PLATES TO INSPIRE TALK.

Om of the Missions of Highly Decorated CUnaware. Artistically decorated Conreraation plates are now found In the homes of many of New York’s most exclusive sets. Some of the finest specimens costas much as $2,000 a dozen, but they may be bought as low as SBOO, says What to Eat The custom originated in the passing of an exquisitely decorated plate for the admiration and approval of dinner guests, and from what developed Into an established custom of having a choice china plate at each guest’s place when the guests take their seats. The merits of the plates then form a subject of conversation before the dinner is served. Artists of great skill perform the work of decorating the china. Each of the myriad colors requires a separate firing to assure the original tint of its durability. Although these plates show the same color scheme In sets, each plate has Its own picture, probably the miniature production of some fa/mons painting. Or. among the newest of £hese beautiful plateß,,curious and wonderful effects are produced on . rims )and centers in the popular highly glazed porcelain, of which b&§ j&ft? color highest favor, accompanied always by filagrees or encrustations of gold. Gold is a never falling factor in the decoration of all conversation plates, and as the only beautlfler of complete china table services it is decidely in vogue.

Demand For Women Gardeners.

~ Owners of private gardens are reported to be manifesting a desire to obtain ladies skilled horticulture to take charge of gardening operations, says the London Daily News. The Journal published in connection with Studley College, in Warwickshire, which was founded by Lady Warwick, states that this demand is growing, and that constant applications are being received at the college for lady students, either to take entire charge of gardens or to superintend the men gardeners. There is apparently a tendency among lady gardeners to demand % higher wages .than men. Lady students are therefore warned to be Content with a fair salary and to "Mfcow willing “to work as many hours as men.” , Che JJertlccltural College at dwanley admits women as well as theh, and since its establishment eighteen or nineteen years ago many scores of students have been trained there.

Household Suggestions.

When washing china silk add a slight suggestion of starch and It will look like new.

Castles In the Air.

There never was a righteous castle In the air that did not inspire to something good for the soul.
