oLp.r1ME CLOTHING FOR LADS.
Gay Apparel Worn by Schoolboys
200 Years Ago.


How would the schoolboys of to-
day enjoy wearing gayly-howered
vests, fine blue or red stockings and
blue plush breeches? This was only
part Of the gay apparel worn by
schoolboys of two centuries or more
ago. There were few public schools
in those early days, and the boys who
attended pay schools" were very
particular about their apparel.
A single example will give a good
idea of the contents of one small
trunk of boy leaving home for
school. A lad about 10 years old,
named John Livingstone, was sent
from New York to school in New
England in the latter part of the
Seventeenth Century. An account
of his new linen and clothes has
been preserved. 1t reads thus, in
the old spelling:
Eleven new shirts.
Pair laced sleeves.
8 Plane Cravats.
4 Cravats with Lace.
Stripte Wastcoats with black
buttons.
l Flowered Wastecoat.
New osenbrig britches.
1 Gray hat with black ribbon.
l Gray hat with blew ribbon.
l Dousin black buttons.
1 Dousin coloured buttons.
3 Pair gold buttons.
Silk & Thred to mend his Cloathes.
Pair silver buttons.
2 Pair Fine blew Stockings.
1 Pair Fine red Stockings.
White Handkerchiefs.
2 Speckled Handkerchiefs.
5 Pair Gloves.
L Stuff Coat with black buttons.
1 Cloth Coat.
l Pair blew plush britches.
1 Pair Serge Britches.
2 Combs
l Pair new Shoes.
"Osenbrig" was a heavy linen.
Other schoolboys of that date had
deerskin breeches. Little boys, just
as soon as they could walk, wore
clothes precisely like their fathers
doublets, which were warm double
jackets; and leather knee-breeches,
leather belts and knit cap.-Phila-
delphia Record.
