Hundred*.

At a State street jeweterto iih. Sailor Bat—Good morning! Lovely day, isn't itl

Brown Bouwtt—Is itl

"Why, what's the matter! You look disconsolate!" "I am. Here I've been for two mortal hours trying to buy a wedding present for Gertrude with $26, and positively the only things 1 can find that I really like afre a $10 fan and a $500 miniature!" "Ob, but haven't you seen her listr "No. What listP' "Ton have evidently not been to call on her lately. Why, she's adopted a brand new English fashion, and has a list of all the things she wants given her displayed on a mall table in the drawing room, so that all her visitors can examine it for thesqpelves and mark off the articles they prefer to give. It is a strip of satin papa* about two yards long, and a gold pencil lies beside it." to have omt or a Kon. "Are all the articles mentioned expensive!" "Oh, dear, not Some of them are, but others are mere trifles. It's like this: A gold thimble, a Stein way baby grand piano, a writing case, a pair of sleeve links, a glove buttoner, a pearl necklace, a lace handkerchief, silver forks and spoons, a gold pen, silver tea service, and so on. Gertrude told me she's nearly sure her father intends to give her the piano, and she examines the list first thing every morning, hoping to see a croes against the 'baby grand,' but it's not there yet, and she think's he's just teasing ber. One of her uncles has put his cross and initiate opposite the tear service, and against the pearl necklace I noticed a 'G.,' which is the bridegroom's initial. Lucky girl, isn't she!" "I really think it's a very good plan, this 'present listing,' as they call it said a little North side woman, who, is credited, rightly or wrongly, with havinc "married off" three younger sisters. "I only wish it had been in fashion when Jeannette was married last year. If we'd been able to 'list' her presents, the poor girl wouldn't have five sets of salad forks and spoons, all marked with her initials or three cases of after dinner coffee spoons. Yes, it's an English fashion, and some Washington girls were the first to follow it in this cotmtry. You know Washington brides, if they've any social position at all, always get such $l£ntities of presents. They say, and'l dare uff it's true, that the pretty daughter of dilator received 203 salt cellars on her marriage. Another Washington bride (aftd this I know to be true) was given no less thai| 400 presents of silver, all in cases. She was marrying a poor man, and what do you suppose that girl did? Bought a silver chest and packed all the things away in it/tfnd then sold the case*! to the jewetars&Qlft whom they had

purcha&d "She has procetfSgi^er since,

enta—I mean a that's* 'sweii^^'ws a^ift one year may be anything but swell the next. Salt cellars, for instance. There was quite a craze for salt cellars a year or two ago, witness the Washington bride I was telling you of. Let me see, it happened in '87. Yes, that was a salt cellar year. Away back in '88 it was clocks. I remember, because I was married mjself that year, and we had one for every room in the house. Last year was a lamp year.

CONNUBIAL CANDLESTICKS.

"And this year? Why, this year it's candlesticks. There is a flood of candlesticks of all kinds and sizes and values. 'Louis XIV,' 'Renaissance,' Wedgewood, Leeds and Sevres, they just pour in on the brides, at least 011 those who don't follow the new fashion, and there are lots of girls who won't. They say it seems too much like asking for things. And it's true one can't help having a little feeling of that sort. But it's foolish, because if you announce your wedding at all there area certain number of people who will give you presents whether you want them to or not, and how much better to let them have the pleasure of giving something that they know yon will be glad to receive, to say nothing of your own satisfaction in the arrangement. "Then the amount to be expended is still left entirely to the giver. For instance, if you put down *a paper knife' on your list, the friend who chooses to mark off that item may send you a Japanese knife costing $5 Or $6,' or may squander several hundreds on a historic shell and silver affair like the one given the Duchess of Fife, just as he pleases. 'A water color' may be an amateur effort or a Corot a 'breakfast set' may be translated into a Havilaod or Wedgwood. Oh, I think there's so much in favor of 'present listing' that it will surely gain ground. "Do you notice what fashionable gifts fitted traveling bags are now? A short time ago a dressing case was considered the handsomest present a bride could receive, but lately the traveling bag has come into favor. They are immensely expensive, always fitted with either silver or gold, and with the bride's initials on every box and bottle top. Morocco lined with silk is the favorite kind. Alligator has gone out of fashion. "Hitherto it has always been thought that the bridegroom's gift to the bride must consist of jewelry, but we've changed all that now, and the young man is allowed to present anything he pleases, the preference being usually given to furs, from Russian sable down. The bride's gift to the groom is always quite insignificant anything costly would be considered in bad taste. Did you notice that princess Louise gave the Duke of Fife a 'pair of opera glasses, with 'mono gramf Sufficiently simple, wasnt itl "The gifts for the brkletnaids and pages grow more elaborate every year, and add considerable to the unfortunate groom's expenses. Brooches, with the date of the year set in precious stones, are and a good deal far tbe purpose, and they say lockets, with monograms, are coming in again. Riding whips, moon ted in sdrer, are favorite presents for the small boys who so frequently officiate nowadays,"—Chicago News.
