ARMY INFLUENCE ON FASHIONS

HOW many men-or women either, for that
matter-who wear spats are aware of the
military origin of those details of attire? SpatS
were originally worn because the Highland
regiments at Lucknow wore them, and SO
great was the popularity of these regiments by
reason of their gallant deeds, that men, women,
and children in England adopted all sorts of
details in the matter of dress in imitation of
Highland uniforms. Among these were spats,
and, though they serve useful purpose
they have been held in public favor ever since
the days of the Lucknow Highlanders.
In very much the same way puttees have be-
come popular Before the late war with Spain
and the recent conflict between Great Britain
and the Beers, when troops were first provided
with putteeS, one IN civil life thought of
wearing these leg coverings; but nowadays
one in every three pairs of leggngs seen are
made more or less after the style of puttees.
The cutaway form of the morning coat, and
also the dress coat. comes from the army.
Somewhere in the reign of George w. the long
coat introduced into the army. 1t was
soon found that the sword having to be worn
under the coat made marching uncomfortable
and ungainly, and it became the practice to
turn the ends of the skirt of the coat up and
fasten them behind the back The buttons
men have at the back of their coats survive
from the Sword buttons" In time the long
coat was curtaied; but the practice of fasten
ing back the corners of the skirt remained
until the dandies of the day were inspired by it
and had their coat skirts cut away till some
thing like the modern morning coat was OBJ
tanned The swallowtal quickly followed, and
to this day has remained correct evening dress
1t is surprising to learn that of the most
generally recognized patterns for mems sleeves
should have been adopted in imitation of mill
tary fashion when it was introduced into the
ranks to check disagreeable habit then
mon among men.
The two buttons adjoining the cuffs of most
mems sleeves are as purposeless anything
could we'll be- but they were placed on soldiers
sleeves to prevent the enlisted men using their
cuffs in lieu of handkerchief, as it was found
that the cuffs of the uniforms became shabby
and soiled long before the rest of the tunic
showed signs of wear.
The custom of wearing bands of Grape on the
sleeve is also derived from the army, wherein
it being of course, impracticabe to provide
uniforms in anything like the nature of mourn
ing attire

AS TO RED NOSES [,

"The Secrets of Beauty and Mys- teries of Health,'' is the attractive title of new book by Mrs. Cora Brown Pot ter. It is packed full of wisdom of a kind, and loaded to the gunwales with prescriptions warranted to restore and preserve eternal youth to the most an- cient, crumbling and decrepit individ- ual.
 Mrs. Potter-and this is important, if true-assures us that it is wrong to at tribute red noses to overindulgence in alcoholic stimulants. Indeed, she finds that red noses are more frequently caused by cigarette smoking than John Barleycorn. Taking wide and thor oughly comprehensive view of the situ- ation, Mrs. Potter concludes that the average carminc proboscis is the pro duct of indiscretions in diet, but not in variably, or even frequently, such in discretions as are associated with intem- perate consumption of ardent spirits,
 Mrs. Potter's line of reasoning is cal culated to bring joy to many hearts in this land, we think. Too long has red nose been accepted as prima facie evi- dence against parties indicted by popu- lar opinion as tiplers. It is not prob able that any one in this world ever acquired a red nose through choice oi deliberate effort. We doubt seriously that the arrival of the sunset tint was ever welcomed to the tip of any nose in this world by the owner of the tip itself. On the contrary, such humiliat- ing visitations are invariably accepted more in sorrow than in anger; looked upon as badges of dishonor and signs of depravity not always deserved.
 Hereafter, persons whose noses incline to redness, but whose consciences are clear and void of offense, may read Mrs. Potter's book and be consoled. Against sinister suspicion it is veritable bull wark of defense; in the face of distress ing accusations it will stand friend firm and true. It places the wearer Of red nose not acquired by bibulous habits beyond the pale of criticism or innuendo. It enables the afflicted to bear their burdens with fortitude and patience.
 Wherefore, we would say Mrs. Potter has rendered a distinct service to man. kind in writing 'The Secrets of Beauty and the Mysteries of Health" Her be- nign and well-intentioned effort should not go mrewarded. She should be ac- corded warm place in the heart of every person in the land bowed down beneath the sorrow of red, red nose.

THE AMERICAS CUP.

We have got the Americas cup, and we have held it honorably for years against all competition. It stands for the championship, the international championship, in yachting, and there is probably no more coveted prize in any range Of sportsmanship. There has been no race for it for some years, not since Sir Thomas Lipton tried for it with his Shamrock III; and though there has been some talk of the German Emperor competing for it, it has been only talk, and the enc serious competitor for the cup is still Sir Thomas.
 We do not believe that the spirit of true sportsmanship in America is alto gether content or satisfied with the manner in which the cup-great prize that it isis being held by the New York Yacht Club. Its power to impose conditions under which the cup shall be raced for are practically unlimited, and though there are none of us that want to see the cup lifted, even by so gallant a gentlemen as Sir Thomas, there is a pretty general feeling, We be- lieve, that he, who has tried so bravely three times, should be given another chance. There still remain six weeks in which he can issue challenge for a race off Sandy Hook in August of 1909, and he only awaits an intimation from the New York Yacht Club that chal lenge if sent would be accepted.
 But he says that, though he is willing to challenge under the old rules, he is unable for love or money to find a de- signer willing to build a yacht under those freak rules. Boats like the three shamrocks are freaks, unsuitable for anything but racing, and all Sir Thomas asks is that the rules be so modified as to allow him to build yacht that will not only be able to sail herself across the Atlantic, but will be of some value as boat after the races are over.
 Nor is this an extraordinary request. | If the New York Yacht club wants Sir | Thomas to challenge again, all it has to do is to allow him to compete with yacht that shall comply with the uni | versal rules that now govern all yacht | racing in America, and it is hard to see why a special rule should be evoked even for the Americas cup. There is nothing in the deed of gift to prevent the New York Yacht Club from acced- ilg to Sir Thomas Lipton's request, and challenge under the universal rules might reasonably be expected to do something genuine and worth while to- ward increasing the speed of commercial sailing vessels-something that the con tests between the freak racers could never do.
 We have no fear of the result if the New York Yacht Club should drop it's conservative and somewhat unsports- manlike attitude, and by construing the rules literally, allow the Irish baronet to challenge. He has proved himself a good, clean sportsman, cheerful loser, a generous adversary, and one we'll worthy of our best efforts. He should be given another chance. He can't get freak boat built to race with-a boat that can serve no useful purpose. If he could, he would challenge, as in the old days. The American feeling on the subject is, we are sure, that he should be given a chance. What is needed is sane boat, staunch crew, a fair wind, and no favor-and may the best man winl ',
