is tfco fashionable ornament worn npon
the abort end of tbe ehain, while tbe
wateb is attached to tbe otber end. In
nonWlseos, beery links of Soman gold,
forming what is called the cable cbaiu,
are tbe moat popular, although spiral
necklaces, which are not ao expensive,
are chosen by many ladies. Tbe pen'
danta are crosses of Bomas gold and leek-
eta, of wbioh there are an innumerable
variety.
ras rowra bracelets,

gold, with pearl and cameo ornaments,
(•main in favor. Wide bands of Boman
or unpolished gold are tbe most stylish
bracelets worn. They vary from sixty to
ninety dollars, according to width and
weight. The cable ehain and spiral neck-
laoe are sometimes made so that they can
be worn either as bracelets or necklace,
but tbe bracelets are not heavy enough
to snit tie present fashion
oinos.
Among the very handsome set. stone
cameos are tbe moat conspicuous. A great
variety of stones—such as onyx, chrj so-
pase, jasper, and aaidonynx—are treated
in this favorite manner. Precious stones,
but in intsligio, sre also in favor. Tbe
node of cutting is the opposite of
which has tbe figure raised abo\e
the surface of the stone—while tbe in-
taglio displiys the figure cntin the stone
or gem, so as to form a depression or a
hollow. 8tonee of one color, such as
emeralds, or topaz, or amethysts are gen-
erally used for intaglio cu'ting, while
stones displaying two or three strata of
different colors are the prettiest for
cameo cntting.
ONYX (AMEOS
have pure and delicate white figures
npon n black ground. Cbrysoprase
cameos show exquisite figures npon a
green ground and very handsome sar-
donyx cameos have tbe ¿arares on a white
layer, and the ground a delicate shade of
pink. A very handsome set of cameo
Jewelry is valued at two hundred dollars;
mounted witb precious stones increases
its value, according to tbe quality and
size of the gems. For a set of emeralds,
cut in intaglio, and mounted with dia-
monda, twelve hundred dollars is asked.
Onyx, ehrysoprase and jasper sleeve but-
tons vary in price aeoording to tbe size,
from forty-five dollars to ninety.
Excxa's Comet.—Bear Admiral Sandv
superintendent of the Naval Observatory,
reports that on the evening of the 18th
instant, Professors Harknesa and Hale,
attached to tbe observatory, succeeded
in discovering tbe spectrum of Encke'a
comet. It consisted of two bright bauds
in the green, in each of whioh the light
was most intense in tbe middle of the
brandth of tbe band, nnd shaded off to-
wards each edge. Very satisfaetory
msasmns were obtained of the broadest
and brightest of the bands, nnd they
gave for tbe wave lengths of the light at
Its two edges respectively, .000604 and
.000498 of n millimeter. No signs of
nueieus were discovered, and Professor
Barkness thinks it may safely be inferred
that the oomet consists simply of a cloud
of glowing gas.
A Sitka owl having been shot at Ban-
gor, Maine, the Portland Argus predicts
a cold winter, the bird being rarely found
in so low n latitude. The other birds and
beasts who are supposed to be weather-
wise are also, as usual, furnishing th#
newspapers with similar prophecies.

Two years in succession has the Grover A

Houston, in competition with all its principal
competitors, and pronounced by the Committee
on Awards to be the Best Family Sewing

A rival Company, the Singer, have published
extensively that they received the Highest Pre-

statement by them is about as truthful as some
of their reports of great sales, as the following

It will be seen by this table that the popntaritv
of the Singer machines for exceeds that m all
others, their sale being one-half greater thaa er^n
that of the famous "Wheeler A Wilson" machine.
This is owing to the fact that the Singer Company
have lately commenced making, besides their old
r.ud well-established manufacturing machine,
what is known as their "New Family Machine,"
which is selling at the rate of nine to one better
than their old style. Their total tales for 1889
were 88,781 machines against the 117,833 of 1870,
showing an increase of one-half In the latter

SEWING MACHINE SALES FOB 1SHH
From the sworn returns made to the owners of
the valuable sewing machine patents, it appears
that tbe 6ales of the Singer Manufacturing Com-
pany, for the year 1870, are over forty tkoumnd in
excess of those of 1889. which were 86,781; and
they claim the sale during 1870 of over forty-four
thousand more machines than that of any other
company. Their "New Familt Machine would
seem to be as great a favorite for fomily sewing
as their manufacturing machine has long been for
manufacturing purposes.—A'ne York Seening
