SILKS. SILKS. SILKS.

At this season OF the year some
men are in quandary to know what
to give to their wives for a Christ

silk or grenadine dress, and when
they have followed our advice, we
know that the good wife has always
felt that hubby knows what he was
about. Let us suggest one OF our
uncrushable grenadines, or hand
some plain or brocaded silk.
