stripes being satin finish and the spaces be- 
tween of a dull rayon which makes the design

taffeta weave, and the wide center is of a 
pebble-weave effect with ample space for 
lettering. This item is manufactured pur- 
posely for good work and makes a_ very 
beautiful bow that will stand out. It is not 
waterproof but has proved water-repellent

funeral work. We highly recommend this 
pattern as it makes a much nicer bow than 
satin ribbons. Price, $3.00; 12-piece lots,
