Sentimental heart throbs Of yes
teryear are revealed In q number Of
tiny crystal bottles.
These" explained Mrs. Leaslre,
"are tear bottles. A century ago,
We are told, . bride was supposed
to shed tears Of Joy on her wedding
day. One or two Of these tears
were poured into tiny bottles and
given to the bridegroom to be car
ried to his grave. Sometimes upon
the death Of husband or wife the
bereaved mate shed tears Of sorrow
into the tiny bottles, also carried
by the survivor to the grave"
Mrs. Leasure's collection also con-
tains many fine samples Of old
Stiegel glass, as well as some lovely
crystal perfume bottles finely etched
and ornamented.
Active Collection
Extends Over 20 Years.
Her love of interesting bottles
dates back to her childhood, she
says, and her serious collecting has
taken over 20 years or more. She
believes that nothing contributes
more to a woman's youth, health
and happiness than . hobby. When
children are grown and domestic
duties have become simplified, she
believes an outside interest is in
valuable.
Mrs. Leasure has . grown son
and daughter. both deeply inter.
ested in their mothers hobby.
Her other principal interests, she
added, are travels. antique china
and furniture, flowers and gar.
dens.
