FOR MEN Q AlertVjgW lyQiriytmas Qxcitgl I felt as though Christmas was; here now, when X heard the beauti- | ful Christmas hymns at the J. 11. Troup Music House, 14 S. Market Square, on the different phonographs which they offer. The majestic beauty ' find ringing gladness of an old Por tuguese hymn appealed to me, and the pleasure of selecting records at thit store, is that one is able to get eo many helpful suggestions as to which records might best suit one's Individual taste. This is the only store, too, where one may find every record of Columbia, Edison and Vic tor makes, and in cases where the tamo record is offered in more than on catalogue, as the "Adeste Fidelis," one may hear both and take the pre ferred record. AMERICAN GENIUS We are all very proud of manu factured articles which are "Made in America," but how much prouder we may bo of the genius which America has produced! Robert Service, has been called the Kipling of Atnerica, and his clever verses, full of life and action are most entertaining. The Ootterel Book Store, 9 N. Market Bquare offer some of his most popular volumes attractively bound in cloth to sell for Just SI.OO for the holidays, and they make most acceptable gifts, Two of his best-llked volumes, and i. new book Just published are offer ed, as well as soma- books of similar \ interest by other writers. - THE LUXURY OF FURS These blustry, windy days blow roses Into your cheeks, but you must be warmly dresses to enjoy being out-doors now, and nothing is more conducive to solid winter comfort than the luxury of soft, warm furs. At Astrlch's, Fourth and Market streets, I saw some most attractive muffs in long-hatred black fur, which ccmpares very favorably with genu ine black fox, and really gives much better service, for the wearing qual ities of these furs aro excellent and they are made In newest and most Seslrablo styles. Beautiful muffs are shown at prices ranging from $7.60 to sls, whilo attractive scarfs may be bad at similar prices. THE NEW SKATING BOOT Unfortunately we cannot enjoy weekly style exhibits at a fashionable skating rink, but we can see every week the smartest of the new styles, nd a very smart skating boot Is now Offered at the Walk-Over Boot Shop. 226 Market street, where the newest designs are always shown Just as they (ire in the larger cities. This skat ing, boot Is of fawn colored deer skin, made In a blucher model with low heel, rounded toe, and smart stltch lngs. Its warmth, and serviceability make Is most satisfactory for any kind winter sports, while Its stylo la |o good that It oould be worn with pride on tho most fashionable slvat lng rinks. It sells for Just $7.00. rXIOSE PINK PAJAMAS AND OTHERS Do you remember the year that -the Pink Pajama Girl occupied the center f the stage? This year tho Doutrich Store for Men, 304 Market street oc tuples the center of the stage, and their pajamas for men are very prominently before the footlights There are shown In all kind, pa iamas In flannelette and In merceriz d materials, soma trimmed with silk THURSDAY EVENING, frogs, and even men who have been dissatisfied with the two-pleec models will welcome the one-piece pajamas, also shown by Doutrichs, which are suspended from the shoulder and do away with any discomfort at the waistline, though they retain the ap pearance of the two-piece models. This store furnishes boxes free of charge for all goods purchased for Christmas gifts. THE HOME AT YILETIDE When the young people come home from school, when the bride comes back to the parents' home. when relatives from far away gather to gether for the Christmas holidays,— then is the time when the service of an expert in homo portraiture are most valued, and the Roshon Studio, 8 N. Market Square, makes a spe cialty of going to the home to take either single or group pictures. In this way all the pleasure of family life can be retained In photographs that show the home an'd its occupants in the most natural and favorable conditions, and the cost of work of this kind is most reasonable, and Hoshon photographs are known for the excellent results invariably ob tained. CHRISTMAS CANDLES Burn the Christmas candles, "make bright this house of your habitation" at Yuletide, and for this purpose the loveliest of Christmas candles are shown at the Studebaker Grocery Store, (now owned by Mr. George Barnes) Second street at the crossing of State. There are the beautiful Adamantine candles in altar height, the graceful twisted candles for table decoration, V.'hllo the candles in Christmas red with a conventional design in green are most appropriate for Yu'.etide. This store offers candles in all colors, those in white 1 with a line of black, being especially ■ pretty, and some are shown in at tractive boxes ready for Christmas giving. THE NEW BRACELETS If you never liked bracelets before, ! you will like the beautiful new flat i link bracelets shown at the H. C. Claster Jewelry Shop, 802 Market [ street, for no one could be indifferent : to tlieir captivating charm. Numerous j desins are shown, many in the lovely green gold, hand chaste in exquisite | designs ranging in price from SIO.OO I up. One lovely bracelet of tiny, flat oblong links of solid gold was set with a beautiful emerald, others have settings of sapphires, amethysts and other precious stones, while my eye was caught and delighted by a dazzling row of diamonds set into a link bracelet of platinum. BOUDOIR PILLOWS FOR GIFTS Some of the prettiest gifts I have seen this year were handmade bou doir pillows, and I found the most attractive designs for these at the Woman's Exchange, Third street at Hcrr. They have some perfect beau ties In genuine Madeira, priced from $1.50 up, while the assortment of stamped pillow tops and slips Is most complete. Those with hemstitched hems, stamped for embroidery are most attractive and very easy to make and sell for 86c and SI.OO, while new designs in filet are suggested for those who crochet ana Instruction books, linens, and all needed mate rials for making including the pillows i may be had at this shop.

Rheuma acts with speed; it brings in a few days the relief you have prayed for. It antagonizes the poisons that cause agony and pain in the joints and muscles and quickly the torturing soreness completely disappears. It is a harmless remedy, but sure and certain, because it is one dis covery that has forced rheumatism and sciatica to yield and disappear. Try a 60-cent bottle of Rheuma and If you do not get the Joyful relief you expect, your money will be returned. FT. C. Kennedy always has a supply of Rheuma and guarantees it to you— Advertisement.
