A Swell Dress !
Lace and Button
The Mlulater’* Tartan.
Every clan of Scottish highlanders
had Its own tartan, or striped colored
cloth, of which the kilt and plaid were
made. It is not so well known, how
ever, that the clergy of the highland
ers down to a recent date used a tartan
for their weekday dress. Th? tartan
of the clergy, as It was called, was a
sober cloth of white, black and gray
stripes. Ministers who did not care to
don the kilt almost always wore tbe
plaid or mantle of tbls material. In
tbe eighteenth century when the high
landers seldom went unarmed It was
tbe custom of some clergymen to wear
swords even At church and to be ac
companied by a gillie, or servant, car
rying a bow and sbeatb of arrows.’
Nothing could better Illustrate tbe ’dls-
turbed state of those times than tbls
practice on the part of tbe men who
were pre-eminently preachers of peace
and universal good will.—Scotsman.
