Solitaire pearl rings—either pure

variety in her ornaments by buying
imitations. Late last summer at
Dcauvilie the fashion for imitation
.tcwoiry amounted to s veritable regs
-aespite the fact that there seemed
to be something of s reaction against
pearls that were not pearls. dis-
monds that were not diamonds and
emeralds and rubies produced in a
laboratory.

And fashionable women-some ct
them-have kept up with this ex-
travagant use of imitation jewelry.
The interesting thing about it seems
to be that they do not. even wish
to fool anyone into thinking it is
real. They wear whole strings ot
emeralds any one of which would
occupy piece of honor in an imperial
crown. And they weer three or
tour strings of pearls any one of

In a voiunis tot reminiscences

Elisabeth Msrbury gives'her recipe

for getting within the ”inner circle
of the eo-calied fashionable set"—-a
feat which she does not consider at
all difficult. Among other things.
she says: "Be well dressed. but
never too well dressed. Wear small
pearls and not large ones." Apps:-
cntly the thought that any aspirant
to social advancement might weer
imitation pearls never even entered
Miss Merbury's heed. Once a
women would have thought that‘shs
had sacrificed every claim to smart
society it she wore any imitation
jewelry whatever—end was caught
at it. If you did weer imitation
pearls at all you wore them small-
small enough so that people might
consider them real. It too large no
one would be deluded. Even when
you could aflord real pearls you
chose small ones—lest someone might
imagine tor a moment that they
were vile imitations. There are
some women who apparently have
gone back to this idea and for awhile
there was quite a demand for smell
imitation pearls. The idea was that
if they were small enough you
might persuade your friends that
after all you had inherited or bought
I
a string of real pearls.
But the really smart thing now-

 

 

 

sdsys is to delude nobody. It you

in a setting of brass gave Just tho
right touch and lent. real distinction
to your costume—why. you'd wear
it, wouldn't stout—instead of a little
ornament of smell diamonds in a
tiny setting of platinum that didn't
really suit 'your costume. Said a
women at Deauville lest autumn:
"You can bust a. string of pearls
over a. cocktail at :1 cats tor about
one hundred trance. and you can in-
vest a similar sum in a monster
emerald for a clasp and step at once
into the ranks at bejewelled beauty."

There are still. however. numerous
women who very. very much prefer
reel Jewelry to imitation. and some
few there be‘ who. like their grand-
mothers. would sooner wear none it
it cannot be real.

A good enough rule in buying Jew-
elry might be this. It you merely
want to satisfy a passing fancy—to
follow a. foil that must be fleeting—
then buy imitations—fairly. good imio
“time. but still imitations. For the
more procitms sort of Jewelry choose
pieces of the sort that depend not on
conformity to a passing standard but
on intrinsic beauty as well. These
pieces can never go out of style.

cations.

Jeweled shoulder Strep.

New fashions have brought about
new ways of using stones and
precious metal. They have even
brought about the demand for new
types of jeweled ornaments. Now
there are shoulder straps. Sometimes
the-stumps consist merely in a band
of diamonds or rhinestones or some
ot the popular colored stones. Some-
times there is turther elaboration.
