NOVELTY IN SUGAR SPOONS
FIIIeree Silver Is Not Only Practical
but Ia Ornamental as
Well.

Sugar spoons Of filigree silver may
seem like an absurdity but none the
less they are practical as we'll as
ornamental for the lace like design
Is so close that the saccharine grains
do not sift Though its mesh. Some
times the handles of these delicate
spoons are also Of filigree but again
they are of plain silver or gold, when
not Of Russian enamel or carved
ivory.
Gold sugar spoons are considerably
used, although that metal-unless
there is an entire dinner service Of 1t
is not popular for table furnishings.
The gold spoons sometimes have
handles Of the two precious metals
mingled or of Russian enamel trim
med with gold. Similar handles are
on ivory-bowled sugar spoons and
these often are most deliberately
carved. Spoons of this beautiful
white material occasionally have han
dies Of crystal but these, although
lovely, are rather nerve-racking to
WELD when at the table of an &C
quaintance, as a careless movement
is likely to shatter them.

BACK TO METALLIC EFFECTS
Metal Flowers and Fancies Latest Fac
Noticed In Fashions OF
Season.

One might have imagined that there
was nothing less likely to happen than
the return to metallic effects, for 1t Is
not so very long since they were suf-
ficiently In the forefront Of fashion to
make their return a most unlikely
forecast. Yet here we are ghttering
as much as ever with cloth Of gold
for our evening attire, and brocades
richly shot with gold making some OF
the most elegant Of the toques and
draped hats that are worn on the
street. Gold lace Is also a millinery
feature that seems worth mentioning,
and one thing In favor Of metallic ef-
fects remaining among the more ex-
elusive of the seasons details Ia that
they are chiefly confined to the more
expensive ornaments.
Silver as well as gold is to be seen,
especially In the form Of large plaiI
buckles or of full-grown roses.

new RINGS FOR NAPKINS
obIono Affairs With squared-oH Ends
Among Latest Novelties In
Table Furnishings.

Oblong napkin rings with squared.
of ends are among the novelties In
table furnishings. They are de-
veloped in silver and gold, decorated
with an engraved pattern or repousse
pounded into an Oriental design and In
carved ivory or painted celluloid.
These oblong rings are found cheek
by jowl with the holders of circular
type which, instead Of being rather
ponderous affairs, are now decidedly
narrow and rather sparsely decorated.
They also lack the rolling double rims
which erst-while distinguished such
rings.
Not especially substantial yet won
derfully attractive are the napkin
rings of flligree silver. OF the most
delicate design and irregularly-edged,
they look-when drawn over a roll of
damask-like a tracery in frost. II
carefully handled they do not bend
out Of shape or break, but 1t Is neces.
sary to use extreme elaboration ir

VOGUE for Net.

One of the latest novelties among
the lovely laces and the dainty robes
of broderie Anglaise for the slender
pocketbook is the coarse net. The
wardrobe can have nothing prettier
than one of the pretty slips Of string
colored fsherman's net and lace. The
course net may be mounted over a
color, but 1t is really smartest when
its foundation Is of the same tone.
and this serves as a relief for last

be a girdle of black or colored rib

"Red as a Sapphire"

To say that a young girls eyes are
as blue as sapphires is as absurd as
It would be to say that her mouth is
as red as velvet. Sapphires, no more
than velvet. are exclusively one color.
The sapphires of Ceylon run from a
soft blue to a peacock blue. which last
is practically a green. There is also a
red sapphire. sometimes called Cey-
lonese ruby. a stone as precious as a
Burma ruby. Besides blue. green and
red sapphires, many fine ones are vel

Parisiabs' Bread,

There is no city in the world where

bread they prepared-huge round or
square slabs was used as a dish on
which the meat was carved and bore
the name of "tranchoirs." or "taiiloirs.
The Juice Of the meat having pene-
