THE BURBERRY-in distinctive cloths, woven and proofed by special Burberry processes, whilst maintaining the perfect self-ventilation of an untreated coat, realises the extreme limit of healthful protection against wet or cold weather. THE BURBERRY is invaluable as a top-coat for fine days. Smart and becoming in design, it is as serviceable for town as for country, whilst for motoring it supplies a splendid safeguard against wind or dust, besides providing the warmth essential to comfort. THE BURBERRY retains its distinguished appearance throughout long service, and its unrivalled protective properties withstand attacks of wear or weather for an almost incalculable length of time. BURBERRYS Haymarket The Element of Safety in the Service of Process. Every Solicitor will have in mind cases in which Judgments have been set aside through bad service. The Solicitor will probably regard himself as fortunate who has had no more serious experience in effecting Service of Writs. Actions for wrongful execution are not unknown. In Bankruptcy also great care is often needed to avoid bad Service with its resultant application to set aside or annul proceedings or worse. Against the above Risks the Solicitor who employs an irresponsible process server has no protection. No Solicitor can suffer in this way through us.

NO ONE can foretell with any degree of confidence the course of the Stock and Share Market during the next few months. Everything depends on the trend of events in the war area. But certain business is being done, and it is possible to dispose of certain classes of shares at prices far removed from "panic." It may well pay some Investors to realise, even though between purchase and sale prices the transaction shows a loss. The proceeds, used to purchase a "Sun Life of Canada" Annuity, will almost certainly bring in an income much larger than that enjoyed previously, and the income. moreover will be certain for life. Why Rates are so Favourable. THE "Sun Life of Canada" quotes more favourable rates than any other first-class Company. The assets of £11,300,000, invested under strict Government supervision, bring in at least 2% more than the average interest earned by Home Offices. Consequently, the "Sun Life of Canada" can afford to quote terms in many instances from 5% to 10% lower than its Home Competitors. And the security is equal to that of any Office in the World. The Manager of the "Sun Life of Canada" will be pleased to discuss details with any Solicitor who desires further information. Consultation may clear away difficulties which seem at the moment to bar the way to a transaction which otherwise would be most favourable for the client whose interests are under discussion.
