guipure lace having narrow black vel
vet ribbon run through. Black velvet
ribbon to fastcn the bolero, with large
bows in front. Full bishop sleeves,
with wide frills over the hand, and
finished with loops of black velvet.
A more simple gown, and yet one
that was decidedly charming, was an
empire morning gown of China silk
in pale pink. The short bodice had a
sailor collar and pointed revers
trimmed with lace insertion. Deep
band of insertion to finish the short
bodice. Short sleeves, trimmed with
insertion, with undersleeyes having a
Puff at the elbow, with deep cuff be-
low, finished with lace 1rill over the
hand.
One of the dainty tea jackets that /
have seen several times is of cream
silk, trimmed with lace. 1t has deep,
straight yoke, trimmed with valen-
ciennes lace insertion. The silk, ac-
Gordon plated, in deep points on each
side, with insertion half way up, and
a frill of lace to finish the bottom. Ell
bow sleeves, with straps of insertion
up and down. Accordion plated ruffle
in points with the lace to finish.
Odd conceits in jewelry are numer-
Gus at Newport just now. 1t would
seem that fashionable women give
quite as much attention to these small
details as to the larger subject of
gowns. The really successful ones do.
That is one reason why they are count
ed as successful. 1t is the little details
quite as much as anything else that
sets the tongues awagging in their
behalf, and the woman who is talked
about most, whose toilettes are the
topic of fashionable conversation, who
is counted successful
But let me give in a brief way an
idea of how the stones we count IS de-
sirable are utilized in the construction
of iewelry novelties.
One of the most unique ways in
which the baroque pearl has been used
is in a stick pin. The design is the
head of Moor, black face, with,
above it, the big bullying white cap
which is formed by the pearl. 1t is
charming.
. Another quaint pin has a pearl
shaped like an elephants head, with
tusks and trunk OF gold set on.
In ornaments from the land of the
car the most unique are the belt
buckles. In one a couple of wrestling
bears form each side of the clasp and
make a deep buckle. Two crouching
bears form long and narrow clasp.
Each is pretty in its way, and differ
ent, not only in shape, but in the tones
of the metal.
The moss agate, which is but little
seen now, forms the head of a quaint
pin. The fiat stone is set in a frame
of gold on top of the pin, like a sign
board on post, supported underneath
by two odd little fishes.
pretty stick pin is moonst tone in
the shape OF a sphere set in small
claw.
Mexican opals make charming neck
chains, pretty. limpid things Some of
the stones are deep red in tone, 9th
ers almost white, as they show in diff
ferent lights. Each stone is set in
gold band, and the whole necklace is
a liquid rainbow of light
Quite different is the necklace of
Australian opals. In the other the
stones are almost fat, and in this the
opalescent beads, showing charming
soft green and blue tones in their
milky depths, are long and egg-shaped,
with a line of rock crystal running
through the center of each, the whole
very dainty and attractive.
