D., wore a primitive sort of trousers, which were rather tight and came down only to the calves of the legs. The Roman paenula, worn from the Second to the Fifth centuries, was a cape-likgarment, probably a development of the toga, which dropped down over the head and fell in folds in front and behind. The tunic replaced the toga for the reason no doubt that it was simpler and allowed greater freedom of movement. This Is an example of the way in which men's clothes have varied from time to time to conform to their chief interests. When action and fighting were their principal activity, their garments were simg and short, but when security ple, and Idleness predominated, their clothes, in the earlier ages, were long, iull and cumbersome, and later very tight, necessitating short mincing steps and dainty movements. The clothing of men In central and western Europe shows the Roman Influence with variaof their times and their tions, characteristic .race. In the costume of the Frankish citizen (No. 4), worn A. D. 400 to COO, may be seen the familiar tunic, but the sleeves are gathered ut the wrists, there is an embroidered girdle and embroidery at the bottom of the tunic and short trousers are worn under the stockings. A cloak (No. 5) fastened at the right shoulder with a clasp completes the costume. From the Eleventh to the Thirteenth century clothing such as shown I TsarJlLJ I V v?G H I J 3VV; jCvX. man make caustic remarks women being slaves to fashion and unhappy unless they are clad in the dernier cri of fashion. For there was a time when man himself went tn for gaudy display of wearing apparel. In fact, a review of men's styles through the ages, such as was given at the recent style show for both men and women, staged ln Chicago by the National Association of Retail Clothiers and Furnishers and the Fashion Art League of America, showed that It has been only within comparatively recent times that be has been content to wear such sober garments as "the conventional black" and leave it to his mate to be the bird of fine feathers in the household. A "pictorial review'' of men's styles, such as was presented by J. Frederick Schafer of Chicago before a convention of the International Assocla- - I about Li ' the slashes. The Swedish gentleman of that period (No. 12) wore a costume In which the clothes designers of his time used a great deal of Imagination, as witness the puffy red and white striped sleeves on the yellow surcoat, the red trousers, the white vest and gauntlets and olive sjsli, a brown hat with a plume and swug. gerlng soft leather boots, and a starched Elizabethan ruffed collar. Americans who may be Inclined to laugh at the foregoing costumes may well take a look at Both the Kins and his people were black as shoes Because that the climate was torrid; And all that they wore was a ring through the ncM, And a patch of green paint on the forehead. Rut paint and crude bits of jewelry, put on to frighten their enemies, to impress their neighbors or to woo their sweethearts, are not properly clothes, so the first real article of clothing that marks the beginning of men's styles was the simWhen - warmth and modesty ple breech-cloubegan to he consideration In how men should flrefs, lie met the situation by using animal skins, thrown across one shoulder and fastened with a thorn under the other arm. thus leaving the fight- - lug arm free to wield a weapon. And It Is more than likely that the favorite skin which he wore was the brilliantly striped tiger pelt or the attractive spotted skin of the leopard and that his woman had to be content with the less conspicuous peltries. The next step forward was when oismi discovered that fibers stripped from trees and felted together In Rome crude way made an adequate substitute for skins, even though It must have been somewhat "scratchy." Rut somewhere back In the dim vistas of time he learned the art of weaving and the sister art of dyeing so that he began to make handsome, durable and fine fabrics from cotton, (lax, wool and silk and to color them. The Indians gave to mankind the famous Tyrtnn purple, which became the badge of royalty and the undent Egyptians added their bit to dress decoration. About liMKI IS.

The tunic was red, held in by a black girdle, the bat was black, the capuehon green and the trousers were gray and continued to the feet with leather sewed on the soles.

It consisted of a doublet with long oversleeves hanging from the shoulders, padded breeches fastened with "points" of colored velvet or cloth, collar and cuffs of starched linen, slik stockings fastened with garters tied in a bow, felt hat with embroidered band and plume, low shoes tied with laces and gauntlets of soft leather.

If they can claim among their ancestors a signer of the Declaration of Independence it Is probable that he wore such an outfit as Is shown In No. 15, when he stepped forward to sign that Immortal document. The collarless coat was plain, but the ornamentation was provided by a waistcoat of contrasting color, a white neckcloth with a starched frill tucked into the vest, velvet cuffs on the coat slee.es and shirt sleeves made of soft cambric, having frilled extensions which fell down over the hands. Men's clothing In the early days of the Re- - IP was a combination of survivals from the foppishness of colonial times and of the simple more or less standardized suits of today. The costume (No. 16) prevalent during fhe first half of the Nineteenth century Is colonial In Its knee breeches, stock fie and cocked hat but the coat Is a promise of the type of such future garments that were to be adopted. Over In France at about the time of the French Revolution the type of coat known as the swallow tall or pen point (No. 17) became popular ond It wa also worn In England and the United State with a few modifications. The notch In the lapel of this coat marks the origin of the notch In the collar as we know It today and In other respects It was n logical forebear to the costume shown in No. IS.

The upper garment, a descendant of the tunic now known as the had become so short that finally It was just about long enough to cover the body. The lower garments were tights, made of an elastic material, similar to the modern jersey. If the costume of the Frenchman of this period is comparatively simple, his German brother (No. 7) more than made up for It with his display. Although the coat of this German burgher of the Twelfth century Is long. It Is divided front ond back up the body so as to drape on each side when he was riding. With a wealth of handsome materials to choose from, he adorned himself with this costume with Its different patterns of goods used on the right and left sides und the ornamented sleeves and cufjfs. The costume of the French workman of the Fourteenth century (No. S) shows not only a development of the combination hood and cape which the French called "capuehon" and the German "kapuze," but It also shows the Increasing tendency to tightness of fhe trousers.
