The same principle of a defectiveI

plies to appellants next objection, to-
wit: that the time for the commence

Without quoting the allegation Of the

PUSHING A GREAT REFORM
Determined Effort TO Outlaw TrOus-
ers and Hark Back to Sawed
ON Pants.

It is reported from New York that the
attempt to bring in" knee breeches for
men once more. Let us hope that they
will succeed.
OF all the articles OF mems wear, COM
ments the Chicago Tribune, the modern
garment variously known as trousers, OF
pan:aloons, or pants" is the most hideous.
shapeless and inartistie. II is a mongrel
to begin with. Originally IT fitted closely,
as We may see by pictures OF the time OF
Beau Brummel and the regent. With Hes
sian boots, or even with shoes and CATERS,
It was not unhandsome.
But some innovating tailor conceived the
notion that male humanity should be
logged out in modified sailor fashion, and
the tights" which Mr., Pickwick wore
gave way to the monstrosities depicted in
Illustrations Of Thackeray's novels-wide,
shapeless bags, made OF violently checked
cloth, the whole suggesting the taste oil
the stage darby.
Since then we have had many variations
Of the ssrtorial genius. We have had
peg-top trousers and trousers with
Spring bottoms. We have had very
tight trousers and we have had them SC
loose that they tapped in the wind like
signals OF distress. They have been alike
in one particular, however. All have been
hideous. The highest priced trousers ever
made would not compare in comfort anc
sightliness with the knee breeeches which
young hopeful wears today.
Glance at a crowd Of boys playing IN
the street and note the grace and ease
which knee breaches confer even upon tn,
hobbledehoy. Then look at men, with
their pants" lying in wrinkles upon their
shoe tops or turned up 10 keep them out
Of the mud. The comparison will satisfy
anybody Of the superiority OF the knee
breeehes, even II the vanished bicycle
craze had not demonstrated It beyond ques
ton.
Gu sartorial dictators are to be com
mended for their effort to re-establish tn,
use OF a convenient and slightly garment
and IL our fashion leaders have any ar
tistic sense they will lend their aid to IN,
innovation-or rather the restoration.
