With the Klondike discoveries he went to Alaska and en- gagged in divers enterprises, which prospered him exceedingly. Of late he has given his attention chiefly to min ing, but after a visit of two or three weeks in San Francisco is on his way to Europe. where he intends to spend the winter months, says the Washing ton Post.

Making all allowances for the abOm- inable corset and for skirts that have to be held aside by the hand lest they should impede the movements or gath CT the filtn of the streets, we must still admit, says the New York Medical Journal, that a woman's ordinary at tire is much more comfortable than a mans, particularly in hot weather. When at work men seek relief by talk ing off the coat, but convention has so decreed that a man must not so divest himself when he is not at work. As a protest against this form of conven- tionality we haro ''the shirt waist man. of the newspapers, some of which, by the way, cOnfound that per son with the man in his shirt sleeves It is hoped that the discussion now go- ing on will lead to the adoption of comfortable summer clothing for men. The trouble, We think, lies not so much in the presence of the coat which, indeed, is a protection in the direct rays of the sun, as it does in the close fit of mems garments. \ loose. flowing garb of light texture is what is needeu. To begin with, We doubt i, anything more uncomfortable than the starched, close fitting collar was eyer tamely submitted to Iby mankind al though the 4ats that are commonly worn or oppressive in hot weather. Why should a man hesitate to expose his threat to view? If the fashion of wearing loose, low-cut, rolling col Jar could be brought about, it might. indeed, by inducing men to throw their shoulders back to detract from the prominence of the clavicles, lead to 8 deei d improvement of our ,tyer- age pulmonary development And the collar should not be either a portion of the shirt or a separate article, but part of the outer garment, which garment should be loose. with short, roomy sleeves. and might be gathered at the waist to support the trousers by means of buttons. The objection to belt for holding up the trousers is that it is worn too high, above the crests of the lila, where it necessaril;; congresses the abdomen more than it would were it worn in the natural fur row between the ilias crests and the femoral trochanters. This, of course, would make the top of the trousers too low for appearances, but it might readily be concealed by the short, skirt of the tunic buttoned all the way down.
