kOR the daintiest of dainty lunch
cons You should visit Yahn G.
McDonnelPs tearoom. at 1903 Chest
nut street. The sandwiches are so de-
llclous. and fresh and the coffee has
such a fine flavor that their fame is
spreading rapidly throughout the
Quaker City. Another thing that sim
ply cannot be excelled is their fresh
strawberry ice cream. Somehow one
feels that there is no spring tonic
quite as effective as real strawberry
Ice cream, and bit of this in the
middle of the afternoon is guaran-
teed to kill the most hopeless case of
spring fever that ever was. French
pastry is thing for which Philadel-
phlans are rapidly developing an
appreciation. Yahn G. McDonnell's
is particularly delicious and makes
a delightful little dessert after
luncheon.
DAINTY Of design and delicate of
- coloring are the Easter cards at
the store of Frank j. Curry, S12
Chestnut street. | noticed in passing
the other day that they are rapidly
disappearing. There is still a great
variety of cards from which to
choose, however-a greater variety,
in fact, than | have seen anywhere
else in town-so you will make no
mistake in sending Curry's cards to
your friends. Let me remind YOU of
the department of developing and
printing at Curry's store. Their work
is handled by experts. The advantage
OF having your snapshots finished at
a reliable place such as this lies in
the confidence one can feel before
hand that the work will be we'll done.
Good developing brings out unex-
pected beauties, even in a snapshot.
A FTER a most thorough study, of
4 the electric car am firmly con-
vinced that it is the most practical
and efficient town car. While it is
true that on account of its ease of
operation and it's safety it is the
ideal car for woman or for any one
who fees the least timidity about
driving car in the congested dis
tricts of the city, yet I know an ex-
pert driver who has taken of late to
using his wife's electric car. When
asked why, he said at is handler.
and ! never seem to have anv trouble
with it," If you have not already seen
the Rauch d Lang and Milburn cleo
trio cars, you should visit the show
rooms of George Hugh Smith, 1885
Chestnut street, where they will
gladly arrange for a demonstration
at your convenience.
A WEEKEND bag comes in mighty
= handy right now, when so many
of US are planning trims to the shore.
| saw a very good-looking bag of
black cowhide at the store of Bailey,
Banks G. Biddle Co. 1t was fitted with
toilet articles of sterling silver. An
other had fittings of ivory and a
practical bag that a man would like
was filled with ebony toilet articles.
A well-made, substantial travelling
bag is as necessary to the we'll
dressed man or woman as clothes of
good style, and an investment in a
bag that will give good service Is
worth while. You will find weekend
bags, suit cases and overnight bags
of good, sturdy feathers at Bailey's.
They come either with or without fit
tings, as you prefer.
HAVE you ever stopped to think
IL just what are the elements that
make for the success of your toilette 4?
If you have, I'm quite sure that foot
wear is very near the head of the
list. Trim footwear that harmonizes
with ones gown goes far toward
making the successful costume. For
afternoon wear one should have, for
instance, a pair Of patent leather
pumps or a pair of the new one
| eyelet ties that are so much in favor
this season, while, for morning or
! sports wear smart oxford with
military heels Is just the thing. The
fit of shoe is quite as important as
its looks, and so ] would suggest that
you visit the second-hoor shop of Del
Mar & Co., at 1911 Chestnut street,
where the salespeople are most in
terested in finding for you the shoe
that exactly suits your foot.
