We have made Complete Arrangements for Your Convenience.
A FULL DINNER-TABLE FOR YOU WHILE OTHERS STARVE.
Hors d'Œuvres.—Ensure your hors d'œuvres by allowing us to turn your bath into a sardine tank. Your basement too should make an excellent quite oyster bed. We would flood it for you.
Soups.—The mock turtles we supply are quite tame, and while waiting to be made into soup should keep your children amused. We also deliver Salted Oxtail by the furlong. Send for patterns.
Fish.—Try one of our Frozen Whales and I assure your fish course for the next six months.
Joints.—Sheep-folds (with sheep) supplied at shortest notice to fit your tennis court, or you might order one of our Handy Styes, which have accommodation for half-a-dozen pigs (congenial company) and are suitable for erection in a corner of any flat or private residence.
Sweets.—Our "one ton" plum puddings placed in position on your premises by our own cranes.

A Grateful Customer writes.:—"Your transformation of my boudoir into a hen-pen is quite admirable, and enables us to face the future with complete calm. As your circular reminds us, one feels more comfortable about one's country when one is safe oneself."
Another writes:—"Many thanks for prompt attention. The night-nursery makes an excellent cow-house, and the two cows used the passenger-lift with perfect success.
