HAPPY ADVERTISING. - (2)

LTD.

We have considerable pleasure in announcing the opening of our new premises in St. George's Building, Chater Road, Hong Kong, on Monday the 6th inst. These new premises provide us with ample facilities for the displaying of those lines in gentlemen's outfitting which will inevitably appeal to the most discriminating'masculine taste.

We, ourselves feel that we are offering an entirely different service,--different because our buying is so absolutely right, and because our prices are Homeside prices.

Our department for neckwear is worth mention, for this department holds a stock of seven thousand ties from the best of British makers of gentlemen's fine neckwear. These ties are priced at $1.75, $2.75 and $3.75, including Macclesfield handwoven squares. Together with these we would mention Our "Zambrene" weatherproofs priced from $12, and our stocks of grey flannel trousers, these latter are cut by London's most highly paid cutters,-experienced men who insist upon putting the best of their skilled craft into these productions, and we retall these from $11.50.

Our footwear department is especially interesting for its display of Scotch grain English made golf shoes at $15.50,-a golf shoe which is unconditionally guaranteed.

"Wolsey" 'knitwear is prominent in our stocks of knitwear goods, and here we are able to show you entirely new departures in golfing jackets, pullovers and slipovers: Wolsey hose too is strongly featured.-- altogether a careful selection direct from "Wolseys", Leicester factory, and bought particularly for Hong Kong.

The briefest of glances at our showwindows will convince you that you can,
