Upon these. sought as much for
their beauty as their use, Gorham
artisans bestow their finest skill.
To repay appreciation with our
best efforts is very Humankind
the Gorham workshop is eminent
" human.
In the fashioning of these arti-
cles the Gorham double standard
Of Use and Beauty is admirably,
exemplifed. 1t is an established
Gorllam principle that every OBJ
iect shall be fitted, by design, pro
portion and ornamentation, for
the purpose it is to serve.
This is why the Best Sellers"
have won their name. They arc
both practical and beautiful. And
they possess that indehnable
touch of superiority and quality
that whisper "Gorham.
High on the list of the best sell
| ers is the Gorham bowl. A round
dozen that rum the gamut OF price
from $1,000 to S7l.0O. OF course
one of them is the popular favor
ite-I won't say which. You are
the best Judge of what will suit
you.
Right after the bowls in con-
slant request come the bread trays
each embodying the Gorham
idea OF Utility and Beauty. These
climb in price from $3.50 in four
steps to $500.
Then. the bon dishes,
beautiful samples OF Gorham
workmanship, in variety OF sizes
and styles from $3.50 to $500
each for serving dishes, and from
$500 to S24.00 the dozen for in
dividual sizes.
The list continues with the sill
yer basket at $500, beautiful
butter dish at $3.50, and FIVE dif-
ferent types of cheese dishes,
each with a server, beginning at
$3.50 and going up to $3.50.
A half dozen candlestick pat
ems are among the favorites
These begin in price as low as
SS75. The highest priced are
$500 per pair.
Ten salts and an equal number
OF peppers compete sharply for
popular favor. The salts are
priced from $500 to Sll.50 per
pair; the peppers from Sl.25 to
$1,000 per pair.
Seven varying styles and sizes
OF sandwich plates are on the list.
They represent as many prices,
from Sl4.00 up to S36.00
Right along with these are
three sauce boats at Sl4.OO,
S21.OO and $500; sugar baskets
from 5000 to $500; vegetable
dishes from $500 to 5000:
childs bowls from S5.25 to $500:
child's cups, seven of them at as
many prices, from $3.50 to $3.50
each; child's plates from $500 to
$1,000; compotiers from 1915 10
$500
Ramekins, per dozen, S29OO
without covers. 5000 with COW
ers ; bouillon cups. $1,000 per doz-
en-; ice cream plates from $500
TO $4,000 per dozen; lemon
dishes from $500 to $1,000; meat
dishes from $1,000 to Sll5.OO;
mufiniers. $500; mustard, SOS.
And perhaps you'll think these
last ones should be first: The tea
and coffee sets and tete-a-tete
sets. There are tea sets at nine
different prices from 5000 to
$4,000, and coffee sets at four
separate prices from $500 TO
$4,000. Four different, prices
represent the tete-a-tete sets, run
ming from 5000 to $1,000.
Oh, yes, there are coffee cups
and saucers, the former 5000 per
dozen. the latter $l700 per dozen.

Breittmayer afterwards visited his
wounded opponent at his home with the
permission of the surgeons and a re-
Cancellation was effected.

had first crossed swords with Breitt-
mayer. The second duel will take place
