The man in green is the most exclu-
sive and conspicuous dresser of the
season His suit is of bottle green.
He got the idea from Paris, and his
distinction lies in the way he carries
out his color scheme. His hat is
shade of green, his gloves and hand
kerchief little lighter. He wears
light green shirt, with suspenders OF
the same color. His tie is distinctly
darker, but still green Even his un-
derwear. 1t is said by Mems Wear,
harmoniZes with the shade of his suit.
Brown. while not so extreme. is the
most popular color of the season. In
some shades the demand has been SO
heavy that the stock of cloth Is ex-
hausted. Green tones with grays also
are seen frequently, but there are few
plaids. Blues, of course. are always
correct. But, whatever the color of the
suit, the accessories must match.
Coats for business wear are little
shorter than they were last year. The
back slit is retained, but in some styles
the curve at the waist has been elm
mated. As a further contrast to the
f1aring skirt formerly in vogue, the
chest Is cut extremely full. and the
sleeves are large at the top. The
business cutaway is made with or
without pockets. Gray mixtures are
popular In the cutaway, and one style
Is made so that 1t looks like sack

The vest is cut even with the coat

Designed to solve the problem Of the
scarcity of manageable young wom-
en- In the Pacific northwest is the
Spokane Affinity club. just organized
in Spokane by twenty-three bachelors
under thirty years Of age, says Spo-
kane dispatch to the Chicago Post
President Brown of the club said at
the close Of the organization meeting:
THE purpose Of the club IL to pro-
vide wives for the eligible young men
of this Spokane country by inducing
the girls to come into the district
There is great scarcity Of young
women In the northwest. am not
overstating the fact when ! say that
5000 women between the ages Of
twenty and thirty years could find
good husbands and comfortable homes
In Spokane alone.
This may seem an extravagant
statement In city of nearly 100000
population, but the fact is the young
meu have come into the city In such
large numbers during the last eighteen
mouths that there are not sufficient
girls to go around.
The first step In the campaign to
bring young women into the country
will be to write to our friends and ac'
auaintances In the old homes in the
middle western. eastern. southern and
New England states and eastern Cana
da. urging them to come to the north
west. and then prevail upon them to
write to their girl acqualntances. In
that way chain system will be es.
tablished aud the problem finally
solved"
President Brown added that any
man between the ages of twenty
and forty years, industrious and OF
good character aud possessed of at
least 81 600 or its equivalent in realty,
h eligible to membership In the club.

Dolls Far Teaching Children.

Dolls are to play an attractive part
In the education of children in the pri-
mary grades in Springfield. Mass, and
instead of learning by heart dry facts
about different peoples the boys and
girls will study the most fascinating
dolls imaginable. the dolls being at
tired to illustrate child life in different
countries. No longer will the pupils
think of Switzerland as land where
clocks and mountains are made" but
they will regard II as the home of real
boys and girls. China will mean some
thing to them besides a country from
which laundries spring. Arabia will be
more than the land Of horses. In fact,
each country will take Oh new interest
because Of these representative dolls.

Newfoundland fishermen connected
with the whaling industry have been
conducting series of experiments in
an attempt TO make whale leather
commercial product and are said TO be
meeting with some success. The aver
age whale hide covers a surface of
about 1900 square feet, a square foot
Of the hide weighing from two to five
ounces and being valued as high as 30
cents. The leather is exceedingly
tough and is said to possess great
wearing qualities. thereby being pecul-
iarly adapted to the covering of furni-
ture, carriage tops and seats and to
automobile purposes. 1t is also said
that the leather can be used for boots
and shoes Leather made from the
intestines of the whale resembles kid
and Is extremely thin and tough.
