Real Luxury In Clothing.
i! asked what luxury in cluthoa
meant. moat puma would anawer that
it la tho habitual wearing of cilia,
aalina. laces. broadcloths. diamond! and
some and in their reason fora literally
worth their weight in gold. Tho moat
aspenalre apparel made in the latest
fashion nnd worn habitually, that to the
common idea of luxury in clothing.
Well. the common idea it all wrong.
No clothea are actually more ancdmo
lortablo tbnn expensive and taahlonablo
ones. Thought, patenlleatherpo tad
choc, the excruciatingly high, all dol-
lar, the about iron like tall hat—what
lugonioaa fiend could deviae anything
more uncomfortable? Who can tahoa
run, dig in the ground, ride a bicycle,
trump through the woods and thorough-
ly enjoy outdoor life in any ahapeor
form whoa be or tho it. an the phrase
goes. "drraaed up?"
No. misguided mortal! Roai luxury
in dreaa cuneiala in tho wearing of
biotic. atrong clothen that weather and
rich brown earth cannot harm. “Ar
may an an old ahcu" baa pasted into a
proverb. The sailor, the doberman. the
little girl and boy at play in their old
toga. enjoy real luxury in clothing.
When the taco is truly civilized, mil-
lionaire men and women will also dare
to wear comfortable ciotben.
