GIFTS DEAR TO HEARTS
OF YOUNG GRADUATES

There are so many things dear to
the heart of the young girl that 1t
should never be hard to find suitable
graduation gifts for her. There are
white satin slippers with small, round.
carved ivory or pearl buckles and
white silk stockings to match. Now
that pockets are so in vogue a watch
fob of some smart design with both
the white and black gros grain rib
bons would be welcome. Gold and
silver mesh purses are still popu-
lar, and what girl can have too many
pins? The long platinum bars set
with sapphires are charming and make
handsome gift. There are always
novelties in the way of toilet table
silver. Boxes, candlesticks, picture
frames are suggestions. Dressing
table accessories of the dainty colored
fooled leather might please some girls
more than the conventional silver.
These pieces should of course be
marked. Toilet sets of French ivory
with the blue or rose colored mark
ings are more than attractive. Travel
ing cases, either the large or small
styles, with the toilet fiittings, are
not apt to be duplicated, so they might
be the choice of some pondering
friend. A pair of opera glasses or
a first supply of calling cards or mon
ogram paper delight the average
young girl
Dainty lingerie, boudoir pillows or
fascinating negligees of billowy lace
and soft crepe are for the lover of
dainty things.
For the Boy.
Finding things for the boy is not
quite such an easy matter, though he
may enjoy being remembered just as
well as his sister. Silver knives with
good blades, substantial key rings
pencils and fountain pens always
please. Scarfpins, cuff links, dress
shirt studs, watch fobs--all come un.
der list of suitable gifts for the
boy.
For the booklover, a clever book
plate.
There are any number of things
that would appeal to the sportsman
a camera, complete fishing outfit, com.
pass or camping set.
Then there are numerous compact
leather things which would be ac.
ceptable to a boy for his first triI
alone, when he wants things quite cor
| rect. Folding sets containing cap
brushes and hangers, maybe. Th'
condensed automobile sets or ham
per are for the boy who has his owr
car.
