The mode is elastic. It stretches,
and it conforms to the requirements of
the age and of the season. 1t reflects
the customs and the habits of the peo-
iple, and it indicates b presence CT the
particular sport hat for the time being
lis in the ascendency. When the times
are settled and men go along from one
season to another without changing in
bany very important detail their habits
Of life, dress is not likely to be sub
Gected to any radical changes. When
our country went to war, there was an
immediate demand for things a la
militaire from b stay at homes as
well as the fighters. In the very decid-
ed military cut of multi clothes we can
still find a reminder of the Spanish
IAmerican skirmish. The broad Shout
rdered, small wasted man is from the
model issued from West Point. The
Hong, full skirted top coats and the
short, springy jackets are purely mill
ftary in their general appearance. The
erect body with the military shoulders
and chest conformation, says Haber-
idasher, is particularly adapted to h
new clothes, and so long as the vogue
sanctions athletics and adores militia
rism man will dress in smartly cut,
close fitting clothes.
s. Men who adhere to following the ex-
Nremes of fashion have carried the
military jacket and peg top trousers to
limits hat are not, to say the least,
Conducive Of artistic results. These Ill
ira jackets and trousers are unsightly.
The newest models for spring show
livery marked departures in two impor-
Aant respects. The first is the length
Eof Jackets, the second is in the u of
Jackets. The new Jackets will have
flour buttons, with the front slightly
tcut away. The spring will be less de-
lcided han the prevailing model, and
the coat will be long enough to cover
the buttocks. Trousers will be cut to
lconform to the new jacket lines, and
this means less of the peg top look.
THE trousers will not be quite so full
about the knee ard thighs. The bot
toms will be cut to slope from the back
ito the front and will be about 9h inch
les larger than the shoe size. In all
Iouting and negligee suits the rousers
Twill be made with a finished turn up at
1.-THE bottom which will be from ~ to 2
inches wide. All trousers designed for
wear without a coat will be made with
3@--4 IS- $3.50 49, 49, o+,o-
and buckle at the back. The belt loops
will provide for a belt not over ~
inches wide and will be placed in the
center of the front, center of the back
land over each hip bone. This is four
loops. Some Of the trousers will have
"a V at the top of the side seam. This
Twill be about two inches deep. It will
lc1ose with a very small buckle and
5strap. These side straps give a smooth
!back and front to trousers.
IL The fancy fannels which were SO
Ecommon last summer will not figure in
the wardrobe of the we'll dressed man
las extensively as they did last year..
The suit that will take their place is
made Of a very light serge, which is in
the lark blue tone, with almost inviSi-
(ble stripes of green, red or white rum
ming through it. These new serges are
Also in the popular flannel tones, but
fall of the effects are very much sub
dued. Another suiting that will be
popular is the homespun. These are
Fin the natural light gray tones, with
the natural black and brown knots
there and there. The gray plaids in
Worsted and cheviots n the new
brown and heather tone tweeds will
sa1so be in somewhere in the neighbor-
hood Of 1.-The finish" Blue serge suits
made with the double breasted three
Ebuttoned jacket will find a place in ev-
iery wardrobe. It is a good, handy
suit and can be worn as it comes from
the tailors or with different trousers.
lCombination suits of black jackets and
fancy trousers will also be in good
form. .
The waistcoats will practically be
abandoned next summer, and we will
have the negIigee shirt in it's place.
The coatless man is an impossibility.
The negligee shirts will be of two
ikinds-the plain and the plated. The
fin trade is preparing to give the
plated shirt the most enthusiastic
backing. The best model is the closely
plated front, With the pIaltS not over
III inch wide. The bosoms will have
a square end and will be long enough
to tuck in the trousers-that is, the
end will be out of sight.
& There is no doubt that the high band
collar will be the only style that will
he in good form with the negligee shirt.
These collars will be good in all heights
up to 21a inches. They will be made
with the extension band and the lap
over band and with wide as well as
with narrow stitching. The round cor
nered. closely spaced outer fold will be
