Any prophet Of fashion that predicts a

There rave been many freak coats put on
the market during the last two seasons.
but men who dress well a the same
delight in avoiding these eccentricities as
others find in selecting the most bizarre
specimens. Take this style Of a sack for
instance: The long body has three vents,
every one of them at least seven inches
deep: a cuff runs all the way around the
sleeve with the exception Of the space left
at the back in which the buttons show.
thus combining the vent with four buttons
and the cuff; over the hips b ordinary

an inlaid plat with an accordion effect
which looks as IL It could be pulled out

the pockets are put on at an angle and the
seams stitched and q Zap is added at every
possible and impossible point.
Such is the type Of a sack coat which has
