FLOWERS FASTENED TO FAN

Distinctly New Place Found for the Bunch of “Futurist” Blossoms Just Now in Such Favor. A new place has been found for the distinctive Junch. of futurist flowers. They have been used at the corsage, on the hat, at the belt and on the neck rftff. Behold them now fastened pertly to net, lace or ivory fan. They are effective, too, the gaudy, stiff flowers, against the dainty white fan. They are generally caught about the stems to the outside stick of the fan, and one of the flowers is fastened securely in place farther along the stick. Arranged in this manner they do not interfere with the opening and shutting of the fan. The woman who can use a paint brush can make a futurist fan of a different sort by decorating a net or lace fan with spots and blotches of brilliant color, ceMse, orange, purple and bright green, in oil paints. Such a fan, further trimmed with a bunch of flowers emphasizing the colors already used, is worth possessing.
