a silver ball on the top instead of a
crook, were called pompadour
sticks. A shade of pink was called
pompadour pink, too.
Even a fish has been named the
pompadour, not because it wears its
scales straight back or carries a
stick but because it is that same
shade Of passionate pink that flashed
across Louis court on date nights.
The Marquise de Pompadour's
given name-the name she was
known by until she made good with
the king-was Jean Poisson. Pois-
son is French for fish, so naming a
fish pompadour was merely return
ing the compliment.

Lavalliere
THE piece Of jewelry known as a
L lavalliere has been out of style
for many years-but it carried on
for two centuries the name of the
duchess of Lavalliere for whom it
was named. She was born in 1914
and died in ITO, noted for being the
mistress Of Louis XIV and for her
affection for pendant jewelry which
hung from her throat by chain.

Teddy Bear
THE coy, mild teddy bear, the

named after the brusque, forceful
Theodore Roosevelt, as result OF q
bear hunt down in Mississippi dur

For 10 days ''Teddy" and his
companions searched in vain for big
game. One morning the cry Of
"Bear!" was raised and the Presi-

cover a small, frightened cub which
had been dragged into camp for him
to shoot.

mother a duchess and conferred
upon her the estate of Vaujours,
which gives you a rough idea of how
the French tried to hush those mat

The same year, she gave birth to
a son, but Louis was interested in
someone else then and the duchess
finally spent her remaining days in
a convent /. lucky at that that she
had nothing around her throat when
she left Louis except pendant jew
