over, woman l—ginn at once to fret,
fuss awl fix for Christmas, and the
nmart and Ingenious woman has
idoneihlng snore u> do than spewl her
mornings In the shops, certainly one's
own handiwork Is to be oppreciared
above nil things, and nit hough a woman
may pftn her gtfta six mouths ahead,
December oumm almost before we real
ize H. I have seen any number of bu
reau covers, cxanter-pleoea ami tray, cov
ert being tlirwhed for Christmas, nnd
m.iriy of she belles arc giving UiHr time
to limn fdoturo frames exclusively.
There are few things -laWrier thnil a
■well tnaunted frame of linen embrohl-
cmd tn forget-me-nots, lH>w-knots,
rose* br vlolels, ami If the frame
mi (nustded for jwur "lilghent
particular, put your pioutre in It,
nml he will be Uekloil to -leulih. Some
ol the fratm* are mode of white sarin,
eriibn>i>lrred in a.ljoiiln uulnx-- il-elgn
W gold; these may be handsomer, hut
the ]uu-a ones are the must swrvlcenhle.
if one dues not or cannot use her nee
dle for hor Christmas gifts, there Is an
Infinite vahh-.y of pretty thltnw In the
Hlmjis. Jf you are nctucring a present
Air ywur lies:/girl, the perplexyng ouea-
82# to Hot "what to get." but rafhor
vvhikt not to get.” Women nlwaya like
pretty ristogie for their boudoirs and
tkenning tables. The stores nre showing
the loveliest trim's bf Jlavitaml ehlnn,
with n j-owiKvibox, ring stnml, ofuzne
Jug, ten fray, pomade boxes on them,
iflther in while or gold, or In ileilrnfe
eprlggisl ntilrr.i, such ne gsvmtlniothcns
used to use. China 1mssnpeinc«leil Silver
on the ilmwlng ttable. you know. And
tliere are clriim ehs-ks of lovely Hungn-
I'lan waie, with Wnttsou shoithcndessca
athl she-iiherds puritit-d on thorn, nmk-
»ikg everleoflitg hive to rarli oilier under
the very nune of old Hither Time. There
nre opera glnuies for one tiring nnd
lorgnette chains for another. Then tliere
nre nil iliamier of Slekpllui ankl hair-
Pliss und JewUled nmi llllgne eonlie.
Thre are -lovely' tAnslPlr lutixic und
dear Krile lint <uiixHesricks and nil nitn-
ner of sliver iio-l nvrrry uumults for her
willing table Mvery girl has a sweet
lootih. Iliad the bonbons wore never more
Ivnapring or expensive. No multlor if she
h-is half a iloziua beW and collar buckles,
Wie would-like us maniy iimre. The
swell blue* now nre obkmg, with her in-
rrtalo cut deep down In the silver, or
else they are ox-iulsltely enameled. I’h»
togmiidi friunen of delicately paln-ted
“hum, card enses, puiiies, iirlrrors.
t»s>ks, all are aoeepmhle.
Notwithstanding the nmslu for lire*-
-r|t and l.lmogis, the silver toilet arti
cles uro by fur the most acceptable,
• and for a ni -dost gift a piece of nllver
Is certainly the proper thing.' Key
rings, list murks, valise Ingr, cravat
holders, paper knives und paper
weights, silver kulvcs silver-mounted
suspenders and Ink staaids are all use
ful for mm, ami mnu uppreelnte most
those tilings which render service.
d-'or ymir married friend u piece of
linen, silver or poroiSaWi fbr her dining
room or a brlc-s-bran for hr* parlor will
never fall to please her.
Then then- Is slwnys yollr pot nmong
lh» llttie folks to be cisisldercd. Santa
Claus wlH bring her all the dolls nnd
other toys she has been dreaming of
these l-asl weeks, hut she cannot have
1no many books or rings. ■
Alas, for tho fastidious maiden! The
question of how to please hir It not
hatf so dlllleult to answer its people
generally believe; for the innjerlty of
girls have tho linppy faculty of want
ing Just exactly ivhat you have de
cided upon, in filet, n woman's whims
nre cu.mm,emus that It would take un
army of ndmlrers to satisfy them all.
Good things to* war. to eat or to look
al plixiso her most, nnd tn going
through the shops a few days since 1
find that such things nre prettier nml
more rem-trkublo than ever. In the
h'wolry slorrs the variety of pretty
•over articles mid orntlinenls can
please all taste* and suit all purses,
rile very newest card eases are those
cute Urewnk- alfsirs, tlwt nre wry
hnmksomo, yet ut- the same rime nb-
tmrdly funny, nml I understand that
every girl wants one. The hairptas, list-
ldirn and pmdinls nro unusually i-retty
nnd cosily gifts, but a girl's deep ap
preciation of such things repays a man
tenfold.
dlv attention was oallnl to the ex
quisite nos and handkerchiefs brought'
out espeolslly for Christmas: also some
handsome umbrilkls, and all such gifts
nn» sure roads to sucvesn.
The bont-on boskets are gotten up
most artistically In artificial violets or
dslaiea, win, handsome ribbon, and
after dotng duty as a receptacle for
sugar plums they mnke such lovely
work bankets. Roses wit! always be a'
»?®e* rememhraoce. and Jiat so long
win they be accepted with genuine ap
preciation, although they nx\y Inst but
a day or two, the sweetest part of It—
IBs ttwnight of being remembered—
will linger tlh're sUH.'"
There are airy number of small
K55 .•« cut Blass the Austrian and
ltohe-.nlnn gkire vases, and. lit fact, nil
tho lovely wares that nre now shown
In the shops, thnt make very sensible
ptYsentB.
After Ail. tho uvcra£o girt prrf«r»
book*, and If yoq have n*>t aeon the
poeta and novoMstn in their hoMday
attlrv do oo at once. The Christina*
Autnbora of tho lUnstmfed papers nro
nandotHurty gotten up nod contain ever
•o much interesting an«> amuelng read*
in«. Olt there are numbertiw vraya
n:ui m<atM of exprea^niryour feeling
for your youngr tody fhiood at Chrlot-
tniu time, but don't send her a Chrlit*
ma» card. If you are only going to In*
vest a- few centa In a gift, send her a
bunch of violet a. with a nolo full of
Cq>d cheer of the day. W’ihQt can any
Mtr-raspeotlng girl u*nnt with a gaudy
lKhagraph of a Christmas tree or a
turkey, with a verse of poetry un^er it?
And It • worse otlll stio it takes tho

