Glory of Art
Speaks unmeasured volumns in our store where
inestimable stones sparkle a cheery welcome to each
and every customer, while myriads of unvalued
jewels add to the galaxy of splendor to be found
here.
Woman’s microscopic eye for beauty will find
every link in the great chain of loveliness in our
store, and the men will have no trouble selecting
just what their mothers, wives, daughters or sweet-
hearts will appreciate most.
Fathers and mothers can find here just the gift
they wish to make to their valiant sons who are
“in the trenches” now, or who are soon to leave for
France to perhaps give their all in defense of Amer-
ica.
Remembrance and Reflection are so closely allied
that now of all time is the best time to give Holi-
day presents that are enduring to the end that the
remembrance of home and the dear ones will help
the recipients to be brave and true and loyal to the
influences they had to go away from.
And the young man who is soon to answer his
country’s call will find in our store all the priceless
gems in Diamonds, Rubles, Pearls, Gold, Silver and
Ivory that his mother, sister or sweetheart could
desire to keep the light of recollection burning for-
ever in their hearts.
