DAINTY MALE ATTIRE
Chicago Woman Advocates Radical
Reicrm IN the DT S, OF Men.
Holds Up Jefferson n Model and
Urges the BsScaI.-nE Of StIR
shirt Fronts and High
Standing Collars.

Dainty muslin and lace neckwear
for men such as Thomas jefferson
used To wear was advocated by Mrs.
Daniel NJ. Lord at a meeting of the
Chicago South Side Woman's club.
\ Rembrandt hair cut also would
tend tn make men more attractive,
the speaker thought. The Rembrandt
syle in hair she believed would never
be acceptable To men, though it GER
tainly Was beautiful AND picturesque.
The neckwear suggestions, Mrs.
Lord maintained, would be more
readily embraced by men because, as
she said, Il can't believe there is
man living who is comfortable in n
stiir bosom shirt and high starched
collar"
And now, right here, | would like
to say" she continued, that when
my husband heard this bit of my pa
per crticiSing mems dress, he
breathcd such fcrvent amen that
| became hopeful for all mankind"
The subject was Dress" beginning
at the time when Adam and Eve wore
none, and proceeding down TO the
present period.
Women are more sensible to-day
than men," Mrs. Lord said. They
wear practical shoes, skirts and shirt
waists. They have discarded the
tight corset, the hoop skirt, the dis
figuring hustle, and the useless paa-
talette. And now turn To mems dress,
their unyentilated hats, producing
badness, and those terrible stitf
shirts. They should wear ncgligec
shtr'> IN business hours and at dress
affairs they could do no better than
try Ia look rs much as possible like
Thomas jefferson, who was always
beeumugly and beautifully arraycd.'

English NobIeman Caught Robbing
His Own Wine Cellar.
After FruitIeSs Efforts to Detect the
Thief. "A System OF Elect rlr Bells
Reveals the AmuAinE Fea-
ture of the situation,

A rather amusing mystery in high
life has just leaked out at London. y
certain nobleman was recently in
formed by his butler of an inexplica-
BILE leakage in his wine cellar. Bot
ties of rare wines were constantly
disappearing. The servants, most OF
whom had been with the family for
many years, all avowed they knew
nothing about it.
AT last the matter became SO seri-
Gus that Scotland Yard was consult
ed. A detective officer took up his
residence in the mansion, but during
his sojourn nothing happened to ex-
cite suspicion. After he had gone,
however, bottles of wine began dis
appearing again. The servants grew
frightened. Ills lordship was per-
picked, and consulted an electrical
expert, who arranged network OF
wires in the cellars, connecting with
bells IN different parts of The house,
The wires were So crossed that it
was impossible for anyone TO move
between the shelves without disturb
ing them and set the bells ringing.
For several nights the perturbed
household lay awake with their ears
wide open and nerves on the stretch,
but nothing happened, Peace reigned
ill one night, tinkle, tinklc went the
bells. The whole house stan arose
armed itself with various weapons
and descended to the basement. The
cellar door was opened and n lamp
flashed into the subterranean cham
Der. Behold, there was his lordship
himself, clad in paiamas, helping him
self To Il bottle of wine.
A hush fell upon the servants, for
it was easy to see that their master
was walking in his sleep. His valet
followed him upstairs to lumber
room ON the roof, where all the miss
ing bottles were found unopened.

privacy of his home should be rs sacred

dinner the other evening his majesty
declared his dislike for all interviews
and other journalistic personalities.
Twice in the last two weeks has the
king taken active steps TO carry out a
new plan in this regard. When DUAL
