A TAILOR TALK.
"The average man has five pockets
in his coat two outside, two inside,
and aV ticket pocket," says a tailor.
"There are, however, certain profes
sions which render special pockets
desirable. V
"Most people know what a 'poach
er's pocket' is, but how many have
heard of a music pocket? Many pro
fessional singer have their overcoats
fitted with such a receptacle. Usu
ally they are placed in the back of the
coat, just above the waist line, and
will hold half a dozen pieces of music
without crushing.
"Some detectives, too have their
business suits fitted with a handcuff
pocket or sleeve. The special advan
tage of this is that the manacles can
be withdrawn unseen. When an
obstreperous prisoner sees the offi
cer's hand seeking a pocket, he knows
what is coming, and act accordingly.
But with the special pocket the
'bracelets' are out and snapped on his
wrists before he can resist
