The "Miller-Made" Adjustable Collar Overcoat.
WE call it a trick coat, because it will turn many a young chap's sorrow into gladness. Tho collar can bo worn in tho high fola style,
which will balk cold blasts on wintry days, and then again it can bo turned down flat in the regular ulster fashion, which gives an
"air" of jauntiness and prosperity.
It's hard to figure out how a designer was skilful enough to plan an overcoat with a convertible collar, but it's easy to see why he did
it he knew the surest, slickest way to a man's heart was to show him tho unusual the "classy". '
But the collar is just an incident liko all of the crisp, practical featuors in "MILLER-MADE" OVERCOATS. There is a certain grace ;
to the lapels that bespeaks carcftil hand work there's a poise to tho whole garment which will immediately attract tho interest of those
who appreciate good style.
The fabrics from which adjustable collar "Miller-Made" coat are constructed nro finely woven and exclusively; patterned they are
delightful to look at and will wear satisfactorily. Lest reading about these unusual coats has given you tho impression that they are high
priced, we'll say they are low very low indeed.
The adjustable collar coat is easy to wear. The collar is the whole tiling. NO HOOKS AND EYES. Tuck in lapel and button it
and you have changed from one style to another. A regular two-collar any weather coat Yours Js ready.
