sack suits still remains from SO to S3 Inches . for men ' of average height. Shoulders of natural Width and finish are correct and the seams are placed moderately high. The sleevehead Is full and slightly extended. The roll is of moderate length and the fronts close with three or four buttons not quite so close set as the models of last season. The front dip Is' also less extreme than the summer' models. Vents are shown very little and where shown are on the longer coats, and the only a center vent. 7 The trousers still show roominess though thsy are a trifle stralghter than has been In vogue for several seasons. The ' preferred widths era 20 to 20 inches at the knees and 16 to IT Inches bottoms. They should be easy fitting at the hips but not full. It Is well to emphasise that all lapels roll softly and are not to be ironed flat The tendency now is to make coat fronts as pliable and free from stiffening as possible. The stiff coat front Is clumsy. Hard to button and does not lie flat and snug over the chest. The double breasted sacks, while not as popular as in previous winter seasons, are to be reckoned with during the winter months of IMS. These fellow in general contour the single breaated models as to shoulders and back draping. The lapels are peaked or slightly rounded and are moderately long. On these models .flap pockets' are favored. Vests are made either collarless or with the shawl collar and of these the former is vastly more popular and fashionable. Double breasted vests are not recorded this season excepting for evening dress wear. In the most approved models pocket flans are absent. . , In the sack suits the principle fabrics employed are tweeds, cheviots, cssalmeres, velours and soft and medium finished worsteds. The selection of fall

suitings for young men Includes much of

the high colors shown last season, but the popularity of somber grays in business suits Is making Its Influence felt even to the eellege clothes. Some very nobby conceits are planned for the new striped goods and between the smarter cut of the garment and the clever manipulation of the stripes these garments Will be as showy as ever if not so high In color effect. It Is quite significant in the best models of college clothes that the freakish pockets, pocket .flaps, cuff decoration and button treatment are discouraged.

the mandate for simplicity has

rted Itself right Into the enemy's

camp. The English sack coat is destined to perpetuate the popularity It promised last fall, both In college clothes and for

morning business wear. The model ordained for this fall is of full drape and shapllness. This garment will be next la prominence to the regular single breasted sack, u' English frock coats have been given much serious consideration by the foremost designers, but this garment has never been received with the same favor here that it enjoys abroad. It Is a dressy, dignified garment of grace and distinction and i". will yet assert itself as one of the "best sellers." While the fashion edicts have not laid any special stress upon It this season It can be adopted with the propriety and with the consciousness that It is good form and especially good taste for men of tall stature. The two and , three button models are most recommended and for men of portliness, the one button model is comfortable and effective. The overcoat ' models for this' season show a return to the Chesterfield boxy effects. These are shown principally In smooth finished fabrics such as kerseys, and meltons and the colors black, blue, oxford and bottle green. These coats will be of moderate length, having well formed shoulders, collars and lapels of moderate width and body of easy fitting proportions. The lengths vary from 44 to SS Inches according to the model. Another overcoat that will have great approval is the military overcoat wth Prussian'! collar effect. These will be made of fancy overcoatings with gray and green as the chief colors employed. These are virtually great coats, built for comfort and protection. Some model's are . showing convertible collars. These are so constructed that they can be Instantly changed from an ordinary lapel effect to the military collar, fitting snugly about the neck and giving complete protection. . These military overcoats are made in roomy yet shapely models. ' . There Is also a very voluminous model of thie coat made In both' single and double breasted styles. These latter have no belted back and are of the button-through variety. While they can be used for street wear they are a particularly clever for motoring or driving. There Is some Inclination abroad to return the Paddock overcoat to favor, and the Influence Is asserting itself In a modest degree over here. In ultra fashionable circles some will be worn this season and the man who expects to get two winters', service out of his overcoat will be wise In having one of these, as there Is surely a trend toward this graceful garment that Is destined, to Insinuate Itself with more prominence

The dukes fate rests with Miss Elkins herself. If she should say the word, the duke would be at her side tomorrow, and the marriage Would not long be delayed." .'',- -,..
