 To utter the name Le Bargy is al- most as if you said Beau Brummel. The popular actor of the Comedie Franchise is the ''arbiter elegantiarum" of the masculine world of Paris. To be we'll dressed means that you follow after Le Bargy. When the Marquis de Priola was put upon the stage of the Nationa. Theatre Ia jeunesse doree" noted the manner of tie which encircled the neck of the Parisian Don Juan. And at that moment was born a new tie--the "Pri- ola cravat" Self-respecting shops placed it in the forefront of their lat est fashions, for men and youth and old age dispute for its possession. No man felt fully dressed without the Priola cravat.
 A Tie That Ties Itself.
 NJ. Le Bargy, however, has made still more startling discovery. which has caused tremor of excitement to pass over the Boulevards.
 Hitherto 1t has been supposed that, provided your evening tie was clean, it's exact shape and style was matter of more or less indifference. Men of unblemished character went into so- ciety with their evening bows tied with  accused them of buying them ready made. verify believe they would hard ly have been ashamed, writes the Paris correspondent of Pall Mall Gazette. It would certainly have led to no early morning meeting by the Great Wheel, with coffee and pistols for two. It has been left to our great histrion, to our priceless Le Bargy, to point out the error of our ways. For a tie to be symmetrical Is vulgar it is worse--it Is bourgeoise. Can you not see how we have all squirmed under this awful pronouncement? The tying of an even ing bow has been elevated into a re- ligion by Sartor-Sartorius H. Le Bargy. He selects a piece of muslin of the re- quired shape, and, without looking in the glass, attaches it to the base of his collar with few delft movements. The Le Bargy tie ties itself. There is a picturesque air of confusion about it.. It seems to have grown there by acci- dent, without any particular thought. It is ''neglige," 1t is almost noncha- lant, it has the smallest strain re- ligion by Sartor- -Sartorius M. Le Bargy tie in the full flower of it's beauty-a hot house plant surely. but growing with the wild freedom of the dogrose.
 The Words of Brummel.
 As you imagine. M. Le Bargy realizes the responsibilities of his position. He has not jeopardiZed his reputation with out due care and consideration. He knows that thousands of his less en- frightened brethren look to him for sar- torial guidance. And so his dictum on the evening tie has only come as the result of mature reflection. He has even evoked Brummel to his support Said the great master of clothes: "A dandy gives care to his necktie, but never extreme care" NJ. Le Bargy re- suit of mature reflection. He has con- suited the Koran of clothes; he has communed with the Prophet. Who shall be rash enough to hint of the geometrical tie? Naturally, there is an art in 1t, even if you are easily neg lige." You may be too much so, and the cambric may have an after-the- feast effect that you never intended. It needs the masters hand, surely.
