We have been unwilling even in these days of the high cost of all materials
used in brewing to sacrifice anything in the quality of the materials which weuse for the purpose of saving in expense.
The constantly increasing Harvard Beer clientele and the pleasing words ofcommendation coming constantly to us demonstrate that our course in addition to
being pleasing to us as a matter of principle is also a sound business policy.

WHEN the Holiday crowds begin to appear andyou desire to make your selections in a roornystore, which is easy of access, visit ours andsave the many inconveniences of the narrow
sidewalk congested district.
There has not enough been said in praise of TremontStreet as being the finest in Boston for retail shop-ping. Bostonians have become so accustomed to
narrow sidewalks that compel them to walk in thestreets amongst the horses, wagons and automobilesthat they fail to sufficiently appreciate their finest
shopping street. Tremont Street, from our store onthe one side and the Parker House on the other, to
the Hotel Touraine, a distance of a short half mile, is
what is considered by residents of other large cities
as the finest Shopping Section in the city of Boston.
The advantages offered by our store to the HolidayShopper are many, and we feel that we are very for-
tunately located as far as the convenience of ourpatrons is concerned, located as it is midway betweentwo of the largest subway stations in the city, andbut a short distance from either one. From the ParkStreet Station, opposite Winter Street, it can bereached by one of the widest sidewalks in Boston.
We are also conveniently located for automobile trade.
Our Beacon and Somerset Street entrance can bereached without encountering any of the delays ordangers of the congested section.

HOLLIS ST. THEATRENEXT ATTRACTION
“THE 13th CHAIR’^Invested with the prestige which it
acquired during a solid year’s' run in
New York, ‘The 13ih Chair,’' WilliamHarris, Jr’s, production of Bayard Veil-
ler’s melodrama of mystery, will cometo Boston at the Hollis St. Theatre foran engagement beginning ChristmasNight,December 25. Outof thescoresoftheatrical offerings made each seasonin New York a few just a few— inva-riably stand out as unusual successesand one or two as veritable triumphs.During the past season “The 13thChair” made a place for itself at thevery head of the list. When other playsstaged at about the same time had longsince forsaken Broadway for a tour ofother cities,.this piece of Bayard Veillercontinued to crowd the theatre atwhich it was the attraction. Changesof season had no effect upon its popu-larity—the house was crowded in mid-summer as well as during Christmasweek — nor did other troublesome in-
fluences have any effect upon its
staying qualities. Which meant andwas accepted without question as anassurance of exceptional merit.That its long run in New York was
justified will be amply proven by its
engagement here, for it is safe to saythat no other theatrical announcementto be made this season -or that hasbeen made for several seasons past —will awaken such wide interest as thatof the approach of this very unusualsuccess. Bayard Veiller also wrote“Within the Law” which until now hasbeen regarded as the most emphaticstage triumph of this generation. Nowin “The 13th Chair” Veiller has veri-
tably outdone himself, for his newpiece is an even greater popular suc-cess than the first.
The N. Y. cast comes to the Hollis in
“The 13th Chair.” At the head ofwhich is Margaret Wycherly andamong its members who are almost aswell known are Harrison Hunter,George Graham, Eva Condon, EileneVan Biene, Gertrude Dalton, SarahWhiteford, Bruce Elmore, Perce Ben-ton, A. T. Hendon, Martha Mayoand Charles Laite.
