COSTLY CHINESE FANS.
[From the London MALL


The Chinese crisis will not interrupt the
supply of fans, except possibly of rare
specimens of very high value.
China, perhaps. was the home of the
ran, though the honor is also claimed by
Japan The idea of a fan originated no
doubt in the palmetto leaf borne to and
FRO by the breeze, folded delicateIy and
compact1y by natures hand. Either ex-
panded or undeveloped, it is suggestive of
the two principal methods of making

are made in China In Chinese records
there is mention of the use of fans to
keep the rust from the wheels of the
charlots as far back as the Chow dynasty
11O6 B. c.
The artists of the Celestial empire were
probably the originators of caligraphic
and pictorial decorations on fans. The
Negroni collection, sold in London in 1866
included many of the famous album fans
so long and so greatly popular in China.
some or these fans We're sold for $500
apiece.

longed to. the emperors and expresses of

poetry was that of the Princess Pan. A
D. $50. The princess was for a time the
favorite of the Emperor Chi'-eng 81 of the
Ham dynasty Finding her star on the
wane. she sent him a circular fan on
which she had written verses describing
herself as an autumn or neglected fan.
Ever since in China a neglected wife is
called autumn fan.
