A Pretty Novelty. 



The first compartment of the show- 

 case in the store of M. Rice & Co. is 

 occupied this week by one of this sea- 

 ^*on's novelties. You can't miss it — as 

 you walk in the door just turn to the 

 Ifift, and "there you are," as Travers 

 would say. The prettiest of gauzy- 

 winged butterflies ' fanciable. Their 

 ' olors, a curious blending of soft shades, 

 ■"ggestive of harmony with flower 

 olors, even before the soft voice of 

 ">fr. Buyer was heard saying, "They are 

 ■iitended to use with natural flowers." 

 "ancy the hit the ultra-fashionable 

 '"rists will make with these dainty lit- 

 '■G butterflies in hand bouquet, in cor- 

 ' 'ge, or in decoration! We will read 

 1 the dailies of the wonderful butter- 

 •y tea, with the smart set in attend- 

 iice. Who will be the first to try them?
