Some day when the turmoil of
Christmas shopping is "getting on
your nerves" just drop in to the cozy
little tea room of the Golden Seal
Drug Store. 11 S. Market Square, and
you will not only find your spirits re
vived by a bowl of steaming boullion,
or a cup of hot tea or chocolate with
a. dainty sandwich, but you will be
delighted, too. with the numerous gift
suggestions so conveniently displayed,
for at this store it is easy to buy gifts
for everyone. There are the splendid
Ansco cameras in complete assort
ment, lovely sets and single pieces of
■white ivory, beautiful gift boxes of
perfumes, Christmas stationery and
most delicious candies.
"BE WHAT YOR IS"
"Don't be what you ain't, but be.
•what you is." was the inelegant but
expressive theme of one of the de
lightful songs sung by Miss Kitty
Cheatham the other night, and it
struck me as being just the motto of
Astrich's Fur Department. Fourth and
Market streets, for in their large as
sortment of Christmas furs, where
pelts of various kinds and qualities
are shown, each is given its proper
name and value, and customers may
put perfect confidence in any state
ment made by this store in regard
to furs. The Christmas furs are par
ticularly desirable this year, and every
piece is new in style and design.
Though the scarcity of furs has made
them high in price, everywhere the
prices asked at Astrich's are quite
moderate.
CHRISTMAS "GOODIES"
All the "goodies" of Christmas |
time which are offered in such abun
dance at the Studebaker Grocery
Store, (now owned by Mr. George
Barnes) Second street at the crossing
of State, lend themselves admirably
to the decorative scheme of woodland i
colorings which is suggested there. A
Japanese basket in brown tones
(which, by the way, are selling there
for almost nothing) heaped with
iruit, or one of the flat trays with
graceful handle, tilled with nuts,
raisins, stuffed dates and dotted with
candied cherries makes a bountiful
centerpiece, while candles of deep
golden color with the first basket, or
in t hristmas reds, or a warm deep
brown with the second basket com- I
pletes a most attractive Christmas
table.
NOVEL AND SMART
Strikingly original in design and
patterned after the newest and smart
est tashion, are the Jiew dinner ser-1
vice plates just offered bv the H C '
Claster Jewelry Shop, 302 Market
street. The colorings are in the love
liest old blue and rose tints and the
designs suggest some of the treasured
plates seen in Dresden museums. Be
sides these, this shop offers a splen
did assortment of dinner sets In sim
ple designs, as well as the most elab
orate patterns, in a wide range of
prices. Indeed I was surprised at the
moderate prices asked for everything
in this beautiful store, but I find that
is the policy of this new Claster
Store, to have beautiful and dis-.
tmctive offerings at popular prices.
A GRAHA\TEED GIFT
A gift that will bring pleasure and
convenience every day in the year is
offered at the Electric Supply Co., 2 4
S. Second street, in the wonderful
electric irons, priced from $3.50 up
which are not only shown in a big as- :
sortment, in till convenient sizes, but
are especially noteworthy for the fact
that this shop guarantees them for- 1
ever. A guarantee has come to mean
little or nothing nowadays for so of
ten it is given for a short period which
is practically no guarantee at all. and i
the superior value of the irons offered i
i nwwiwniimiumi
Donatello Ferneries and Bowls
I; Fern dishes and bowls artistically filled with the 11
|| newest ferns.
An excellent gift at Christmas time—one that
11 lasts and reflects the thought that prompted it.

