Not at Christmas time assuredly NOT.
To promote that cheer which should character -ize
the season, there MUST be giving of gifts.
But the same old question arises 4 1 What shall
it be?
We make no attempt to answer that question
for you in this ad. But our stock will do it for
you without the least trouble.
Keep this store in mind. To miss our display
is to miss a good deal of the pleasure that be
longs to the season.
There is a constantly growing custom to GIVE
JEWELRY and SILVERWARE. From
parents to children and from children to parents
it's the same, and from friend to friend.
But we have many other lines. Here are just
a few of them: Cut Glass, Hand-painted
China, Fine Hayiland China, Vases, Kodaks
and Cameras, Canes and Umbrellas, Water
man and Parker Fountain Pens, Ebony Goods,
Spectacles and Eyeglasses, Opera Glasses,

Prices as low as they can possibly be.
