YOU have noticed, of course, the
- scarcity of mems gloves, so the
news that you can find at the store of
Jacob Reeds Sons, 1424-26 Chestnut
street, an excellent assortment of
gloves of good quality will be well
coined, | know. There is pique-sewn
glove of tobacco brown capeskin with
embroidered back that is remarkably
good-looking. A buckskin in spring
weight is another good choice, for it
is a glove that looks we'll and wears
well. Some men like the gray mocha
gloves for spring, and these at Reeds
are of very good quality. Chamois
! gloves with spear-back are very
smart and practical, for they wash
well. Gray gloves, suitable for all
afternoon functions, will also be
found at Reeds, among them heavy
gray silk gloves.
THERE is really no necessity for
l. having your chauffeur's outfit
tailored to measure when he can
obtain such a remarkably well-made
and perfect fitting suit and overcoat
as those at the store of Macdonald

They are of excellent quality blue
and gray unfinished worsteds and
cheviots, and there is a certain air of
| individuality about them which will

that one can send ones chauffeur to
! Macdonald & Campbell's for COM
plete outfitting, from cap to puttees,
with the assurance that every detail
of his uniform will be correct. This
store has been most successful in its
department devoted to the outfitting
| of chauffeurs, as many well-satisfied
patrons have attested.
