1t will be a Season Of Vast Neckwear,
 but of Qufeter Colors.
 From the Clothier and Furnisher.l
 The winter overcoat will be in variety of kersey and melton, made with an ample velvet collar and both single and double breasted. The overcoats are curiously in contradistinction to the trim cut of the un- dercoats, being full and box-like. The more distinguished heavy top coat of the year, however, is made of black, dull-faeed Dur ham beaver.
 The Inverness cape for full-dress wear is now made with the velvet collar, which feature will be more prominent this sea- son upon the swallow than hereto fore.
 The double-breasted sack roundabout that is distinctively a cool-weather gar ment is coming strong for the winter sea- son. The suitings are made almost exclu- sively in dark blue heavy cheviots in a rough, indistinct ribbed pattern It is quite proper to wear other trouser of some complementary shade with this seryicea- ble and well looking coat as Q relief occa- sionally to the trousers that match.
 The patterns of suitings shown are of the mildest character imaginable in invisible ribs or small check patterns and eombina- tions of gray and black, gray and blue and a variety of shades in solid gray predomi- hating. There are of these last named steel-grays and blue grays and an indefina- ble but rich effect called gray-gray. The mixtures are made up in single-breasted sack and cutaway suitings. The single breasted sack coats arc made this year with three buttons, owing to the lower cut of the lanai a indeed thadnrrl,ls- -1,-.o ted sacks. The eutaway coats in the suitings are made two or three button, as a matter of choice.
 A few of the single breasted Prince Al berts are reappearing. A neat and formal looking coat, it was difficult to cut, but in a short-shoGldered, well-made way exceed ingly fetching.
 Double breasted cutaway coats are being ordered. They are difficult coats to cut but there is a relish in seeing one of them on a man of full chest and good physique They are particularly effective in the rougf | faced elastic worsted and thibets. and. oi course, are only made up in black. Tn, cloths, indeed, for the fine, dressy gar ments, are this season very satisfactor, | for the tailor to handle, as when they ar made to properly fit they seem to molS upon and cling to the figure.
 This seems to be an era of hugeness il neckwear, with some of the big London Burlington bows, the size of the ordinar, De Joinville leading the way.
 The regular avenue stores are now show ing the three-inch wide Ascots that hay, become one of the staple articles of stock
 The big scarfngs are necessarily mild il their effect, the quietude in their tone tenn pering the display of an unusual quantit, of fine texture.
 The high-backed turnovers gain ney converts as fast as they can be turned out and the later styles are greater in altitud' at the back
 Do not make any mistake about it; tn trousers of the swagger man are still worl creased in the leg.
 The best kind of cheap jewelry is of sil yer, for the reason that it is more likely t be what it pretends to be.
 It is desirable that a cravat four-in-han' should be held firmly up against the tab of a collar The collar button neve should be seen. With cravat this ma be accomplished by drawing the first kno 1 firm. With four-in-hand it may be aC complished by first tying a firm, simpl knot before making the four-in-hand mov' ment. -..
