NIAMONDs, pure as sparkling

DIAMoNDs, pure as sparkling
dewdrops in the early morn,
flash their enticing message
from the cases Of Bailey, Banks &
Blddle Company, W here many pieces,
original and beautiful in design, are
on display. Diamonds there are of
every size mounted in every style,
but Bar Pins claim most attention.
Some are straight bars, in varying
lengths, set with well-matched dia-
monds, others are in pierced effect,
the shape that spreads in the middle
and tapers off at both ends. A glo-
rious straight filigree Bar Pin,
paved with 20 brilliants, holds II
perfect blue-white diamonds, the
center one weighing l Is carats, while
another, on the brooch-pin order,
has three rows of diamonds, the mid
die one in a square setting, with the
center design formed by three large
and four medium sized diamonds.

VTIHAT man likes to look at
" wilted fower-or woman?
Not one, I'd venture to say.
Then why do they imagine wilted
man is any more pleasing a sight?
Yet dozens of these fastidious gentle
men needlessly wilt in summer heat
because they persist in wearing the
wrong kind of apparel. when at
Jacob Reeds Sons, 1424-26 Chestnut
street, there are tropical-weight
Coat and Trouser Suits made of Palm
Beach Cloth, Summer Worsteds,
Breez-weve, Aerpore, Mohair, Linen.
All are serviceable and comfortable,
though Palm Beach Cloth is the final
and satisfactory solution of warm
weather fabric. But don't expect the
best results unless you get Palm
Beach Cloth and Jacob Reeds Sons
together; it's the splendid fabric plus
Re n designing and workmanship
th8 fnakes for super7elegance and
comfort.

SQUARES. The Yama, Alpha Tea and

the Tatsuta, though absolutely with
out borders, are effective and neat,
relieved by colored warps running
through the heavy braided grass.
