Many of the Easter gifts this year

pictures and tied with bright colored
ribbons. For the diamond ring or the
stud there are tiny eggs, and for the
necklaces larger sized eggs ranging
in size, all the way up to the big
eggs that will hold children's toys,
handsome china dishes and any one of
a thousand articles that have value
as an Easter gift. One of the favors
for a party is the gg-shaped box fill
ed with candy. The egg boxes are
ofttimes outwordly embellished with
a tiny yellow chich or little bunny,
and sometimes the fluffy ball or yellow
that is like a chicken has a nest
pocketbook, and a needle case or some
other practical gift. There are more
novelties this year than ever in the
way of pretty Easter articles for the
table, dishes with pictures of chick
ems. rabbits and birds on them, and
even glassware is embellished with
/ designs appropriate to the season and
one may choose gold or colors at
! pleasure. There are spring flower
| effects in the way of cards, and there
are miniature chicken coops, with a
family of tiny yellow chicks within,
that are to be place markers of favors.
