Revival of Garnets,
Canoes and Jet

a NTIQUE jewelry of different sorts Is
~ In and out of fashion, just as is mod
L = ern jewelry, although all antique
jewelry, If genuine, Is more or less fash
ionable, but the aim of the woman who
liks the old jewelry Is to get hold Of some
unique piece and as soon as the great mass
of womankind has taken up the fad for
that particular revival then the pioneer
among antique jewelry seeks out something
new.
The passion of the moment along this line
is for canoes. Whether in brooch, pendant
or belt, they are alike fashionable. The
stone canoes being the rarer ends more ex-
pensiye. are, of course the more fash
ionable Heads are more highly considered
than the figure or picture canoes. IL is
proper to have the cameo brooch In Its old
half-pearl setting. These brooches are very
large many of them being framed In gold
fligree outside the rim of pearls. one
beautiful belt at an antique shop was MADE
of seven stone canoes In gray Drown huli
yellow, red and oyster white. They were
all heads OF the same size, framed IN silver
and linked together by old silver fligree.
The price of this belt was sl25. which was
not expensive considering the present vogue
of canoes.
**
In the bracelets the canoes are very
large Bracelets have increased in breadth,
and these ornaments on the back are often
quite huge. Old English silver and gilt
filigree work bracelets have enamel .orna-
ments and cameo settings. One such brace
let was nearly two inches wide, the band
being of the filgree, heavily ornamented
with pink and white enamel flowers. On
the back II hroadened into a huge ornament
of enamel, set with rubies and emeralds.
The cameo IN the center was Roman
scene set in frame of black and white and
gilt enamel.
Other bracelets that are most popular
among the revived jewelry are those OF
go and silver gilt bands engraved. These
are OF English workmanship
Although II has not been in much favor
for some time, the antique amethyst brooch
still retains its popularity. Very large
brooches framed in half pearls are exceed
ingly beautiful and fashionable and the
secondhand dealers and antique shops find
the supply running very short. The pins
run in price from SIS to s35. Chain brace

combs, are usually very high. The old
English silver combs have concentrations
of silver flowers in most elaborate fligree
almost entire relief from the comb. The
work Is lacelike and airy to a surprising
degree, SO much SO that the flowers hardly
seem to be made Of metal at all, but rather
of silver and gilt gauze.
Many Of these combs also are set with
rubies, amethysts, topazes and garnets.
When the stones are used the top Of the
comb is usually ornamented with engrav-
ing Instead of fligree work. or, If the latter
is used, it is Of the heavier sort.
For a long time fashionable women have
had a perfect passion for securing the
balance guards of old watches to be used
as brooches, collars, bracelets or belts. In
the fine old French and Swiss watches,
both gold and silver, these round guards
work-all handmade, Of course There
were many of them wonderful in design
and execution. The goldsmiths of that day
all had their wonderful designs and spared
in beauty and finish. 1t Is certainly sug-
gestiye of the different point of view of
that age from our own that so much labor
should have been put upon part Of the
that Of the owner.
Feminine .ardor, discovering this dainty
bit tucked away inside these old watches,
seized upon 1t as worthy of a very high
place in characterization, and the old jewelry
shops of two continents were besieged in
search of old watches from which this
guard could be taken. For long time the
antique dealers were able to keep up the
supply, but now old watches in themselves
have become SO rare and SO valuable that
it is not possible to destroy them to remove
the guard unless the person wishing 1t Is
willing to pay the price collector would
pay for the entire watch.

Irish lace blouses will continue in
favor for wear with handsome suits.
A silvery gray voile, with a shadow
check over it, makes a charming gown
for bride.
A good many alfred and all-blue
hats will be worn with the new mixed
cloth suitings.
A blue corduroy suit has a waistcoat
of tan suede with rather long-skirted
jacket of the cordu ".
A deep wine color, neither red nor
purple, is a rich, warm shade for win
ter, and will be much seen on the street
the coming season.
A black velvet hat with a crushed
crown, somewhat like mans soft felt,
is faced with white silk under the brim
and is trimmed with a single long
white feather, held in place by a cut
steel buckle
Silk fringes may be introduced on
all clinging fabrics for indoor wear.
They are particularly good as a tunic
drapery on the skirt or on the bertha of
any materials such as cashmere. silk,
messaline or satin.
Felt, trimmed with velvet-an old
combination, and velvet with felt-a
new one-nine out of ten hats show the
combination, often the two materials
matching exactly; but some wonderful
ly interesting effects are obtained by
almost daring contrasts.
The girdles which were deeply point
ed back and front are now curved con-
vexly in front and arched in the back.
and if properly made-which means
being wellboned-go far toward giving
the much desired vanishing curve to
the figure. For plump women, how
ever, they are quite the reverse of ad-
mirable.
The black and white striped material
should be made up over white silk or
pale gray. Black would not be at all
attractive. In the colors also white is
best, although a pale blue of the shade,
itself is often effective. Silk, of course
can be made up over any lining. al
though the gown can be lightened or
rendered darker in tone, according to
the shade of the underslip.
A JACKET that has all the earmarks
of the original blazer is made with
narrow, rounded revers below a turn
over collar, trimmed with wide and
narrow braid put ON in fanciful fash
ion. 1t opens over a vest of green vel
vet two shades darker than the green
of the suit material. Four brass but
tons adorn either side of this very chic
little coat and three others serve as
finish to the bias bands which form the
decoration of the gigot sleeves.

Choosing a Husband.

The best man does not always wear
the finest coat or the handsomest face.
Girls learn that after a while, but
when they are first beginning 90 know
men and their ways they are very apt
to be carried away by good looks and
good clothes. l do not by any means
intend to insinuate that some of the
best men in the world have not been
both well dressed and handsome, but
only that very often girls do not look
beyond the surface good looks and
good clothes are enough to satisfy
them. If a man is plain of face and
badly dressed, they do not think him
worth cultivating.
You never can tell, girls, what the
development of the gawky, shy youth
may bring. Lincoln was plain, awk-
ward and badly dressed, and yet the
woman who married him would not
have exchanged him for the most per-
feet Adonis. Take the trouble to find
out what there is in a man before you
condemn him for his badly fitting
clothes and plain face. Any girl can
work wonders with the man who loves
her.
Surprising you fall in love with a
man who has no regard for the little
niceties of dress. 1t will worry you,
of course, for every girl wants to be
proud of the appearance of her sweet
heart. But don't be unhappy over it.
Go to work and bring all your infu-
ence to bear in perSuading him to
take more pains with his appearance.
You will have to work on his vanity,
but you will win out in the long run.
No girl of sense will keep herself from
loving a man simply because he is plain
of face. AS long as he looks clean and
manly and honest any man is good
looking. If he is not all Of those three,
he can't amount to anything.
Don't waste your time and affection
on a dressed-up dummy. Remember
that it takes more than good looks to
make a coed husband. What you want
is good, honest man, a good provider.
If he is also good looking, why all the
better, but that is the least important
of any quality in husband. Don't
spoil your whole life by placing it
above the other qualities necessary in
the making of a good husband.-Caro-
line, in Chicago American.
