Antiquity Of tn. Umbrella.

No one knows whether the umbrella
was originally used as defense against
i lin or screen from the sun, but 1t
seems probable that the first umbrellas
were sunshades. In countries where
very little clothing is worn rain does
not make much difference. but the sun
ia power. Why shouldn't the palm
leaf be the first sunshade, with its ribs
and handles to order7 It hints at the
umbrella as well as the fan.
Travellers among the Amos OF Japan
often make temporary sunshades of
gigantic dock leaves, which are some
times six feet high, large enough for an
account of CULVER The umbrella
has very great antiquity. The word
itself means a little shadow" showing
that it was named for its protection
from the sun in this case. Horace says,
Among the military standards the sun
haholds an Egyptian canopy. Irish

Ranquets and Dinners.

Styling public dinner a banquet
is something of mistake; that is, Il
the use OF the word banquet" is to add
more dignity to the occasion, or even
to be more uppish or bumptious or
'toplofty. banquet, from the
French and Spanish, means a small
bench. little seat. and when spelled
banqueta means three legged stool
1t has reference to sitting while eating,
instead of taking refreshInent in stand
up fashion. AZ at one of our Wistar
parties or at n free lunch counter. The
truth is that banquet" Is simply a
grandiose expression and
somewhat affected. Philadelphia

gently through the haze
Which wells the Indian Summer in the fad
ing Autumn days,
and the good year fingers softly, ere his
locks are crowned with gray,
To hear the harvest blessings of nation by
the way,
There's an air of invitation in the woods and
fields and skies
To get ready for Thanksgiving and its fam
ous pumpkin pies.
The President and Governor have issued
each his call
To the people OF this prosperous land to
honor, one and all,
The season when the barns are full, the
granaries well stored.
When the farmers and the city folk all
count fattened horde,
Aud t.e housewife town and country, with
Thanksgiving in her eyes,
Fegins to think of turkey and cld-fashioned

they've naueht to bless.

Whose parse is never filled at all, whose

Revived After a Long Period Of Retire
ment.
1t is satisfactory to find that fashion
has at last brought in a reasonable cov-
ering for the head to which the most
fastidious lady would find it difficult to
take exception. The old beaver hat has
come in again, and bids fair to rival
most of the other head-covcrings, wheth-
er in the form of bonnet or hat; for, in
deed, beaver is n material hat admits
of being nodded into almost any shape
Or form, and remolded time after time
when it has been seen sufficiently often
on any individual head to make it dis
tasteful. The particular suitability Of
beaver in this or that design. or in this
or that color, for this or that configura-
ton of face or tint of complexion. is
not a matter we are much concerned
with, though W. see no reason why it
should not be adapted to any require
ments: but it is with the material rs a
healthy hea~d-covering, either during
che approaching Indictment period of the
year or during finer weather even, hat
we interest ourselves.
For years past ladies have been led
by fashion to display entire disregard
to the elementary principles which
should guide them in this respect, for
it may be said that they have not
adopted any cal head-covering either
for themselves or their daughters
While we avow, on the one hand, that
we are in no way Indifferent to the ele-
giant appearance of the fair sex. and
not desire to detract from their f~ascina-
tons, we. on the other hand, know of
so many lamentable results in sickness
and suffering that we can not fail to
impress on those of our readers who
have reasonable influence over their
lady patients las most successful prac-
titioners havel that they now have a
favorable opportunity of calling the at
tention of their fairer patients to the
hygienic improvements this autumn is
likely to bring about in the material
for ladies' hats and bonnets.-London
