Mrs. Harrison Williams. Daisy Fellowes.

Mrs Paul Mellon. Mane Harrtman and Gertrude Lawrence adored his jewels. I met him first in the 1960s with Gloria Guinness, who adored his jewels as he adored her. I found him magnetic, but silent, except when you talked of gardening, and he became animated. ears later he remembered our discussion about night-blooming tropical flowers with a heavy fragrance.

He sent me a packet of a wonderful flower from Guadalupe. It is called galon de noche. In the SOs no smart coffee table could do without Schlumberger's famous cigarette lighter shaped like a fish with flexible scales that lets it stand upright on its tail. It is still on the smartest coffee tables. Such a connoisseur is Walter Hoving, the astute and innovative retailer who had bought Tiffany and Company in 1955.

He asked Schlumberger and Bongard to move their shop and goldsmith staff over to Tiffany, and they did. Schlumberger thus became the first jewelry designer at Tiffany. Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso have since joined, but their work in silver, gold and colored stones, is more in the decorative area.

Most ceietmues today are better knows thaa the work that made them (amoui. Novelists, painters, playwrights, musmans and fashion designers are so busy being intemewed and photographed that the shy, reclusive creator of anything seems as prehistoric as the dinosaur. Jean Schlumberger is one exception. The celebrated Jewelry designer still manages to live "in another age," as be calls it. To him the ivory tower has always been his work essential, and he remains reclusive, a handsome, well-known figure in Paris society, but unknown to Success Society.

Schlumberger jewels were the status symbols of the 40s and 50s. Amazingly enough they remain status symbols in the 80s. Some of the world's most elegant women cherish the fact that they may be wearing a Schlumberger jewel made this year along with the ones their mothers left them. While Tiffany and Company, where Schlumberger jewels have been made and sold exclusively for the past 40 years, is undoubtedly the busiest exclusive store on earth, you do not see Schlumberger jewels in the display cases on its thronged main floor. You must take a private elevator up to a private suite of rooms on the mezzanine, where the newest, and the great classics, by Schlumberger are kept.

Nicolas Bongard, partner of Jean Schlumberger since 1940, receives you by appointment there. The boyhood friendship of Schlumberger and Bongard extended into a 40-year transatlantic associa The famous Tiffany Diamond, largest and finest canary diamond in the world, set by Jean Schlumberger in swirling ribbons of diamonds edged with platinum and gold. mains Tiffany's creator of precious gems in the high tradition. "His creations don't age" said the courtly Mr. Bongard of the partner he sees only two or three times a year but with whom he is in daily telex contact.

"I'm amazed at how prolific he is: I counted in our design records the other day that he has done 48 different designs for big, important necklaces. A few were privately commissioned, but a dozen or more are wr classics, and made every year." Schlumberger has always been known to jewellers as a designer who likes to challenge his workers with new, difficult techniques that take months to perfect. His trellised gold effects is one of his innovations, and his intricate twisted ribbon settings for diamonds, together with his realistic flowers, miniature animals, fantasy leaves, fruits and shells mingling several different shades of gold and enamel. Nicholas Bongard first trained with the noted French jeweller Boivin, where he learned the art of jewellry making from the beginning. His first task was to carve wax models of the designs.

Sometimes a new piece will take a full year in the Tiffany workshop, during which there will be more than 100 telephone conversations between Jean and Nicolas. Schlumberger lives in a beautiful apartment in Paris and has an estate on the French Caribbean island of Guadalupe. He rarely comes to America, but continues vigorously to design. Now in his 60s, his only problem is coping with increasing deafness. Bongard smiles.

"We are very quiet here, too. You would never know that outside these double-glassed windows in the busiest street corner in Manhattan." Among Schlumberger classics for Tiffany is this necklace of massed strings of cultured pearls held by barrel clasps of red enamel and raised motifs. In the center, Schlumberger's thistle pin with platinum and gold petals holding a blaze of sapphires and emeralds. New Search Room at Archives quieter, more pleasant research area. The search room contains mostly reference materials and microfilm records while the actual 60 to 70 million pages of archives are stored in a 21-story tower, which is closed to the public.

Staff members do the actual searching. Among the materials available are records, diaries, correspondence and other materials dating as far back as 1664. Some are on parchment and there are also special collections of photographs, maps and even postcards. To qualify for the archives, material must be appraised to have significant historical, value, said Baumann. Though the main purpose of the archives is to document the workings of state government, only three to five percent of the papers produced by state government end up in the archives, Baumann added.

