What's the reason for the little silk bow in the back of the leather lining in men's hats? Why do men wear buttons on the cuffs of their coats? E. W. Gifford, expert in the devel opment of dress, of the University of California, herewith tells how a few of the oddities came about. "There was a great craze for but tons when they were invented for use of man," said Gifford. "The novelty spread through countries with civil ized dress and costumes with buttons all over the fronts of coats, on the sides and backs were much in favor, the much-buttoned uniforms of today being vestiges of the early coats. "The reason for buttons on the right side of men's coats seems simple enough. This arrangement permitted the wearer in the early days to thrust his fighting arm into his packet in order to keep it warm. If the but tons were on the left side he couldn't do it. "The buttons on women's coats were originally placed on the left sid so the wearer could manipulate them with her right hand, leaving her left arm free to carry her baby. That's the explanation authorities agree on and it ought to be as good as any other. "If men will notice the buttons on thcircoat cuffs the chances are they'll find imitation button holes at the side of the buttons. This is a remnant of a seventeenth century custom. The buttons nowadays are of no use. But in the old days they were for a purpose. "In the early days of fancy clothes the men spent so much on their coats that they had to find a scheme to save the cuffs from wearing out. The tailors of those days devised the but ton and button hole on the coat sleeves. The stylish men could button the cuffs back out of harm's way and thus save wear and tear on garment and pocketbook. "The primitive hat was simply a circular piece of leather with alacing threaded through it and tied at tho back to fit the crown of tho head. In the modern hat we find the little bow of silk ribbon and in some hats the ribbon in threaded through tho lining. The modern trifle is of no use whatsoever, merely a vestigo or trace of the old days when men had to fit their hats to their heads with the leather lacing." Drs. Darland, over Putman's. Adv. an.
