The Shlrred Sleeves.

In this day Of mousquetaire sleeves
It is q problem how to make them
30 that they will look snirred and
yet be quite secure. Furthermore
when they are made Of wash net or
other washable fabrics 1t Is almost
impossible to launder them II they
are made In the usual way.
One clever woman has found that
the inside seam Of the sleeve may be
made like a French seam. through
which a tape may be run. The tape
should be a little longer than the
sleeve is when pulled out to Its full
length. The seam for the second
drawstring may be taken Up on the
outer side of the sleeve. and through
this also tape may be run. When
the Dress is worn the string may be
drawn up to the armhole until the
sleeve is the correct length and then
the cord may be tied up inside. When
It IL time to lcunder them the strings
may be united, the sleeves pulled out
TO their full length and the work thus
made easy.

Old-Time Hats
London Chronicle.


The hats of the Earl of HARRINGTON
could not have excited so much admira-
ton as that worn by Charles VII on his
triumphant entry into Rouen in the year
144S. THAT prince" we are told, aston
ished the phole city by appearing in a
hat lined with red silk and surmounted
by a plume of feathers" It was the
first time the citizens had ever seen a.
hat. From this entry of Charles In Rouen
the beginning of the custom of wearing
hats in Europe is dated. 1t was all very
well for the rich citizen to follow the ex.
ample of royalty, but when the clergy
began TO sigh for similar splendor it was
regarded as falling away from grace
Priests or religious persons were at last
forbidden to appear abroad in anything
except ''chaprons, made of black cloth
with decent coronets.'
still more striking development took
place In the sixteenth century. By the
statute of Is Elizabeth every person above
the age of seven years, and under a GER
tain degree, was obliged on Sundays and
holidays to wear a wooden cap-made in
England-and finished by some of the
fraternity cappers." under the penalty OF
