Evening Republican, Volume 18, Number 15, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 17 January 1914 — Silk-Covered Hairpins. [ARTICLE]

Silk-Covered Hairpins.

A clever invention just placed on sale is a hairpin, three-quarters covered with woven silk, with the points heavily enameled. The covering is put on so smoothly you cannot tell where silk leaves off and enamel begins.

The hairpins come in seven shades of brown, in black or white, in different sizes, and sell at five cents a dozen. They are scarcely visible when in the hair, the covering prevents rust and slipping out of the hair.
