Christmas Is The Established Time Wheh Ever/
Handkerchief Box Is Replenished
And We Make A Special Study Of Holiday Handkerchiefs
‘1 send you a nosecloth,” said Lady Washington, a hundred years ago, in a charming letter to her niece. The article was rarer then
than now and more costly, though called by a homelier name.
Recently 5,000,000 pocket handkerchiefs have been sent to. the United States in a single year from St. Gall, Switzerland, and half as
many more from Belfast and other great centers of embroiderv.
They’re no longer simple “nose cloths" —they are articles of adornment and a product for the millions.
What would the exclusive first lady of the laud have thought could she have seen thirty thousand of these dainty and delightful em
broidered mouchoirs that have been gathered here for the holiday buyers.
30,000 handkerchiefs! Make a mental calculation. They’ll average 12 inches square, and that 30,000—handkerchiefs enough to reach
from Brook wood to West End. ' ,
And yet they are all arranged and priced and at the command of quick fingers who can show you this and that pattern in the twink
ling of an eye y for time is a great factor these days.
But of greater importance still to you in this 30,000 handkerchiefs—this vastness ot numbers—are the prices.
. Even the least informed in merchandising must grasp the advantage in buying*.
And proof of values is abundant at the counter. y *
