I OLD RELIABLE DRUG STOKE has
j always been noted as headquarters for
; holiday goods.
I See the new Platnum Photos at
! Schriever's Gallery. They are just the
thing for Xmas presents.
STERLING SILVER novelties at Tag
gart's drug store. Goods guaranteed
and prices will surprise you.
Don't mind bad weather but goto
Schriever's and have your Xmas
photos made. See his latest styles.
Have your pictures framed at Sch
riever's. He has a new and large line
of mouldings and frames always on
. hand.
XMAS PHOTOS.—There is nothing
more acceptable for an Xmas present
than a good photo of yourself. Sch
riever makes them you know.
FOR SALE.—One span of good, heavy
draught-horses, with harness, nearly
new; also a pair of bob sleds used but a
few weeks; all at a bargain. Price
away down.
MRS. N. E. TAYLOR,
41-2t Sterling Run.
FOR SALE.—A number of tine dwel
lings and properties for sale in Em
porium. Well located and provided
with all modern conveniences. Terms
reasonable. Inquire of
B. W. GREEN,
38-4t. c. W. SHAFFER.
A TIP ON CUT GLASS.—WhiIe cut
glass will never entirely take the place of
silver, yet the demand for the beauti
iul and artistic cut glass dishes is con
stantly increasing. We notice some of
the choicest patterns from the most
celebrated makers at Metzger's, at as
tonishing low prices. 41-2t.
HOLIDAY EXCURSION RATES.—In ac
cordance with an old established custom
the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg Ry.
will, this year, issue excursiod tickets
between all stations on its line, account
Christmas and New Years Holidays, at
a fare and one-third for the round trip.
Tickets will be sold and good going on
Dec. 23, 24, 25, 30 and 31, 1599, limited i
for return passage until Jan. 2, 1900.
_ » 41-4t.
Make your hens lay—eggs are valu
able. You can do so if you give them
proper material and attention. The
material you can procure at our store.
Leave your orders for Christmas
and New Year poultry with us. Don't
wait until the eleventh hour and then
want to kick yourself because you
didn't get what you wanted.
DAY'S.
THE FAD FOR EBONY. —Perhaps the
most appreciated present a young man
can receive is a fine hair brush. A
really fine brush is a luxury. Genuine
ebony is the most suitable material for
a good brush as it is not only durable ,
but handsome. Now put on one, two
or three of those elegant sterling
silver initals, and you have a present
fit for a king. The lino at Metzger'B is
the best I have seen and the young
men are watching it eagerly. 41-2
SOMETHING ABOUT RINGS.—More
rings are being worn this season than <
for years past, and while fashion de
crees that more jewelry of all kinds
shall be worn, finger rings are the
favored articles. Opals are the favorite
settings, both in solitaire and in
combination with other stones, the
latter way being probably the most 1
popular. I notice that Met/.ger has an
an elegant assortment of carefully
selected rings at very reasonable
prices. 41-*>t

Low (ias.
General complaint is being made
thus early in the winter, by those con- j
suming gas, at the low pressure and j
small amount of gas. As a result our j
people are looking up coal or wood
stoves and do not intend to be caught |
this winter as they were last. 1

THAT old chestnut, "fresh drugs,
pure drugs, compounded drugs," is so
stale and so expensive that it hits lost
its charm, and people are going to
Taggart's with their prescriptions,
where they find a competent clerk, and
Taggart, whose health is fully recover
ed, is constantly on hand, and certainly
his thirty years experience is of itself a
sufficient guarantee to insure accuracy
and the two together insures you
promptness and despatch that you
can't get in any other store in town.
