REDUCED SUMMER RATES FOR FUR REPAIRS The Pattison Ede policy, oi having a special reduced summer price list for renovations and repair work is proving very popular. It is wise to have the work done now, as not only can a saving be made, and furs cr . be dispensed with for a week or two without inconvenience, but at this time of the ear the moths are very busy and it pays to have coats cleaned by the new Pattison Ede scientific method to make sure tha* all moth eggs are removed and any small repairs done. Pattison Ede already have the new season's jtyles in readiness for next season. Incidentally these definitely favour the swagger and box styles, so much lighter and more comfortable to wear. , . _ At the present time Pattison Ede have a fairly good assortment of matching skins and accessories, and further there is the possibility of skin prices rising substantially. The most important point of all is that Pattison Ede sales stall and cutters are under strict : .structions not to undertake work of any description unless satisfactory results can be assured, and what is equally important from the customer's point of view, the results will justify the amount involved. Why not take your Fur Coat. Cape, or Necklet in to Pattison Ede at 72 Lichfield street, and discuss without obligation the matter of repair, renovation, or restyling. —1
