No matter what very many think of
the piercing of the ear and decorating
it with the earring, the earring is en-
evidence. 1t is at times made to ex-
ploit single pearl. At others it is
loaded down with gypsylike burden
which was a sartorial feature OF
queen Victoria's reign.
Now fair one has appeared in ear
rings which lock exactly like link but
tons. These particular earrings are
of turquoises, two stones to an ear.
They are exactly like those some men
wear in their cuffs. In this case one
of the stones rests fiat on the ear
and the other droops bit. Each
is edged with a rim of gold Whether
this be the mere fad of one individual

For those beautiful evening opera

These are as sheer and supple as can
be, and yet there is richness to them

handsome and expensive trimmings

them. The shawl shapes are vastly

For those long and loose separate
coats that are SO much admired, and
which when well chosen can be made
becoming to any girl. the broad-tail
velours is marked favorite. This
initiates the markings of the broad
tail or baby lamb to such perfection
that one almost imagines a furry look
to the velvet The Irish chochet trim
mings are simply stunning with this
material; and the loose designs can
rapidly be copied by the girl who
knows how to sew. for there is no
semblance of a fit to them. The
only thing is to get the sleeves big
enough and puffy enough; and to have
just the correct shawl point in the
back. For the vogue of the shawl
point is one of the coming season s
fads.
