The latest thing in gentlemen's

dark material to go with the shirt
waist, now becoming popular among
dreSSy people. Illustrated styles show
the beauty Of the manly form in the
attire of the ballet girl, save the
pants, which are the same old style OF
trousers that have adorned the neither
limbs of men in this country for To-,
these many years. Just imagine an
Anticipated beau, with bald head and
a superfuity of fat making his obei-
