Xlli: OFFICER'S UNIFORM, like practkally every other article of 
equipment, is passing throiiyh i\ process of evolution, necessitated by 
modern warfare. Th« ■steel helmet has already proved most useful 
apainst shrapnel fragments, ami tho officer's Jacket patented by Messrs. 
Willdnson, PaU Mall, is undoubtedly of even greater efficiency. It will 
certainly prevent wounds cau.se<i by shell fire, which, if not actually 
fatal, may cause absence from duty for many weeks. 
The WILKINSON PATENT UULLET-PHOOF .lACKET is lined with hisrhly- 
tempered steel, which resists a .4i>j Uevolver Bullet at 20 yards, and in 
app^'aranee is just the same as a dosc-ftttins well-made jacket. Fitted 
by an expert, the sli;?ht adilitional weight is so distributed that it is not 
apparent to the wearer.

The"EQUITOR" Coat 
There is special provision for 
mounted wear in the attached 
apron buttoning on one side. This 
absolutely shuts out any rain, and 
when not in use fastens conveni- 
ently (out of sight) on the inside 
of coat, which tJien serves just as 
well for ordinary wear afoot. 
One of the recommended materials, 
No. 31, in colour an approved mili- 
tary fawn, is a tough though 
finely-woven fabric, light in 
weight, yet absolutely reliable for 
hard wear and tear. 
When ordering an "Equitor" or "Ser- 
vice" Coat (the "Service ' Coat Is made 
without the attached apron) or direct- 
ing that one be sent on approval, height 
and chest measure, and reference, 
should be given.
