Queer Color Names,

People wear vesuvius red now, and
elephants breath. london smoke, tabac,
crushed raspberry and strawberry and
robins egg blue and other shades, but
fashionable folks of old wore colors
with names more odd sounding still.
Innocent infant was once favorite COL
or, and captain 9 glory, also a sad drab
color known as penitent hermit. A
gown of caterpillar brown might be
adorned with trimmings of canary tail.
A strong gray, blended with purple,
was dubbed lively flea, and, whereas
there is now break Of day pinks, MILL
ners of o century ago trimmed poke
bonnets with ruchings of thought of the
beloved one and quillings of does belly.
A court beauty in the time Henry w
Of France affected a color known as
mortal sin, and it came to be the rage
forthwith. and common harm was an
other popular fancy for stomachers and
petticOats.
One subtle, barely limited at shade
was christened stifled sigh. Dead alive
was another anomalous color greatly in
favor IN Marie Antoinette's time, most
of these out Of the way and rather un-
decided shades being chosen by women
whose dainty coloring needed only an
unCbtrusive background to bring it into
relief.-New York Sun.
