 Christmas shoppers are fortunate this year in the number of novelties offered in the shops. There are sets of hat stands that come incased in leather and make useful presents for man or woman. Of more doubtful practicality is new shoehorn with handle thirty inches in length. It maybe to the lazy.
 For the woman who travels in out of the way places there is compac: leather case inclosing an alcohol flat iron. While 1t costs more than an electric iron, it will be found valuable for summer travel. especially when going to the wilds where electricity is not known.
 What to do with hatpins is always . question. The small bottles with cro- cheted cover and ribbon hangers that some women have given their friends are pronounced worse than useless. Doubtless 1t was woman who in vented the substantial leather tumbler shaped holders which are heavy enough to keep from tipping over and high enough to hold the pins A useful thing is a matchbox with a phosphorescent. top that can be seen in the dark. Some curious pencil hold CTS may have their admirers. A heavy glass stand has set into it a post of spiral wire on the end of which is short chain to which lead pencil is attached.

he has been made over into an out
