BEAU NASH TO-DAY.

:

The office of Master of Ceremonies is to be revived at Bath. It is doubtful, however, whether the successor of the famous. Beau Nash will present to the citizens of Bath such an elegant appear- ance as did his meticulously dressed pre- decessor two centuries ago.

Fashions in men's clothes to-day do not permit the picturesque frills and aravats that were worn by the besut of old. Modern conditions necessitate more prac- tical medes, but that does not prevent the man of ipes from looking elegsat and eveh pleasing.

The Prince of Wales is one of the best dressed men in England to-day. His secret lies in the fact that he seldor wears an article of clothing that distracts. attention from his general apprentic In this respect he carries out the

of the famous Beau Brummell, who once declared that the man who is so elaborate-

Attired that people turn round to ad- mire him is not well dressed, but merely conspicuous and vulgar. At the opening of the new Auctioneers' institute recently the Prince of Wales wore a double-breast- ed blue overcoat and a top hat. He had striped trousers, black patent leather shoes, and grey silk socks.

Personality has probably a good deal. to do with the Prince's appearance 23 with that of other well-dressed men. It is not so much the cut of a man's clothes that matters as the way they are worn. Attention to details like cuffs and collars and trouser dresses plays an important part in producing the correct effect.

Mr. Austen Chamberlain is undoubted. by our smartest Cabinet Minister. In Lontian he is usually to be seen in his familiar morning coat, which matches well his upright bearing. Probably the Earl of Cavan is the best dressed metaber of a traditionally weil-groomed calling. In mufti as in military attire, he looks every inch a soldier of the King.

The Archdeacon of London, anlike the! Dean of St. Paul's. is fastidious in his wwar. It is difficult for the clergy to dress distinctively, but the venerable archdeacon's high position allows scope for the skill of his tailore.

A walk in the Temple during the lunch hour reveals the fact that the Law standa weil where clothes and their wekrem are concerned. Mr. Justice McCardie is a debonair judge, and always looks dis tinguished in mufti, while the Earl of Halsbury, son of the famous Lord Chan cellor, is probably the best turnal-out member of the Bar..

Most of England's successful men dress well nowadays. To be shabby is either a form of affection or the privilege of an erratic genius. Roy BERESFOne in Daily Express,

After all-

the charm that outshines all others, when the lips part in a smile, is the gleam of daintily polished teeth, a charm which Calvert's Tooth Powder can help so much to secure. Again, besides polishing so brightly those teeth that show, this delightful dentifrice gives the thorough antiseptic cleansing to the crevices, which dental hygiene requires. Being free from grit it cannot scratch or injure the enamel of the teeth.
