AN ANTIQUE RING
ITS CHARM. Side by side with the craze for artificial jewellery, which is being worn so much just now, i 3 a rival fashion for the quaint pretty pieces our grandmothers used to wear. So if you have any old trinkets locked away, look them out and see if any use can be made of them. Some antique rings are charming, if they are not too heavy. They often add a last- touch to a picturefrock, besides looking well when worn with our plainer day things. You could use a very large man's ring as a scarf-ring; though, of course, for this tho scarf material must not be too thick. Sometimes a long bar-brooch, or a single ear-ring, may bo converted into a most effective hat ornament, while those big, round, medallion brooches, preferably the one 3 with coloured or semiprecious stones set in gold, are extraordinarily chic worn on the lapel of a tweed tailor-made in place of the more ordinary flower buttonhole.
