A t'ostly Garter.
A great Parisian jeweler has just
invented a garter, which, lioth for
its richness and exquisite work
manship is unparalleled. It is a
bioad band made of soft and elastic
gold of extreme firmness, formed
bv myiiadsof intinit-simal rings,
like a snip of mail shirt. It is as
lleoble and yielding as the
ordinary silk elastic. The clasp is
a b-ick'ie of sapphires, through
winch is stuck a tiny javelin.
Tue on'y drawback is that this
rather original piece of jewelry is
wry expensive, but this will prize
a thing according to its cor-t and
