SACHET THAT FITS THE HAT
Latest Idea of the Dainty Woman Certainly Has a Good Deal to Recommend It- " The soft breeze blew the elusive perfume of her hair in his face." Ah. how romantic! So much so that you find many a maiden surreptitiously perfuming her tresses by means wonderful to behokl and still more wonderfully coned :ted. But the dainty
woman realizes that her hair might just as well have a pleasant odor as to suggest oil and perspiration, and the following suggestion for a hat sachet will not go amiss. It is a little round pad just the size of the usual hat crown, and it contains a piece of cotton into which has been baked in a very cool oven a bit of one’s own elusive perfume. Be most sure that it is “elusive," for no one would care to have their fellow men and women going around with puckered noses wondering what one has under her hat. The covering of the sachet ~iay be of natural-colored or plain white linen cross-stitched in a simple design. A crochet edge will add much to its beauty and a crochet ring at two sides will gfve a place for safety pins which are used to hold the pad in place under the crown. Pin a sachet in your new Sunday bonnet and have your hair perfumed whije you wait —or pray.
