Then there ' n.ro tin robes of the new dignity to be pur chased. These are elaborate am expensive, but rarely worn. Rjidien I cartoonists love to depict peer.' ill their coronets, a.s if these wen da.ily worn, iind probably some people really think that the peers weai these, insignia during debates. Rut (dm only occasions on which they arc used are coronations, or when a peer sits in state for .a photograph or portrait. It is whispered that some peers do not go to the expense of buying robes and coronets, but borrow or hire them for the occasion. Perhaps among the dark secrets of the peerage there are cases of coronets being entrusted t:i the safe keeping of gentlemen willing to advance money upon them.
