stands enshrined in their hearts, entrenched behind years and ycais of
traditions, where it remains impervious to all outside attacks. From
the hallowed Shrine of Liberty to the newest and greatest of its sky

development of the city, but nothing has more effectually contributed
to its growth in fame and prosperity than tho integtity of the Chest

PARCHMENT lamp shades that
were undoubtedly beautiful,
done in colors to match the
bowl of the lamps or with brilliant
dotal or bird designs, had quite a
vocue. but the latest arrivuls at
i Bailey, Banks & Biddle Company
have struck an entirely new vein,
one. wo might say, moro in keeping
with paichmcnt, the inspiration for
their hand decoration having evi
Jently been drawn, from medieval
Italian art, some fiom the period of
illumined missals, others from the
earlv Renaissance, when Botticelli
and Ghirlandajo brought imagina
, tion into play. All run into tones of
, mellow sunlight, and as there are no

you choose one bearing an Italian
verse, a statuesque representation of
"La Fcde" or airy cupids and gar
lands, you arc bound to have a
unique shade.
IF YOU want to learn what the
latest spring fashions arc to be,
drop in nt Jacob Reed's Sons,
1424-2G Chestnut street, and feast
your eyes upon their display. It
won't cost you a cent to look over the
choicest lines that the united brains
of America's best manufacturers
produce, and there is no charge made
for answering questions. Thats
what all those well-informed and
polite salesmen are employed for:
to give you any information you
may desiie and to help you select
vour new Spring Suit and Overcoat.
Easter is still twenty davs off, but
warm weather seems to be luiking
just around the corner, and those
winter clothes you have on are as
suredly beginning to feel cumber
some and heavy. Better pick out a
Suit and Top Coat while you have
i the opportunity.
ffTOLONAISE" rugs have a
V most romantic history. When
Ficderick the Great conquered
i Poland and seized them thev were
IhoURht to bo examples oi cany
Polish ait, though, in reality, they
were trophies of war captured from
the Tuiks. All were priceless gems,
interwoven with gold and silver
threads and probably dated from the
teign of Shah Abbas of Persia, when
rug making i cached its highest
point. Today in the window' of
Fritz & La Rue, 1124 Chestnut
stieet. is an exact and wonderfully
beautiful Ishmidt reproduction of
one of these treasures, owned by
Baron Albert Rothschild. On a sil
ver grav field bordered with old blue
Ho gold medallions and undulating
floial and arabesque figures in har
monious tans, browns and blues, the
same colors appearing again in the
charming trefoil border design.
HOW I wish I had the gift of
language and could paint for
you a word picture of the ex
nuisite baskets of fruits Henry R.
Hallowell & Son. Broad below Chest
nut street, are displaying. Many are
bought as presents to send friends
in town or out of tojvn, the latter
going by parcel post, special deliv
ery, and you have probably never
conceived that there was such a va
riety of beautiful baskets in exist
ence. Every size and shape, all hand
made, some hand painted and con
structed especially for the purpose.
But thev are not feasts for the eye
alone, the luscious fruits, gathered
from the world's markets and ar
ranged with tender care and artistic
ability, are the acme of all that is
desirable. Even the illustrated
catalogue, sent op request, (Ills one
IN THE past I wondered why men
became auctioneers, but since
frequently the Philadelphia Art
and Auction Rooms. S. E. cor. 15th
and Chestnut street, I have discov
ered tho seciet, though perhaps few
handle as gieat a number and va
riety of valuable at tides as does
Mr. Reed H. Walmer. He has just
finished disposing of a fine collec
tion of paintings, and now comes
another large consignment of U. S.
Government nronertv: household ap
pointments, etc., which will be sold i
in April. Then at 10 a. m. today the j
regular Monday auction of inex-1
pensive miscellaneous articles takes I
place on the third floor. The bal-1
ancc of the week will be spent in
preparing for a later sale in tho Art
Rooms of the effects of a prominent
estate: att objects, furniture and
particulatly finr- Oriental tugs.
IF YOU go down town today do
not forget to examine the win
dow of E. Bradford Clarke Com
pany, 1520 Chestnut street. They
have it filled with canned vegetables,
not just the tin cans stacked in piles
and pyramids, but so cleverly and
appctizingly arranged that you can
not fail to be attracted. On plates
tcpobe samples of each variety, and
by taking a good look you will see
exactly what you are getting before
ordering- You should be glad to
stock up at the special prices they
are being offered, for there is no
predicting from present conditions
how long the country's supply will
last, so much i3 going abioad. and
it would be a deprivation to forego
delicious Tomatoes, big and little
Peas, Striqg Beans, extra thick tip
and fulj-length Asparagus, and the
young, tender Corn that made Maine
famous.
WHEN you find that the moths
have dined on the family
woolens, and have made
their dcsseit on your most elegant
furs, it is too late to wish you had
protected them properly against at
tacks of these nests by packing them
away in the Tarine Garment Bags,
sold at the Housefurnishing Stoie of
J. Franklin Miller, 1612 Chestnut
street. Made of strong paper, they
come from muff to auto coat size.
30x5x64 inches, and may be used
year after year. After thoroughly
brushing and shaking the garment,
hang it on the hook provided inside
each Tarine Bag. Then slide the
patent closing tube in place, sus
pend the bag in the closet by the
outside hook, and you have a moth
and dust proof protection for your
best clothes, and for the others vou
can buy Tar Balls at the same shop.
PORTFOLIOS have multiplied
and multiplied until they now
meet all requirements, and
those who have grown accustomed
to them would bo greatly incon
venienced were the supply to be sud
denly cut off. Luckily, just the con
trary is being done. A. Pomerantz
