Men who spend a great deal Of time on a
yacht find that the tailors are able to sus-
gest many ways in which they may spend
their money. Suits made entirely Of white
duck are intended not only for day wear,
made up In exact imitation Of the dark blue
coat trimmed with braid Is entirely Of fine
white duck. There are double breasted white
flannel suits for the owner Of the yacht.
Since men have taken to wearing fiannels
at all times during the summer the question
Of outing ~flannels has become less important,
1t is only in the matter Of color that mans
dress in the city differs from that which
he wears In the country. The lark blue
and white striped fannels as well as those
OF similar patterns made up originally for
city wear are seen just as often on the
tennis courts or the country club piazzas
as the lighter colored ~fannels. These are
made up chiefly in single breasted ooats
and have stripes and checks in blue. brown
and black on a white ground. The 90 ok

There are, however, men who must always

that suits other men. For these the double
breasted flannel coat has been devised.

generally made up in white flannel without

As a substitute for q belt and to serve
other purposes. some Of the h%aberdashers
have this year imported q large silk hand-
kerchief about twice the size Of the or

white and red and blue pongee. They are
long enough to tie about the average vsiet
and are run, like the belt, throueh ths
straps on the trousers. They are also used
to throw around the neck In tho interyaIs

They are most effective when worn with
