SINGLE-BREASTED COATS.
Englishmen have the art of wear- ing clothes with a casual assurance which is the envy of the world: they do not give undue considera- tion to the question of their appear- ance, yet have that inborn knack of selecting the right garment for the right moment and choosing colours that are suited to the ensemble, writes Fonthill Beckford in the "Daily Mail."
This characteristic has earned and retained for them the reputa- tion of leading the men's wear world. Moreover, they consider simplicity and unobtrusive elegance should be the keynote of their at 46 tire: hence it is through their quiet good taste they can always be pick- ed out in a cosmopolitan crowd.

In accordance with this attitude, there are never any extreme Inno- vations in men's clothes, the utmost being a modification of the silhou ette, produced by such details as the lengthening of the jacket, the creation of a new waistcoat, the al- teration of the lapel, or the re arrangement of the buttons,
Powder Blues and Greys. Then what will be worn during the coming months? Undoubtedly the 'single-breasted lounge jacket will be more in evidence than the 18 double-breasted, which was first favourite last season, but it will be longer and easier across the shoul ders, with a higher waistline, and fitting closely around the hips. 11 The double-breasted lapels will be more pointed and have a straight 49 edge.

These and the lighter tones, biscuit, cinnamon, oatmeal, and beige, are ideal; they always look well and never go out of fashion. Furthermore, they are 8 suitable for either golf or shooting
