Bt Peggy Powebs. . I HE pearl ranks first as the fashionable . stone of the Jt hour. Possibly because It is SS?S y far the most expensive of TV all precious gems. Pearls are more valuable than dia

monds, next in value comes the glowing ruby. Women who hesitate to wear Imitation Jewels, wear necklaces of pearls which so closely resemble the genuine that it is difficult for any but an expert to determine whether they re a substitute for the real or not Sapphires also are very popular, especially when set with diamonds in the French caliber setting. The call for color has brought the livine in favor. The color is beautiful, and It is often preferred to the emerald s It is softer in tone. Olivine as a central stone surmounted with fine diamond work is especially liked for a pew ring or pendant. It is hardly necessary to remark that nothing in the way of elaborate Jewelry is adaptable for morning wear when a woman la gowned in a tailored rait or shirt waist dress. However, a circular brooch of gold or enamel at the neck to hold the collar in place is always appropriate. If a watch Is

worn, a sautoir of ribbon with gold or platinum slides is permissible. Earrings should be of the stud type, either of pearls or baroque pearls. In the whole realm of jewelry, the pearl necklace is the only one in good taste for morning, afternoon and evening wear. Sometimes the pearls are worn under the filmy lace collar and Just glimmer through the net. Bar pins are shown in chased gold or filigree, set with pearls, or whole bar pins of seedpearls. Old fashioned lockets are very ropular. Some of the prettiest are enameled in dainty flowers or silver. One locket of dark blue enamel had a pretty wreath design In natural colored flowers. This hung from a blue enamel chain with silver links. The neck chains are from lfi to 18 inches in length. The round gold bead chains have been superseded by gold chains with pear shaped gold pendants graduated in size. Vanity cases are shown in a variety of designs from the inexpensive one in Parisian ivory to the more elaborate affairs In gold and silver. As It is such a convenient contrivance, it is safe to predict its continued popularity. Fine silver mesh bags are attached to the plain silver bracelet. The bracelet does not need to be removed when

the bag is opened. Bracelets serre many purposes these days and are useful as well as ornamental. There are a harvest of new ideas in the flexible watch bracelets. Of the plainest gun metal to the most elaborate bracelet of platinum set in diamonds are bracelets with tiny watches. Some are enameled, others of sterling silver, some of gold and some of ribbon with Jeweled slides. Some bracelets have powder puffs attached, while others have small "pay as you enter" purses. There is a revival of the old-fashioned reticule, which was carried by ladles of fashion nearly a century ago. Then the bags were beaded by hand and an exclusive design was highly prized. Most of the bags are beaded by machinery, but so wonderfully is the work accomplished that these bags are really exquisite. Most of the leather bags are envelope in shape and have flexible tops. A new idea shown in the lingerie bar pin. This fastens with a patent clasp, and is far more desirable than the ordinary small bar pins. Cameos are exquisite and are more popular than ever. Fortunate is the person who possesses an heirloom in the shape of a cameo set in an oldfashioned old s.tting.
