"Drapers Dictionary" ii Is stated that
when men began TO carry umbrellas they
were hooted and jeered at as French
men" In the Female Tattler." Deem
Der IL, 1909. there is the following satirical
announcement:
The young gentleman borrowing the
umbrella belonging to Wits coffee-house,
In Cornhill, OF the mistress, is hereby
advertised that, to be dry from head 20
foot on the like occasion. he shall be
welcome TO the maids pattens.

well studied. 1t Is easily possible TO keep
within the lines OF special fashion and
still vary IL enough to suit Individual
needs. For instance, the waved side
locks. which fashion declares shall be
puffed out, may be arranged in varying
degrees OF fulness for round, oval, and
long faces. A round face looks less full
when the locks are disposed in a fluffy
fashion, and loose adjustment is entirely
suited to an oval outline, while the length
of a slender face is less marked when the
hair is more closely, though by no means
tightly, drawn back.
The parted bang very generally. though
not always wisely, worn until recently,
had gone the way OF all transitory things.
In it's stead reign the pompadour and the
coquettish temple curls, the former being

When vague rumors first got about that
Germany had formed the conception OF
establishing colonies in Africa the reports
were ridiculed by Lord Granville, then
Secretary Of State for Foreign Affairs,
on the ground that the Germans were not
a colonizing people, and It was evidently
felt by himself and his colleagues IN Mr.
Gladstones Government OF that day that
Germany was not, and never would, be-
come, serious competitor OF Great
Britain in any part OF the world outside
Europe. Owing 20 the prevalence OF this
opinion in the minds not only OF the
government OF the day. but OF most we'll

the now common rain and sun guard was
welded with the same grace and skill
as modern maids WELD the bespangled
fan. In China and Japan the umbrella,
which is very gay and ornamental. serves
as very potent weapon Of coquetry.

1t goes without saying that the hair
