Germantown Man Falls Dead Samuel Wood, seventy-one years old, of (5015 Keyacr street, fell dead yester day afternoon while walking on Coulter street nenr Germantown avenue. Wood was foreman of the jury which con victed n. IF. IIoIiuph after one of the most sensational murder trials in the history of Philadelphia. A flrcboat came near Hlnklne nt her dock at the Race street pier todjy. The , csscl. the Kiln in S.

Brooklyn. N. Y. Bi MIVKRTIRKMRNT AIVi:ilTI8EMENT The Chestnut Street Shops are ablaze with Christmas colors these days and every window seems filled with gift suggestions. A walk along Chestnut street, especially in the morning before the stores are crowded, gives you a host of new ideas for your shopping list. Most of us are weary of he "do-your-Christmas-shopping-early" plea, yet there are many who still put off their Christmas buying until the last possible moment, and so it will do no harm to remind you that Christ mas is less than a week away. MriHEIlE are few of us who drink I enough water, but it has gained " considerably in favor as a beverage since July 1. Those of us who do enjoy a glass of water lust before retiring and. first thing in the morning would appreciate as a Christmas gift one of those pretty thermos sets which include bottle, glass and tray. You will find them at the storo'of J. Franklin Miller, 1612 Chestnut street, and you will not find it difficult to choose a color which will harmonize with the fur nishings of the room in which it is. to be placed, for never have I seen thermos bottles with such decorative possibilities. There-is-one set paint ed in a rich ivory shade with a band of tiny rosebuds which is particu larly interesting, and would look very well with ivory furniture. PASSING by the store of N. Stet son & Company, 1111 Chestnut street, the other day. I noticed something new, and being of a curious turn of.mind, returned for a second look. It was a small port able phonographthe most compact that I have yet seen. It plays all records most satisfactorily and is just the tiling to liven up your week end parties. It has a handle by which it can be conveniently carried, and not the least of its merits lies in the fact that it is inexpensive. Ask to hear the Cirola, for that is its name, and you will be delighted with it. They are quite enthusiastic about it at Stetson's, for it is so convenient and practical. It would make a most acceptable gift, for it is one that everv one in the family would ap preciate. JUDGING from the interest' which every one seems to be showing in the flexible jeweled bracelets at the store of Bailey, Banks & Bid die Company, many a debutante is going to wear a band of precious atones on her fair, white arm at Christmas week festivities. These bracelets are expuisitely fashioned: each one is in itself a masterpiece of the jeweler's handicraft. One. a band of sparkling diamonds, has a large stone in the center, with smaller diamonds on either side. Others are set with emeralds and diamonds, rubies and diamonds and sapphires and diamonds. Bar pins are lovely, too, for Christmas gifts, and there are many beautiful ones at tii;..' A Vinr nin is one D1CC0 01 jewelry that every woman really iwf nnnreciaies. TOR friends living outside of H Philadelphia you can devise no ' better Christmas gift than one of Hallowell's Gift-Baskets of Fruit. Out-of-town people always delight in the novelty of these Gift-Baskets of Fruit, for they are not obtainable in other cities. Henry R. HalloweU & Son, Broad street below Chestnut, have so perfected their system of shipping that they guarantee deliv ery of a Gift-Basket of Fruit in per fect condition to points 1000 miles distant from Philadelphia. Of course, the speed with which these deliveries are made is one reason why they ar rive with each piece of fruit'in place, but that is part of the system. The baskets are beautiful, and when filled with Hallowell's luscious fruits, they make' the most delectable Christmas gift that any one could wish for. r-f-IHERE is no more practical piece B of jewelry than a good watch. i favor of - And there is no gift that appeals' muffler i to a man more than something that ho can use. The new thin watches are so attractive and so much more convenient to carry than the bulky ones which pur grandfathers wore. that even if a man possesses one of these large timepieces which