MODERN JEWELLERY.

Jewellery of one sort or another Is a necessary item of dress for the smart woman to-day. But jewellery does not of necessity mean real gems. With the coming of the Alufer more feminine mode, a glit- tering array of synthetic jewellery has come into being. The most smartly tailored dresses are incom Iplete without a buckle or a tag of diamante ruby, emerald or chine- stones and the favourite short necklat of pearls has almost reached the status of a necessity rather han what is truly a farming ac-

A BABY AND A CAREER.
IS WOMAN'S PLACE THE HOME?
"No woman can run a baby and a business at the same time. A baby is a whole time job." Thus said Miss Storm Jameson, but a large number of women manage to do so more or less successfully. Ineid- entally the novelist is herself a wife and a mother, is she admitting to a badly run baby I wonder?
However this may be it canno! be denied that many of those women who have had the most suc- cessful careers have been mothers and good mothers too. Another novelist, Hilda Vaughan, whose first book "The Battle of the Weak" made a considerable sensation, has produced two children and three books in little over three years. Gladys Cooper has two lovely chil-- dren who slow no signs of maternal neglect; and another actress Mabel Russell, whose photograph with her two small but sturdy sons appear- ed in a recent issue of the By- stander; manages to find time for a third career. She is Mrs. Hilton Phillips, a Conservative member of Parliament.
The Gift of Motherhood. The reason is not far to seck. The average woman is mentally and physically incomplete until she has fulfilled her great function of ma ternity. With womanhood comes a stability and strength which makes her more fitted for à enreer than her unmarried sister.

LIZARD SKIN FOR COATS.
DYED LIZARD' SKINS:
Dyed lizard skin is a Paris novel- ty which is certain to catch on. Contées of lizard in darkish blue or brown, chic little hat to match, are immensely attractive, and they go well with simple. pleated frocks of heavy crepe or very fine serge.
The maternal protective instinct is another factor to be considered.
