NOT FOR YOU, MISS.
gTYLES AND FASHIONS THAT MEN
WILL WEAR NEXT FALL.


The man who wants to dress we'll and
who knows how may he counted on to fol-
low moro or less closely the established
styles of the season. and he will have less
reason to complain this fall than for many
years. The standard fashion plates for
mems clothes are based on the observation
of trained artists and the advice of leading
tailOrs. If few men who are known to
have good taste in their clothes take up
certain style and force it, the tailors are
pretty certain to adopt it.
Mems fashions, after an unprecedented
display Of flcEleness, have suddenly become
scdatC sensible and modest. The changes
that have been made arc for the better.
The predominant cOlOrs in fabrics will be
blues. browns and brown green mixtures.
Grays will be much less popular than last
season, but mixtures and fancy designs in
stripes, checks and plaidS will be more gen
orally worn than they have been for years.
The Chesterfield or fly front oversack will
be the popular OverCoat of the season. 1t
will be made from a large variety of fab
RIGS, chief among which are rough mix
lures in lambs woods, ChCviots wOrStcds
and vicunas in browns and mixtures.
The Chesterfield this year will be cut quite
sharply in the back, though it will not be
close fitting, and it will be sprung well
out over the hips to show moderate
amount of bottom fullness. The length
for n man of average height feet
inches, will range from 40 to fl inches.
