The jewel box of the faddy girl has late
ly acquired new treasure. The jeweled
chains and oval lockets she once adored
have been deposed, and In their stead she
wears long cross strung black vel
vet ribbon. Getting wind of the freak,
which was doubtless started by some
maiden of inherited trinkets, a well-known
Jeweler has laid in a supply of these orna-
ments in many quaint designs. Some OF
the crosses, indeed, are genuine antiques,
beautiful old Spanish and Italian relics,
which once rose and fell on the bosom of
beauty long passed away. In the olden
times they listened behind the lattice to
serenades and caught the tears which fell
at masses for departed soldierS for in the
olden times the cross was much an orna-
ment of cCquetry it was emblem OF
faith
Some exquisite old silver designs are
deeply imbedded with crystals, the stones
nicked and shining no more, but all the
more precious for that. Crosses of sandal
and olive wood, carved and trimmed with
gold and silver, are also seen, but the
faddy girl is not addicted to these. She
prefers the jeweled variety, and if she is
not rich enough for the real antique she
gets something to initiate it, or buys a
coral cross, with the stiff roses of the pres
ent day.
A wonderful antique was bought by
knowing girl at a Paris pawn shop sale,
which supplied her as well with a splendid
belt buckle (MedusaS heads in silver gilt)
and a Spanish gold bracelet rich enough for
a queen. The find was cross some inches

Russian peasant clasps for fastening the
blouses now worn are two things in jewelry
which cleverly initiate old and valuable de-
signs. These are likewise worn by the fad
dish, and only by them, for in jewelry, as
in everything else, the ordinary world pre-
fers the conventional.

Numberless pretty and inexpensive trities,
which contribute to the comfort and adorn-

A Finger Bowl Legend.

To be denied the use of finger bowl at
meals Is one of the penalties people have to
pay for the privilege of being invited to
meet English royalty. 1t is a piece of anti
quarian lore and dates back to the time of
the pretender. Then the Jacobites used to
raise their glass over the finger bowl in
order to drink to the king. The reference
was obvious. for they meant to the king
over the water although they did not dare
say so.
Some people have declared that the Jacob
ties used to drink from the finger bowls
themselves to Charlie across the water"
but this is a needless aspersion on the fol-
lowers of James II. Good men and true.
they were no more in the habit OF drinking
water than the rest of the people of the
time. and the drinking vessels in those days
were sufficiently large to obviate the use
of finger bowls az we understand them to-.

The omelet souffle described in this COL

Jelly and mix them lightly with the yolks.
Have ready the butter dissolved in the
omelet pan, pour in the eggs, hold the pan
over slow fire for two minutes, then put
it into a quick oven and bake for four
minutes till the omelet has risen. Turn
the Omelet onto a hot dish, fold 1t, SLIT

Egg Butter Sandwiches.-Pound the yolks
of two hard-boiled eggs with two ounces of
butter and three anchovies washed free

NEW YORK, October 80, 1902
/ New coats for small maids lean toward
quaint cuts and few trimmings. Some
times with a plain cloth box coat fur sets,
separate from the garment will be worn.
A little tippet of very grown-up style and
huge muff give a wee girl something of
the look of old picture.
Again, older girls will show on their
Cloth wraps big square cuffs and turnover
collars that have a distinctly masculine
air. These are in the same furs as are
used on the overcoats of boys, brown bea-
yer and Persian lamb, most often, with
sometimes two long sit pockets at the front
of the coat edged with a roll of the fur.
A picturesque model for girl of eight
was lately seen on 9TH avenue Made in
Bale bisque cloth (the faintest shade of
tam, three bias shoulder capes was the
smartest feature of this little rig, which
was in a loose. box cut. Above these was
a fiat collar of light brown beaver, and
half way down the skirt of the coat three
deep tucks. Many cape effects are seen
on chl-drens coats, just as on those of
their elders. one sort. below a woke piece of
some description, suggesting no more than
a gathered frill. Sleeves of all are pat
termed after those of maturer garments, the
ones with the big bottom puff being, as in
the adult world conspicuous favorites.
The length Of the coat depends upon the
age of the girl. and the younger she is the
shorter her skirts.
A brunette little lady tfotting Yesterday
down Broadway wore her skirts at the cor
rect French length, which leaves the knees
exposed The spindlirg legs below these
abbreviated skirts are often only clad in
silken hose, and if the whole get-up is white
the effect is very charming. Leggins are
not considered as stylish as uncovered
stockings, but since many children cannot

In various materials. White cloth is a ia
vorite material for them. though coats of
velvet and corduroy have usually leggins
to match.

