But if you want to make it?

Fancy Corks

Fancy pouring corks prevent spilling, escape of fizx or aroma besides adding a distinctive touch to the recreation room bar,

a folding tool kit, hardly six inches long, to fit in the pocket of the car.

A Zipper Leather Case

Also for the motorist or incessant picnicker there is a zipper leather case that holds two thermos bottles upright, and a metal sandwich box. The camp cook will like an outdoor chef's outfit, in & handy roll-up | case, containing a hot-pot lifter, al- | ways dry pepper and salt shaker,

For winter hunters, there's a |

hunter's carry-all with everything |:

he'll need for a day with dog and | gun—space for shells, bird calls, food containers and complete gun | cleaning equipment, together with | waterproof match box, game car- | riers, bottle and cups. If he keeps bottles around, you can spend only a dollar and give | him a useful pouring cork, deco- | rated with a dog or horse head, that keeps the fizzle and aroma in the bottle after it has been opened, and doesn't let drops trickle down the bottle, For the bachelor host, a glass beer cooler with nickel frame inside, to hold four bottles upright, will be

a happy gift, particularly if he's out |

in the country, away from his automatic icebox.

At home or the office an elegant desk cigaret box with two drawers and a touch tip lighter, would be convenient. And there's a new cigaret box with cork lining, like a cigar humidor, to keep the cigarets fresh and moist. For the man who is burdened with dressy scarfs which don’t keep him warm outdoors, there's a long camel hair shawl scarf, ideal for winter sports and motoring. Better even than fur lined gloves is the double glove, leather outside, and a completely removable wool glove that fits neatly inside. They may be worn both at once, or just the wool ones while hiking, or the kic pair in town. A new oiled silk golf jacket for wet days and sudden showers rolls up into a small bag, weighs only seven ounces and will not harden, stick or peel.

If it’s indoor sports he prefers, there are grand trick bottles for liquors, a new thermos cocktail

The new style leather belts come in attractive boxes of inlaid wood that hold cigarets after the belt has been Temoved,

A sturdy manicure set in a handy leather case is something that every man wants and needs but he will never buy for himself,

Variety in Leather Gifts

Ties in jewel tones, to match the stones in his new cuff links, would make a big hit, and every man loves | his accessories to match. Even with plaid going up the social scale into fine flannel robes, the fastidious lounger would admire a smart black flannel double-breasted robe, with big white pearl buttons and a black and white checked scarf, This over cotn colored silk brocade pajamas would keep any man home by the fireside any evening. If you man lives where wool lounge things are too warm, he'll appreciate a silk foulard cocktail suit, with short coat and plain color trousers.
