In order that the derive ma he convenientl .ittlll't'tl to the hair or elothing of :t wearer. a U-Hll2tl)ttl fastening pin l3 is protitled \\'l|l('lt is pirotull) su 'iported by a pair oi ears 1) preterahtv l'ornied integral with the hod portion 11 and projeeting from the oppmite side thereof from the elaspingz; ling-em. Lot-atoll adjaeent the end of the hotly portion opposite to the ears I) are two hoolw e. \\'ltlt'll are also preferably formed integral with the body portion. The free end of the pin l3 are adapted to he reniovahly engaged with the hooks I after the pin has, hut-n in erted through the desired wnpport therefor.

l indicattm a how made of ribbon the ventral lt'not oi \\'lll('l\ is inserted between the linigem so as to he surrounded by them with the points on the lingers pressed into the ltnoti in the mannur shown in Fig. it will, of course. he ohserred that my improved devit-e may he used for holding other articles of ornament than rihhon hows.

When a rihhon is to he supported by my improved derive. it is lit'st tied into a how of the desired six and sltttpt after wliieh the knot of the, how is pressed het ween the ends of the (limping lingers into the space formed o the lingers and lH)(l portion ,of the de- \ltt. The deviee with the how may then. he readily attaehed hy meam of the pin It.

The material of whieh the deviee formed is irel'eralily ot' snllieient resiliency to permit the lingers to he delleeted stillir-it-ntly to permit the insertion and ,removal oi" the sn 'iported article.

From the foregoing description it will be ohs -r\'ed. that l have invented an improved device whit-h will permit the convenient. attachment ot a how or an'article 0f ornal1ttS!- tl!"\' to tie and nntie the how each time it is used.

l. claim:

A device for holding a ribbon how or the like and detaehahlr supporting thesame upon a wearer. eomprising a hody portion made of sheet metal and spaced pairs of )ltl\\:tttll liowed resilient lingers formed integrally with the body portion and extendin g uptrar llr from the opposite edges thereof, the fingers in each pair terminating adjacent and opposite each other to form a 1 restricted space between each pair for the insertion of the bow and provided with inwardly and downwardly projeeting pointed ends for engaging and preventing the removal of the inserted bow, and means for detachably securing the device to a wearer;
