On Tuesday in Tunisia's capital, Tunis, a craftsman applies the finishing touches to the traditional chechia cap, won by many Muslims as a mark of faith.

"But at least we know he's a nationalist," a man wearing a traditional burgundy chechia hat says.

According to smartchart scouts, the originator of the season's high hattery is the lovely Comtesse Francois-Guillaume de Maigret who persuaded Maria Guy to adapt a Tunisian Chechia on her return from an African vacation, and wore it with devastating success at Parisian race tracks.

He wore full uniform, was fully equipped, crimson chechia, snowy gaiters, and terrible sabre-bayonet.

There was the violet cassock of the Nuncio with his broad silk sash, the purple Chechia of Mourad Bey, and the red tunic of the Papal Guard with its gold collar, blue embroideries, and gold braid on the breast, decorated also with the huge brilliant cross of the Legion of Honour, which the young Italian had received that very morning, the President thinking it proper to reward the successful delivery of the Cardinal's hat.
