THE TRUE VALUE of a Water- proof is not determined by what is seen. The inside layer of rubbei prabfing must be of the very best quality to render a Mackintoak a protection against continual rain." WATTS' WATERPROOFS are proofed with pure Para rubber; this does not decay or go hard. The gar- ments are therefore impregnable against rain until quite worn out. The weakest place of an ordinary Mackintosh is in the seams. Now, these coats have not the ordinary seams. When made each of these garments is stripped at the seami so that when completed the Yearns have been welded together just like the fabric of the coat, making it im- possible for any water to penetrate.1 You will see that these coats have not been made with ordinary materials, nor in the ordinary way. THEY ARE YERY SPECIAL COATS. ODOURLESS- COMFORTABLE—SMART. They will not show mud and dirt. Your size is here, even if you are 46 inches on the chest. II CUSTOMER AND I. PERSONAL GDARAWKI. 8, BULWARK, BRBOON. J HEREBY GUARANTEE these Coats to be ABSOLUTELY WATERPROOF, and will replace gratis any faulty Coat (subjected to fair usage) within twelve months. (Signed) If unable to call send post card for book of free patterns. A very Large Stock of BWs' and YOUTHS' MACKINTOSHES (made from short lengths of materials) just received. WONDERFUL VALUE.
