The evolution of the pocket handker- chief is odd and interesting. There was a time when it was an unmention- able thing—an article to be kept out of sight and ref d to only in a whis- per. In polite conversation it was care- fully avoided, and, as to one’s being caught using a handkerchief, it meant social ostracism. This state of things obtained up to the time of the first Napoleon, when the Empress Josephine brought it forward for a personal reason. The only defect in her beauty was an irregularity of the teeth, and to hide this she used a delicate little handkerchief, which from time to time she raised to her lips. Thus she was enabled to laugh occa- sionally. Seeing that it was a case of either laughter going out or handker- chiefs coming into fashion, the court ladies adopted the pretty pieces of cam- bric and lace. In England the evolution of the arti- ele which is now so openly displayed by women was equally slow. There mention it on the stage or to make use of it even in the most tearful situation. while the people in the gallery and the pit shed their tears into their laps. Even when it was mentioned for the first time in one of Shakespeare's plays | it was received with hisses and general | indignation by the audience. Little by | little, however, the prejudice gave way, }and a time came when the handker- chief could be flourished in broad day- light.
