and
other fancies from the animal king

feet i'm form and tint that they almost
seem to grow. AT the back of the
belt snake may be worn, whose en-

startle one into believing it real, or
lizards. toads and turtles may cling
apparently TO the waist.
1t has been dccreed that jewels shall
be worn, and it is whispered that even
earrings are to he taken from their
deserved oblivion. But they will be
worn with difference. No longer
shall the harbarous piercing be re-
sorted to. Screw shape drops. studs,
hoops, all are arranged with "clip and

wear them. Alas. the women who can
not viii wear limitations! That is the
horror of it. Spurious gems will scin-
tllatc on the c0rsnge, sparkle in the
hair, twinkle in the ears and flash
upon the neck. Oriental barbarism of
splendor will reign for IL season-then
well-bred women will return their
gems to their boxes and once more re-

The craze for jeweled effects has

ornament. They may be small, they
may he large, they may be brillinnts
or turquoise. hut buckles there must
