bedroom suite in solid silver, but such
is the character of an order just placed
at Sheffield, England. The name 0d
the customer is SO far secret. and
the only information which can be c5s
tanned is that the instructions have
come from the far east, and that the
question Of price is only minor con-

description. The suite, which is in
solid silver throughout, includes bed
stead, a dressing table, dozen chaira
three foot-baths and three hot water

ornate character. Each of the four
pillars will be surmounted by grace

three feet in height. The moulding OF
the room and other decorations will
also be Of sterling silver.
