"It is well known" said Joe Boards
ley, "that deformities have often dictated
styles, but probably most people do not
realize to what extent the slight defects
control them in the most trivial pieces
of apparel This is shown in the case of
the prevailing styles of collars worn.
When the style changed from the low
collar to the high one it was sweeping
change, SO that but few people could be
seen wearing anything but the choker.
Finally the choker was modified into a
collar with the ends turned down, a good
deal of space being left open to the
throat.
"That style was never adopted univer-
sally. Why? For the reason that a great
portion of the men who have occasion to
wear collars at all have prominent Ad-
am's apples, which they are very glad to
hide from sight if they find an oppor-
tunity. The choker just suited them,
and it will be many days before they
will be induced to give it up."-Wash-
ington Post.

Those who have long expected severe re-

the average of prices thrown back TO a lower

tho fact that the legitimate business

speculation, and so far complaints In regard
TO collections have been much fewer than

improbably produce some shrlnkage In
transactions and di lnution OF profits
but the industrial and commercial condl-
tions have been so favorable that
speculative Disturbances are the less
likely to affect general business seriously.
Reports from other cities show that at most
points the events In Wall street have little
or no effect as yet. At Chicago money Is
