FASHIONS RULED BY THE LAW
Even Handkerchiefs at One Time
Were Regulated by Statute-tlgh
Hats Caused Sensation.

AS far back as the reign Of Edward
there was a form Of jumper in vogue
which was known as the cote-hardie.
In Henry Tvs time the scallopIng
OF ladies' skirts was not allowed, for
In 1853 law was passed against "the
cutting Of the edges Of sleeves or the
borders Of gowns into the form of let
ters, leaves or other devices"
Even handkerchiefs were once reg,,-
lated by law. There was an edict
dated June 2. 1855, and issued by .
Louis XVI at the request of Marie An
toinette. which decreed that "the
length Of handkerchiefs shall he equal
to their width" Since then they have
been square; and 1t seems likely that
they will remain so.
The top hat was first introduced In
England by a Strand haberdasher
ramed Hetherington. Such a large
crowd was attracted that he was sum
moned on charge Of breach of the
peace and was required to give bonds
to the value Of 1900.
A law was passed In the reign Of
Henry which even went so far as
to prohibit the wearing of long hair.
Such articles as boots did not escape
the eagle eye Of the lawmakers, as In
an edict dated 1465 people were for
bidden to wear boots the pykes or
points Of which exceeded two inches
In length. Anyone breaking this law
would be cursed by the clergy and
fined 20 shillings.
Long trousers appear to have been
hrst worn about 1872. and were at first
the subject Of much amusement. They
were made fairly straight, with strap
fastening them down at the bottom
a fashion that lasted some thirteen
years.
Then came the pegtop style, roomy
at the thighs and tight-ftting round
the ankles, which were discarded In
1850 In favor of the bell bottoms.
These were much the same as sailors
wear today. A little later the pegtops
again became the fashion, this time
without the strap under tile boot.
Finally, about 1875, bags" Just
straight cut tunnels, became the craze.
These were the forerunners Of the
present-day style, the most marked dis
tinction being the permanent turn

WAR RISK PAYMENTS
CURB BEFORE SENATE


Favorabie report was made yester-
day by the Senate finance committee
Of a bill passed by the, House restrict
ing payments made under the war
risk insurance act to- guardians of
minors. and to the guardians Of vete-
rams mentally incompetent or under
other legal disability. Until a
guardian is appointed for such bene-
ficiaries, the director of the Vete-
rams Bureau may withhold such pay
ments, under the provisions of the
measure.
When satisfied that the person en-
titled to receive payments is an in
mate Of an asylum or hospital for
tho insane. and is without a guardian,
the director would be permitted to
disburse from -. the credit enough
money to provide. for the main
tenance and comfort of the veteran,
and in case such veteran has depend
cnts. the director would be author
lied to make advances to them out
of the. funds due the veteran. In
the event of the death of veteran
who was mentally incompetent, and
for whom a guardian had not been
appointed, the director would, under
the bill, be permitted to pay whatever
balance remained to the credit of
the veteran to his personal repre-
sentative.

CHALLENGES NORRIS
TO PROVE CHARGE

Senator Norris. republican. Nebfas-
ka. was challenged yesterday by Gray
Silver, Washington representative of
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton, either to prove or retract the
charge he made Friday, in a pub
lie statement, that Mr.. Silver repre-
sented the. Ford corporation instead
of the farmers. In d letter to Senator
Norris Mr. Silver said he had tele-
Eraphed the federation's president
asking that its executive committee
he assembled here at once TO take up
the matter.
Senator Norris attacked a statement
of Mr.. Silver that acceptance by
Congress of the Ford offer on Muscle
Shoals would make possible re-
duction by three-fourths in the price
of nitrogen used as fertilizer. and
said:
Mr.. Silver, representing this Ford
corporation instead of the farmers
who are supposed to pay him. has
bean instrumental in holding up the
work of the government on the dam
st Muscle Shoals simply because the
ford people have demanded 1t, with
tho result that the cost OF the dam to
tho taxpayers of America will be
grealy increased"
