The fact is that what this country
and the west in particular needs is a
great big band wagon, the Glacials de

In these wares there is beauty, value and utility combined In them appropr1- ate and desirable articles can be found to fit equally well the filled wallet or slender purse; and again there are many pieces of both that are needed for the new house quite as much as furniture, china and other things.
