Concerning Gloves

The style of dress for ceremonial 90
casions have undergone several marked
changes within . few years. The aris-
tocracy and people of family in England,
for NO other reason that we can see than
because Mrs. Mushroom Shoddy, and
Mrs. Greengrocer, and Mrs. Tallov
Chandler had rs much money to spend
IS they, and could initiate them in cost
~ attire and ornament, introduced a
marked innovation upon the style of
dress for weddings and parties. Gloves
were omitted, the fair white hand of the
real lady and gentleman" thereby
making noticeable contrast to the
stubby red member of the plebian par
ties who initiated them. The plainest
morning suits were chosen instead of
full dress, that the difference in manner
and carriage might be the more strong
ly marked.
This fashion was soon adopted here.
In the most elegant circles gentlemen
appeared without gloves, carried opera
hats to parties and balls, wore frock
coats, red cravats, and lavender-colored
pantaloons for full-dress parties End re-
ceptions, and many stylish weddings
were celebrated where the lady, other
wise in full bridal attire, had bare hands,
and the groom was dressed as if he was
just going to the races. At balls the
same fashion was introduced, and we
have seen the full imprint of many .
bare. sweaty hand on the back Of light
silk Of exquisite hue, where the lady had
received this mark from tho gentleman
who had been her partner in the waltz.
The first to rebel against this custom
was the society 1t Washington. The
wives aud daughters Of the Senators and
Judges put their heads together and
voted the fashion vulgar and unbecom-
ing. Since then there has been = de-
cided reaction against it everywhere;
and, although it is adhered to by some,
the more dignified and sensible of those
who give tone to society throughout the
country have gone back to nearly the
full dress of the previous order. At the
same time the stiff rule having once
been broken, there is more independence
than formerly in attire on ceremonial
occasions, and people of standing are
allowed without severe criticism to con-
suit their own tastes and preferences as
to style and detail.-Net0 York Journal
of Commerce.

THE shrewd farmer wanted to Ike

The shrewd farmer wanted to keep
people from fishing in his trout pond,
but he didn't care to go to the expense
of bring a man to watch it. So he gave
one man the sole right to fish there, and
the latter was so jealous of his privilege,
the desire to be hog came out so strong
in him that he'd run his legs off to chase
en- intruder away, and was kept so busy
doing so that he didn't catch enough fish
himself to amount to q tinker's maledic
ton
