suaded to accept either.
have written ut some length about
coats. There is nothing to say of vests,
except that they are cut rather short
now. Any tailor should make vest
fit we'll. But the pantaloons-oh, there's
the rub Where is the genius who
shall rise up and tell us how to prevent
bagging at the knee? 1t NAV be
amcliorated, but that is all. When it
is excessive the fault is not in the cut
ut the knee, but in what tailor would
call the length of the stride. This
means the extra cloth on the back,
from the knee up, which enables the
leg to be extended or bent without diff
ficulty. The necessity for this extra
cloth prevents the existence of Il per-
feet pair of pantnloons. There must
always be too much fullncss at point
back of the thigh to look we'll when the
wearcr of the pantaloons is standing
erect. But this necessity should not be
made to excuse wrinkles all the way
down the back of the leg. There may
be plenty of cloth to prevent excessive
bagging ut the knee, and it may be so
disposed as to conceal its supcrtluity.
The man with broad hips should
make his tailor allow for that unusual
beam" but never let him run the full
ness all the way down to the knee.
This results in those wrinkles at the
sides from the knee up, which are SO
distressing to man who is sensitive
about his dress. Don't let any tailor
excuse such cut; lie is sticking to his
system and neglecting the special needs
of the customer.
One of the most common defects in
pantaloons is the failure to fit close to
the leg on the outside, between the
knee and ankle. A man with large
calf, placed too far out, will be lucky if
his trousers do not hang two inches
away from his ankle. But there is no
need of 1t. The cutter can easily put
sufficient fullness into the design to al
low the leg plenty of room and then
narrow the pantaloons at the bottom.
The difficulty here is more often with
the man who makes up the garment. He
fails to get the inside and outside seams
even. Careful basting will avoid it.
This sort of II leg is usually some
what bowed, and it requires u straight
inside seam. Pantaloons arc not now
cnt with any spring" They fall per-
fectly straight down, to strike the shoe
at Il point just above where the lacing
begins.
Never choose cloth that will stretch
for pantaloons. Avoid what arc called
basket goods. After you have chosen
Your pattern ask the cutter whether it
will make up well. Try to get the
truth out of him if you think there is
any in him; and, if he inspires conf
dencc, abide by his Judgment. for
there's great deal in selecting proper
cloth If you wish well-ftting panta-

ter, but they have the great advantage

In the first place. young man, know
your figure thoroughly. Make Il care
full and honest investigations If you
are bow-lcgrcd or nnrrow-chcstcd, adj
init the fact to yourself. and do what
you can To remedy the defects have
not time to discuss this part of the sub
jcct. Mar: excellent articles on phy-
Steal development have been published
in the last few years in the leading
magazines. and they will repay careful
study Having learned what type of
man You are you will he able TO sec
what Il tailor can do for You. Never
attempt to repair Il defect artificially
unless the art can be wholly con-
ccalcd. Don't pad your shoulders I'M
less you are absolutely certain that the
most prying eye will fail To discover it.
Then make up your mind that you
will never accept suit of clothes that
doesn't fit You: and stick to it. You
will thus do IL service not only to your
self, but TO mankind. If there is IL real
defect in garment do not let any
knight of the shears bluff or bully or
cajolc You into paying for it. Let him
understand your position at the start,
and there will he no trouble.
The following points concerning
Some of the most common and most an
moving of insists, with suggestions Of
the remedies, are derived from CONVEX
sations with one of the most slSillful
cutters i'll this city, and from your own
painful experience. When you are be-
ing measured for IL suit of clothes as
sumo Il natural position. DO not at
temp; To conceal any of the ecccntrici-
ties of .your figure. If You have an
idea that your right shoulder is lower
than your left, don't try to even them
mp b. yoar posture. If you are bow
legged don't press your knees together
from sentiment of false shame.
Don't initiate Your chest to the point of
explosion because you like to hear a
Herculcan measure called out to the
clerk.
Tell the cutter clearly and concisely
the effects which you desire, and see
that he make memoranda, If he puts

bread rabbit expression" signifying a
total lack of interest in the subject You
may be sure that he intends to cut the
cloth entirely by system. In that case
you have about one chance in n thou
sand of being fitted. Let the cutter
understand that you want the clothes
for some mythical average man. If YOU
have had trouble IN getting suited here
toiorc, describe it.
After the cutter has done his work
there comes the man who makes up the
suit, and he frequently ruins garments
that have been properly cut. That is
why two snits made OF the same meas
