Ropes of Pearl and Jet.

Ropes of pearls are sometimes three yards long and when these break by catching in the handle of a sunshade or by some other accident it is not always easy to recover p.ll of them, find in the case of real pearls a single lost one may represent a large sum of money. That may be one reason that the chains are now in less costly materials. Jet is immensely in favor ft>r this purpose, and jet ornaments aiyF coming in as a consequence of the craze for a touch of black in all the newest gowns.
