It chanced that he had been invitl to tea for the following Sunday at th" home of one of the men to whom h i . related hi? woes, so the host and his godless friend arranged a sartorial rp- -ception for him in order that he might not feel ill at ease, no matter what ) he elected to wear. One chose a costume cos-tume consisting of a dress coat, a brilliant bril-liant checkered sporting waistcoat. ' knickerbockers, stockings with knees ; bare, in the Scotch fashion, dancinsr ' pumps, and a four-in-hand cravar. The other chose a frock coat, white evening waistcoat, riding breeches, and boots, the whole surmounted by a flow ing Quartier Latin bow. .
