The great objection to umbrellas 100
years ago was their weight, and when
1t is stated as matter Of fact that the
very smallest umbrella then weighed
no less than three and half pounds it
will probably be admitted that the OBJ
lection was justifable one. Instead
of the thin rainproof fabrics which
now form the covering Of umbrellas
nothing better was known than leather
or oilcloth. The ribs were of wood or
whalebone, and such thing as a steel
rod was, Of course, unknown. The
stick was usually of heavy oak. In
those days, too, many umbrellas had
the additional incumbrance of feathers
over the top on the theory of "shed.
ding water off ducks back" But
the oilcloth and leather umbrellas, not
withstanding the feathers, were apt to
leak.

times. and the court exquisites were

long skffted coats and gold clicked
stockings. The hats worn by the
beau were modified reproductions of
those In fashion at Versailles. and the
art OF wearing them was shown In
the tilt. In fact. different angles In
the tilt identified the wearer's status
and locality.
In Ire dandvism became again par
amount. A band Of young bloods re-
turned from an extended tour abroad.
and while IN Italy they had contrived
to get several new ideas about dress
into their somewhat empty heads.
Fired with an ever growing sense Of
their own importance as arbiters of
fashion, they formed themselves into a
group known as the Macaroni club, in
contradistinction TO the good old fash
Toned Beefsteak club Of London.
The Macaronies dressed their hair
in enormous side curls. with a hideous
knOcker-like twist at the back. With
this exaggerated coiffure a tiny hat
was worn, which it was correct for
the wearer to raise with his tasseled
cane.
A soft white handkerchief was tied
in huge bow under the Macaronrs
chin. His coat was short, and his
tight knee breaches were made OF
striped or Powered silk. Thus CARRIED,
with innumerable dangling seals. two
watches at least, silk stockings and
diamond buckled shoes, the dandy
walked abroad. emlnently satisfied
with himself and quite convinced that
his appearance was greatly envied.-
