Modes for Men

Among the modes of the moment for men
are simply but effectively colored hand
kerchiefs of French Importation. These
have inch-wide, plain colored edges, with
an .nob and a half wide colored bar just
inside the hem. An extreme novelty I'm
gloves is the buttercup suede, a very soft,
ntaole leather, that is not uncomfortably
warm made I'D with embroidery on back,
seif-colored or black, and closing with
single large white pearl button. Then
there are lightweight chevrette gloves, in
male tan and sefton shades, and tan pique
stitched gloves, with single points, either
red or self-colored, and for automobiling
la heavy Isle, the palms reinforced with
tan or black grip" leather, durable but
not warm.
In neckwear in addition to the conven-
tional navy and white foulard scarfs, white
grounds, with highly colored medium fig
ures, are very popular, and are, Indeed an
Improvement over the stiff ana unsightly
cotton affairs so much affected last year.
A neat scarf that may be worn with any
light waistooat is a three and half inch
reversible foulard Ascot in navy ground,
showing white spots fairly close together
All shades and hues of steel grays, Oxford
and Cambridge mixtures and blacks and
whites are in favor, too and there Is a
slight indication of a return to Persian
effects. Foulards, grenadines and very
light summer silks are "the thing for
the next three months.
Various tones Of gray, too, are the most
sought for in fancy shirts. Though 1t IS

average man and does not carry much

ing ccol. and in fine imported goods espe-
ciany It Is having a great run. The newest
neglige shirts in white madras are re-
lNeved by delicate black lines, the GUNS be-
ing white and double or turned back.
pleated bosoms are not quite so much m
demand this year as last, possibly because
few laundries could be found that were
successful with them. But when worn, the
fad now IS to have a delicate stripe direct
| ly down the middle or on the edge Of the
pleat, either of which gives natty ano
pleasing effect. White and fancy vests are
being worn now more than ever before.
Grays and tans are the favorites' the
single breasted style being better liked
than the double.
In hosiery there is nothing so unique anc

with double soles.
In cutter clothing, gray suitings i'm ded

as tho plain materials. are very popular
! this season. Summer dressing gowns are
gradually but surely growing in favor, and
are shown in large meshed madras, in
shades of blue, rose, bun and lilac. Man,
new things, too, are displayed in umbrella

are in the finely carved horn and ivory

slightly hooked.
