THE BURFRON 
"The Most Practical and Effective 
Service Weatherproof Ever Invented." 
XHE BURFRON supplies the 
■*■ Soldier with ii top-coat suffi- 
ciently staunch to ensure healthful 
vvariBth, and to resist driving rain 
or biting wind, yet light and smart 
enough for use when off duty. 
ALL PREVIOUS Service 
^^ Weatherproofs have suffered 
from one vital fault. Walking, rid- 
ing, or driving, the vulnerable point 
has always been the openingii 
between the buttonings in front, 
through which both wet and wind 
are able to effect an entrance. 
THE BURFRON has no such 
* openings, and completely pro- 
tects the front of the body, as well 
as the back and sides. The skirts 
cannot possibly blow open and ex- 
pose the legs, nor cling to thi- 
knees when walking.
