How few tailors pay proper atten-

tion to vests. As long :is the buttons are on straight, it`s :ill right. Even if it is too big, they 5i\'e.the strap a. pullftiglitczi it-:xml defend them- selves by saying “ the vest \\'ou't

But it does. Ill fitting, “pulled

That is the strong point of “FIT-REFORM" Clothes--perfection in

every detail-ilie most scrupulous attention to every part of every garment. “ FIT-REFORM " Vests are made just ns carefully-tit just as snugly-as “Fl'l`~REFORM” Coats. And when the whole suit is on, it is a suit of perfection-every stitch, every line, every garment abso- lutely fanltless. _

THE BOUNDARY AWARD.

There is disappointment in Canada over

the award of the Alaskan Boundary Com- imission, but the disappointment is mingled with satisfaction that a long- , T standing, troublesome and possibly dan- gerous dispute has been got out oi the wry. We now realise that we had not eo” good a case at law or in equity as we thought we had; that in fact the treaty signed by Stratford Canning in 1825 in its set terms or implications shut ue out trorxi

' what we fondly thought was ours.

A s'rlp ot coast territory some 500 miles

in length along the northern halt. ot the Pacific front of British Columbia 'and a

portionf of Yukon`,Territorywas lnidispuie. y If. is banked with islands set closely together for over 330 miles, these islands extending in s pretty compact body ot

titty or morclmilca in width outside the

shore 0* the mainland. One, Canadian

newspaper contention, not seriously set up before the Commission, was that the coast line was the -Psoiilo shore. ot these "s\ands. -This wsecienrly untonable. Thi
