POCKET ON FINGER RING
is WOMAN'S LATEST FAD
Enables Milady to Carry Hand
kerchief or Puff

LONDON, March 12.-Many devices
have been invented to take the place
of the despised pocket which no self
respecting costumer will fit into a
dress. The latest idea is. a finger
pocket. cut to hold a handkerchief
or a powder box. The finger pocket
is made of silver gilt, silver or gold,
in a square or circular, design.
1t hangs from a short chain, at the
end of which is a ring to slip over
the middle finger These pockets can
also be made of brocaded silks or
satins, and can be fitted with a ribbon
ring.
1T is very pretty fashion" said
the manager of west end firm.
Such pockets are not easily lost, as
the ring can be made to fit the finger
exactly. Hitherto bags have displaced
pockets. but a woman does not always
want to carry q bag in which to hold
her handkerchief
The finger. pockets are made in
the most charming designs. The most
popular is piece Of dainty enamel
work protected by glass. Little
wreaths of dull green laurel leaves in
a powder-blue ground, or punches of
purple violets on silver gray ground
or pale pink roses on a lilac ground
are all effective. Some are designed to
hold miniature puff and a looking
glass.
Some of our customers wear these
pockets on a long gold chain, which
passes around the waist

DAINTY BAGS REVIVE USE
OF THE DESPISED FANS
Women Carry Hand Embroid=
cred and Painted SatcheIs

LONDON, March 12.-It seemed last
year as if fans would die a natural
death Nearly every woman whether
she went to dance or a theater
looked on her fan as a nuisance and
left it behind.
This year, however, there has been
a strong revival of the fan, owing to
the dainty little fan bags which have
made an appearance. They are made
in brocades and silks to match the
small fan within.
For instance, a white lace fan with
a design of lace roses studded with
pearls, is inclosed in a white lace bag,
also sewn with pearls and tied with
silk ribbons. Another pretty design is
the flower fan. 1t is held in a white
satin bag embroidered with flowers,
and is entirely formed of blossoms
little rambling roses, forget me nots,
white violets or wall flowers.
Tiny feather fans are inclosed in
white brocade bags bordered with
feather trimming, and one of the
prettiest presents for a girl is a little
swansdown fan in a swansdown bag.
Hand painted fans are the most
popular" the manager of a west end
shop explained, but they are very
closely followed in order of popularity
by hand embroidered designs. The
amount of work that is put into these
little trif1es is extraordinary, whole
scenes being worked.
"Peacocks' feather fans are really
the most artistic. but so many people
will not have these, as they are con-
sidered unlucky."

ASSERTS PROPERTY
TAX IS NOT FAIR
Member of the State Board of
Equalization Argues Before
Commonwealth Club

In an address delivered before the
Commonwealth club at its regular
meeting and luncheon at the ST. Fran
els hotel yesterday on the manner in
which California's taxes are equalized
J. Harry Scott. member of the state
board of equalization, came out in
direct opposition to the general prop
erty tax scheme.
The general property tax he said,
may have been sufficient for the
years ago, when the present constitu-
tion was adopted, but new conditions
have arisen in the industrial and COM
mercial world since that time. When
we assume that all classes of prop
erty are assessed equally under the
general property tax, simply because
the revenue laws contemplate that they
shall be. we are greatly in error. This
system has been condemned by numer-
Gus experts and for good reason
Scott maintained that under this sys-
tenn the burden falls upon the owners
of real property on account of the al
most universal tendency to secrete per-
sonal property.
In another portion of his address he
pointed out that since 1891 the assess
ment of San Francisco had increased
lis per Acent. that of Los Angeles
county 11h per cent and Alameda
county 20 per cent. During these years
there was no county. apart from San
Francisco, which had its assessment
increased more than 90 per cent.
