/"VNE always finds a number of charming and inexpensive trifles, just the kind of souvenirs one likes to take home to commemorate a pleasant visit to the Capital. Notable among these 1 noticed some very pretty enamels. SWASTIKA, OR "FYLFOT” CROSSES, the anoieilt charm against evil, are in light and dark enamel on plain or plique silver plaques at 3s;- charming enamel brooches and pendants, in glorious shades of blue, at 4s. But the enamel hatpins are fascinating bleu de ciel grounds, with tiny watteau wreaths of roses forming a captivating design. Then if there is one of the commonplace things of life on which this house prides' itself, it is on their absolutely soul-searching ALARM CLOCKS. ■ Clocks like “the. Weka,” which are not content with merely waking you up, but won't let you go to sleep again, and re.peat that penetrating alarm., until, in sheer despair, you rise—to silence it. One never gets a suggestion : of these small things from the dazzling display of solid silver and exquisite cut-gla*>s, of gems and personal jewellery in the wincows. And for this reason the firm invites all visitors to the Exhibition to freely enter, their establishment on Lambton quay, and enjoy looking at the simple needs of every pleasant and wellordered home, such things as table silver and cutlery, watch bracelets not too expensive for the school girl or the business woman, and scores of other simple and inexpensive adjuncts of every day life* ■*
