We always had a nicely embroidered or lacy one for show or extreme emergency. Most guys wore them in the breast pockets of their suits and another in their trousers back pocket.
Let’s talk about hankies

My grandmother always had a rose-scented hanky tucked away handily in her bra. In church, one of us would be sniffling and out would come the hanky to be applied to the offending nose.
Every time I smell rose sachet, I get a warm feeling thinking about how my grandma was always prepared for all contingencies....

Men seem to be more involved with hankies than women. Maybe it's the breast pocket on their jackets?
Ronni's idea of carrying around a small piece of cloth for various uses is a good idea-but I would never blow my nose in it.
I recall being gifted with pretty, little-girl hankies as a child, but they always "disappeared".
Mom always provided plenty of tissues in the house, car and her purse.
