WALKING STICK AND UMBRELLA

The walking stick is worn with morning wear, afternoon dress, but never with evening dress.

The styles are ever changing. Sticks are worn in summer and winter. In selecting sticks do not take the extremes in heavy or light. Never have any metal but silver—it is the most elegant.

Among the best dressers and beaus of this city the walking stick is no longer carried or worn, either with morning wear or afternoon dress. As went the rapier so goes the walking stick.

The Umbrella.—This is worn only in doubtful or wet weather.

It is worn at any time of day. Silver is the only proper metal. The material should be silk or part silk. Never wear the case in the street.
