French or Irish linen OF the finest
quality should be used for any hand

When Armenian or any other very

though Infinite care must be devoted
TO the hand hemming. as irregulariy

the work.
Exceedingly narrow hemstitched
borders are more than ever popular.
and nearly always handkerchiefs so
treated have corners EN- broidered deli

detached butterfly and flower designs.
Sometimes only one corner is decorat-
