The New Handkerchief Kimonas.

Kimonas made from large, square
handkerchiefs have taken a new twist
this season. Instead of brilliant ban
danas and the old-fashioned combina-
lions of dark blue and white, or vivid
red and white, the most delicate col
orings are seen.
. The center of the handkerchief
shows delicate pink, blue, green, yell
low or lavender, with a dainty border
in pale Persian colors or Dresden ef-
fects, with the color of the center pre-
dominating in the conventional or
floral design. Another difference in
the style lies in the fact that the
points Of the handkerchiefs are
brought to the neck line and then
turned over to form a small, shawl
shaped collar.

Sell Genuine for Imitation.

Prof. Ray Lancaster, the British sci
enlist, has brought to light curious
trick practiced by London dealers in
osprey plumes. Some time ago the
princess OF Wales placed herself at the
head of a movement to discourage the
use of real osprey plumes in order to
save the birds from slaughter. The
result was an immediate decline in the
sale, since fashion could not fly in the
face of the princess of Wales. But re.
Gently facts have come to the notice of
Prof. Lancaster showing that among
certain fashionable milliners it has be-
come practice to sell genuine plumes
as limitations.
