Or- Rnnlmtlons of French veterans of the great wnr arc making extraordinary preparations to receive and entertain ' ijfi-ijT-ir AnVKBTISKMKNT ADVr.KTIHfcMENT Whether you need some article for a picnic or some permanent household furnishing:, you cannot do better than visit the store of J. Franklin Miller. - -7 M COME guests dropped in during the evening nnd there was nothing in the house for refreshments. Unfor tunately it was too late to get some ico cream except in a paper box. However, my difficulties were ob viated, as I had an Aladdin Thermal ware Jar to put it in until such time as I should be ready to serve. Do you happen to possess one of these ;ars? They nre invaluable for keep ing things cold or hot, as the case may be. You will find them for sale at the store of J. Franklin Miller, 1612 Chestnut Street. Tho two quart size is $13.75 and the one-gallon $15.00. Besides, Miller's have many kinds of Thermos bottles and receptacles which you will find most useful. And as for household furnish ings, there is nothing which jou may need In that line which you will not find in this store. OHESTS of flat silver, silver serv--ices or tea sets are things to which you will wish to givo the greatest consideration and care in purchasing. When you return from your summer's outing there are nl ways a hundred and one engage ments and household affairs to take up one's time. It would be well, therefore, for you to Bend now to the store of Bailey, Banks & Biddlc Company for their Gift Book, which will facilitate greatly the making of your selection. It is full of illustra tions so carefully reproduced that you may examine the various designs. There are also many suggestions for gifts. Often there is some gift or prize which is impossible to procure at n summer resort, a bridge prize, per- but ror wmen you may senu to and bo fissured or the finest hODS. Bailey's quality. THIS is Cantaloupe Season! And is there anything so refreshing as a sweet, luscious cantaloupe? Those which I have had from the store of Henry R. Hallowell & Son, Broad Street below Chestnut, have been simply delicious. The famous Anne Arundel Cantalqupes from Maryland are now in, and they are even better than usual; they are, in fact, the most delicious cantaloupes from this district, and will be deliv ered anywhere in Philadelphia for $2 a basket. Or, like all of Hallowell's fruit, they can be sent to any place within 1000 miles, as they guarantee perfect delivery that far. If, how ever you prefer those huge French Melons, you will find them to have wonderfully thick yellow moat. And tho Honcydew Melons aro perfectly luscious. TVf EN need not complain about the high cost of wearing apparel; that jb, if they know the proper places to get it. At the shop of Reid & Fort, 1204 Chestnut Street, as well ns their two stores at 1119-21 Mnr ket Street and 11 South Fifteenth Street, you will find that the prices are extremely low. They are sell ing merchandise at a discount of Ki to Mi of their original prices, which, you will realize, is a great reduction. Besides, nil of their merchandise is of a high standard of quality. The reduction on straw hats is really remarkable, and I am sure you will bo pleased with the wide assortment of shirts, both in madras and silk. You are also afforded nn opportunity of buvintr extremely high-grado ties at pre-war prices. , ...hj1 !NEW YORK III B AadlUandll 2 Every Oilier Sunday ft if NEXT EXCURSION AUO. 21 !
