THE LATEST FAD.
Young Ladies' of the "Smart" Set Col
lecting Crests and Mcnograms.

CSNuK ITcStS anu mcHOg duSs
One OF the latest fads that Is booming
merrily along under the especial favor
of he young ladies of the "smart" set
these days is the collecting Of mono
grams for fans and china and bric.a-brac
generally. The original idea as first con-
ceived by the summer girl was to orna-
ment her fan with the moncgrams and
crests and hotel designs clipped from the
letters sent her by friends, gradually
the idea grew, other girls picked Ii up,
and the go-abroad parties and caliow col
lege youths were "boned'' for additional
material for the fan collector. SO uni
versal did 1t become that an enterpris-
ing Boston stationer has made assorted
collections OF these clippings and has
placed them on the market in neat envel-
opes similar to those which the col
lectors of stamps were wont to gather
ana pay tor in the days gone by.
Within the past week the Bixby Silver
Company and Tilden-T Thurber Company
of this city have laid in stock of these
envelopes, and thps far both houses have
experienced large sale.
Under the present regime, 1t Is not es-
sentiai for girl to possess a large circle
of swell friends In order to fatten her
collection. All that is necessary is to Wis
1t one Of. the high class stationers, take
her assortment OF monograms, or col
ieges. or crests, or hotels, or initials, pay
her bill, and pr este she has a collec-
tion as rare and as large as the one II
took the original summer girl months
to gather.
or course, there 10 NJ telling whether
the fad will equal that of stamp collect
ing when 1t was In its halycon days or
not, still It is so popular just at present
that tho dealers have all they can do to
supply the demand ~ this direction.
The local statioDers, however willing
they may be to sell these assorted colIec-
tions, positively refuse to sell the mono
grams or crests OF their customers.
