This delightfully."- fragrant Oriental root

women are very fond Of strewlng IL in
their linen presses and drawers. laying a

I York vetivert comes In quite large pack
ages. done up in ribbons. and IT may be
left in that form or sprinkled over
shelves to be perfumed with It.
French women are particularly fond
OF this saehet. which gives to linen more
OF a suggestion OF fragrance than an
actual scent. There is a wide differ
ence between the price OF vetivert. at sc
cents a bunch. and violet sachet at SAC

taste among people of refinement.

Foulard gowns have not been so FASH
ionable this summer as they we're the
last few seasons. but 1t Is evident that
there were any number OF them rlade
up last spring. The fat has gone forth
that they will be thought smart his
autumn and even during the winter. The
foplard shirt waist, gowns that have
been so popular lately may be one rea-
son why the more elaborate foulard
gowns have not been seen. Now the

patterns are more or less elaborate. \

dots woven into .he pattern.

popular Dall ano Iutnter perfumes

TX ToMEN are using more per-
NV fumes now than for a long
time. and they have novel
ways OF introducing fragrant articles
into the wardrobe.
One often sees soft mass Of pink,
pale blue or lavender-preferably pink
gIimmer family through the front Of a
dress bodice. and fancies that It Is the
dainty satin bows OF the lingerie. but
the bit OF color possesses a sentimental
interest not connected with an ordinary
satin bow. for IL is nothing less than a
siIken heart, tied with ribbon loops and
filed with cotton batting and delicately
scented with sachet powder Not only
do women wear these pretty satin hearts
in the front Of their lingerie, but they
have small puffs OF perfume tied with a
ribbon IN the center OF a lace frilied
or coiored silk embroidered handker-
chief. which they tuck IN their sleeves
TO distribute the fragrance OF their fav-
orite perfume through the clothing.
This custom has recently been intro
duced IN Paris. and New Workers are be-
ginning TO adopt the fad.
