An attractive speciality shown In sew

ideas in articles for personal and table

with the result that in some Of the best
stores the exhibit OF Dutch silver is more
attractive than anything seen outside OF
standard designs in some time.
A woman who visited one Of these
stores three times IN two days told a
salesman that she found the Dutch sill

Her selections included n candlestick

figures, the handle shaped like a ship: q

toilet bottle partly covered with a raised
silver design combining a windmill and
Dutch house.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

It Is rather embarrassing to be asked
to decide serious question for a young
woman who is pausing on the brink of
matrimony, but since she declares that
she wants an honest opinion. am willing
TO give II and leave the decision 10 her.
After all. nobody else should decide a
question that is bound TO affect her whole
life.
This girl is a wage-earner, and lives in
boarding house, with no cares outside of
her work. Her income amply covers her
wants, and leaves margin which the girl
has had the good sense to put away. She
is betrothed to a man OF her own class,
one who makes home for his mother,
although there are other sons to con-
tribute. The mother does not wholly
favor the match. not because she can
find fault with the girl, but for selfish
reasons, and If the son marries. his wife
must abide in that unpleasant atmosphere.
No wonder she hesitates.
II is hard 10 adjust such matters, but
there are always decent ways of doing it.
There is no doubt that young couples are
/ better off when left TO themselves But
parents have claims which cannot be
| ignored, and when they will listen to rea-
son they are well treated. There is no
reason why the care of q mother should
| fall upon the shoulders of one when there
are others to share 1t. II there are two
children. a mothers time can be equally

prefer an independent life. in which case

coming to me, would be equally in

The Bedouins OF the sinaitic Peninsula
