DBESS GOODS
The commercial supremacy of Britain lies in
the thoroughness she applies tothe smallest
details. Her manufactured fabrics are known
the world over for the exhaustive care applied
to all the processes used in their production.
"PRIESTLEYS' DRESS GOODS" is
A Case in Point
Who has not heard of Priestleys' and who
that has not associated Priestleys with
EXCELLENCE
SUPERIORITY
ATTRACTIVENESS
And this for the reason that long, long years
ago when the foundations of the Firm were
being laid, truly British principles were adopt.
ed that good quality and material. downright
thoroughness in manufacture would charac-
terize all Priestleys' Goods.
Priestleys' as Usual
In Spite of the War.
IN spite of the war, which has wrought havoc in
the textile industry, we are able to offer our
customers a full line of the famous
ow -DRESS 'OOHS
Our orders were placed months ago, and, thanks to
the British Navy, our shipments from the great,
Priestley mills at Bradford, England, came through
without interruption. Those mills are now working
night and day on cloth for the Allied Armies.
Our Spring, 1915, line of Priestleys' goods includes
all the staple fabrics that have been so deservedly
popular for years, and also a most attractive assort-
ment of this season's latest novelties in a bewildering
array of new weaves and colours.
An incompetant artisan finds no place at Prestley's--only the best need ap-
ply and the best are selected from the fittest that have passed through the
different stages of experiment and trial. Thisi i'the drama that lies behind
the scenes in the production of the World -Famous Priestleys' and when you
take up a piece of Priestleys' Goods, and examine the soft, close texture, the
. flawless weave, the conformity of fibre for the general scheme of the goods,
the unwavering coloring, the glowing finish and the "well-bred air" that
Priestleys are able to impart to all their goods, you are compelled to admiration.
The demand for Priestleys' goods is universal; the famous looms at Bradford never cease—day
and night the nervous shuttle flies. thread by thread, inch by inch. yard by yard, piling up an
enormous yardage for world-wide distribution.
tWhereverFyou.,fiind WELL DRESSED WOMEN you find Priestleys' Dress Goods popular, and
fashionable ladies' tailors know that their most exacting -customers insist on having the goods
which are rolled on the varnished board. -
