Foremos. are the Brownies Good fairies, good luck. The Brownies done into gold, and enamel, some of them of spe- cial magnificence, by private order, into pre- clous stones, are bingers of fair fortune, and as such, are the star Halloween gifts of tho season, The ‘‘nits,"” call nuts, as the peasantry of Scotland will be named and toasted n the big hall fireplaces of many a fine country house, but the modern mald does not like to avow her flirtatious propensities by openly naming the nuts, and for her especial delec. tation the are Halloween nuts this year in gold and silver that open when a tiny | spring is pressed, disclosing a trinket case, | in which a bauble of elegant workmanship | reclines, mayhap a rin perhaps a thimble | for malemoiselle’s embroidery or charity sewing. A stick pin that has been designed for a Halloween gift gets its cue from the line of Burns' Halloween “Pou the stocks,” or rather from the superstition that the poet there re- | fers to. Pulling the stalk of a Kale plant Is the first of the old ceremonies of the even- ing, and the silversmiths, and goldsmiths have made all their tiny stalks stralght and falr, to show that the omen is a good on Of candlesticks there is an {nfinite variety With one or two especially made for the eve of All Saints mysterios. One that has a mischievous sprite for a holder is quaint and bound to supply at least one extra face in the looking glass. Another odd little holder is the stem of an apple, the fruit forming tho base. One of the most elegant gifts for a faire ladye on Halloween will be a triple mirror with candelabra attachment, a desideratum of the dressing room that comes high, but 18 80 useful the year round it's one of the best of tokens for the season. Besldes the costlier gifts, there are any unmber of comparatively inexpensive trink- ets that answer for German favors, among them being many times ‘“‘twa red cheekit apples,” made in natural hues ot silk and crepe paper, and also some trick apples that open to disclose bonbons. The fad of every hostess is to have unique vors, and this presupposes a speclally de- signed supply.

In the Halloween supper that is to follow the place of honor is to be given to a dish of “butter'd so'ns, wi' fragrant lunt,” pre- pared by the Scotch recipe, sowens with but- ter in place of milk, forming the chief ar- ticle of diet on a properly observed Hal- loween. Uniqueness rules. It also costs. The nov- elties of the season are largely prepared to Al private orders, but the dealers report a growing demand for trinkets symbolizing spe- clal fetes, and for this general trade that has not arrived at the munificence of having speclal designs made to t r order, nothing is in greater demand than the Brownies, who In their several shapes upon their se eral pins will go ‘““aff careerin’ fu' blythe that night.'”” Murriago of % Thede Balch, The marrfage of Miss Thede Balch, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. E.

An old broom of faggots lies on the ground, a coat of blue jeans hangs on the end of a beam, and the barn door, with heavy lock and clumsy hinges, complete the detalls of the back- ground. The hens are alive and some of them are hungry; a splendid cock in shining lumage poses himself in arrogant im- portance, and his exalted position among his feathered tribe is not doubted. A fine fat white rabbit is curled up into a soft ball of tur and is fast asleep. The picture is charm ing in its true portrayal of country bar yard life. “Love in the Wine Celiar,” by Meisel, represents the interior of a typical German drinking ve,” with its quaint decorations of stag antlers metamorphosised into the form of a woman, largs wine casks of mosel and old Flemish jugs and stone benches. A pretty German girl sits by the big “fo:s” and is looking with smiling face at the love token just given her—a small golden heart attached to a golden necklace, which she holds admiringly in her hand Near her, In easy, graceful attitude, sits the gallant knight, the hero of the hour. He has thrown as'de his mantle of crimson vel- vet and his sword and they lay in a pictur- esque heap just back of him upon a rude wooden bench. His mandolin s posed carelessly against his leg and he leans for. ward, pipe in hand, to watch more closely the effict produced by his gift. He repre- sents the type which one is accustomed to assocate with legends of the Rhine—a trou badour who could do brave deeds and sing of love in the same breath—a ocharacter, in fact, without whic lore Beauty CultureParlors Eureka and Mme.
