The most convenient writing wallet for a 
A Writm« soldier imaginable is made exactly on the 
Wallet. principle of the usual type of pocket- 
book. It is specially designed to slip into a field service ] ackct 
nocket and is a model of compact neatness. 
^ The wallet is made of durable pigskin, and besides con- 
taining writing materials has a pocket for visiting cards and 
stamps this is a discreet hiding space for a photograph. 
Sg'securely into a slot is an indelible pencil and other 
detaillare envelopes, writing paper and postcards. Lach of 
these has a special compartment to itself, and tfikes up an 
almost incredibly small amount of space, while there is also a 
place for received letters. , , , i 
The designers of this wallet are to be congratulated upon 
thoroughly knowing their business, and its considerate price is 
■is 6d Passe P.\rtout.

The latest reports from the jewellers say- that pearls 
are selling remarkably well even in these days of financial 
strain. Most people prefer pearls at the moment to the more 
ostentatious diamond, and they are, moreover, when well- 
chosen and carefully bought, always a good mvestment. 
Afternoon teas and entertainments are to be given to 
soldiers and sailors of the Expeditionary Forces during the 
cold weather months. Queen Alexandra is the patron, and a 
small committee is hard at work drawing up the details and 
making the necessary plans. Arrangements are being made 
for the conveying of about loo men from the various hospitals 
to and from the place of entertainment. The Grosvenor Hall, 
Buckingham Palace Road, was the place chosen for the hrst 
two afternoons, and it is hoped that later on even larger 
parties of our wounded will be invited and entertained. 
Small feathered hats looking as if they hailed straight 
from the poultry yard are being mUch worn in Paris and have 
already arrived over here. They are small, rather impertinent, 
and being soft and becoming suit nine women out of ten. Some 
of them are of black coque's feather, others of guinea-fowl 
plumage, but one and all are intensely serviceable, .and resist 
the attacks of wind, wet, and bad weather in the most satis- 
factory way. They are without doubt an' excellent accom- 
paniment to a tailor-made coat and skirt, and that is all the 
majority of us ask now-a-days. 
Messrs. Mappin and Webb have moved their Regent Street 
premises to 175, Regent Street, and their new establish- 
ment is well worth a \'isit. It spreads over three floors which 
are easily reached by lift or staircase, and all that can be 
wished for in the way of clocks, jewellery, silver ware and the 
like, is to be seen displayed to more than usually good advan-' 
tage. The new premises must certainly be voted a triumph 
for all concerned, from the architect downwards. Many people 
will pay them a visit on purpose to note the clever arrangcrnent 
of the downstairs gilt spiral staircase leading into the silver 
department. It may safely be said that underground premises 
have rarely been brought to such a state of perfection as these ; 
but this is trueof every inch of this latest contribution to Lon- 
don's greater sho'.kTooms, as visitors will be quick to discover 
Show pieces and novelties in the way of table silver, jewellery 
and toilet accessories are now on view to mark tire first weeks 
of Messrs. Mappin and Webb's occupation.
