ORIGIN OF THE HAT BAND.
London Daily Mail

London Daily Mail.
Wilired Webb, at a meeting OF the
Windsor and Eton Scientific aud Arch
geological Society last night, spoke in
terestingly OF the evolution OF dress.
From prehistoric drawings il would
appear, be said, that our early ances-
tore were clothed with hair and had
little necessity for artificial covering
Judging from primitive races at the
present Gay, clothing was not first
adopted as a protection from the
wea theT.
DUST as the zoologist learns much
concerning the ancestry Of animals
from the little features which survive
in their bodily structure, so can the
history of dress be evolved. Starting
with the hat, it was shown that the
hat band can be traced to tillet which
held in shape a simple piece of cloth.
Sometimes this fillet was tied in bow
behind, the tails Of which survive in
the Scotch cap, the sailor hat and the
bishops mitre.
A little bow inside in the lining Of
the hat is a survival Of laoing which
kept the lining In shape, or possibly
takes US back TO a time when a hat
was made by putting q string through
holes in a fiat piece of leather, and,
by Tightening il, producing a crown.
The plumes in hats are on the left side
because in early times the adornments
were so big that they would have seri-
ously interfeTed with the use of the
sword il worn on the right. The he'll
met Of the fireman ia practically iden-
tlcsl with those worn by the ancient
Greeks.
The large white collar, such as Mil
ton wore, is still in a smaller form
worn by the cleTgynlen who preach in
Geneva gowns and by Bluecoat boys.
Buttons on coat sleeves point to a time
when coats we're veiy costly, and it
was necessary TO turn back the sleeves
80 that they should net be soiled.
Mr.. Webb also discussed the origin
of the two buttons on the back of the
coat, and said that he could find no
satisfactory reason why in European
countries the buttons on men s
clothes should be always on the right
side and those Of women on the left.
The possible connection between the
ornamentation on modern boots and
the open work shoes OF the Romans
was pointed out. The fact that a
o'clock" means a "gusset' suggested
that the ornamentation which we know
by the former name may have been
originally intended to hide the Joins
IN sticking when il was made from
pieces Of cloth.

WHAT HARM QUA THOUGHTS MAY OO.

enyious or revengeful thought, hatred
and anger are all going out constantly
from many a mind on deadly missions.
Servants have actually been made
dishonest by other persons perpetually
holding the suspicion that they were
dishonest. This thought suggests dis
honesty to the suspected perhaps for
the first time, ana being constantly
held takes root and grows, and bears
the fruit Of theft. The old proverb.

DUKE BECOMES AN ELK.

Philadelph North American.
Duke, the elephant, is to become an
Elk. On the face of it, this is a para
dox Of pnradoxes; but tue bald state
ment doesn't necessarily imply that
Duke Is to don pair OF antlers and
cultivate the agility of the graceful
deer OF the Northern forests. When
Jacob Hope advertised that he had an
elephant on his hands without a taker,
William Super, Jr.. of the Philadel-
phiA Lodge Of the Elks, came to the
Dealers rescue by bidding in the pachy
derm 10 use as a mascot Of the Phila-
delphia Elks at the coming convention
In Denver. Duke went for a rather
reasonable figure, since the dealer was
considering the Rdvisability of killing
him and selling the carcass.

to the Wilmington Geological Associa-
tion.
