WHEN MEN WORE sLAcEs.
sousehold and Dress Bills Of Our An.
eestors Were Appalling.


We hear it said everywhere-at
the beginning and at the end of
every season-that modern extrav-
agance is appalling, that women
overdress, that they spend more for
single hat than their grandmoth-
srs did for their whole trousseaux.
Like many other often recurring
general statements, this is far from
being accurate. The well known
French writer, NJ. Henry de Caller,
contributes to the current issue of
La Revue a remarkable study on
Spending Money In Days Of
Yore."
From statistics carefully COM
piled, from private documents of
one or two centuries ago, from let
ters and bills dating from those dis
tant days, it appears that extrava-
gance was far worse then.
The greatest change in the mat
ter of expenditure is that during
the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries men spent quite as much
as if not more than women for their
own attire.
Today the average man spends
considerably less than the average
woman on clothes, and in. the
wealthy classes the difference is
more marked still, since it was re-
Gently stated by queen of fashion
that, while a man could be quite
elegant" by spending f40O a year
on himself, woman needed f4OO a
month to dress stylishly.
In the middle class, as in the
aristocracy, $50 years ago more
things were required by man. He
wore night cuffs of lace, his black
suit cost f5 (of our money!, his hats
he needed half a dozen-e1 each.
He required silk stockings, wooden
stockings and Skin" stockings and
five or six different kinds of boots.
He had to spend several pounds a
year at the barber's and wigmakcr's.
The middle class woman of those
days managed to dress in a cheaper
way, though dress was the main ex-
pense.
Diaries and memoirs establish
the curious fact that the upbringing
of three children cost a third less
than the clothes required by their
mother, a modest woman. Men
wore ribbons, lace, embroideries
and jewelry in as large quantities
as women.
As for jewels, men formerly wore
diamonds and pearls on their
clothes, shoes and hands, while to-
day a man of refined taste is salts
fed with modest ring, simple
links, little pearl as a shirt stud
;; and a large stone as a scarfpin.-

House In Damascus.

House In Damascus. o.
Ased Ullah's house is in what
seems to be mean quarter of the
town. 1t is but seeming. All Da-
mascus houses front upon mean
streets and are hidden and barred
The street is narrow, walled, rough
enough underfoot, painted thick
with vivid sunshine and deep shadow
"a mystery of direction, too, and
Of detail, turning unexpectedly, for
ever revealing the surprise of low
arches and steep alleys, of fenced
tombs and wells in the wall. 1t is
but step from the flowing confu-
sion of man and beast and noisy
trading of the Suk ct Tawileh, but
remains quiet, traversed by appren-
tices upon errands, yelled women in
black, who slip along the walls of
unfrequented places, sheiks and
scholars in softly tinted robes. There
is gigantic porter at the gate, as
at the gates Of the men of wealth
and quality Of the town, to unlock
the way and shout warning to the
wife of Ahmed Ased Ullah, provid-
ing against the scandal of a surprise
in the garden.
Here, then, upon cushions under
the light, with his pens and his tools
and his collection of old master
pieces, secluded from the vehement
business of the bazaar and the trou-
blous politics of the town, sits All
med Ased Ullah, the writer, unused
to the company of travellers from
abroad, but mildly wishful for it.
"Your day be happy" says All
med Ased Ullah, according to the
form, beaming inquisitively over his
great spectacles.
"And yours both happy and bless
! ed"
"My house," he replies, his inter
est quite detached from the compli-
ment, genially expressing itself rath-
er in a glowing, diffident smile,
childlike in frank delight, "is hon.
ored in your presence.
"But, no." is the protestation; !;
"the honor is to such as may by
grace be permitted to visit the
homes of the distinguished"
"God forbid" says Ahmed Ased
| Ullah, with pious formality, chat it
| should be considered SO in this
casew
'God forbid, indeed, that it should
be presumed otherwise!"
/ Ahmed Ased Ullah swiftly touches
his breast, his thin white beard, his
i forehead, offering the service of his
heart, his lips, his mind, in agree
ment with the polite custom, and
accepts in return an expression Of
devotion precisely similar in form
and sincerity, all the while continu-
ing with remarkable rapidity to
jump his finger tips from breast to
brow, as if with the determination
to multiply his politeness beyond
the possibility of being matched,
displaying in the ceremony an agil-
ity which nothing but lifelong prac-
tice could achieve.
"By your favor" says he at last,
bowling an invitation to enter.
ut is by your grace"
And the gentle welcome to the
diwan of Ahmed Ased Ullah is &C.
complished. - Norman Duncan in
