PRETTY RIBBONS FOR NECK

At No Time Have These Adornments Been So Handsome and Worthy of Praise as Now. The latest development of the sautoir is the grosgrain or moire ribbon with plain or pilot edge and a large single ornament on the left side. One of the" prettiest of these is a circular motif of exquisite delicacy. Another is a square of finest filet lace mesh wrought in platinum and diamonds, placed diagonally on the ribbon and held at the two opposite corners by two diamonds. These are again attached to a jeweled section that covers the ends of the ribbon. If a simpler chain for the lorgnon is desired there is the solitary pearl without any metal and strung as a slide on a silk cord. Both men and women are adopting this inconspicuous but handsome device. Perhaps one of the most pleasing novelties of the moment Is a velvet neck band with slides of seed pearls. These come with two or three slides or with-a simple festoon. They are both radical departures from the Oldfashioned themes, such as the rosette and the bowknot.—Vogue.
