Machinery Us Responsible
For Mate Fashions

This general rule Of nature continued
through humanity for an amazingly long
period. Ii would be interesting to know just
when and why husbands and brothers left off
being ornamental and took ON the convict
garb Of to-day. I am inclined to blame ma
chinery for it. Machinery is handy scape
goat for almost anything. 1t is such vast
all~pervading institution, ana it can't talk
back. At any rate, il is certain that the min
ute man begins to monkey with machinery
he gets all covered with grease and dirt and
rapidly takes on the color of the thing he is
tanpering with, which is mainly black. From
this spring the various forms Of drab garments

The clothes themselves are machine made. and

The moment we get back to primitive hand
work conditions we find man beginning to get
fancy with his raiment. The cowboy, that
rare survival of the Indian chief; the sheik
of the desert, the Basque peasant, all these
simple males far removed from traffic with
anything more complicated than bucking
broncho or camel, Immediately invest them
selves with gay apparel. These are modern
instances.
