Somehow, every one takes an interest in the little Russian, and from the moment she landed at Castle Garden there were many to hold out a helping hand to her. Down in the wholesale district, where dealers in expensive gems have their quarters, she is always welcome, and they will give Miss Olga credit where they might refuse it to a man. Not only are they glad to see her succeed, but they appreciate her value as a craftswoman of the highest type. Mercy Gorham.

Olga Tritt, 730 Fifth Avenue, is famous for her antique jewelry. She has a rare collection of authentic pieces, which she has picked up, herself, in such far-away lands as India, Spain, South America. A Maharajah’s necklace of rubies and pearls; a Spanish plaque, over five hundred years old, hung on an emerald bead chain; a Korean jade necklace with baroque pearls—the treasures of the Orient will be heaped before your wondering eyes. After you have recovered sufficiently from their magnificence, ask to see some of their simple things which would make charming Christmas presents; dog’s heads for a cane or umbrella top, carved from solid stones of amethyst, crystal, topaz, carnelian or agate; a deep blue Russian lapis necklace with crystal in between, or flat bead chains of jade, turquoise, coral or carnelian; a glittering strand of moonstones; tiny jade, crystal and carnelian elephants for bangle bracelets. and good-luck rings or bracelets made out of elephant’s whiskers twisted with gold threads—quite an assortment, and all very attractive and unusual.
