It is childlike, or rather, ladylike. Who would believe in the learning of a barrister without a wig, or consider that a murderer had got justice if the judge in sentencing him did not don a black cap? It is admitted that cocked hats are very unservice- able, but many high officials wear them, and they would be thought little of if they did not. 156 HOW TO BE HAPPY THOUGH CIVIL The hat enters into domestic relations. A man is advised to hang up his hat where there is an eligible young lady, and... a woman (not, of course, a new one) has been known to set her cap at a man. Character is shown by the way men take off their hats as much as by the way they shake hands. All kinds of feeling, from burning love to bitter hatred, may be expressed in this form of salutation. What is the origin of saluting by taking off the hat? It comes from a time when a vanquished man gave his armour to his con- queror. Then his clothes were handed over, and now the hat is presented as representing the rest of his clothes, which it would not do to take off.
