uie luminous in rrr,' unit, j
even in the wearing of buttonhole Ikmi-j
quets. or "button-holes." as they are j
called for short, and curiously enough I
the fashions in button-holes come
from the same city in which originates
everything artistic and beautiful
that relates to the attire of either of
the sexes, to-wit. Paris. In that most
fashionable of all cities the man about
town would no more think of appear
ing in public without his button-hole
than he would like to be seen without
his boots or shirt collar. The same
may belaid of other cities on the Con
tinent, and especially is it true of
Uuenos Ay res, the Paris of South
America, that great city on the River
IMatte which is nothing if not a close
second to the original. In Ixmdon also
the custom of wearing button-holes
has been followed for hundreds of
years. Everyone remembers Charles
Dickens, but can anyone recall a por
trait of him without the boutonniere?
In the matter of wearing button
holes Honolulu is advancing almost as
rapidly as in other matters. Ten years
ago very few were to be seen; now
nearly every other man has from one
flower to a whole bunch in the lapel
of his coat. Two or three years ago
button-holes were placed on sale in one
of our drug stores; ndAv they may be
obtained at half a dozen places, or are
supplied to order at others.
The love of Mowers Is second nature
to some men. Take Bert Peterson or
Lionel Hart, for instance. Does any
one suppose for n minute that those
two young society favorites would feel
at their ease without a button-hole and
the best that could be got for money,
either? Fred Whitney would be lost
without one, and Dr. High would go
into spasms. Deputy Marshal Chilling
worth is never without one, nor is
Chester Doyle if he can help it. P. D.
Kellett and George Lucas of the Judi
ciary Ollice are never satisfied unless
they have button-holes in their coats
and bouquets on their tables. Kven
stockbrokers think of their button
holes before getting ready for another
assault on Kihei, as witness T. F. Iati
sing and Willard Drown. Princes Cu
pid and David alweays wear button
holes and so does Capitalist John (I.
Walker. Others whose routines for
the button-hole makes them prominent
are C. H. W. Norton. George D. Gear,
A. S. Humphreys, Dr. Murray. I-eslie
Scott, Charles Don, W. G. Ashley and
last but not least by any means Attor
ney General Cooper. It has been said
that the love of flowers betokens purity
of the soul, but it will not be too much
to say that there is never anything
radically bad in a man who loves flow
ers. But fashion's decrees are all-powerful;
they must bo obeyed in Honolulu
as in Paris. This being so. it Is well
that Honolulu florists, as well as so
ciety young men, should be careful to
wear only the right flowers at the right
times. Hence the button-hole brigade
should take notice that fashion has de
creed in Paris for the season of 1S09
that the following is the proper order
in which flowers are to be worn by
men:
1. For the early constitutional Rus
sian violets.
2. For afternoon calls Dark red car
nation.
3. At the theater White carnation.
4. At dinner parties Orchid.
,". At the dance Gardenia.
A word as to the origin of this pret
ty custom. Of all those who wear them
how many in Honolulu could tell fom
what country it was derived or in
what ago? It could have originated
only in France, and consequently in
Paris, for Paris is France. One
day in a careless mood Iuis'
XIV. of France while in the gar
dens of beautiful Versailles, picked the
pretty star of a potato flower and stuck
it in his button-hole. His courtiers
immediately did the same and it be
came the fashion, ami has remained so
ever since.

COUNTRY WITH ONK POLICKMAN.
There is one country in the world,
and probably only one. which pots
along with a single policeman; that is
Iceland. Iceland is peopled by the de
scendants of Vikings, including many
famous warriors and heroes, but they
are so law-abiding that they have no
need of policemen. The solitary offi
cer, in spite of his great responsibility.'
has a very easy time. He is main- j
tained more for ornament and dignity j
than for use. The Icelanders think it !
