Effective Centerpieces.

The large circular pieces of Japanese embroidery, more especially those with light colors, and plenty of gold and silver introduced in the design, make handsome table centers. For a long table three of these pieces, mounted on Japanese siik and edged with gold or silver fringe, would be most effective, the circles chosen being from 12 to 18 inches in diameter, while a carved bronze bowl, with dwarf trees growing in it, and vases of Japanese porcelain filled with chrysanthemums would complete a delightful scheme of decoration.