Over the years, the clientele for the most part have been historians. But in the past decade more housewifes, students and retirees have used the By DENISE O'TOOLE The Associated Press HARRISBURG (AP) The phrase "searching the archives" would conjure in most minds a picture of historians sifting through inches of dust and trudging through endless volumes of dried parchment. But the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission recently spent $100,000 to renovate the search room of the State Archives Building to create a more livable atmosphere, according to Roland Baumann, chief of the division of archives and manuscipts. This special reference and viewing area, which reopened July 11, looks like a reference room in a modern library. It's located next door to the William Penn Museum in the Capitol Complex here.

The renovations included more space, a lobby to prevent wind from blowing directly into the room when the door was opened, carpeting and built-in book cases. The result, said Baumann, is a archives for a variety of research projects. Sixty-four percent of current archives patrons are involved in geneological research. Family trees can be traced through passenger lists (primarily on German and Swiss arrivals to Philadelphia), naturalization records, census returns, military records, witls, deeds, tax lists and slave registers that are stored in the archives. Family papers and correspondence are on hind for a few of the older Pennsylvania families, Baumann said.

One recent patron, Shirley White of Halifax, considered her geneological research at the archives "very successful" and she was able to trace her grandmother's maiden name back to 1840. Several historians were present in the search room along with White researching everything from railroads to early agriculture to the Whiskey Rebellion. Sharon Brown, a historian for the National Park Service at the Denver Service Center, said that studying the arcnives "makes the story come alive." Ms. Brown is searching for data that would support architectural work being done by the National Park Service at the Allegheny Portage Railroad site in Pennsylvania. She hopes that by going through damage claims brought against the railroad she will be able to find information on the original specifications and materials used on the project.

We called our local electric company's Home Service Department and they recommended the following recipe for the starter. This is a brandied fruit recipe. In a large (one gallon) jar, combine 1 cup cubed canned pineapple, 1 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons brandy. Let these ingredients sit in the jar for two weeks, stirring daily. At the end of two weeks, add 1 cup maraschino cherries (including juice), 1 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons brandy.

Let the mixture sit for two more weeks, stirring daily. The fourth week add 1 cup sliced, canned peaches (including juice), 1 cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons brandy. Let the mixture sit for two weeks, stirring daily. Separate the liquid from the fruit. The liquid is your starter and you can use the fruit on ice cream or cake.

Now you are ready to prepare the fruit for the cakes. DO NOT refrigerate the starter liquid. In a large (one gallon) jar or container, put lvi cups of this starter, 2a cups sugar and 1 large (28-ounce) can sliced peaches. Mix well and cover the jar with a paper towel. Do not refrigerate or screw lid on jar.

Yup, I tied marinated pork and beef (pre-cook the pork), onion, mushrooms and red pepper into bracelet-sized circles that broiled nicely: The rice fit right inside the center of the arrangement! Mrs. Walker R. Amidon RECIPE MIXING Dear Heloise: Whenever I make a dish which calls for several different spices, I line them up according to the order in which they'll be used in the recipe. As I use each spice, I put it on the opposite side of the mixing bowl.

That way, I don't leave any spice out. It really works! Margaret Gardlik CHOPPED NUTS Dear Heloise: When I need chopped walnuts for baking, I put the desired amount in a heavy plastic sandwich bag, press the air out and close or hold closed. I pound lightly with a small hammer, the back of an ice cream scoop or any utensil heavy enough. The additional space in the bag allows room for the nut pieces to move around without popping the bag and I can see how small the pieces are becoming. It is the fastest and easiest way I know to "chop" walnuts.

I bay shelled walnuts by the pound as it's cheaper, and they keep in the refrigerator for a long time.

Stir every day for lOdays. On baking day, drain the fruit and divide it into four equal parts. Save the juice and use for starter for friends who want to make this treat. You will have enough for five starters (approximately two cups each). You can save this fruit mixture by refrigerating the remaining part, but we recommend you use it as soon as possible.

Do not refrigerate the liquid because it will stop the fermenting action and you want to give this to friends for their cake. For each cake you will need 1 box of cake mix, 1 small box of instant pudding mix, cup cooking oil, 4 eggs, 1 cup chopped nuts, and 1 portion of that de-lish-ous fruit. To each cake mix, add the pudding mix, oil and eggs. Beat until smooth. Fold in the nuts and fruit.

The batter will be thick. Pour mixture into a greased tube pan, then bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes. Turn out while hot. When cooled, the cake freezes very well. The choice of which flavored cake mixes and pudding mixes to use is yours.

You can use white or yellow or fruit-flavored cake mixes as well as any of the fruit-flavored pudding mixes. Coconut may be substituted for the nuts. I would like to thank Grandma Lant for sharing the cake recipe with us and starting us on a search for the fabulous starter formula. I think this treat sounds delicious.
