Today, we prefer the plain‘ white dis ‘ posable variety â€" hygenic but ‘ hardly a thing of beauty. _ In the days of lace and silk hankies, it was fashionable to carry them for all .to admire. Back in the 14th century the hanky was actually as precious as a jewel King Henry the Fourth of France possessed only two because of the enorâ€" mous cost of the rich materials and elaborate lace. Hardly ‘useful objects since most of them were not washable. But nevertheless, among the elite, they were very popular adornâ€" ments for ceremonial occaâ€" sions. tyz Alth o ug h these "show" pieces re : made of finest linens a.d silks it isn‘t likely that they could compare to today‘s variety for gleaming whiteness. Before the introâ€" duction of chemical bleaches, cloth was . sunbleached _ or boiled in ~water but the proâ€" duct was by no means white. The development of about 2,000 synthetic dyestuffs and improvement in the printing process has resulted in an inâ€" finite variety of color for printed han d kerchiefs unâ€" known in the days of the luxâ€" 71.95 Reg. 9.95 to 14.95 TO CLEAR Regular These Include JMMER SHOES THE WATERLOO (Ontario) CHRONICLE ury hanky. . ; But the sophisticated role of the hanky was only temporary. Towards the éend of the 17th century it was doomed to a life of usefulness. At this time snuff â€" taking was. popular. Snuffâ€"takers simply had to use their hankies to keep from staining their clothes. In fact, it was this habit that led to the printed kind for they did< n‘t show the stains as much as the white ones. â€" The 17th century hanky was used also as a charm against disease. It was believed. that you could get rid of a cold by tying a coin into one‘s hanky and throwing it away. The unâ€" lucky person who was foolish enough to pick up the castâ€"off hanky picked up the cold with it â€" so it was believed, and he probably did, too. Somewhat the same idea we have today â€" "don‘t put & cold in your pocket". And to carry it out, chemistry has provided us with disposable celluâ€"cotton tissues that are thrown away after use, Hankerchiefs have seen aA few changes since the days they ranked ‘with jewels. But elegant or useful, they are not forgotten. For seldom would you find a woman‘s purse or a man‘s pocket without a hanky ready for that unexpected sneeze. * j * COUNTY JUDGE MAKES PROFIT FOR PROVINCE IMPAIRED FINE Waterloo last year, the annual report of the Inâ€" spector of Legal Offices for Ontario shows. Most of the revenue is from fees paid for probate of estates and wills, citizenship fees paid by â€" newlyâ€"naturalized Canaâ€" dians, fees for registration of liens and chattel mortgages. "Surplus" Money . "Surplus" cash turned over to the province by adjoining Wellington county was â€"$14,â€" 956.64 last year Only York, Wentworth and Carleton counâ€" ties turned in more "surplus" cagh than Waterloo County. Last year judiciary offices of this county turned over to the provincial treasury $46,â€" 577.52, after spending $33,â€" 869.27 on expenses. A Kapuskasing magistrate recently fined a man one dolâ€" lar for each year of his age for impaired driving. Apparently his theory was that the older a man is the more reason he should know better. _ There has been no indication that Magistrate Barron intends to apply the same yardstick here.
