TATTOOING CRAZE
IN LONDON.
Lovers Who Have Been Severed by
War Now Wear Indelible Remind
ers Of Their Sweethearis on
Their Arm S.

One effect of the South African war
is seen in the fact that London has
gone crazy over tattOOing. Not only
have people of humble station resorted
to this method of keeping the absent
ones in mind, but the craze has eX-
tended into the ranks of the aristoc-
racy, so that now these indelible tokens
of the existence of brave sweethearts
grace the arms OF hundreds Of young
women of title.
1t would be a mistake to say that the
fad Of tattoOing was due entirely 70 the
present war. Despite all civiliZfng in
fuences and the refining tendencies Of
modern education, these body dccora-
tons that were so common among the
savages have continued to appeal TO
men and women in all walks and t
lions of life.
The present general revival of this
craze was inaugurated by the aristo-
cratic and titled young men who were
called to duty at the front. They de-
cided that it would be but right that
they should carry with them some in
destructible token of some fair ones
affections, and SO they placed them
selves in the hands of the tattooer.
Naturally they felt a desire TO ey-
hibit this specimen of a unique art to
the fair one in question. and, just as
naturally, it followed that she, too, de-
cided hat she would wear a similar
reminder of the brave lad who Vas
fighting for his country in the South
of Africa. 1t takes but a breath to
fan a craze TO life, and the present fad
is about as general rs any h a has
been seen in London for many a day.
THE INSCRIPTIONS.
1t would De a interesting as il WOulG
be amusing if one could know just
what inscriptions have been placed up
on the arms of certain y"ung men and
women who are prominent III Euro
pean society, but thc pTofaS si0nal tat

inform the interviewer as to the iden-

h designs selected by the women
differ little from those chosen by the
men. There are initials and dates.
there are the two hearts Joined by the
arrow of Cupid, and there are crests
and sometimes warlike emblems that
seem strangely out of place on the fair
