Cut Glass
and China

TO give the Thanksgiving and
Christmas dinner table a tone.
My stock Of cut glass is not
only the most complete, but the
very finest glass I can buy. There
is a difference in diamonds
there is a difference in cut glass.
People who know good glass from
poor will have none but the best.
Cheap glass, although it may be
of same size and the cutting look
like that of a higher priced arti-
Gle, is made from poorer quality
Of glass, which is often times sim
ply pressed glass polished to give
it the appearance Of being cut
from a blank. 1 handle nothing
but American stock, buy direct
from the factory-net from job
bers-hencs I know that my glass
is right.
To those whose first wish is
quality, not quantity and cheap
ness, l invite to inspect my stock
of fine American cut glass.
My line of hand-painted china
will be complete about December
l. Wait for it.
