of dress accesSories-all those pretty
furbeLows, essentials and nonessentials,
that make up the bulk of Christmas
gifts. Our minds are directed to gloves,
handkerchiefs, neckwear, girdles, belts,
bags and jewelry that are strewn, like
stars in the sky about the shops and
undertake to be fascinating as well as
more or less useful.
Just now the one item that has out
distanced all rivals Is the gayly-colored
frivolous little square of chiffon, or
georgette, with picot edge, that is held
to the wrist by bracelet of very mar
row ribbon. The ribbon is finished with
gilt ring at one end and provided
with gilt slide through which the
other end slips. The small make-be-

center and drawn little way through
the ring, where it haunts its fragile
daintiness i'll any color one may choose.
