JEWEL FADS ARE NUMEROUS Watch Bracelet Mounted on Narrow Black Ribbon—Seed Pearls to Ornament the Jabot. The new watch bracelet is mounted on a narrow black moire ribbon, hold- Ing on the arm a very flat watch, elther equare, concave or oblong in shape, made in platinum and encircled with diamonds. Instead of the black velvet ribbon, a colored ribbon may be worn, or else a band made of very tiny seed pearls, says a Parls cor respondent. Then again, there is a jabot made by a clever employment of seed pearls mounted so as to imitate the delicate tracery of lace. The gold bags are of a very fine supple mesh and fashioned with gold of different shades. The meshes are often placed in different ways 80 as to Imitate the iridescence of silk and moire. The chain to which the bag Is fastened may be renlac d by a thick silk cord the same color as the gold, and on which are jewcled | glides with stones to match those in- troduced in the mounting. One very pretty purse may be noted. It is in platinum, with b'ack and white stripes | alternating with bands of little sced ; pearls. I A et Bewd®.
