All Paris Wearing Jet

 

 

ANY beautiful ornaments of jet
M are di: played in jguelr)
stores, and it is said by fash-
ion exports that all Paris is now wear—
ing it in some form or another, as
festoons or handings on thin, gaugy
frocks.
Bracelets, earrings. necklaces, pins,
,rings and other ornaments are seen.
Earringsofjetare seen in many de-
signs and shapes. Two designs are
givon in the accompanying sketch
which are new and will look stunning.
In the drawing is also shown a bar
pm of Jet, in the center of’hich is a
tiny pearl. The other design is a pen‘
dant, which is suspended from the
'neck by a thin gold chain.

As to rings, i recently saw a ring of'

platinum and'jet. The jet was cut
square in shape. and in the center was
a tiny, sparkling diamond.

Attractive Ornaments of Jet.

Where does it come from? How is it
possible to distinguish real jet from the
imitation? Is it expensive when the
real article?"

Jet first came into great favor in
Queen thoria's time who was very
fond of it. And its suitability in con‘
nection with mourning robes was never
questioned. Jet has rarely been out 0:
style as a trimming for bonnets and
evening gowns, especially those of lace.
as its decorative value in dress has
always been appreciated.

Next comes the question, "What is
jet?" Mineral authorities tell us it is
a bituminous mineral. the same as
cannei coal, and that it is the vegetable
remains of coniferous trees and plant
life or fossilized wood. A so-called

“black onyx" has almost entirely re?

placed jet. This is a chalcedony im-
pregnated with carbonic matter, such
as blood or a solution of sugar, the car-

 

 

As to the question of where it comes
from. Real Jet is generally spoken of
as "Whitby yet," which was once very
highly favored. I believe jet is still
mined at Whitby or in the neighbo;—
hood of this place. Whitby is on the
northeast coast of England in York-
shire. Jet. I believe, was also f‘und
in the district of Leeds. During the
war this work was probably suspend-
ed, as of late years Whitby was noted
for its ship-building. There are. of
course. other countries besides Great
Britain which supply this Commodity.
There are Jet mines in France and
Spain.

The Whitby jet was easily carved.
and could receive a high polish.

Consider the Humble Gas

 

LIST of hints for general house~
A wives has been compiled by the
American Gas Association,
which has” been investigating the ways
manufactured gas is used in the house.
Carelessness and thoughtlessness are
the chief causes for waste, and hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars could be
saved yearly if housewives and their
helpers would practice economy.

The association reported that "some
people still insist upon- using the gas
range oven to heat the kitchen, and
every now and then a family goes to
Palm Beach or Europe and forgets to

 

 

 

SCIENTIFIC USE OF WHISKEBS.

 

given to a woman‘s department
of a modern newspaper, is mak-
ing rapid strides.

We notice. for instance; an article
in such a column on the scientific
value of whiskers. which is not. so in-
teresting to the woman’s department
as it is elsewhere, because every wom-
an knows the scientific value of whiskl
are much. much better than any man.

The scientist in question, after
talking about the disappearance of
whiskers arpure adornment. mathat

where their whiskers could go, they
could go also. The cat has never out-
grown the necessity for her whiskers.
The whiskers of the cat are exactly as
long as the cat’s head. and the cat's
head is exactly as long as the cat's
body. Wonderful! The whiskers prw
trude and wire back to the gland in
the cat's nose. Any touch on the end
of the whiskers reaches the brain of
the cat. So here‘ we have a portable

turn of! the light or other appliances."

The engineers also discovered that
"careless servants who rule supreme
in the kitchen use gas with a prodigal-
lty that would shame the lady of the
house were she to investigate condi-
tions for herself."

As an example of deliberate waste.
the ashoclation points to the fact that
the old-fashioned, open-flame burner
is still being used by many in prefer-
ence to the efficient modern mantle
light, although the former consumes
four to five times as much gas as the

. latter.

The list of hints includes these warni
lugs:

Don't
ranges when the smaller burners serve
the same'purpose.

Don't heat 'a. kettieful of water when
a quart will do.

Don’t permit the gas flame to over-
lap the sides of a cooking utensil.

Turn out the gas when you. don't
need lt—matches are cheaper than gas.

It takes no more gas to cook 12 po-
tatoes than it'does to cook six.

Turn out the gas before. not after,

taking a cooking utensil off the range.

You can not raise the temperature of
water ab0ve 212 degrees Fahrenheit, or
boiling point; therefore once the pot

starts to boil on the range reduce the j
, name.

Plan your cooking so as to make one
burner or one oven cook more than one
article of mod at the same tiine.
