It is a shop in which you may browse about and look and be served in a manner which does not make you feel obligated—but rather glad that you came and sure that you will come again. It is a shop in which you do not pay more for either the || smart address or the individuality il of the gifts—their prices are quite moderate. They invite you to come in and look about—and let them help you with your Christmas list. Pure-Thread Silk Spuntex No. 225-235 i Chiffon and Service HOSIERY " Every pair guaranteed.
