Per lino AdrertlBementn lo cents editorial or Last Pages 125 cents The Holiday Display I Tempting" tlie Extreme What fair daughter of Mother Evo can resist tho temptation of lifting tho box cover off her jewel to see tho name printed on the inside? If there sho finds Tiffany Union square, New York, tho jewel becomes doubly valuable, because this firm has a world wide reputation for first class goods and first class only. No shams, no misrepresentations. For many years they havo been tho largest dealers in this country in diamonds and precious stones.

F.ach year they increase their facilities for securing tho choicest gems from the countries in which they are produced. Exports are busy throughout the year in purchasing diamonds, rubies, pearls and emeralds. Besido these precious gems thoy also show a largo stock of semi precious ones, which are dally being set to advantage and to the admiration of many connoisseurs. This year ehryso bervis from Ceylon, zircons, essrmites and tur noise are oxtremelv fashionable. Sky blue turquoisy from Persia aro made into stick pins surrounded with pearls.

These are especially suited for Christmas gifts, for, according to tho old legend, If cold December gnve you birth. The month of snow and ice and mirth. Place on your hand a tuniuoiso blue. Success will bless whate'er you iV. Tiffany's blue book is an annual nvent, serving as a guldo to the many different sections and helping shoppers to decide on gifts.

Tho number of trinkets for both men and women is exceedingly large, including every possible article, whether for ornament or use. Workmen are kept busy designing unique pieces of jewelry to till special orders. Individual stylos ot watch eases aro made to suit exclusive tastes. In this ago of originality there is no end of quaint devices in jewelry, such as lizards, grasshoppers, turtles, swords, daggers and dragons. Brooches are shown combining gold, enameling and precious stones.

A bridal wreath of diamonds and pearls alternating has tin iu sido pendant of diamonds in tho shape of a shamrock or clover. All this ingenuity of tho st artistic designers Is bent on producing now creations. Prominent among tho store's different, sections aro thoso devoted to solid silver, where choice sets are shown in eases. Tete a teto sets, consisting of teapot, sugar bowl, cream pitcher and sugar tongs is a popular one. This sloro also contains a plated silver wars section.

Of course some of the choicest brie a brae ia the world is found in Tiffany's clock, bronze, pottery and glass departments, but it is a groat mistake to think there nre not also articles as reasonable as anywhere else. Tho fancy goods counters include a wido range of articles from inexpensive trifles up. They are visited at this season by both men and women in search for gifts. These are a few of the articles shown hero for men Ash receivers, silver, brass and tortoise shell tourist's bags, bags with silver bottle mountings and liftings, bill books, blotters, hat brushes, book markers, calendars, canes, card boxes, carriage watches, charms in the shape of cigar cutters, coin pock ets and compasses, cigar lamps, cigarette holders, collar buttons, comb cleaners, corkscrews, cribbago boards, dog collars, tlasks, silver, leather and gold; game counters, inkstands, library and traveling letter eases, scales, racks and letter openers, liquor cabinets, manicure sets, match boxes, medicine cases, mustache brushes and combs, nail implements, pipes, pistols, razors, whips and crops, spurs, stirrups, suspenders, umbrellas. whisker brushes, vest buttons.

Nor are these all. No indeed, just as many more can bo found at Tiffany's and just aa many suitable for the fair sex. THE IiOBETTO The Loretto union, founded by the pastor of the Church of Our Lady of Good Counsel, has decided to cut loose from the church and establish a clnb house of its own. A committeo has been appointed to look around for a comfortable home. There is some division on the question of seceding from the church, though the majority of the younger members favor the idea of establishing as an independent clnb.

The principal reason they advance for tho change is the lack of adequate quarters in the union's present location. AS E.TF,RTAIMEXT AT ST. JOHX'S COUEUE.

The members of the Union League club of this city showed last night no signs of their recent tnsto of political disaster.

On the contrary, the well dressed, prosperous looking individuals who constitute the greater part of the membership were, if anything, apparently moro at peaco with the world anil in toneli with tho good things thereof than usual. It was not very hard to guess why this was so when one got within a bloel; or so oi the big building on Bedford avenue and Dean street. Tho windows ot the club house were lighted up, every one of them. Here and ther the ilood of mellow light was 1 roken by the "Xtemlcd fringes of palm leaves set on the sills. The gb ani of silver and the sparkle of glass came from windows that permitted of a view of certain rooms.

There was a hurrying oi carriages, calling of umbers, a frou frou of skirts, visions that lend their graeious ae.d too brief presences to the i ves of outside beholders and, well, there were these and lnts of other things that told the initiated that the Union League had opened its Ijig heart and big doors to its mothers and wives and sweethearts and all of the rest of its female relatives and friends.
