Words cannot portray the excellent
time the four hundred pottery and mill

Masks.

In the seventeenth century masks
were commonly worn. Ladies who had
red lips preferred them short, as was
natural. For others, the mask was
completed by chinpiece of linen,
which afterward passed under the chin
and over the ears. In 1882 new mask
called the mimi" from the Italian
"mimies, was all the rage and threat
ened to usurp the place of the black
one; it was even the cause of violent
quarrels between the ladies who held
the latter and those who preferred the
latest novelty. Some years later it be-
came the fashion to trim the upper part
Of the mask with a ruche of lace, to
lengthen it with beard of the. same
and even to cover it more or
less with lace to the borders of the eve.
holes. Young ladies of this period,
however. frequently contented them
selves with covering the face with
piece of black Grape for coquetry's sake
and to appear the fairer.
