Fly brushes OF peacock feathers are coming into

resorts have been earning good deal of money by
making them for the Northern visitors The
brushes range in price from s25 TO $50. The more
expensive are made of carefully selected feathers
from half a dozen birds
Some women have f1ocks of their own; others buy
the feathers wherever they find them. as the pea
