Head-dress of Norwegian women.

The most common head-dreSs of the Nor
wegian women consists of a simple kerchief
of cotton, sometimes of silk, embroidered
at the corners. 1t is doubled, folded over
the head and tied under the chin In sunny
weather it is allowed to project over the
forehead so as 10 shield the face from .i.'
sun. The corner, which hangs dow
hind, shows the embroidered patteii
protects the neck and the back of the h,i
In the neighborhood of Bergen, howcrt
more elaborate head-dresses are seen. 4:
patterns are various, but they are all mo,
or less picturesque. In most cases thcy
consist of a crown of white dimity held out
by light or stiff board. Both the llerchief
and the red tapes by which it is tied hang
down the back almost to the waist. In
keeping with this is the blue bodice, worn
over white blouse, and held in its place
by red and yellow shoulder-straps. Still
more characteristic and imposing are the
bridal crowns worn in some parts of the
country, particularly in the Bergen prov
ince and III Thelemarken, where the prim-
tive customs of the country are still pre-
served, though in other parts they are rap
idly disappearing before the inevitable adj
vance of civilization. These crowns are
very elaborate, and, on the whole, uncom-
fortable-looking erections. They are pro-
flisely decorated with inexpensive gems,
but, tawdry as they often are, they are sa-
credly preserved as heirlooms, and are
proudly shown by their possessOrs to their
children and grandchildren as titles to
honor, if not nobility. Words.
