Harry When you buy furs, it. is well to invest in them, rather than to spec ulate. There's a marked difference between the two. Whenever a fur piece is greatly underpriced, there is a reason for it, and do not permit the dealer fo tell you that it's because the weather is warm or because you're a favored customer, or any such tomfoolery. Find out why! Take fox skins, for example. A legitimate fur dealer may show you a fine large muff and throw, made from fine peltries of unusual size, and quote you a very fair price on it. Before you purchase, you remem ber that So-and-So, around the cor ner are having a heavily advertised Sale. You decide, as is your priv ilege, to go and see what they are offering. Fine! But they are all ready for you and show you a set at a lower price j and apparently identically the same j as you were looking at in the legiti- | mate store, but which is really ; worth only half as much. "Sour grapes?" Not so—here is I the little darkie In the woodpile. j An unscrupulous furrier can take | a very small fox skin, or most any | other kind of peltrie, and expand it to about twice its size, but its in- : trinsic value does not expand ac- | cordlngly. The skin is laid face downward | and slit many, many times down the | wider part by cuts about half an inch apart and running parallel to | each other. Common sheep skin j strins are then cut and inserted in these slits and sewed along each j edge, making the back look like a | Mrd'e-eye view of a freight yard, al- i though the deception cannot be de tected on the fur side owing to the great density of the fur. When such a piece is made into ! a muff or throw, the padding and j the lining prevent one from feeling | the many seams Inside the skin, but j If you will press the piece hard be- 1 tween the two hands and rub slow- I ly, you will have the sensation of i passing your Angers over a silken ! covered wnsh board. So. after all. you And that the : genuine article In the honest man's , store represented true value, while •be "special reduction" was no re- ' Auction at all —but decidedly an In- ! Aaiion. Use rare to shun the nntmal that ' "grows" to twice its size after it is I killed, and— Beware of the Wolf in Sheep's i Clothing.—Advertisement. (Copyright, 1919 J.R.
