I§ all depends on the man, say we, witness the fact that the three great dandies of history, Beau Brummel, itean Nash and d Orsay were far from the possession of big incomes In fact Brummell and d'Orsay, say the historians, died in poverty. But f erty or no poverty, the fact ree tains that the three dandies kept up an appearance on mail nceomes that made them known us “‘the best-dressed nf@&an’’. Beau Brummel, of humble origin, attained such surtorial perfection and distinction of bearing that many u high-borm damsel felt ber heart go pittypat when the perfect beau bent over her hand. Two big elements entered into the perfection of Beau Brummel's attire, shiny shoe blacking and plenty of starch for his immaculate eravats, Beau's manner of wearing cravats is inimitat He spent hours adjusting this em of dress, and it is recorded that a mornng visitor met the Beau's valet bearing an mmense tray filled with cravats, which were explained as the morning's failures. It was not so much the cravat as Beau's manner of wearing it that won for it undying fame. It was not so much what Beay Brumme! wore us manner in which he wo it that counted re which brings us back to the starting point of our little discourse—it all depends on the man Speaking of cravats and the like reminds us hat we have before us several inquiries concerning the proper way to wear the tie with the wing eollar for formal occasions. Altho there are some men who please their own fancy in this matter, not because they are not conversant with the etiquet of dress, but be se they fer to be independent (7), there ly one proper way to wear the tie itside the wings, s really « that is SHOPPING TIPS Concessionaires who operate bathhouses, swimming pools, ete., will be interested in a line bathing suits that include two hundred and fifty styles for men, women and children. This line, in cluding many picturesyue bathing caps and smart-looking shoes, is illustrated and described in a pamphlet sent out by the manufacturer, who offers very tempting prices. Pamphlets will be sent on request. The same concern is sending out illustrated descriptive matter pertaining to bath and lounging robes for men, women and children, which will be sent on request to The Shopper.

Matching the earrings is a generous necklace of crystals, to say nothing of bracelets. Chinese jade and coral are equally popular, SCOTLAND DOES ITS BIT FOR THE MODE Of course, one can’t be frivolous all the time. We must have our sensible hours when nothing but the sports suit will suit our mood. to ultra smart we don a two-piece of Stuart plaid, with pleated skirt and effect jacket, with which we wear a arf. Or may prefer one of those costumes of invisible plaid, composed of a and a detachable cape. A very practical made of Rob Roy Tartan, the skirt buttoning from waist to hem and the jacket of jaunty hip length with patch envelope pockets.

It is no unusual thing to see on display a suit piped and belted in scarlet, and at the evening function one sees many variations of red, including flame. newest frocks are very simple in line, Dut each carries a touch of sophistication. Sometimes the fullness of the skirt is drawn into a bow that is tied squarely in the front or a scarf falls from the simply rounded neckline im somewhat daring length. Again a gown of decided simplicity will startle with two immense jabots falling from the neck and waist into bold folds that effect a longer in frort than in back line. Another tailleur frock has a cape-like drapery cut in one piece with the bodice and falling in box pleats in front and back of the left shoulder Vionnet’s Chanel relieves the simplicity of evening gowns with bright embroideries, ostrich bandings or flowers of a contrasting nature. It sounds very eimple to mention contrasting trimmings of this type, but the manner of using them is far from simple; it is lavish and unusual. SIDE GLANCES (Continued from page 40) that the joys of making Christmas goodies had much to do with Mrs Wright’s departure, much of her hurry could be ascribed to the fact that Mme.
