SHOPPING FOR The
WELL DRESSED MAN

Robert Lloyd Trevor, in Vanity Fair
for November. says:
Some time ago, but not so long ago |
that the day may not be remembered |
by the oldest inhabitant the shirt
makers were vulgarly speaking, "up
against it, II was when the manu-
facturcr's ambition was to make money
instead of to improve the appearance
of somewhat reckless public. as they
now love to do. There was group
of them sitting late ono night In the
lobby of ono OF our biggest hotels
or perhaps they we're in the bar-and
they worried. round by round. over
the fact that although people bought
shirts. they didn't buy enough shirts
The problem was to invent some shirt
that would sell itself by virtue OF its
novelty. Il was an ugly situation.
And as they worried, so their spirits
went down.
History does not relate how long
they sat there. The important fact is
that the meeting was finally broken
up by a member OF the party jumping
TO his feet. waving his arms, and
shouting. "Ive got IT," What he had
got. no one could discover, because he
Immediately fed. But a week later
he put on the market the first shirts
with soft cuffs The innovation was
a success. All his competitors fol-
lowed suit-in his hurry he had for
gotten to patent his invention-and
for years the market was inundated
with soft cuff shirts. Everybody
bought them because everybody else
did, and because the makers said they
were comfortable and handsome.
The vogue of the soft cuff has been
/ immense, but at last II is on the wane,
and I for one am glad to be able 10
report the fact. The soft cuff was not
handsome; II was hot in summer; It
crumpled In an hour or two; It alb
sorbed, like a sponge, every atom OF
dust with which IL came in contact
and was, altogether, far from de-
sirable. II has begun to go The stiff

"The Pauline Monastery, home Of the

MRS. BRAsHEARS INDICATED.
Jury Does Not Grant Damages In
$4,000 sInnder suit.

A jury in the United States District
Court In the $4,000 Islander suit brought
by Mrs. Marion w. Brashears formerly
OF Portland, Ore. against Mrs, Susan u.
Smith, the Hetty Green OF the North
west" indicated the plaintiffs character.
but refused to give her any damages.
Mrs. Brashears charged the defendant
with spreading scandalous stories con-
corning the plaintiffs conduct with certain
men, including the Rev Hudson Baker, a
Young clergyman Of Portland, ore. II
later developed that Mrs Smith repeated
these stories to her protege, Miss Case, a
concert singer for the alleged purpose Of
warning the latter against being too
friendly with the plaintiff
In accordance with the instructions al
Judge A. y Hand the jury held that the
defendant was privileged TO repeat the
second hand stories TO her protege II she
was sincere in her desire TO protect the
girl. The jury preferred to believe that
this was Mrs, Smiths only motive for re-
peating the gossip.
Mrs Brashears is now the secretary OF
the Favary Tire and Cushion Company OF
III Broadway. Mrs, Smith recently
moved from Portland, ore, to Shelby
VILE. Ky.
