Wedding
Gifts
£
In your selection of a wedding
gift you want something a “little
out of the ordinary run of gifts. ”
You want something which will
reflect credit on yourself, and
which will make a good showing
on the “display table.” You
want something adapted specially,
if possible, to the party it is se
lected for, and at the same time
reasonably priced. You are
forced to remember, too, in mak
ing your selection, that “there
are others” in the near future.
We want you to come and see
what we have to offer in this line.
Our facilities for buying are su
perior to those enjoyed by anyone

Jardiniere, Dinner-Ware, Fish
and Game Sets, Bed-Room Sets,
Carving Sots, and a great many
other things we haven't space to
enumerate. We are showing a
few of these in our windows now,
but you will have to take time to
go through the line if you want
the best.
