The Charm of Pretty Silver
"Doubles the pleasures of Entertaining'
Sterling Silver carries with it a certain substantial dignity
that imparts distinction and refinement to the home. Family
Silver is an indication of taste and culture and should be in
keeping with the other appointments of the dwelling.
The table is the measure of the home; here are honored
the dearest friend and most respected guest; its appoint
ments should be worthy of its place.
Colonial Silver
The plain lines characteristic of the Colonial style of silver are
now in high favor. Good silver may also be had in plated ware
which partakes of the same general nature as the sterling.
We will feel honored to have you call and let us
show you these newer designs, which undoubtedly
will suggest something you will be proud to possess.
The Very Best Patterns in Hollow and Flatware
may be Purchased Here of Reasonable Prices.
