Hovers Over Rose.
Initial embroidered handkerchiefs of sheerest linen have barred and fancifully edged borders and the letter framed in a wreath, medallion or floral semi-circle. A new fancy represents a butterfly hovering over a rose, with the tiny initial worked between the insect’s outspread wings and the blossom’s foliage. Glove handkerchiefs for shopping are a third smaller than the ordinary size and made chiefly of fine lawn in white bordered with a color or a color bordered with white. They rarely are embroidered, but occasionally are seen with a small initial woven into one corner.
