makes it difficult to predict to a certainty
what special lines of dress will be favor
ties this winter. although the boundaries
within which dressers in good form must
keep can be laid down.
A resume of the entire situation in dress
may first be given, and the most noticea-
bic point is the evidence of return to
less color and to more black and white in
our dress. The fancy f1anne1s, loud shirts
and brilliant neckwear have about killed

haberdashery subdued tints will be the
tendency. Two, or possibly three excep-
tons may be mentioned to this rule

will have the round point cuff attached.
The plain VIII te linen shirt is the ia ashton
able thing and should open down the

bosom should be as great as possible.
