SUGGESTIONS FOR METAL WORKERS 
Emily F. Peacock 
THE copper bowl and pitcher (Illus. No. i,) by C. F. 
A. Vosey, London are very practical in shape, and the 
simple lines in both very pleasing. 
The pewter bowl and pitcher (Illus. No. 2,) are- good 
in shape and decorative quality. 
The altar candlestick in silver (Illus. No. 3,) by R. 
Hilton, is beautiful in line and offers suggestions for other 
metals. 
The candlesticks in hammered brass by Frances 
MacDonald (Illus. No. 4,) are simple in treatment and 
design and in Illus. No. 5, the rings of Indian workman- 
ship are very suggestive. They are made from coin silver 
and with the rudest tools. Nearly every one is set with 
turquoise matrix, which of course the Indians cut and 
polish themselves.

been directed to such encouragement of the so-called in- 
dustrial arts as the present quarters allowed. Prior to
