When Quality

IF Quality Town cannot have
L it's Wiesbaden, it's Cannes
and it's Aix-la-C hapelle, it does

White Sulphur.
Quality Town simply must
have a change, whether it be
across the sea or across a State

And, of course, when Quality
Town travels it does not travel

The complete wardrobe for

children, the servants-is
carefully luggaged and trunked.
Leather Goods have been, and
always will be, peculiar fancy
of Quality Town.
But Leather Goods stores
have not always made the
most of opportunities to get
Quality Towns patronage.
Quality Towns newspaper
stands ready to get your stores

And if you feel that Leather
Goods and Luggage advertising
could stand some "smartening
