The power of the British Navy is the basis of, its merchants’ success. A walk through our elegant and spacious show rooms will fill moat ladies ... yith interest and enthusiastic delight. We invite yon to pay this tribute to the resources of our Empire, and in doing so make acquaintance with Fashion’s Favorites for the Summer of 1916. Further Arrivals ex Rimutaka.
