Arortunate People.

The American people are descended
from, economically, the most effect
i've race in the world. They settled
in the States, taking with them a
highly developed civilization and
habits of law and order confirmed
through many generations. They
have half continent at their COM
mand, there is even yet a vast
amount of unoccupied soil, there is
diversified climate, there are re-
sources almost hmitless, and there is
absolutely no enemy they have cause
to fear. Except to MAINTAIN internal
order they are free at this moment to
disband their army and navy, certain
that no foreign foe will attack them
The world has never seen a people so
happily circumstanced, with such
marvellous opportunities for progress
and Improvement. London Statist.

The Development Of Pants.

While there have been many changes
in the styles of coats and waistcoats,
trousers have come down to the present
not greatly changed. Diodorus Siculus
says of the Belize Gauls that "they wore
close trousers, which they called brac-
cae." The Roman invasion brought bare
legs to Britain, and the braccae of the
Gauls were discarded for the new order
Of things. When the Romans took leave
and were succeeded by the Saxon, the
braccae was compromised by style of
short drawers reaching half way down
the thigh and stockings coming up to
meet them. The drawers were called
breech or hose.
The time of Elizabeth saw the cover
ing Of mans leg develop into a con-
spicuous part of the attire of gentle
man. The cavaliers wore what were
termed the petticoat breeches, and knee
breeches followed the absurd petticoat
pattern. Trousers for infantry were in
troduced into the British army Sept. 12,
1912, while cues and pigtails disappeared
by general order July 20. 1sOs.-Wash-
