The full assurance of securing the best possible value at the lowestpossible price adds yet another reason for visiting the charmingpremises of Messrs. Slimmer and Bang. Their Service knick-knacks cannotbe overpraised. Glancing hastily around, I noticed several with devicesall calculated not only to be useful but to amuse at the Front, whereverour stalwart representatives are gathered. One of the most practical is a boot-cleaning set in strong pigskin withgold clasps, including, very ingeniousl...y, a bottle of patent-leatherreviver. Another pigskin, indispensable at the Front, holds a completetea-set. It resembles the old tea-basket, but weighs at least fiveounces less (no small matter on the march, I am told) and is morecompact. With such a gift as this, no officer need ever again go withouttea in the trenches. Messrs. Slimmer and Bang are to be congratulated. Anything more charming than the Service card-cases at Messrs. Slossonand Kay's I have never seen. One side is intended for paper notes, ofwhich every officer at the Front is in constant need; the other half isreserved for his visiting-cards, which it is _de rigueur_, I am told, toleave on the enemy after every visit to their trenches.
