Evolution Of the Dude.

Muhlenburg Echo.
The following clipping from the
Republican, published at Hopkins
vile in 1921 will destroy the illusion
in the minds of many that the dude
is an entirely modern creation. The
dandy below described is evidently
the grandsire of our modern dude
History will show that since the Jim
Richardson era when our fore faith
ers surveyed tho landscape from the
tree tops and monkeyed around
through the forest for living" that
sporadic specimens of the dude have
appeared from time to time. Several
generations of staunch descendants
may pass, each step higher in de.
velopment, when some fine morning
the highest type may find itself af-
ter much labor and pains abed of a
dude, for dudes are born full grown.
They don't grow like the ordinary
individual to mans statue. There is
no guarding in the best regulated
families against the birth of dude.

a generation, but appears again when
least expected, like some foul disease.
Here is our ancestral dude:

~ Rect for making fourth proof
dandy.
Take brainless, beardless goslin
of boy, about eighteen years of age,
stuff him with nine ounces ofvariety,
twelve ounces of conceit, twenty five
pounds of pure pride, and three grains
of common sense, if his noddle will
bear il steep him five hours in tub
of liquid presumption then dry him,
dress him up in a bell crown hat with
an half inch brim; four neck cloths
and full pad about his throat tight
white jacket four inches long, a pair
of well braced corsots, short wasted
tight buttoned fantail frock coat
pair of large white bag trowsers, on
ly covering his breast, a pair of right
and left silt heeled boottees, a pair of
white kid gloves, well vanished
crooked cane, a cigar in his mouth,
and twelve inch watch chain with q
key and five seals. In the unfortu-
nate absence of real watch, a dumb
one, or a neat little hook in the fob,
viii answer every purpose.-IIaving
by this process completed the figure
brush 1t up, praise it, flatter il, turn
IL loose In the street, and there struts
the two legged animal called a fourt
proof Dandy, as large as Life.
