As the oatmeal is not sweetened, serve Pn decorative quality. It is thought that the art was of Persian origin, and there are pieces in the British Mus- eum of great value of this lovely work. The Italians, too, well under- stood the art of making lusire ware; and possibly the direct English in- gpiration came from them. The copper or brown lustre is the commonest variety, done on red earthenware, decorated with orna- ment in relief, this being either left white or colored. But the more valued pieces are of silver or, what is termed by experts, silver resist lustre. In the first case the lustre is glazed whité, and then painted with a design in sflver. In the latter the pattern is, first painted on the surface of the pottery with an ad- hesive mixture, and then the article is again fired. When the adhesive round of bread but do not butter it.

Wales--the Wales tourist--used to be the happy hunt- ing ground of the amateur collector, but the net of the far-sighted dealer has spread jtself 'so thoroughly to- day that it is becoming increasingly dificult to obtain a good nineteenth centuries a q lustre ware was made In and specimens of this period are in great demand on accouat of that is off the beaten track of the |. ground. The "old fashioned cottage lustre in pink, purple, red, and blue is be- ing copied by a modern firm, which is showing most attractive replicas of the eighteenth century designs, and at the British Industries Fair a Staf- fordshire firm had an exhibit of utility lustre ware which was on view again in October at the Industrial Art Exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, and which is quite unique. The lustre used is based om metals, and its designs, though modern in influence, show the tra- ditions of the beautiful Hispano- Mooresque ware which the Arabs in- troduced into Spain about the be- ginning of the fifteenth centyry. ---------------- VANCOUVER GIRLS WEAR GUM BOOTS. A Victoria, B.C., scribe, .a man, pokes some fun at the Vanpouver girls who persist in ignoring the rain: "Bless their gallant - young hearts! After four days of what we should like to call rain, but must not do so until we are safe home in Victoria again, you would think that those pretty young creatures would find it a little trying in the matter of smart French heels and silken stockings and the very trimmest an. kles. But, Madame Victoria, it does not bother your charming sisters of Vancouver.
