And, so saying, he seated himself and proceeded to remove his own head-covering, disclosing lean, ascetic features, cold, cruel, and domineering, crowned by the monk's tonsure.

Hats are the universal head-covering in England, even for working-men, hats of the most diverse forms, round, high, broad-brimmed, narrow-brimmed, or without brims only the younger men in factory towns wearing caps. Any one who does not own a hat folds himself a low, square paper cap.

The farmer with the plug hat he-hawed at the top of his voice, the miserable owner of the eggs got mad at him, some words ensued, the farmer started after him, the egg owner ran, once outside fired an egg which struck the smooth, shiny tile with a splatter, and the farmer came back into the express office holding his nose, bareheaded, and looking for his rejected straw head-covering.

"I think her summer head-covering was a little the most remarkable we have had yet. She dresses so decently otherwise, good soul!" "It was astonishing," said the doctor gravely, as he stood before the fire thinking how pleasant the room looked; almost as familiar as his own study, with its heavy mahogany furniture and two old portraits and few quaint ornaments. Mrs.

"Did you ever hear anything like it in all your life? You had one, too, didn't you?" she cried, her eyes falling on the letter in her brother's hand. "But 'tain't true, of course!" Miss Flora wore no head-covering. Her dress, evidently donned hastily for the street, was unevenly fastened, showing the topmost button without a buttonhole.

Titian was now getting to be old, but he was yet to do great work and to have kingly patrons. Charles V. visited Bologna, and, seeing Titian's great work, wanted him to paint his portrait. So the artist went to Bologna and painted the portrait of the king, clothed in armour, but without any head-covering, making Charles V. look so fine a personage, that he was delighted.

If there was one thing more than another that Dr Hellyer esteemed I think I have already sufficiently pointed out it was his dignity to the glory of which the archdeacon's hat he always wore on Sundays eminently contributed; and, as may be believed, he venerated this head-covering accordingly. It was against this hat I contemplated taking especial proceedings now.

Limbs and arms were bare and his head-covering of red wool hung from his arm. Costobarus, a little discomfited that he had been surprised with Laodice's dowry exposed, spoke briskly. "Well, Aquila? Prepared?" "Everything is in order. I am ready to proceed at once." "How many in your party?" "But myself." "Have you ever been to Jerusalem?" "Never."
