o A man is allowed a little latitude
with q dinner coat. popular way OF
\ tying the batwing, and one much in
! vogue this autumn, is to give the mar
row part two twists, so as to make a
knot almost similar in effect to that OF
4 the evening tie, These ties, when ad-
Justed, appear double at the enos and
. are picturesque and bouffant. The
: prices range from S1.25 to 50 at the best
haberdashers'.
The all-round or banded turned down
collar is worn with the dinner coat.
All the rundown collars have rounded
ends.
The evening glove is divided into two
classes, the dancing and the opera.
The gloves for dancing are made of a
lighter kid. The shade is white or q
very light pearl gray. The stitching is
in white or pearl gray, and they are
buttoned with one large mother of
pearl button. Gloves with brass or
metal clasps are not fashionable.
Opera gloves are a little heavier and
are of light pearl gray. Prices are
from SO up at the most fashionable
places.
Hose for evening wear is black, OF
silk or Isle thread. Silk hose is ex-
pensive, but good investment.
There is no change in the shape oil
the opera hat, which is indispensable
for theaters, evening affairs of al
kinds and with evening dress. A goot
opera hat will last several years if yol
. do not shut it up when not in actua
= use, but keep it open in a band box
,. This prevents the creasing of the silk
:, The overcoat of the hour is the Rag
- Ian. 1t has been adopted for evening
wear as well as for the street TIL
y Raglan was originally intended for tn
country, and it is the only overcoat
= man can wear while riding. 1t is
: long, loose garment, practically withou
: shape. Those for evening wear ar
made of black waterproof cloth and ar
modulated little at the waist, to Civ,
: them smarter appearance. 1t is ex
tremely easy to take on and off
For the afternoon it is a bit ungainlj
in look, but it is the one novelty of the
season.
r The boot of the year is made of black
5 leather. Patent leather boots, how
ever, are in vogue for afternoon dress
| with frock coat and top hat. All new
boots have rounded toes and are but
5 toned.
Silk Ties.
The tie, or cravat, or scarf for the
morning and the afternoon is most at
tractive, and several shapes and styles
are in fashion. Combinations of black
and white are just now very much the
: vogue. All the fashionable haberdash-
ers import squares of silk, and they
guarantee that no two are alike in col
or or pattern. These squares cost s.
and Sc. From them a man can have
made an Ascot, club tie or an Ascot
and four-in-hand.
The narrow four-in-hands and even
the fiat scarfs, economically folded
: are coming back in favor. These lat
ter are also narrow and show bit of
the shirt bosom on the sides Dark
greens and reds, and even purple, are
, exhibited at the best shops. The fav-
orite designs are, as already stated, in
: black and white, next in favor being
purple and black.
For the younger class of men, for the
, afternoon, with frock coat, the Ascot
will be much worn. The cravats have
long, wide ends, and in arranging them
they should be pulled a bit on the left
side and fastened with gold bar safety
pin. With the four-in-hands thin pin
is worn below the knot. The clul
ties go with the business, lounge OF
sack suits of the morning, and some oi
these are a bit more fantastic in com
bination of colors and patterns. 1hey
! are nearly all made in the square end
! or bat wing, shape or else in the very
pointed end. They are tied in a small
knot in the middle. They are always
> worn with the rundown all around col.
lar. The four-in-hand is likewise seen
with this same style of collar, giving tc
many of the men somewhat of the look
of an Elton boy.
Many Of these are of plain black
r quite narrow. A few have attempted
cherries and reds, and there is also a
club tie in the market with pointed
ends and bound in black silk with
= vivid center pattern. have only seen
this last in a few shop windows.
Ascots can be purchased from 81 to
SO, If not bought from the square, but
} singly. With the Ascot the tall
/ straight collar is worn. There are a
few men who have taken up the wing
collars, but the tall, straight and the
all-around are favorites. Cuffs are mar
row and square.
The street gloves are of heavy tan,
in browns and reds, and buttoned, not
clasped. There is an effort to keep
the gray suede glove fashion. II has
been all the vogue in Paris this last
i spring, and many men contend that 1t
is the only glove to be worn in the
afternoon with frock coat. Gloves
vary in price according to the make
and the place where you buy them.
