WHEN MEN WORE sHAwLs.
Some 40 Years Ago They Took the
Place of Overconts-

Place of Overconts.
On very rare occasions you now see
some old lady wearing a shawl, out
generally speaking, this once universal
garment has become obsolete.
Those children that are, say 40 years
old or more, can probably remember
when even men wore shawls instead
of overooats. For about ten years
they were considered just the thing.
This was the decade beginning with
about 1860. President Lincoln was
very partial to his big Scotch shawl,
which, according to the vogue, he
wore. not folded diagonally in femi-
nine fashion, but folded lengthwise.
This folded shawl was passed
over the shoulders and around the
front, where it was either held by the
hands or pinned by a huge shawl pin.
This case of the shawl is about the
only one where the men have appro-
priated an article of wear from the
women's ardrobe-though the in
stances where the reverse has happen
ed are legion.
Even then. the shawl was originally
not a woman's garment exclusively,
for the Scotch Highlander has his tar
tan plaid, and the men OF northern
Italy still wear a cloak which is very
little more than a shawl. There can
be no question that the shawl is more
useful and more picturesque as an ar
ticle Of attire than the close fitting
coats both men and women now wear.
The shawl could in case of emergency
be used 10 protect two persons, or TO
wrap a child in. or as an extra bed
covering; its fashion did not change
every three months. and it could be
used and passed down in the family
until It was worn out.
Nowadays the only time when such
articles are used is when people are
making an ocean trip or travelling N
Europe. Travelling rugs" which are
nothing more nor less than mems
heavy shawls. are extremely English:
and for travellers they are considered
very proper and desirable-but outside
Of a steamer. train or carriage no one
who cares for what people will say
would be seen with one.

Truth has been defined eleven different

definitions and boil them down any num-
ber of times, and the product is what?
Simply the gift OF an omuipotent Godhead
bestowed upon man for the reason that
He so long loved him that He gave him
attributes OF Himself in the creating. and.
more wonderful still, reformed him after
he had fallen into error. Hence truth is
one Of the most precious gifts from. and
