What are They Fit For P Mr. Editor: “Will yon permit, me,” a much injured and highly indignant lover of the beautiful, to give vent, to a limited extent, in behalf of au out raged and downtrodden public, to my more than ever augmented feelings of disgust and mortification at the man ner in which onr otherwise beautiful and lovable women make themselves hideous, and which has caused poor misened man to ntter more anat h- emas than any other of the many faults (false) of the faulty women, and that is the abominable and un pardonable habit, brought on by fash ion, of wearing, on the back of their heads these handleless buggy umbrel las which fashion has the audacity to call hats—of the “fanner” tribe? (A circus tent more accurately describes tbem.) It was my fortune, or misfortune it proved to be, to attend “Hazel Kirke” on lust Monday night, aud after hav ing located my seat, settled myself back in my ebair with the full deter mination to learn all I could of the mysteries and intricacies of love-mak ing. All was well so fur, but just while I wus gazing upon the curtain that was soon to rise, a mighty dark ness nil at once, without ceremony, seemed to settle down over mo and my neighborhood, but whiio I was floundering around in the darkness below iu a vain endeavor to investi gate the “wbyness of tbo wherefore,” tho darkness changed its position, to a certain extout, but hold, what is this indescribable black muss that has so successfully shut out from my gaze all that which I had anticipated so mud: pleasure from ? All whs beautiful and bright in the rear, but before me was darkness aud nothing more. In the further investigation of the matter, I found that the darkness was canned by the complete overshadowing of one of tbo nbove described circus tents, on a small scale. I was overcome and sank back in my chair to meditate.— I got excited, vexed, yes, mad; and at one time when Hazel's father was driving her out from home because she would not marry him to whom hor father bad betrothed her, a lady friend at my side insisted that she saw tears of sympathy, for poor Ha zel, rolling down my cheek, but Mr. Editor, it was not tears; ’twas crys tallized bends of prespiration brought on by the fit of rage to which I hnd worked myself np to. Now, Mr. Ed itor, one thing more—wlmt are these falsely termed hats tit for. “You mny not bclive it, but I'll be bunged if I know.” Y’ours iu wnr-piiiut, D. E. V. I.
