 Wore Brooches; Fined.
 The days when it was deemed not only improper but criminal for wom- en to wear brooches are recalled by a copy of the old Plainville Bell" which has been found by H. A. Cas- te of Canal street. This paper, which ran for only one issue, appeared 75 years ago under the editorial super vision of Rev. Alonzo N. Lewis and Dr. Girard Sanford. It was one of several which graced the period, all containing breezy gossip and edi- torials. The most interesting article in the "Bell' is perhaps the follow ing:
 We would say to the fashionable ladies of Plainville, whose frocks do not hang lower than they should, and who wear dangling around their feet a pair of half brooches called pana- let's, that it is dangerous in so do- ing-for the Birdville News informs us that lady lately on visit to friends was arrested and brought be- fore the Female NJ. R. Society and fined five dollars and costs under the act prohibiting females from appear ing in public with mems clothes on. 'Tis expected, of course, that married ladies will wear brooches, but the audacity of putting them on before marriage should be severely pun ished."
