A writer in a French review points out that the handkerchief does not come to us from China, as has been generally supposed, but from Italy. It is only 300 years ago that the handkerchief of a'Venetian lady was considered a great curiosity. The handkerchief crossed the Alps and was received with great favour at tho Court of France. Hanlcerchiefs were then made of brie or lawn, and bordered with Venetian or Alencon lace. Under Henry 111. of France tho sachet was introduced. Tho handkerchief was taken into Germany a little later, and was known as the " faKelletiiij" after its Italian name. Only persons of quality used it, and an edict of 1595 was published at Dresden interdicting the use of tho handkerchief among the trader classes.
