Show TRUTH 6 pearl for the center of the string, the next two were gray, the following two a shade lighter, and so on to the white, and then repeated until the string was completed. There Is not quite the craze for that there was a couple of years ago, but a long, narrow pendant made of diamonds cut In different shapes is quite new. For example, the top Rtone is a large, round white stone; below It, perhaps, a heart-shape- d diamond, or a navette; then, perhaps, an oblong stone, and so on, making a pendant from two to two and a half Inches long and only as wide as are the stones. One beautiful pendant of this order terminated with a very large ruby and was most effective. A pendant of the Empire style had a very large sapphire surrounded by diamonds; it swung in a wreath of diamonds. It is hardly necessary for me to suggest gifts for men, for Madame, as a rule, is quite familiar with the Jewelers and knows pretty well what she is to give Monsieur. It is only the poor weak men who leave until the last moment the purchasing of gifts, and then are at their wits end to know what to buy. However, one little hint; the cuff links and waistcoat buttons of moonstones set in a rim of gold are very smart, as are star sapphires set in the same way. That reminds me that one of the most exquisite and unusual necklaces I have seen was made of star sapphires. I am most enthusiastic over these stones, they are so uncommon, and I admire their pale, cool color. It is reminiscent of moonlight. La-valller- es . d The engagement of Mis3 Eleanor Roosevelt, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Elliott Roosdvelt, to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, son of Mrs. James Roosevelt, of Springwood, Hyde Park, is interesting. Miss Roosevelt and her fiancee are distant cousins. Her. father was President Roosevelts only brother. Since the death of her parents she has been mainly in the care of her grandmother, Mrs. Valentine Hall. When Elliott Roosevelt died in 1894, he left an estate to his three children estimated at $175,000, but which was in reality worth much more. The son has since died leaving the two girls, Eleanor and Grace, the sole heirs. Each has more than $100,000 coming under the will of her father, and in addition each has awaiting her a trust fund under the will of her grandfather, Theodore Roosevelt. In 1895, when W. Emlen Roosevelt made an accounting as the guardian of the children the amount due. to each was $39,970. The fund has since increased greatly in value. Miss Roosevelt is at present making her home with Mr. and Mrs. Henry Parish, Jr. & d more Miss Roosevelt has claims to looks than any of the Roosevelt good cousins. This she inherits from her mother, who was the beauty of Mrs. Valentine Halls four daughters. She is a niece of Mrs. Stanley Mortimer, Mrs. Lawrence Waterbury and Mrs. William Forbes Morgan, Jr., Franklin Delano Roosevelt is a of James Roosevelt Roosevelt, whose daughter married a nephew of the president, thus further complicating the Roosevelt relationship. Mr. Roosevelt, who was graduated from Harvard last year, was editor of the Harvard Crimson. He was defeated after a close struggle for election as a class day officer. His mother was formerly Miss Sara Delano, and she is related to the Forbes and Weekes families. He is a member of the New York Yacht club. half-broth- er d d Sancte Claus not Santa Claus is the correct old Dutch and old English name of St. Nicholas, who rules this Christmas season.
