Women who purchase their wearing apparel at The Blum Stere are
noticed for their smart appearance. The announcement below is well
worth your consideration.
npO THE eye of the expert no
diamond will compare with the
Polished Girdle Diamond, exclusive
with the house of Bailey, Banks &
Biddle Ce. But it does net take an
expert alone te recognize the su
perior brilliancy and beauty of this
Diamond when placed beside any
ether. And se, the girl who re
ceives an Engagement Ring which
contains this marvelous jewel will
appreciate its greater value and
feel a glow of pride when she shows
it te her friends. Such an Engage
ment Ring should, of course, be sup
plemented by a Circle of Diamonds,
and these which are designed and ex
ecuted by Bailey's own artists nnd
craftsmen are exquisite beyond words.
fOU will be pleased te learn that

"I MUST have my blankets washed before I put them away and they
will never be se lovely and soft again," the little bride et last autumn
complained te me. "Why don't you send them te Bargs', Cleaners and
Dyers, 1113 Chestnut Street, and have them cleaned?" I suggested. "They
will be just as white and fliiffy as new when you get them back." And
while wc were en the subject, I UM her about the wonderful way that
Bargs' clean rugs, hew they get out every little bit of grit and dirt, as
well as the many advantages of sending quilts, draperies,, curtains, etc.,
te be cleaned by experts such as Barg Brethers.
