OLD TIME HAT STAMPS.

Death Used to Be the Penalty In Eng
land For Forging Them.
Hats hay In England been subject
to very severe protective enactments
The blocked beaver hat, for instance,
imported by Sir Walter Raleigh from
the Low Countries, won its way so
rapidly that in 1871 Queen Elizabeth
passed an act to protect the making
of "thrummed" caps, made from wool
for the advantage Of the landed pro.
prietors, whose sheep furnished the
material. The statute provided thai
every male person shall on Sundays
and holidays wea on his head a car
of velvet wool made in England, pen
atty, IS. Cd. per day.
About q century later the law, fol
which there is nothing too high or toe
low, having taxed mems shoes, turned
Its attention once more to their hats
and oon put a check on all improve
ments in the trade by requiring ever,
vender Of hats to take out a license
under q heavy penalty. Subsequently
a stamp duty was imposed on all hats
which were officially marked inside
where the makers name nov appears
The penalty for selling a hat without
a stamp was FLO, and the penalty fol
forging q hat stamp was death
