most effective pieces we noted were
a long, narrow salad bowl with
matching wooden fork and spoon,
and a half dozen little round
wooden salad bowls Of the type
which, for some reason or other, ts
always associated with porridge.
EoR the very special gift you send
l. a bride when she Is the only
daughter Of your best friend, or which
you receive yourself from your hus-
band only after easing him into the
idea for years, we suggest that you
select monagrammed glassware. Could
anything be more exquisite or more
personal than fragile, graceful goblets,
glasses, sherbets or plates initiated
in silver deposit. gold, enamel or
frosted glass? There is, by the way,
a shop in town which does this type
of work exquisitely, with either q
monogram or a crest, which plans
special decorative schemes for room
or a house, and which exhibits, within
its own small confines, objects of very
rare grace and beauty.
A welcome gift for any bride
whether she will live in a l-room fiat
or a 50-room mansion, is small
mahogany coffee table Of very finely
cut wood, with a separate glass top
to be used when coffee is being served.
If you should decide on such table,
prevail upon another one of the
brides friends to give her the ultra
smart coffee set We have Sketched
for you. The pot, cream and sugar,
all very cylindrical in shape, are of
that eminently satisfactory combina-
ton, chromium and glass. They stand
on a round glass tray trimmed with
an inner band of chromium, and offer
one of the best combinations of the
practical and the new we have seen
anywhere.
Another combination that is Just
as good as chromium and glass Is cop
per and cork. Illustrating the effec-

the urge to add few new and charm
ing touches to their own surroundings,
we will suggest some of the existing
and varied articles which may be pur-
chased for either purpose.
What occurs to one first for a we'd
ding present is something for the ia
BILE. May we suggest, as a present
which bride will always cherish, the
centerpiece and candlesticks which we
have sketched. The round centerpiece
is made of chromium with an exquisite
blue-mirrored top, in which are holes
for fowers-white ones, of course to
carry out the color scheme. A wire
inside holds the flowers in place The
candleStickS which help to set off the
centerpiece so well are graceful semi
circles of chromium, on each of which
is clipped four candleholders. These
may be adjusted at any place along
the semi-circle and any number Of
them may, Of course, be used. The
two semi-circles can be arranged in
effective ways around the centerpiece,
as any clever hostess will soon dis
cover. With blue candles matching
the blue of the mirrored centerpiece,
one can scarcely imagine a more
charming table decoration.
With our minds still on the brides,
we discovered what We thought would
be most practical gift and as per-
sonal one as a chinaware gift can
be-two cunning individual baking
dishes, one for the bride and the
other for the lucky man. The little
dishes are round, fat earthenware

tive use of these two, we noted a cork
cocktail tray with copper edges and
handles, on which rest copper-banded
glasses and cocktail shaker.
Something as decorative and useful
in its way as the cork and copper
tray is a chromium ash monitor with
a crystal handle shaped like a curled
leaf. Nothing Is greater boon to q
hostess than one of these attractive
monitors depositing ashes and stubs
when ash trays become full to over
flowing.
Perhaps what your living room or
the brides, needs Is one amusing
touch, to show that it Is entirely
woeful white penquins, effective
either for book ends or for deco
ration would hit the right note, or
perhaps some chromos would be
more in keeping. They are coming
back in all their glory, both the
humorous ones and purely decora-
tive, artistic ones. But the ones
that went straight to our hearts
were three small, stiff figures, more
Victorian than the age itself,
whose personality would best be
suggested, perhaps, by the names
of Cuthbert. Oscar and Belinda
Anne.
A MOTHER combination of the use
full and the decorative is the ex-
tremely effective set Of book ends
which we sketched for you. The long
base is a dark green mirror, on which
rest two large aluminium curls that
spring back according to the number
Of books placed between them. They
hold with equal security, any number
from one to six.
There Is a corner or q table In any

sketched would At ideally. 1t was q

other corner would surely welcome

1t was large and round, with two
small glass shelves across 1t, where
the favorite tiny knickknacks Of the
house could effectively rest.
We could go on indefinitely de-
scribing the charming articles which
crowd the gift shops, but we know
that when you see them for yourself
you, too, will catch some Of the con-
tagious enthusiasm which they in
spired in us.

~ EDDY FOX had known whereof
u he spoke when he had told his
II cousin, Gray Fox, that as o
i result of the killing Of dozen
hens by the latter that after
noon the woods would be filled with
hunters and dogs the next day. Reddy
had no intention of being the one to
be hunted. He would travel fast and
far that night to find some less dan
gerous neighborhood. He did just
that. He relieved his mind by tell
ing his cousin just how stupid he
thought him to be for needlessly
arousing the anger Of the farmer
whose hens he had killed.
''I am going right now, and II you
have any sense at all you'll leave
also" said he.
Gray Fox grinned. II was taught
that it Is never wise to run immedi-
ately after o hearty meal, and as !
have dined on fat hen 1t would be
unwise for me to run now, especially
as I see no reason for running. A
pleasant journey, Cousin Reddy! A
pleasant journey! And full stomach
at the journeys end. seeing you were
not smart enough to get 1t at the
beginning" With this, Gray Fox
climbed up in the big tree from which
he had come down.
Reddy went without so much as a
look back. He wanted to find q place
where he would not have to share
the hunting with any one. especially
any of his own relatives. And he was
firmly convinced that the place he
was leaving would be an unpleasant
place for any Fox to be the next day.
Cousin Gray will have to lie low.
If he doesn't he will be in for a lot
of trouble" said Reddy to himself
"Such a silly thing to do to kill all
those hensl He'll find it out when
1t is too late"

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON W. BURGESS.

Early the next morning at daylight
Gray Fox learned how right Cousin
Reddy was. It seemed as II the piece
of woods where he was was filled with
hunters and Dogs. That farmer whose
hens he had killed had called up all
the neighbors by phone and proposed
grand Fox hunt the next day to
rid the country Of the killer Of his
hens. He was very angry, was that
farmer. Do you blame him?
