Too Expensive
For many people to buy them, but
just exactly what some people
will want. We refer to some
colored linen handkerchiefs, just
sent us from Paris. It’s pretty
safe to say that you couldn’t find
them in ten stores in the whole
country.
If you are not in New Haven for
the game, or some other good
time, you might like samples of
these or any other good thing
we have.
