SIX CHANCES IN 100 FOR PURE SILK HOSIERY! Ladies! That's a sad but true fact, and the situation has got to be faced. Because raw silk has almost disappeared from the market, it is no longer possible to make more than six pairs of pure silk full-fashioned hosiery in every 100—and the Army Nursing Services have preference for these. So—you've got to find the best substitute possible for pure silk hosiery for your XI coupon before the 25th instant. Remember, that only six pairs of all hosiery, local or imported, can be pure silk fullfashioned. Apart from the shortage of silk, only men can work the heavy, intricate, large machinery needed for full-fashioning, and there just aren't the men available. So—face up to this unavoidable sacrifice and adapt yourselves to conditions. There is a way out. It's provided for you by Bonds, the makers of the exquisite silk hosiery you've appreciated for so long. Buy Bonds special war-time non-full-fashioned hosiery. It's made of fine durable fabric, in good colours. It looks well and wears well—and it's not expensive. Bonds are making this special hosiery at from 3/6 to 4/11, and your retailer has it. Spend that XI coupon on Bonds.—(Ad.).
