The Charm of Good Chinaware WHAT a delight to eye and mind ” that “just right” touch of colour in your home. The soft blue of willow pattern against a dark background, the rich depths of colour in a Doulton bowl; and the enhanced pleasure of a dainty dinner served from English china, of perfect glaze and charming design, and in the centre pansies in a floating bowl of dull rose. You know, too, that your kitchen is just as well stocked, and all because you were wise enough to pay a visit to Allden’s, 4 Karangahape Rd., (near Grafton Bridge), Auckland. Feathers and Fans Mrs. Crombic would like all women who love pretty accessories (and what woman does not?) to know that she has a splendid assortment of new marabout cape stoles, in every fashionable shade, grey, nigger, lisle, and black — also of ostrich tendrils.
