In the matter of the hat. there is tendency
to continue wearing not only old ones. but also
to persist in the old styles. There is an ex-
tremely popular shape in Paris. resembling the
Quaker broad brm more than any other object
IL Is black and the brim is rather straight'than
broad. In all other respects the resemblance is
complete. Half the middle-aged and promi-
nent men of Paris keep on wearing this hat
especially literary men, old professors, heavy
financlers. publishers and the editors of news
papers. This tendency to wear in middle life
the form of hat which pleased in youth is only
part OF the very general French leaning to-
ward distinctive uniforms. The shabby frock-
coat. which fits easily on the back and IN which
one feels ut home. is another result of the ten
dency. and the antiquated evening dress suits
of some of the richest subscribers to the opera
are altogether in keeping with the spirit which
puts every man and thing in its place and keeps
them there. AS a nation the French travel less
than any other; average Parisians are scarcely
willing to quit Paris for the scashore in the hot
months. They have their lives IN a certain rut.
and their stereotyped forms of dress are only
outward signs of the inward grace-of being a
Partisan.

gravity. and it is the garb Of editors, deputies
and successful poets.
The adjunct of the stovepipe hat Is even more
essential than the frock coat. 1t is not at all
necessary that the hat be new, or the coat
either, for that matter A man can be quite well
dressed in Paris in old clothes. and he will get
the same respect as if the clothes were new.
All that he must exhibit lie the desire
In describing the appearance of a criminal,
for instance. the Paris papers will say that the
man was correctly dressed" This means that
he wore at least the chapeau -forme. and
either frock coat or a lightweight overcoat of
very much the same shape and appearance to
the casual observer. II anything is needed to
perfect these wellbrushed articles of dress it is
the gloves. the cane and the two-cent button
hole bouquet. A barber is also called in, his
mustache is waxed and the true Partisan is
complete.

has been forced unconsciously toward stand
ardtype. 1t is the type of eccentricity, but the
eccentrlcltv Is quite within the circle.
When you sit in front of Boulevard cafe
all the mea who walk on the street are types as
well as individuals. They do not put too much
thought upon their clothes. because the think
ing has been done for them already long ago.
The ready-made clothing business has not
assumed In Paris the proportions ii has with us.
As a consequence. the extensive advertising Of
cheap suits of the very latest style does not
exist to agitate the average Paris young man.
For him there is no spring style, summer STYLE
autumn style and winter style all determined
by the enterprise of great advertising firms.
The average Young man Of Paris dresses as
well as he can without draining MS purse and
depriving himself of other pleasures. and he
keeps himself neat and even dainty; but the
durable quality of French cloth does not make
1t necessary for him to buy clothes every three
months. These things ell work together to
give even the youth Of Paris uniformity in
dress quite different from the uniformity of
the changing styles Of ready-made clothing In
winter he affects the frock coat very much Just
as his elders do. In summer he wears delicate
tints of trousers, a sack coat and a straw hat
with the gayest possible ribbon. The dis
tinguishing trait Of French sailors is to give a
delicate finish to their work and to make the
garments fit almost too perfectly. The natural
tendency of the "dressy young Partisan is to
wear delicate shades of color and very soft. fine
cloth. Tn. young Partisan is not an athlete
and he has no love of out-of-door sports If
he goes to the country it is rather to gather
Wild flowers along with some young lady. and
to sit in the garden of a suburban or woodland
restaurant singing songs. In this way he keeps
his clothes clean in summer and does not
stretch the knees of his trousers. With economy
his various costumes last him several seasons:
and there Is no more common sign on Paris
streets than the word ''Nettoyago'' cleaning
There Is one final fact in French life which
goes far TO account for what is called the bad
dressing Of Paris men, This is the class sys-
TEN, which still exists in spite of liberty equal
ity and fraternity. Bourgeois is a wide
term and means the ordinary townsmen. who

The tendency toward uniforms pervades every
class of Frenchmen. The Paris BRIDE for
instance. appears in the open streets in the ira
ditiOnal white with the wreath of orange
blossoms. and the groom by her side and the
other guests in open carriages behind NAV all
be seen riding together in the dust and daylight
of Paris in consecrated evening clothes. The
academician has his uniform the officers and
common soldiers have theirs. so, too. have the
coachmen. letter carriers. bank runners, wait
erS. school boys, policemen. horse car drivers
and hotel and private servants. The nurse
maid has her long brisht-co.ored ribbon stream
ers down her back, and j have known a nice
little femme de chambre to cry with yexation
because her American mistress attempted TO do
her the favor of taking off her distinctive
white cap. The cure has his cassock. without
which it is impossible for him to appear. and
