ART IN ARRANGING FLOWERS
Add the Distinctive Touch, So Much
Desired, to the Individual
Costume.

Those who have been fortunate
enough to travel. and have done sc
with observant eyes. will have noticed
that women OF different nationallties
have each some special adornment OF
article OF attire which they alone
seem to know how to wear to per.
fection. For instance. the Spanish
woman can wear her shawl to the best
advantage in multiplicity OF ways
while other women merely use 1t as
a wrap, and 1t has been said that only
a French woman can tie bow.
When 1t comes to the question Of
wearing flowers. the girls in south.
ern Europe and the bellies Of the
South Sea Islands run each other very
close for the distinction Of best know.

Tartan faces the cuffs and forms the

reversible one, with a surface that is
either plain. mixed or indefinitely
