In the words of the ‘man himself: “Since women ‘buy most of the suits men wear, they might as well know what a man likes.” The Tailors Aim The ain} of a good tailor and a good suit, understand, is to make a man look handsomely casual.’ “With ‘wrinkles,” explained Mervine Levine, Fifth Ave. tailor, who dresses some of Manhattan’s bet-ter-dressed scions—especially those whose fashion-consciousness also permits of financial cautiousness. “Wrinkles belong in the right places.

|that I love him. He seemed to
change although we continued see~ ing each other.
A few weeks ago I found out he was going with someone else, and we have never had another date. I asked him what wrong and: told him that I cared for him. I told him that if he didn’t care. for me
