At the theaters, In the shops wherever milady needs the opticians art to aid her sight the dainty eye glasses on their slim handle are much In evidence. In too days of Mario Antonlette and her brilliant court tub lorgnette, like the wigs, the jeweled swords and the plumes, was worn as an elegant accessory of drees and was carried rsar after' as a sort of expensive and .dainty fad. It is xaid that some folk still have lorgnettes as a fad; but of late years, It Is asserted, that the optician1 working with the jeweler has made - them a very useful article. One Omaha Jeweler has defined 'the lorgnette as "A practical necessity in vested with elegance," and It may , be tated that some Omaha women have lorgnettes of exceptional elegance. Mrs. A. I. Roots was surprised this Christmas with a beautiful and costly lorgnette presented br her little -son, Alanson I. Root, jr. (The glasses are of platinum with rims end handle thickly studded with diamonds. With the lorg nette Is a platinum chain set with 11a monds and reaching 'halfway down . the bodice. . ' - i One of the handsomest lorgnettes ever Been In Omaha Is that carried by Mrs. K.' J. Cornish, who la nuendl;ig this win- ter In New York. The) lorgnette and the chain from which it lmngs are of plati num. The handle of ' the lorgnette ' Is encrusted with diamonds in -a graceful leaf design; the ch.ihi Is set with dia monds and holds the lorgnette by a heavily studded diamond hook. Mrs. J. M. Metcalf carries an unusually attractive lorgnette "which ' came from abroad. It was Bent from Luzerne. Switzerland, and Is an Imitation of a lorgnette carried by a titled -lady who lived at the time very near the middle ages. The lorgnette Is of gold elaborately designed with diamond and folds twlco Into a very small accessory. It Is worn on a pearl and platinum chain. Mrs. George A. Joslyn Uses a diamond set platinum lorgnette of exceptional jtrace end beauty on a platinum and diamond chain, as docs also Mrs. J. It. Kcoble. Mrs. F. L. Haller has an Interesting lorgnette which she has carried for a number of years. It U old gold with her ntunogram . on the handle and was pur chased In Pari on one of Mis. Ha:ier's many visits abroad. The chain which liolils the lorgnette is of blue enamel tetiiigs linked together with old cold and was discovered by Mrs. Haller In a shop in Christiana. Norway.