rather corrupted from tho French par*

In Amerkti has always meant a state
apartment, and is alwruys un extra nnd

English meaning Is a "withdrawing

The newest tfeu in table decoration i
the use of tissue paper, whoso soft, crln
Uled surfaco forms a charming back
ground for flne ferns and flowers. Th
distinct centre table adornment Is usei
very little 'now, tho flowers being lat«
flat on the table in wreaths, garlands
love knots or whatever one chooses li
the matter of form. The paper Is lai<
lightly on the table In tho form whlcl
the floral decoration Is to take and tht
Is placed over It. The idea Is an eeonom
leal one, as well as pretty, for pink tls
sue paper and ferns, and pink roses cai
bo used In a way to look quite as lavlal
and beautiful as If there were foUrSlme
# as many flowers brought Into the schem
of decoration. The Northern florists ar
using long flowing ends of chiffon fo
bouquets, Instead of ribbon, and the ef
feet on a bouquet of orchids or dalnt-
Madame Testout roses is peculiarly llgh
and graceful. It is distinctly bad Torn
to carry a bouquet whose ribbons mate]
one’s gown. If the frock Is of moire th
ribbon should be of satin, and vice versa
Moire ribbons are considered best fo
light toilets of tulle or chiffon, as the
set off better the fllray charms of thos
fabrics.
