I cannot understand why some people say it is not in good taste to use them. I have read about some fashionable women hav- ing their own brand and always! using it. Please explain this DORIS. The odor of strong perfume is very offensive to some persons. but the chief objection is that perfume has become noticeable in public places in connection with painted faces and bold ‘ manners. Perfume, rightly used, t should seem to come from the dothing and the whole person, rather than to have been hastily applied on the outside. This ef. fect is produced by delicately perfumed sachet bags placed within one’s linen and other gar ments.
