Show The Winter's Ilrld. Washington HIM. A ' fad" indulged in by tho winter's bride is that of having one of the sntin slippers, or shoes in which she walked to the chancel rail silverpl.tled. .She preserves it as a cherished .souvenir, and if tho slipper bo small and shapely the average woman possesses too much tact to havQ it so perpetuated if it be uot so it forms an oddly pretty ornament for the mantel ledge or cabinet. A silversmith, silver-smith, who has had several bridal slippers slip-pers brought to hini to be plated, says that ho has put a number of wea baby shoes through the same process, and has even coated smoking pipes, oyster shells and lead pencils suggestive, likely, of some special bit of romance. The silver plaling is not very costly, and the sentiment bids fair to be soo n in dulged iu generally. |
