that was sold for $3.50 at retail will be
put out for one dollar less. and the popu-

larizing Of these goods, while it will in
crease the sales of the low priced shirts,
will also tend to the inception OF even

are, of course, strictly neglige. They are
in solid coIors and pattern designs, and
in some of the finer grades embroidery

The limit may be said to have been

The Clothfer and FuTnisfer answers as
follows query for the benefit of a large
and constantly growing constituency
upon the anxious seat Of inquiry. The
first is with reference TO the kind Of era
vat to be worn with the dress suit.
Should it be white, or may it be blacks /
should say that q white lawn tie is al.
ways preferable with the swaIlowtail
coat, although with the tailless coat,
which is 10 the nature of slightly
lnoduiated tone Of formality, a black
cravat may be worn. Indeed a wide
black satin .crayat tied under one of
the high backed turnover collars, anu
worn with the Tuxedo dress coat and a
black derby hat, is quite the vogue among
the young men about town at night, at
the club or at the theatre alone. or.
indeed, anywhere not in the society
of ladies. l should say that in
case g gentleman was just coming
out OF mourning, he might wear
black silk cravat with his swallowtail
coat. This idea has been even elaborated
to the extent of wearing black shirt
studs. cuff buttons and black buttons on
the white Marseilles, low-cut waislcoat.
The white tie. the swaIlow-taii and the
silk hat is the best combination, however,
for wherever one expects TO meet any
represent atires of the fair sex after six
p. m.
There is to be an effort made this COM
ing spring to revive the interest in suit
ings OF more pronounced pattern. There
will be some very snowy plaids exhibited
with others vastly more striking than the
quiet gray and blue combinations OF this
winter that will seem tame in the con-
trast, and may be introduced again in
this way. The solid color craze in cloth
ing has really put the clothing men TO
their Wits end for novelties. The con-
certed outbreak of the snuff-colored
young men during the month OF Novem-
Der has been regarded by some of the
i styIe-framers as beacon light pointing
the desire OF the jeIResse d0ree towards a
~ ore lightsome era IN garb.
