A PALACE OF JEWELS.



at S~teIer's.
"a thing Of beauty is a joy forever"
and P. Steler has an immense lot of joys
at his establishment. A person looking
over the many beautiful things in his store
becomes bewildered at the numberless
sparkling gems, their workmanship, beau
ty, richness and appropriateness for
holiday presents to children, friends,
in general. Jewelry has an enduring
value, and, however old the gift Of a
charm, ring, watch or a bracelet may be-
come, the present grows in value as the
years come and go and reflect the
kind heart of the generous giver. There is
scarcely a gem or article Of goods in Mr..
Steler's magnificent collection of jewels
but what is appropriate for a Christmas
present. In diamonds he has a royal
assortment, ranging from the tiny S75
stone to the gorgeous $1,000 solitaire,
consisting of rings, earrings, brooches
and scarfpins, ali OF the brightest luster.
Several sets Of earrings and brooches are
of matchless splendor. The ST. 900 dia-
mond is a stone of great b%rilliancy,
pure white and almost transparent in
its brightness. There are also some dia-
monds settings in amythist rings, to repre-
sent the symbolisms of secret orders, which
are very fine. In rings there is a splendid
variety, carrying precious stones OF every
description. A lot set with quartz are par
ticularly attractive. The bracelet and
bangle department contains many new and
pretty designs, enough to suit the most
capricious taste. What is considered quite
q n0vp1fu 10 a handsome npfnnt Snr1np
banglet, surmounted by a bird. There is
an endless variety of necklaces, lockets,
earrings and brooches, some of which are
Of rare beauty and workmanship. In the
line of scarf pins there is an assortment
to suit the most eccentric taste OF gentle
men, from the plain gold to the shield
studded with diamonds. One Of these is
of unique design and represents a donkey
looking over a gate, the boards Of which
contain the letters gu & I r g." This
would be an appropriate pin for an esthete.
OF ladies and gentlemen's gold watches
there is a good supply of the best American
and European make, and the watch charms
are Of many styles, including lockets, and
some inlaid with quartz and cabinet spec
linens that are new. Passing from one
show case to another the visitor finally
halts before one containing solid silver,
with full sets of knives, forks, spoons, card
receivers, mugs, sugar tongs, tobacco
boxes, etc. A large show case on the wall
opposite is filled with an extensive assort-
ment of plated silverware. In this line
there are also some very pretty toilet sets,
napkin rings, mugs and vases. And COM
ing to the larger articles, there is a new
feature in clocks Of American make. one
of which is the musical alarm, that grinds
out "My Grandfather's Clock" at the
hour for striking, and another is what is
termed the Diana swing, which keeps up
perpetual motion. Several other makes
present striking features of interest, and
would be not only ornamental but inter-
esting in any household. But it is impos-
sible to do full justice to such a stock of
goods as Mr.. Steler's in a hasty article.
Our readers must make up their minds to
visit the store themselves and see what
is there.
