AN INVENTOR OF NEcKWEAR
London Professional Who Devotes His
Time to Devising New Shape
and Ties.

In the East End, right in the heart
of the quarter which has become noto-
rious as the homo of the undesirable
alien" there lives and works a man
whose occupation finds no entry in any
directory, official or otherwise, say a
London paper. He is a professional de-
signer of neckties, and there are prob
ably not more than three or four like
him, working as free lances," in the
country, these men being usually en-
ployed by wholesale scarf manufac-
turers and jealousy guarded. His work
is not, of course, the designing of pat
terms of the materials used, that being
in the hands of artists. but consists in
devising new shapes and styles in ty-
ing or fastening.
The world has moved since the days
of the scarf of the "chest p~reserver"
type, and many patterns and shapes
have found a temporary boom and then
passed out of sight. The demand for
new styles is steady and constant and
the free lance" is always i%nventing
novelties. He knows his market. for

be adapted to the higher requirements
of another, SO that he can always get
a good price for his ideas. To get a
good thing in tie shapes that catches
on is to obtain a monopoly that will be
a profitable undertaking for the firm
that has purchased it. There are hum
dreds of notions that are tried, but very
few Of them ever achieve any popular
ity. The most likely ideas, according
to the professional tie designer, are
those that initiate the more expensive
shapes with an economy of material,
this enabling the manufacturers to Of
fer to the middle class buyer an article
which assists him to keep up a reputa-
ton for being smartly dressed, and at
the Same time keep down expenses.

SWEETNESS OF REVENGE.
Young Couple Had a Scheme for En-
joying 1t That Looked Very
Promising.

They did not look like a song-and-
dance team, but they said that they
wanted wooden "clogs," writes Elliott
Flower, in the Chicago Post.
ANY particular kind?' asked the
dealer in theatrical supplies.
NO" replied the young man, lex
cept that we want good, heavy ones"
And We'll have to rely on you en-
tirely," added the young woman. I'VE
don't know anything at all about such
things"
"Ect your instructor should Nave
given you some idea as to what You
need" remarked the dealer.
1--WE have no instructor" said the
young man.
Surely you're not going in for clog
dancing without suitable instruction? ?"
said the dealer.
Were not going in for clog dancing
at ALL" asserted the young woman.
"Well, it's no business of mine, Of
course" said the dealer, very much
mystified, but there are many varie-
ties of clogs, and l could probably suit
you better if l knew what you wanted
Of them"
"Why, the fact is" explained the
young man, after a glance at Che young
woman, we've been living in a fiat
underneath a fellow who has a mania
for regular exercise, but who seems to
be a little too tender to take it out OF
doors. Twice a day during the last win
ter he has put in fifteen or twenty
minutes in a regular tramp from tho
front parlor, down the hall to the
kitchen and back again, after which
he seems to go through a few boxing
or fencing motions that require a con-
siderable shifting of feet on the hard
wood floor. He's one of these fellows
with an exercise fad, and his wife says
it has done him a lot of good, but it
certainly hasn't helped us to enjoy
life"
"But how will the ecxs help your"
"Revenge!" said the young man.
"Revenge!" repeated the dealer. 81
don't see how you can worry him, TN
less you can walk On the ceiling"
"He's going to move May l." ex-
planned the young man.
"What of it,"
Hes going to move into a first fiat"
"Well?"
"Well, as soon as we found his plans
were made, and his lease signed, we
went to considerable trouble to get the
fiat directly over his new one, and yNl
can bet we're going to need a lot of ex-
ercise during the coming year. Now.
just trot out the heaviest and noisiest
clogs you've got. We've got the daily
exercise fad good and plenty, and we're
going to keep in good physical trim Of
any cost to the man underneath"

Leaves the Seeds In.

Some genius, unnecessarily inspired
by the seedless orange. is trying to
evolve a seediess apple. Who wants
a seedless apple? A lot of people in
variably eat the seeds of their apples,
provided the early worm has not an
ticipated them, and what will senti-
mental people do without apple seeds

No Use for Russians.

The Japanese actor, Kawakami, once
played in st. Petersburg, and made
such a good impression that the CA:
gave him a gold watch. The other day,
in Toxic, a pickpocket stole this watch;
but when he found the cars portrait

no use for anything that is Russian"