he treasures as an heirloom he often finds it much more practical to carry a smaller watch which is dependable as a timekeeper. At the stores of I. Press & Sons. Chestnut and Eighth, streets, 1017 Market street ajiu uyu Market street, I saw some very good-looking models; one which I admired particularly was octagon shaped. These watches are of re liable makes and, on the whole, seem i, to he very moderately priced. NECKWEAR of gSod quality is a Christmas gift which ap peals to every man. Very oft en he does not buy expensive ties when shopping for himself, and so appreciates them all the more when' he receives them at Christmas time. Knitted silk neckwear is a particu larly good investment. It wears well and holds its shape. Marshall & Bush, Inc., 1018 Chestnut street and 113 South Thirteenth street, have some really beautiful knitted ties in ' plain colors and stripes. They are full-fashioned and of excellent qual ity, Hand-loomed Italian grenadines I are also very good, and are a partic-' ularly good choice now, because it is so uimcuit to oDtain uie genuine grenadines. Crepes de chine m plain colors are always good and always liked. JUST about this season of the year you begin to feel that time a um muei iinpurmia imng in the world. There seem to be so many things you could do if there were! only twenty-five instead of twenty-! four hours in a day. You will save yourself much" time by doing youri shopping early in the morning, and the very best way to get an early I start is to breakfast in town. At the Cheri restaurants, 124 South' Thirteenth street and 132 South Fif teenth strppt. vnn will finl ...,.... breakfast ready for you when vou arrive. The food is delicious and one dish that you must not miss is waffles and maple syrup. The Cheri restaurants are noted for the excel lence of their service, so you can rest assured that the hot dishes you order will be hot when they arrive. ONE would almost be tempted to purchase one of those good looking Japanese cigarette boxes, if for no ntbpr runnn v,.. that it adds so much to the attract iveness of the library table. Filled with cigarettes, it would make a most acceptable Christmas gift. Those which I saw at Yahn & McDonnell's shop in the Widener Building were particularly good looking. Another gift on which you simply can't go wrong is cigars. If you know that a man smokes cigars then you know what he wants for Christmas. At the Yahn & McDonnell stores, Chest nut and Fifteenth streets, 1437 Chestnut street, 120 South Fourth street and also in the Widener Build ing shop, which I've already men tioned, you will find both imported and domestic brands. A FUR-LINED overcoat is one of those little luxuries that a man is sometimes prone to think he can't afford. But that is where it comes in as a Christmas gift, and you may be sure it will be a welcome! one. These fun-lined overcoats are not so high-priced as you would think, and they wear so wett that they are really a good in vestment. I was surprised myself to learn that it is possible to pur chase a fur-lined overcoat at sucli reasonable prices as those in Mac donald & Campbell's, 1334-30 Chest nut street. They are good-looking, comfortable coats of fleeces and chnviots in grays, browns and heather mixtures. The linings are of natural and blended muskrat, mar mot, nutria or eastern mink, and the collars are of beaver, otter or Hud son seal. rrl 00 mucin can hardly be said in the knitted scarf or as a Christmas tr f t. There are few men who are not in cluding them in the list of "things 1 want for Christmas." Jacob Reed's Sons, 1424-2G Chestnut street, have some of the finest and most ex quisitely colored ones that I have seen. There are accordion weaves in various color combinations .and plain crocheted silks. The Swiss ribbed mufflers are new and very much liked. They come in plain colors and stripes. The black-and-white scarfs and the all-white ones for evenino wear would be appreciated by the man who already has oho of the col ored mufflers. There are angora scarfs, too, and those soft handker chief mufflers of English foulards, which are so con?nient to carry, J THE CHESTNUT .STREET ASSOCIATION Straw it & C othier Aifise an Ei riy Start TtHnmrrow Be in BTrflo (P -1 fan o ras? 0 w vwi n xi me ror tne umstmas music ana i aw eaux a 1430 This is the most wonderful Christmas season we have ever had.
