The umbrella has been getting smaller and smaller; the latest is so tiny as to cover no more than a lady's hat, says a Home paper.

The object aimed at in con- venience; it is far easier to manipulate a small umbrella than a large one, especially in crowded. streets. Its appearance need cause no surpriso, for it is the consequence of natural ovolution. For long there has been re- sentment against the unwieldy umbrellas, which very often blew. pioces when a high, wind sprang up, and which always re- sulted in collisions between: bearers of different heights.

To dispense with suporstuctures rain hats were in- vented: But useful though they were in the storm, they proved to be very unsightly when the weuthor changed, as it ofton did suddenly, and the sun came out.

But in no circumstances would the toy umbrella have become possible had it not been for the shrinking of hats generally. And doubtless no one would have thought of putting it on the market for grown-up women had not umbrellas for little children been brought to so high a state of decorative achievement.

The gain is unquestionable. The problem has been how to protect the hat, the most im- portant feature of the toilötte, from expected rain. Always to carry an umbrella of average size was uncomfortable; the toy! umbrella is not only useful, but it! is also an adornment in itself; for it can be of artistic design and exquisite workmanship.

Invariably, whenever we create xome charming detail of fashion! the eighteenth century furnishes a precedent. And so it. is with the toy umbrella. Toy umbrollas of choice silk with handles] elaborately carved, of tortoise- sholl or ivory, were spocially made for Marie Antoinotte, who was very much of a coquette. Exact reproductions of thoso umbrellus are now being sold.
