M EARLS used 10 be the special
"a privilege of the bride. but of late
custom has arisen or giving
q pearls as gifts to bridesmaids. At
several large weddings lately the bride
has presented her maids with hand
some strings of pearl beads, or with
pearl necklaces or pearl-set rings. OF
course, a ring may have nothing but
a genuine pearl. and only u very rich
bride can afford 10 donate four or six
or even eight-expensive pearl-set
rings. But convention Is not so
scrupulous about necklaces and ear
rings. The bride is not supposed 10
wear anything but genuine pearls on
her wedding day. though truth TO tell
she often does! But for the brides
maids strings of fine pearl beads, or
earrings made Of good composition
pearls are quite allowable.
Some OF these pearl bead necklaces
cost good deal, too. one pays ten
dollars or so for even short string
OF tiny pearl beads and when It comes
10 string of opera" length the
price may run up to fifty or even a
hundred dollars for beads OF excellent
quality A hundred dollars seems a
mere bagatelle, OF course, considered
against the cost OF n twenty thousand
dollar necklace OF real pearls In a
string OF equal length; but 1t will be
very lucky brldesmald--you Will
agree--who receives from an october
bride even hundred dollar string of
pearl beads.
There Is q fancy Just now for pre-
senting bridesmaids with lockets.
After the war. in France, there was
q revival OF interest in lockets, the
type OF jewelry perhaps most full OF
sentiment. Back In Victorian times
when everybody was more or less sem
timental. the locket was in high favor,
every woman wore q locket and in
the locket was always picture. or a
curl Of hair. or sentimental token

PRECAUTIONS AGAINST

Ut is usually necessary in every
household to keep a few medi-
Acines of poisonous nature on hand.
Certain strong medicines and various.
cleaning fluids must be kept in the
house somewhere; and the thing to do
is to keep them where they cannot
possibly be used by mistake when an
emergency occurs and people are too
hurried and confused to think calmly.
Do not depend on sticking pins in
the corks OF bottles that contain
poisons, or ON ribbons tied around the
necks Of such bottles. And certainly
do not depend on the bottle labels
which somebody may never stop 10

corrosive sublimate to clean the cop

bottle away carefully later. But
things happen and you forget. In the

for the bottle in the dark-and gets

IS The bride Of October has no
y interest whatever in the be-
tween season fashions that bridge the
gap between warm September and
actual winter weather that comes

her purchases with a mind focused

new costumes for the autumn wedding

The Bride Has Compelling Evening
WraDS

When a girl emerges into matron-
hood she assumes all the privileges Of
the dashing young married woman
and one of these is the really stun
ming, gorgeous evening wrap, such
wrap as no little debutante could
wear. A striking wrap is pictured,
model OF draped jade green brocade,
with pansy purple draperies in the
way Of stupendous collar and cuffs
and soft bands OF Australian chin
chilla at neck and elbow. In keeping
with this enticlng wrap Is an evening
gown OF draped fabric that is heavy
with bead embroidery. falling in
statuesque lines on the figure and
sweeping backward in q graceful
train. A huge fan OF emerald green
ostrich makes background for this
costume.

orange-will. And fans in shades Of
gray and in black are most popular
OF all. Such a fan might spoil the
color scheme OF dainty bridesmaid
costumes-and besides the brides
maids will have their hands full with
their bouquets. So the brides gift Is
selected for future usefulness and not

many of the handsomest gowns have
either no sleeves at all. or shirred chif-
fon or lace sleeves to the elbow. And
very long gloves of white glace kid
or suede must be provided. These
must be worn during the ceremony
though the bride will be apt to draw
them off afterward. when the occasion
changes from one of formality and
solemnity TO an affair Of fun and jol-
lity. And of course, no bride will
have that after-the-ceremony photo
graph taken with her gloves on
gloves always rob a portrait of grace
and give too much stiffness and for
mallty for a picture effect.
The brides gown has little Empire
bodice, part satin and part chiffon,
with a foundation of chiffon so that
the effect may be girlish and not sug-
gest an extreme decolletage. A long
string Of white pearl beads is looped
from the right shoulder, falling far
down the skir;--a very graceful and
entirely new idea. The bridal veil IS
supported by coronet made of wired
lace that is embroidered with pearls,
and the tulle Is attached TO the hair
under this coronet az the back. Some
brides have the tulle gathered to make
cap that shows within the coronet-
like a gathered crown within turned
up hat brim; others prefer veil that
does not hide the hair.
