SHOPS.
Two faxes in carved jade make an effective fastening on a bag of black reindeer skin. The bag is made in the pochotte shape, and designed for evening wear. It would look particularly well when used with the all-black velvet toilette, favoured by so many women at the moment.
Beetle Pendant.
A diamante beetle poised on a crystal leaf makes an original pendant for a necklace of small, round diamante and crystal beads. The necklace forms a chain to hang to the waist, which is the latest length for such trinketa and is replacing the old choker.
Wired Lace Flowers, Stiffened lace in fino designs is used to make attractive flowers to accompany dainty evening frocks of lace or chiffon. The flowers

Modern Lacquer. Lacquerwork showing, modern figures is a novelty used on the face of a clock in the fashionable aquare shape. The face of the clock is painted with the figures of a man in flannels and blazer, with a girl in a frock' and hat, against a background of trees and fields with the sea in the distance. The scenes are painted in vivid colours in the impressionist manner, and the clock itself is of gold.
Magazines in Doctor's Waiting Rooms.
Sir Charles Higham asked the members of the Instituto of Hyglene why it is that magazines kept in a doctor's waiting room are nearly always a few months old, and this queation has suggested an- other one to me.
Why should doctors be expected to keep magazines in their waiting- room at all? Does the lawyer, who may have to convey far worse newa than the doctor, try to quiet our nerves with even antiquated copies of Punch or the Tailer?
Does the banker whom we may have sought in fear and trembling to learn the amount to which we are overdrawn send'someone to thrust a bright periodical into our hands in order in sustain us while we are waiting 7.
In the case of the dentist, pow, it is different.
The advice given in the old Cookery, book, "First catch your hare" might almost be adapted for the use of dentista, for patients have been known to escape even in the from the chair of fate dentist's surgery.
But with doctors this is not no big a risk, and so it seems to mo to be an act of pure philanthropy on tha "doctor's part to provide any magazines at all in his waiting room, unless he happens to want them for his own usel
