Pocket Again.

On one or two of the new blouse models the waist is furnished with a useful little pocket placed on the left side of the chest and, thanks to our golfing sisters, the skirt of the ordinary walking costume Is now often supplied with a similar, though larger receptacle. Necessitated in the case of the golfer by the need of carrying balls, it has been adopted by her less athletic sisters .as a means of carrying handkerchiefs, “penny purse," etc. By ‘penny purse” is meant that in which just the necessary small coins for fares, etc., are deposited, that containing more important moneys being much more safely tucked away, either in a hidden pocket or in the usual bag, without which very few women are to be seen nowadays.
