A sentimental wave has overtaken fashion. Women now literally wear their hearts on their sleeves—made of fur. Hats and gowns are perfumed. You can spray the padding in the newest hatpins and dress-clips with your own scent. For evenings, too, you can increase your femininity by wearing little frilled tulle caps, which serve as a chignon.

A striking feature of the women’s fashions at a recent race meeting al Flemington, Melbourne, was the craze for match-sun glasses with frocks. Women with brown and cream frocks wore brown glasses set in crean rims. A youthful racegoer in a bright blue and white spotted frock sheltered her eyes under blue glass rimmed witn white. Another girl, in blue and pink, wore dark glasses with pink rims.

Nurse Anderson, who offered her assitance to the doctors on the Monowai when an urgent call was received from Lord Howe Island, was a former resident of Dunedin (states the “Otago Daily Times.”) After she had completed her nursing training in Christchurch she left for Australia and she has held many important positions in hospitals there. Nurse Anderson is now the owner and director of a private hospital at Surry Hills, Melbourne. She was accompanying a patient to Auckland on the Monowai when it made the emergency deviation. She intends to visit Rotorua and several sanatoria throughout the Dominion before returning to Australia next month.
