Marks Offer No Real Clue as
to Approximate Period Of

Many fine examples 81 old Shef.
held plate are unmarked. Where
marks are found, 1t Is not always
possible, except by inference, to de.
eermine at what particular date the
makers stamped such marks; that
y, at what date the specimen was
made. Obviously the style of decora-
ton indicates approximately the
period, as the Sheffield pIaters set
out to offer ware as fashionable as
silver. This is defeln1inable by
comparison with similar examples
made by the silversnnlths. But
whereas silver plate was accurately
dated when it bore the stamp OF the
annual date letter, wherever made,
Sheffield plated waro cannot offer
this exactitude.
Some OF the following marks are
found on old Sheffield plate during
the period from 1853 to 1870. The
bell, the crossed arrows three and

apple, the orb, the hand, and the

For a New Riding Habit
Boots Almost A. Essential to q
Trim Costume As 4 Saddle,
and Cost No More Than the
Price Of the Right Shoes and
Putties, Says The Times
Fashion connoisseur
BY CONNIE WING.

Isn't It just perfectly lovely to
have spring here again?
/ guess everyone has been say
ing that for the past two or three
weeks, with the exception Of the
last few rainy days. Now, we.
can canoe on the river or 60 for
long hikes and, best Of all, we
can ride for miles and miles on
the beautiful bride paths that
abound in Washington.
Almost any woman Is smart
looking in q riding habit, but
odds and ends gathered together
for q ride are about as unbecom-
ing as anything can be, so it is
well il you intend to ride even
little to purchase an inexpensive
habit. Linen and crash habits
cost practically nothing even when
purchased in the best shops, they
are easily within the reach Of all
purses, well tailored and trim
looking and very comfortable for
warm weather.
Boots Prime Necessity.
Boots are almost as essential in
my estimation az saddle, they com
plete the costume. / have heard
any number of young women say
since have been here that they
were fascinated by the appearance
boots make but could not afford
them. Well, by the time you have
obtained the right shoes and puttees
to ride in you have spent as much
money and possibly more than a
pair OF Stetson or any other good
make boots would cost.
For summer wear q black dull
skin boot 10 much better taste
than brown, with the light suits
and black hats they make more dis.
tinction.
OF course 1t Is time to put in
discard your derby IL you have
been wearing one, possibly you liked
the shape and fit OF It and are
loathe to let 1t go. In that case
you can find perfect duplicate in
straw, black or tan. whichever you
wish. Raglin felts are also very
good.
Stock collars have been unusually
popular this Spring even with tail.
ored suits, 80 Of course, they would
be donbly so with riding habit.
but personally prefer the soft
broadcloth riding shirt with collar
attached and a good looking neck.
tie.
Speaking Of Shirts.
Speaking OF shirts, remember that
the cuffs Of your shirt should al.
ways show below the cuff of your
riding coat. Another attractive
feature il that of wearing the same
color cuff links that your necktie Il.
