A Pleasant Resort.

One of the most unique and pleas
ant refreshments resorts in the city
is located on the southeast corner OF
Front avenue and Mill street. 1t is
called The Brook. The proprietor
John w. Wood, Is a thorough and in
telligent host, and is conducting a
gentlemen's resort exclusively. with
every convenience for a pleasant time
All the latest magazines and periodi-
calls are kept up to date.
The place is conducted along the
most original lines imaginable. All
the woodwork is stained a dull black
walls are papered in dark red and
draperies of the same hue are used
over the windows. In contrast with
the pretty effect of the dull black
against the dull red the electrical
chandelier of shining brass lends to
the other most attractive effect.
Some of the very neatest drinking
parlors in the city are here. where
those not wishing to be interrupted
can remain undisturbed and spend the
time quietly.
The back bar Is one Of the hand
soonest in the northwest, the arrange
ment being done with view to an
effect that reflects the interior decor
ations of the place.
The stock is in keeping with the
place.

Most brides-to-be enjoy planning their
own trousseaux, and find themselves
lying awake nights trying to think of
something pretty and unusual to EN-
phasize the individuality Of their we'd
ding finery.
An ingenius bride of the fall is mark
ing each article of clothing with IN
embroidered heur-de-lis. The design
appears upon gowns, muslin, linen and
even upon the hats which she is buy
ing. Upon each handkerchief is a tiny
design in white linen. Upon every
shirt waist is found somewhere the
same embroidered design. One waist
has neat little feur-de-lis upon one
cuff, another has the design upon the
collar. A linen waist has the design
deliberately embroidered over the front,
Upon the left side of tho front of a
silk waist the feur-de-lis embroidered
in silk. The decollete bodice of violet
silk evening gown has an applique o,
two toned violet fleur-de-lis embroidered
chiffon. On the extreme end of the
long train of the exquisite wedding
gown is embroidered the daintiest OF
Aeur-de-lis, and the same appears upon
]. the corner of the veil
Another bride is embroidering every
thing with four-leaf clover. Her friends
are entering into the spirit of the idea
and she finds fourleaf clovers upon
her wedding gifts. The groom's gift Is
. n four-leaf clover brooch set with dia
monds, She is giving her attendants

groom is presenting the best man and
ushers with four-leaf scarf pins. The
ingenious little bride insists that the
floral decorations must be confined to
clover blossoms, and that she will carry
a shower of white clover. if it is pos
sible to get the flowers on her wedding
day.
One young woman has a fancy for a
crown. which design is suggestive of the
real regal type. The colonial wreath
is used by one who is pround of her
New England ancestry.
A charming little country bride has
woven the little moss rose bud into ar
artistic design. One chose the white
daisy and declared she would not bt
married until spring, when she could
carry out her idea in the flowers USED
for decorative purposes. She was per
suaded however, to substitute the gold
enrol for her emblem, and the feather,
| blossom lends itself gracefully to thu
demands of the needle woman.
Many young women prefer to confn'
their embroidery to the table linen, anC
have attempted in several instances +,
match the design of their fiat silver.
There is no end of opportunity TO
individuality. One has only to cop!
her favorite flower on ner personal be
longings and the idea spreads like wil'
fire, with the happy result That the de
sign appears upon china, glass, silve
and upon everything where it is posi-
BILE for friends to find the desired EN-
blem.