Bacchus is holding high carnival this
season with grapes decorating gowns and
millinery and grape the newest shade in
materials and trimmings. In cloth, silk
crepe and gauZe dresses are festooned, en-
broidered and worked in a dozen different
ways with the graceful fruit and interlacing
vines and the most tempting opportunity
is offered in dainty neck scarfs and inches
Their variety is almost unlimited, and Of
every conceivable material and combina-
tion Of materials known to modistes and
milliners. Velvet and fur, velvet and lace
chiffon, net silk. chenille ribbon, almost
anything you like may be made into a fluffy
arrangement that makes pretty woman's
face look like a rose in bed of thistle
down. The chiffon and tulle inches are the
daintest of course. but they are the most
perishable, too, and the net, silk or velvet
are most satisfactory.
Black or white is the most popular, but
the new shade is used great deal, particu-
larry in velvet Grape is just the name
for It, too, for 1t escapes being claret or
magenta, or cerise or dolphin, and is the
exact shade of the juice of purple grape.

and white chiffon, made with a huge bow

On niche that is made of pleated black

cape, black gauze ribbon is used in full
friHs around the collarette itself. and on
the edge Of the chiffon that hangs in large

festooned ties in the front to the bottom Of
the gown. Black velvet ribbon, too, is used
in long loops and ends. and Irish lace is
laid in fiat collar and runs over the black
foundation.
Another model is made of black net with
chenille in the new gun metal shade finish
ing the edges Of each row Of pleated ma
terial, of which there are several This is
charming for a woman of fresh color and
light air, but is equally trying to any one
who is dark sallow. The gun metal silk
is used a lot for neck wear, too, but it is
not likely to be popular for anything that
is worn close to the face. 1t seems TO be
more successful in mems silk ties than in
womens things.
A pretty collar and muff to match can
be worn with equal success on black or
a light-colored gown. They are constructed
on the usual white silk satin basis with
three full pleatngs, of white chiffon or
mousseIine, each finished with a fine frill
of black lace. The ties that hang straight
like the ends of a stole, are of white moire
with deep pleatings of white chiffon and
three bands of graceful black guimp. FrilI
upon frill of pleated white chiffon with the
black lace are used in festoons and knots
on the muff.
Some of the most eccentric neck gar
ments are made of feathers, some Of them
used in exceedingly weird combination.
Coques, maribout, the old-time swans
down, chiffon, ostrich feathers and the
plumes themselves make unique and some
times very pretty arrangements that look
more useful than they really are. genu-
inc novelty is collarette of short, rather
stiff, black coque of feathers, with stole
ends of white down and queer little tails
of the coques This Is one of those
odd articles that woman may add
to her wardrobe If she is sufficiently well
stocked with the regulation articles to af-
ford few freak features. These feather
boas can never be really smart. for they
have obviously no raison detre. and so
can never be a staple fashion But they
are among the seasons novelties, and wo-
men buy them, and now and then one does
look chic and fetching in her feathery neck
lace.
Maribout Feathers.
The round ordinary, feather boa Is out,
and in it's place are some very extravagant
creations that find favor with good many
well-dressed women. The most fanciful
and utterly extravagant boa is of maribout
feathers white tipped with brown, and
substantial touch is added by large bow
of golden brown velvet rihbin on each side
of the front, and at one side bunch OF
pale pink crush silk roses.
These fine feathered affairs are the merest
fancies and are not for service. A feather
boa of any sort makes red-hot line about
the neck Is neither large enough nor heavy
enough to be a protection, and before the
season is half over looks much as birds
plumage does after a spell of weather
But women of fashion must have novelties,
and the fancy feather boa is novel and very.
pretty.
