"Monaybak" silks are black-
ailks that postosa these uni ua
characteristics -— absolute pu ty
of dye. freedom from chemicals
that give weight and take awa
strength a liberal insurance po-
icy with every yard.
This store. the monoyback
store. has been selected as the
selling-agent for Bridgeport for
these trustworthy handsome silks.
“Moneybak” silks are more like
the silks the ancient weavers
made than any others now pro-
duced in the wide world. It is a
fashion with some makers to
“load" black silks with chemicals
to increase their weight and add
to their looks. The "Moneybak"
silk. makers do not follow this
fashion. Every yard of “Money-
bak" silk is guaranteed to be pure
dye and to woar~,-and the am-
antee is fulfilled both or spirit and
letter.
To begin witL, the best raw silk
is used. Then only ‘pui'cy dy o.
Then careful expert‘ap hiring and
weaving. 't'nen. selling at a rea-
sonable price.
All “Monoybak” silk is woven
with a patent detachable selvedgc
that bears its name inwhite. But
not all silk comesfrom the loom
garfcct; (not even all "Money-
k" silk)). and from a cor piece
the selvcdge is cat. no small
poor spot causes the rljection of
the piece; for that one poor spot
might spoil your gown on which
much time as Well as money had
been spent. “Moneybak” on the
solved 5e guarantees quality. pur-
ity an durability.
Here are the "Moneybak" prin-
ciples:
Long wear .
Highest quality.
Absolute protection.
Reasonable cost.
Every woman who reads this
can appreciate these principles
and al they mean.
And every woman who reads
this should come and look at these
silks and learn of the "Money-
bak" methods
