Iv. (Concluded.) Although after the Norman conquest the unsettled state of the country forbade much development along the line of in- dustrial arts, there was some improve- ment in the manner of living. King Hen- ry II encouraged domestic improvements in the homes’ of his barons and courtiers, and the old cpmfortless mode of living gradually disappeared among the upper classes. The principal furniture, strongly | bound iron chests, which could be speed- ily hidden.in case of attack, were then placed by armories and bedstes | Stairs were made in houses, and the d mestic life of the family was withdrawn | from the common hall to the privacy of the “‘parloir” or talking room.

Artisans from Italy, Flanders and France were summoned to Spain by the great Charles V, who boasted that the sun never set in his dominions.

ROTTANZI DISCUSSED HIGH HATS AND EUROPE Author of the Famous Ordinance Re- turns From Abroad After a Year's Absence. Dr. Rottanzi, ex-Supervisor, author of the high-hat ordinance, sweet singer and Bohemian, returned from abroad Tues- day evening and made his appearance on “the line” yesterday afternoon attired in clothes that put the sun in the shade and heated up his vieinity. The doctor ex- tended his hand gladly and so often that before the sun could escape to the other sidé of the thoroughfare his arm was limp and sore. As the popular medico walked down the street he kept cool shuddering at the lat- est things in millinery which the young ladies of this city were wearing. The dainty “creations,” hidden behind birds, flowers, fruit and feathers, reminded him of his experience in Milan, Italy. He went to the opera one evening and was prepared to go into raptures over the singing of great artists,” but he was doomed to disappointment. Three society | ladies occupied seats in front of him ana | their tall ®ats completely hid the stage | from his view. The doctor wished them in San Francisco and elsewhere, bur he was no magician. To add to his.cup of sorrow, the ladies helgr animated conver- sation during the finest passage of the opera. .’l‘l\n next day he met the editor of the leading journal of Milan and poured his woes Into the seribe's ears. he doctor was not only pained that such things were tolerated but was shocked. He ex- panded on his high-hat ordinance, and the cditor was so profoundly impressed with the law as it existed in this city that he invited Dr. Rottanzi to become a mem- Ler of the Town Council. The latter nar- rowly escaped being honored by taking & hast, departure from that city. The doctor has been absent from this city for more than eighteen months. Dur- ing his stay abroad he devoted his time to study and the practice of his profes- sion. He attended the lectures and clinics given by the leading universities of Eu- rope and derived much benefit. The doe- tor visited the Paris Exposition and was greatly disappointed at the exhibit of this country. He said that bankrupt Spain and lttle Bulgaria’s exhibits survlu-ed that of America. The doctor said the ex- hibits of this country were very fine and proved to the world that our manufac- fories surpassed other countries, but the barnlike building in which they were sit- uated showed them off to poor advantage. Dr. Rottanzi is out of politics. Nothin; could induce him to enter the politi arena again, now that his high-hat ordi- nanee is working so nicely. e will de- vote his time to the practice of his pro- fession.
