It’s not easy to pick-up the inevitable present for the woman of taste and discernment. We can be pretty sure that the average husband dreads the approach of birthdays and what-not when it comes to us. It might even be kind to drop a hint or two. Here’s a suggestion that might fit in with your ideas of what is jolly and at the same time useful. Tt is a new thing in umbrellas, about as light and attractive and unbothersome as one could wish. The length is cut down by the steels coming right up to a flat silver disc of handle, in the centre of which is a tiny ring and a cord loop for carrying. The whole is contained in a circular over-case of checked taffetas which zips neatly up the side. It is a gift worth receiving or giving.
