A FASHION HINT

Last spring a furry of fashion
brought into vogue the stiff little
bows of color or black for shirtwaists.
They have been worn more or less
ever since. and have taken a fresh
hold on popularity through the small
hearts of rhinestones which are
placed in the centre of each bow.
These are called Peg o My Heart
bows. Others contrived on the same
plan are of pearls-two threadlike
pearl bands through which the rib
bon runs, and a small pearl ball
head sticlpin thrust through from the
side. These are called "Robespierre
bows. Both are pretty and an i'm
