WHITE AND BLACK CRAvATs.
In Former Times They Were Badges
of the Wearer's Profession.


of the Wearer's Profession.
From the Boston Transcript.
Years ago the white tie in this country
was the characteristic wear OF the rev.
erend clergy. their monopoly. Thence 1t
passed into general use and disputed pop
ularity with the black. The black neck
professional badge. Those who followed
the profession of arms claimed the right to
wear 1t as their monopoly, and sometimes
enforced that right. Cooper, in "Wing-and-
Wing" makes very dramatic use of this
custom. A French prfyateer captain in dis
guise has fallen into the hands of the
English, and is brought before q court
martial. So skillfully does he stick to his
assumed character of fisherman that his
judges are puzzled until one Of his ac-
cusers suddenly places around the pris-
cner's throat the black neckcloth which
all officers wore. Then his true character
blazes forth and he is condemned, but es-
capes execution to die sword in hand.
Cooper knew what he was writing about,
for ne, tCo, had been an officer.
Military and naval men wore black era
watts when in plain Clothes and civilians
aped them until black became the only
wear. Before the rise of the black cravat,
carelessly tied white lace, the Steenkirk,
had been in vogue for neckwear Its popu-
larity likewise was a civilian tribute to
military valor. At the battle of Steenkirl1
tne trencn Royal GUARDS, the Household
troops, being suddenly called from their
tents to meet the oncoming English, had
no time to tie their rich lace cravats with
tfeir accustomed neatness, and loosely
knotted them about their throats. They
were the dandies of Europe, the perfect
pinks of military propriety, and were cor
respondingly brave. They did up the Eng
lish in about one round, and thenceforward
the Steenkirk cravat was the fashion, and
the more carelessly it was knotted the more
Steenkirky it was.
AS white is now the color Of peace, may
not the psychologist be justified in hailing
snowy cravats as evidences of mans recog-
milton that peace hath her victories not
less fashionable than those of war and as
worthy Of being commemorated at the

AMERICAN WOMEN.
Described by Mr.. Hall Caine-Com.
pnrisOns With English Women.

pnrfsOns With English Women.
From the Providence Journal.
Mr.. Hall Caine says of his stay in the
United States: Many of my impressions of
America, by the way, toppled down like a
child's house Of cards when found myself
actually in the country and among the
people. A delightful nation to study is
America-fresh and frank and full Of orig
inality. OF course, we all know and have
always known, for the last century, at
least, that Americans are clever; but we
can't realize until we go among them and
see them in their homes how kindly, how
young of heart, they are as individuals"
OF American women in general he deems
'it Is only natural they should have be-
come what they are-superior, intellectual
ly, or, at any rate. specifically so, to the
men. That is of course, as a class. There
are always so many exceptions to every
rule. But the thing has come about as
consequence of mans putting woman
American man, American woman-on
pedestal and worshiping her. He has stay
ed below the pedestal and worked for her,
not having time, II he was the ordinary
man Of business, to cultivate his mind and
manner while he so worked. But she has
had plenty of time, and she has made the
best use Of it. In our country 1 consider
that the reverse is the truth. The average
Englshman is superior to the average Eng
lishwoman in intelligence and education.
That is because he is likely to think of
himself, and of his sons, before he thinks
of his wife and daughters. And English
women have conscientiously upheld him in
his attitude toward them, until compara-
lively lately, at any rate. In America, on
the contrary, 1 fancy that women have
known their own value, and set it rather
high, for a number of years-a couple of
generations, at least" In personal appear
ance Mr.. Caine finds our women ''prettier,
more attractive, more bewitching, than
English women, but not so regularly beau
tiful. the straight, almost Greek nose, and
the ineffably lovely and naughty upper
lip of the most perfect type of English
girl I have not seen equaled in America,
