HISTORIC RELICS.

Back to Teudal Times.
The general lack Of picturesqueness
(sabout the present day male attire is
Frequently lamented. yet how many
lpeople are aware that the average
Imam carries on his coat at least two
Historical relics, one Of which dates
Eback to feudal times?
This relic of the times of William
the Conqueror consists Of the two but
tons worn at the back of a morning
|2or frock coat. The buttons are, OF
course, useless for any practical pur-
pose, and inasmuch as they are cer-
tainly not decorative, you may nature
Tally ask what they are there for.
~ Sartorial historians now tell us that
these two buttons come down to us
from the sword bearing age. when
|sthey were placed at the back Of the
coat for the purpose of supporting a
Sword belt, which, together with the
sword, has long since been discarded,
Save by military men, the sole remain
Bin evidence of its existence being the
two buttons. Thus to this day they
remain on our coats as mute witnesses
eof the days that are gone.
The other historical relic which
3still survives in OUR modern coats is
the nick in the lapel.
81 Though you have been wearing
coats and waistcoats ever since child
hoods early days you have probably
never thought to inquire whether or
mot there is any reason why tailors
should continue to make this nick.
f. f. It is now recalled by sartorial eX-
E,perts that when Napoleon first felt the
sway of boundless ambition he tried
to implicate General Moreau in Piche-
greus conspiracy.
AS you will doubtless remember,
yMoreau had been the man Of destiny's
rival, and was an exceedingly popular
ssoldier, but in the circumstances. with
lie petit caporal in power, it was not
safe to publicly express sympathy
with Morcau. So it came about that
shis admirers and supporters secretly
agreed to nick their coat lapels to
sshow their fellowship, the outlines of
