It Was a Great
Privilege Fifty Years
Age te Meet at
Breakfast
for a man as young as myself,
and sit at the table in Londen
with
Jeseph Jehn Gurncy
the notable Quaker philanthropist
His face, smile and words
have always steed out plainly
as the finest personification of
that splendid old British
Quakerism of the past.
This is the place te pass en a
part of a letter Mr. Gurney
wrote te his son at school, when
he said:
"Be a whole man at. everything,
at Latin, geometry, athletics;
be a whole man at play and at
work. Put your whole manhood
into what you de. Whatever is
worth doing, is worth doing
well."

Millinery Perfection
It is as easy te cheese a lovely hat in the Gray Salens
as it is te gather flowers in a June garden.
On every pedestal blooms a charming Hinglc effect
in millinery; and in every glass case blossoms a perfect
posy of hats.
"Shall I cheese that ravishing silver lace with squir
rel fur? Or that adorable creation veiled in filmy
brown lace? That saucy .turban with a dash of chin
chilla? Or that shadowy, sweeping, midnight-hucd affair
that would transform even an ordinary face into a visage
of wistful beauty and mystery?"
One may imagine questipns like these. Te reject
among se many temptations docs indeed have its dif
ficulties. But one has the ultimate satisfaction of having
chosen from the best; and the delicious assurance that
the final choice is what; few things in this world arc
wholly perfect!

Skunk Fur Offers a Wide
Choice of Neckpieces
. Many women buy a coat without fur, expecting te
supplement it with a fur piece which may be worn sepa
rately, when desired.
An ideal fur choice for this purpose is a cellar', scarf,
cape or stele of handsome skunk fur.
Skunk is a practical, enduring fur. It is fashionable.
It is rich and becoming in appearance.
And its cost is net such as te put it beyond the reaeh
of these who must observe a limit in dress expenditures.
A very wide and beautiful assortment of 3kunk pieces
is here, priced from $30 te $300. There are small,
straight scarfs, shaped scarfs, cellars, stoics, capes and
cape-wrap effects that would richly complete any toilette.
The fur is of unusual thickness and brilliance, and the
pieces are beautifully made up.

Beaver Is Used Lavishly
en These New Belivia
Coats
And, as most women knew, it is the scarcest and
most fashionable of furs at the p?esent time. In
fact, we have no hope of being able te duplicate
any one of these beautiful new beaver-trimmed
coats.
The coats would be lovely in tlfemselves alone,
but with their huge beaver cellars, cuffs, often
pockets as well or panels of beaver, thpy are
the most luxurious garments a woman could ask
for.
One of the handsomest of these coats even has
the cape cellar extended into a wide facing all the
way down te the hem. The prices were fixed at a.
time jvhen beaver was net nearly as precious as it
is today, $325 te $375.
