19 18. A PRETTY HOW-DEDOO Merry Hull's evening mitts of sapphire blue velvet studded with twinkling silver stars. The wall of white kid that bisects the mitts exactly allows you plenty of room to wiggle your thumb and fingers. You've heard about the newest thing of all in gloves — "Finger Free" construction! Well, this is it — for around $4.00. 19. FOR THE GIPSY IN YOU A musical tambourine full of sachet balls — ribbon streamers, jingle bells and all! Inside the Cellophane circle are five shiny satin sachet balls to match the jolly gipsy trappings, in Orloff's three Russian gipsy perfumes, "Gardenia Russe," "Nikki," and "Carnation Imperiale." Perfect for Christmas — and much _ more expensive-looking than its modest price of just $1.00. 20. ROBIN HOOD'S MONEY BAG 21 Robin Hood's jingling money bag, copied by Lucien Lelong, in Sherwood green suede and bright red silk with red silk drawstrings. But in place of that beloved rascal's swag, Lelong has stowed away a Robin Hood Red lipstick, rouge, powder and a flask of Carefree Perfume. There's even a green felt Robin Hood hat with a bright green feather, to pin on your escort's lapel. The schoolgirl's delight S5.50. 21. "DANGER!" You can't frighten a •woman away from "Danger!" It's the best come-on we know! True, the high price limited it a little in the past. But for the future Santa sees only very rosy prospects now that Ciro has duplicated it for Christmas — crystal block-bottle and all — in an impressive $12.00 size. For the most exotic lady on your list! 22. HANKI-PURSE A girl who was always "going places" thought up this one! Because she was always dropping either her evening purse or her hankie. So she riveted them together permanently — a lovely chiffon evening hankie attached to a bracelet strap on her wrist, and underneath it all, a quilted satin evening pouch to match. Clever? There's room enough inside for make-up and madmoney — and a great relief to your beau, too, to have you tote your own! Around $3.00. 23. PERFECT GADABOUT A lady would as soon forget her toothbrush as her De Vilbiss traveling atomizer, the only way to tote your perfume on your travels! The 1 '/2-dram crystal bottle is as streamlined as the Twentieth Century and locks as tight as a drum. The bright leather traveling case condenses into next-to-nothing — and there you go — carrying your sweetness with you everywhere, for just $6.50. 24. LOOT FOR YOUR LOTHARIO For THE man in your life — Prince Gardner's de luxe leather accessories. A billfold with that wonderful slidingpocket classifier-feature that separates credentials, classifies currency and hides the big bills; a ' sliding card case; a flat but elegant inside pocket wallet for evening; and a zipper keycase with license-compartment.
