It is needless for us to enumerate the hundreds of Christmas specials that prevail throughout our various depart ments, but suffice to sa7 that we have gifts for everybody, and to fit each and every purse. ie As Christinas Gifts As a token of a "Merry Christmas" nothing can be more pleas ing than a garment of fur. Their aristocratic richness and luxuriousness most finely inter pret the sentiments of the season. And unquestionably Fashion's finest garments are Silverf ield Furs. The beauty of every Silverfield Fur is REAL. The brilliancy and luster and depth of color-tone is natural. For the most famous fur regions of the world are the scource of Silverfield Furs. And every pelt is trapped in the depth of Winter, when the fur is thickest and finest and sleekest and glossiest and of silkiest softness. For more than twenty years the name of The Silverfield Fur Company has been unquestioned as a guarantee of genuineness. And today Silverfield Furs are recognized as STANDARD for Fur quality. i The Fur Question Whom Will You Trust When You Buy Furs J. wWWJ Am . mm lit This is the supreme question in fur-buying. Furs, like diamonds, need an expert to value them, and the wise buyer will not trust his own superficial judgment, nor that of a merchant who sells what he buys, without knowledge of skins or workmanship. House of Silverfield Knows Furs THEY HAVE KNOWN THEM FOR MANY YEARS, and they now handle more furs than any house on the Pacific Coast. Their trappers bring their skins from every fur-bearing country in the United States and Canada, as well as from Europe. They have so long practiced the difficult craft of fur-matching and fur-sewing that their experts excel in that which contributes in large propor tion to the value of a fur garment. THE WORK IS DONE IN THEIR OWN FACTORY, UNDER THEIR OWN SUPERVIS ION, and the fit and finish of a Silverfield fur garment is pro verbial. With these facilities in one harmonious organization FROM SILVERFIELD TRAPPER TO SILVERFIELD PATRON every buyer may be sure of the greatest fur values, latest fur styles and most moderate prices. Not only do these facilities apply to their collection of high-priced furs, such as NATURAL RUSSIAN SABLE, HUDSON BAY SABLE, GENUINE ROYAL ERMINE, ALASKA MINK, SILVER FOX, BROADTAIL, ETC. Entire satisfaction is also guaranteed in lower-priced goods, such as ' PERSIAN LAMB, RUSSIAN PONY, CARACUL, LYNX, FOX, ASTRAKHAN AND OTHER DEPENDABLE FURS Can you afford to trust any other than the most ex pert in selection and purchase of Fur Garments?
