When tho snow flics, little Miss Up-to-date takes her fan in hand even as she dons fur in the August swelter. She would as soon think of going to opera or ball fun less as manless. And what fans! Fine' feathers certainly make fine fnus andj fans of a feather flock together thisj season as never before. But they don't open and shut togeth er as much as they used to, for tho very newest form of feather fan is as old as the Queen of Shoba and consists of a: gorgeouB cluster of ostrich plumes poised on a singlo stick of sawed ivory, i amber or tortoise shell. j Tho most vivid hued ostrich plumes j aro used and bright purplo, yellow, green or blue, they make an effective j high light of color for any costume. The white at black feather funs seem , still to cling to tho open and shut model with their sticks of tortoise shell or amber usually gold inlaid or gem encrusted. Ostrich feather fans still open nnd shut al?o but they aren't quite on the level either. Instead of forming tho orthodox, symmetrical semi-sphere of a fan, they begin stubby and low down on one side and work up gradually to their highest point on tho opposite side. Peacock feather fans are the most fancied of fantastic fans. They como either in tho open nnd shut model or in. the one stick effects. The latter aro stunning and oriental on long, carved, handles of gold inlaid ivory hand carved, or jade. . - Behind the many glowing eyes In the peacock's tail feathers, you can But ex pect a fair maid to make more eye Nor is it surprising that she should be much eyed.
