POOR TAIL0R's MANY TRIALS
Is Supposed to Take imperfect Anato-

duce Perfect Figure.

Men tailors have trouble with shoul.
ders, Wristbands and legs, but legs are
the worst. There isn't one man In ten
who can make an affidavit that he Is
neither knockkneed nor boWlegged.
Perfectly straight legs are rare. It's
an art to shape fabrics over bowlegs
SO that they will not show and no joke
to hide the bends of knock-knees.
When a man begins to take on
weight it shows first at the belt line,
then on the shoulders and upper arms.
Later 1t gets down to the legs. In the
meantime the tailor has his trouble In
keeping his customer from looking top
heavy. The tailor Is supposed to take
an imperfect anatomy and shape gar
ments over 1t with such nicely as to
produce superb figure. It's trying
job.
Legs that are overlong are sources OF
some complaint. The waistcoat has to
be dropped an inch or two In cases
like this. There are knees which are
80 per cent. larger than they ought to
be--great knuckles Of bone that are
hard to hide. Then there's the thigh
three times larger at the upper end
than at the other. Men created on
this model ought to be permitted to
wear full-seated knickerbockers.

the following incident In reference to
