but should have the same appearance
of looseness.
In the doublebreasted frock coat
shown in the next cut it is claimed
that for half-dress there is nothing
more suitable, effective, or appropriate
than the suit shown in this figure.
The material represented for the coat
and vest is fancy diagonal worstcd
and for the trousers 4 very handsome,
subducd, striped trouscring. The col
lar of the coat is cut rather long to a
low gorge and the lapels arc we'll
reaked and spaced for five holes, to
button four if desired. The silk ex-
tends to the end of holes and the edges
are flat braided The sleeves are
shapcly and are finished to initiate
cuffs closed with two buttons. The
trousers for this and all other half-dress
suits average nineteen inches at knee
and seventeen and one half to eighteen
at the bottom. They have slight
spring.
The next illustration shows a low
roll sack suit the material of which is
n st,iped cheviot. The collars and
lapcls are one and onchalf inches wide
and the fronts are cut with quite II
curve from top TO lower button. They
are finished soft. The trousers with
this suit average nineteen and onc-half
inches at the knee and eighteen at the
bottom, and the sidcseams are finished
with welt.
In the figure represented following
this the overcont is soft diagonal
cheviot, the coat and vest medium
vale worsted, and the rantaloons n
striped trousering.
The overcoat is an accurate repre-
sentation of lightweight overcoat for
the current season, thrown open.

The Longevity OF Birds.

The swan is the longest-livcd bird
and it is asserted that it has reached
the age of 100 years. Knauer, in his
work entitled "Naturhistorikcr states
that he has seen n falcon that was 1862
years old. The following examples are
cited as to the longevity of the eagle
and vulture: A sea eagle captured in
17l5, and already several years of age,
died 104 years afterward, in 1919; a
whiteheaded vulture, captured in 1905
died in 1926, in one of the aviurics of
Schoenbrunn Castle, near Vienna,
where it had passed us years in cap
tivity. Paroquets and ravens reach ar
age of over 100 years. The life of sea
and marsh birds sometimes equals that
of several human generations. Like
many other birds, magpies live to be
very old in state of freedom, but do
not reach over twenty or twenty-five
years in captivity. The nightingale
lives but ten years in captivity and the
blackbird fifteen. Canary birds reach
an age of from tw Give to fifteen years
in the cage, but those flying Mt liberty
in their native islands reach a much
more advanced age.

Once Was Enough

OTTAWAY, September Pa young
gentleman, says the Calvary Herald,
who lately left his home in England,
having exhausted his credit, telegraph
ed to his parents:
Your son Walter was killed this
morning by falling chimney. What
shall we do with the remains?
In reply a check was sent for e2O,
with the request, "bury them" The
gentleman pocketed the money and
had an elaborate spree. When in a
condition for writing he sent his father
the following note:
I have Just learned that an Infamous
scoundrel named Barker sent you fic-
titious account of my death, and swim
died you out of go. He also borrowed
:e1O from me and left the country. I
write to inform you that I am still
alive, and long to see the parental roof
again. I am in somewhat reduced cir
cumstances, the accumulations of the
last five years having been lost dis
astrous stock operation-and if you
would only spare me e29 T would be
ever thankful for your favor. Give my
love to all.
A few days later the young man re-
ceived the following dignified letter
from his outraged parent:
My Dear Son:-I have buried you
once, and that's the end of it. I de-
cline to have any transactions with a
ghost. Yours ID the flesh.
FATHER.
