Proof of this statement are the mustache cups collected by a man in California, the hatpin holders by a woman in Maryland and the Easter eggs belonging to a couple in Connecticut. The little ching holder for ° stickpins, shown in the ac- companying photo, is anex- ample of something that hasn't been used for years and may prove baffling to the person who finds it nowadays,. Most people have heard of, If not seen, hatpin holders which so many women owned and used during the 1890's and early 1900's. Obviously, this Ht- tle bolder isn't high enough to hold hatpins. %* % % This stickpin holder, on- ly 1 5/8 inches high, is por- celatn. It tapers and flares so that it is more thanl/2 inch narrower across the top than across the bottom. The solid ching top has a doz- en or so holes, a large one in the center and smaller ones around It.. At least two stickpins can be inserted in each small hole. The - decoration in tur- goise and gold against the white porcelain background Is almost jewel-like. - Gold encircles - each - raised dot that is covered with tur- quoise enamel. Some ofthem are enhanced with gold bead- Ing, as 19 the scalloped edge top and bottom of the con- tainer, and crisscrossed gold bands frame each bit of turquoise ghd gold. There is no doubt that this holder was used at one time, for the gold around the holes for stickpins is slightly worn. Appointed Harold F.

In the decades when stick- pins were worn to business as well as on social occasions, a man was likely to own quite an assortment. Most stick- pins were gold. The heads were - sometimes - in the shape of a fleur-de-lis or a knot and often were studded - with small pearks, opal, to- paz, garnet, moonstore and other semiprecious stones. some - heads were mother- of pearl, mosaic or enamel. For special occasions a small pearl or pear-shaped amethyst might be the deco- rative part of a stickpin. Women also wore stickpins on their blouses during the 1890's. The - small round | stickpin topped with a photo in a frame of gold rope, 5/8 inch in - diameter, | was given to a young lady by her fiance. It doesn't seem likely that stickpin holders were as generally owned by men as hatpin holders wereb, women. But they probably were made of chine and glass as were the hatpin holders which averaged 6 in- ches high. Both types of holi- ders were popular during the 1890's and early 1800's. starched white FASHION SPOT By Fran Chierico Let's step into the swing of things with Kath McBride of 12 Country Gable Circle, as she takes off for the College scene with this eight-buttoned double-breasted, wool pantsuit, with its multi-colored, bulky. knit, turtle neck shell.