MUSIC FOR CHRISTMAS
j Nothing enters into the hearts of
! people so much as music and brings
I more real Christmas joy to the home.
(That is one reason I believe, why tho
J. H. Troup Music House. 16 S. Mar
■ ket Square, is so busy just now with
the Christmas rush for pianos, player
j pianos, Vtctrolas, Edison and Colum
' bia phonographs, and records for
; gifts, but 1 think the reason they are
larger and better equipped, but be
- cause people get so much better ser
; vice, larger assortments and better
i values at this big progressive musical
house.
"XMAS"
Lately I was amused, yet grieved,
at seeing Christmas spelled "Xmas"
ifiid I am hoping that the time will
soon come when mercenary thoughts
, will not enter into Christmas giving,
j Nothing is more expressive of a
• friendly Christmas spirit, free from
! the thought of cost, than the gifts
|of a book. At Cotterel's, 9 X. Market
Square, a wonderful collection of
j books for Christmas giving has been
gathered together and whether one
wjants new fiction, tales of travel, stir
i ring stories of adventure, gift books
| in lovely bindings or just a wee bit
j of Christmas message in the form of
a favorite poem or a few words of
good cheer, it will be found in this
interesting assortment.
CHARM IX THE PROSAIC
One would never believe without
seeing them, that prosaic cleaning
materials could attain the gift-like at
traction of the clever novelties shown
at the Woman's Exchange. Third
street at Herr, which are just the
thing to fill the vacant places on vour
Christmas list. There is a bar of
French chalk boxed most conveniently
with a little stiff brush and an ap
propriate card to suggest its-uses and
:to express a Christmas wish. This
sells for 30c. there are the
fascinating Gum Brothers. not
handsome beaus as you might fancy,
but very useful blocks of art gum.
cleverly boxed to sell for 35c and
these gifts are so attractively arrang
ed that they suggest all the good-will
of Christmas time.
GIFTS FOR MEN'
So many men who are given foolish
presents are apt to feel that Christ
mas giving is a farce, and there is a
strong tendency this year toward the
most practical giving. I think a suit
or overcoat is a most sensible gift for
a man, and X believe a great many
men have been given either the
nu>ney or an order for such a gift for
I have seen so many men being fitted
at the Doutrich Store for Men, 304
Market street. Morning, afternoon
and evening, that store is crowded
with eager buyers, and they always
go out wearing such a pleased and
happy expression, that I am sure they
must be more than satisfied with their
Christmas gifts.
A XEW TAX BOOT
One of the cleverest of the new
models in tan footwear has just been
received at the Walk-Over Boot Shop
226 Market street and it is so dis
tinctly smart that its vogue is as
sured. This model has vamp and fox
ing of tan calfskin with a French heel I
and pointed toe on which are a few
perforations in a very neat little round
design which is entirely new while
the uppers are of a beautiful shade
ot champagne kid which combines
most artistically with the deeper shade
and makes a most effective boot
which is appropriate for either in
formal or semi-formal wear.

Players' Performance Writ
ten by a Critic
Tom Robertson^author of the rnili
; tary comedy, "Ours," which the Yale
Dramatic Association will present at
the Orpheum Theater, December 29,
realized that a play which is above
I the heads of the crowd loses much of
! its appeal. He wrote with a touch
| which makes his humor just obvious
1 enough to be genuinely amusing, and
! never boring. The lover of Wilde and
i Shaw might accuse Hobertson of being
; somewhat of a clown, but then, you
! know, one really does get pretty tired
:of Shaw and Wilde after two solid
I hours of them.
Kobertson's humor, however, is not
' of the dish-breaking, Keystone style.
! There is bright and snappy dialogue
ifor those who like that sort of thing,
f but there is not an overdose of it,
I Hugh Chaleot, the tired gentleman of
j leisure, now and then makes a re-
I mark that is pure wit.
i Sergeant Jones, who has Malapro
| pian tendencies, makes an excellent
j comedian for those who like humor
lof a broader variety. He has great
1 trouble with hitf twins, wl.o come
down with a severe attack of the
| "twinsy." E. M. Woolley, the Yale
coach, is making the whole produc
tion a mild burlesque of mid-Victorian
, foibles. The costuming and scenery
will be a bit exaggerated to further
■ this impression.
j The whirlwind ending of the play
is speeded up still more by the intro
: duction of a dash of mechanical horse
i play. Two perfectly harmless Eng
lish ladies attempt to cook their own
dinners over an open fire in a hut in
the Crimea when the thermometer is
; at zero.

X THE PULLMAN COMPANY
Anticipation tt7 P t
service, or equipment, which may
add to the passengers' comfort, convenience or safety, is
a responsibility which the Pullman Company for fifty
years, has consistently fulfilled.
In order that no improvement might be neglected,
every practical suggestion is actually incorporated in a
car under construction in our shops, and once a month
these suggested improvements are personally inspected
by tne Committee on Standards composed of higher
officials of the Company.
The development of the sleeping car, the parlor car
and the enclosed vestibule are characteristic steps in the
constant advance made by the Pullman company in the
perfection of its equipment. To this end every new in
vention practical for Pullman car construction is carefully
considered, and, if contributing to safety or convenience
is adapted to car requirements.
Many of these improvement are of a highly technical
nature and contribute chiefly to safety. Others result
primarily in added comfort, or convenience to passengers.
All serve to anticipate the passengers' requirements and
meet the most exacting demands of the traveling public.
