While evening clothes have fallen

ornateness In the "details of dress
more chic" as the French phrase it
with intuitiye perception of the right
word--they have not changed III the
essentials
To dress "smarly" one must still
dress simply, and conspicuousness
must always be subordinated to CON
eentionality. In his lounge dress a
man may go almost as far as he likes
in evening dress he may go so far
aud no farther
Whatever distinction one gains
must come from the apt knotting of a
tie. characterize studs and links. the
perch Of his hat. the "waisty'' curve
