Of the same material. Whether these
will "take'' with the public or not.
remains to be seen. AS a matter of
fact, there is nothing particularly new
about them, as anyone may remember
who used to wear the old-fashioned
bosom" shirt with starched cuffs that
might be removed or turned around at
will.
However, as a sort of compromise
between the negligee and the stiff
shirt, the fall market is provided with
a linen shirt with short, starched
bosom, which affords the desired de-
gree OF comfort in cool or cold weather,
and is likely to increase the demand
for wing collars.
or course, any number OF silk and
silk-and-linen shirts, and other fancy
makes, are on the list for the coming
season. Even the small shops, and the
big department stores that cater to the
popular demand, will have them ready
for fall, at prices for the most part
below those that have formerly pre-
vailed in these fine fabrics. In fact,
the buyer may make selection from an
innumerable, indescribable variety, as
regards both fabrics and prices.
In collars, there is hardly any no.
ticeable difference between those de-
signed for the approaching season and
those Of last year. One marked
change. however, is forcing itself into

GLOVES.


An extraordinary variety of mater.

mems wear during the approaching
season, including glace kid, chevrette.
suede, reindeer skin, channels, cape,
mocha and doeskin- These are made
In practically the same shapes, with
three darts on the back and outside
seams. For the most part, they are
fastened with two buttons, bearing the
name Of the maker: although some
may be seen with clasps instead Of
buttons.
Fur gloves, for motoring wear, etc,
are also to be found In remarkable
variety for winter use. including rae
coon skin, natural muskrat, blended
muskrat, Persian lamh. electric seal,
Hudson seal, near seal, Thlbet buffalo,

For ordinary business wear and Pc

those who wear oxfords or pumps, dis

SOX.
The demand for the higher grade Of
sox continues to increase with a steadi-
ness that Is pleasing to many dealers
and manufacturers as well 1t Is
demand, too. that the general public
has entered into without hesitation.
for this higher grade footwear can now

makes Of hosiery that contain neither
silk nor lisle-thread, and these will
always hold their own, especially dur
ing cold weather.
A novelty in the line Of hosiery, pre-
pared for the fall trade, is a silk or
stIk-and-li sle sock with cashmere sole.
It Is claimed that this Will outwear
the usual silk or combination hose and
that the cashmere will more readily
absorb the Precipitation Of the foot.
UNDERWEAR
Some dealers declare that the ad-
vent Of cool weather win in no way
affect the popularity Of the so-called
athletic" union suits, meaning the
sort that have no sleeves, and reach
only to the knees. But others asserts
that while this may be 50, in regard
to young chaps with athletic ambi-
tons. full-length suits Will have the
call, both in union and two-piece gar
ments- OF course, this matter is one
Of purely personal preference, both as
to material and style. Underwear
made up for the fan and winter season
comprises linens, twills, nainsook, cam
brio, madras, silk and other fabrics,
including cotton, woolens and balbrig-
gans. There is no question that the
union suit Is gaining steadily in popu-
larity, for it has many points In its
favor and only one to its disadvantage.
| And this may be obviated by securing
a proper fit when purchasing, and by
selecting material that will not shrink
even under the cruel treatment OF the
steam laundry.

that the soft shirt will be laid aside
soon, and many handsome semi-stiff

Figures seem to be limited in fall and
winter shirtings. Madras, linen, silk,
silk-and-linen, percales soisettes,

Yet, as compared with last year,
little elimination is noticeable in the
call for autumn and winter negligee.
Both soft and starched cuffs, single
and double, are included in this de-
mand, which requires an ever-increas-
ing percentage of silk and silk-and-

percentage of these are made, in popu-

Editor Courier:
The gist Of Mr. McGaheys lengthy
article in a recent issue of the Courier
is, Socialism in securing government
ownership and popular management OF
all land and capital would have d
panacea for all our social Ills.
Government ownership of all land and
capital would make everyone laborer
without ambition or aspiration. 1t
would destroy wealth and leave nothing
to possess. 1t would have the people
subse rvient to the government. Then
when you add to the government own
ership plan the popular management
idea YOU have the most fallacious doc
trine ever centered in the mind OF man
You say that under socialism there
will be no investors in factories or
stores as the government will be able
to manage them so much better than
individuals that the latter will be UNI
able to compete. To understand the
business ability of the socialist plan let
us refer to Milwaukee where their ad-
ministration after being given a trial
failed to make good and met the dis
approval of the people.
