Where to Buy Combination
Presents.

There are mercantile establishments in this city
whose reputation is established to degree which
renders detailed descriptions of their goods and
means of dealing with the public entirely unnec-
essary Such concern is Jerome Kennedy &
Co., who need but little announcement to receive
the patronage of the public, whose commendation
has already marked their upward career. AT this
time of giving and receiving it is but natural that
this firm should call special attention to few
lines in which special care has been expended for
this season The general stock of mems, youths
and boys clothing needs no description. 1t stands
for itself and the hundreds of walking advertise
ments of it's worth tell their story. For holi-
day gifts however, a stock of mems house co2ts
has been received, which promises to make pleas
ing holiday gifts. In the furnishing department..
mems scarfs, tecks and puffs are displayed in
great novelties. For the boys there ulsters,
overcoats, giant made suits and combination suits,
with sled or pair Of skates thrown in. In the
girls department there are gretchens REFERS and
long garments, with companion ruler skates or
sled thrown in; and all through the entire estab-
lishment the visitor is assured of courteous treat
ment and kindly consideration. Working people
who may be engaged during the day may call any
evening and make their selections. Everywhere
will be found the most complete assortment, the
latest styles and every imaginable size in the gar
ment shown. A gift selected from this stock has
the dual merit of being highly useful well as
ornamental and no encOmium could add to the
high reputation already possessed by the firm and
its goods.

A witty Reply OF Pope's.

Frederick, Prince Of Wales. sometimes
visited Alexander Pope at his villa. On
one occasion when the Prince was on a
visit. Pope after expressing the most
dutifui professions Of attachment, gave
his Royal Highness an opportunity OF
observing very shrewdly that his (the
poet's) love for princes was inconsistent
with his dislike for kings, since princes
NAV irf time become kings. Said his
Royal Highness:
MIR. Pope, hear you don like
princes"
"sir, beg your pardon"
Well, then, you don't like kings"
Sir, must own that like the lion
hest before his claws are grown"
No reply could well have been happier.

BOOMING THE WORLDS FAIR.
Dr.. de Guervllle Had an Audience With the
Ruler Of the Celestials.

Dr.. de Guervflle Had an Audience With the
Ruler Of the CelestiaIs.
Chicago Tmes.I
Dr. de Guerville, who is travelling in the
east with an illustrated lecture on the
Worlds Fair, is now in China His trip in
Japan, during which he gave his lecture at
all principal cities and towns, was very
successful. The Emperor accorded him a
special audience, and his illustrated des-
cription of the Worlds Fair was given on
one occasion as a special entertainment for
the Emperor, Empress and the high digni-
taries of the Japanese court.
Dr.. de Guerville has recently commenced
his tour of China, but at last advices was
suffering from the effects of malarial fever,
from which, however, there was prospect
of his entire recovery.
Before he fell ill DR.. de Guerville had an
interview with the viceroy of China, Lii
Honshong, admiral of the navy and COM
mander of the army, in which the whole
subject matter of Chinese exhibits at the
fair was pretty fully discussed. Li-Hons-
hong in the course of the audience stated
that he could not feel that the attitude of
the United States toward the Chinese Gov
ernment had been friendly, but he listened
with great attention to the propositions Of
DR.. de Guerville, who, as the honorary COM
missioner for the exposition, set forth the
advantages that would undoubtedly accrue
to China if important and interesting ex-
hibits were made from that country.
The interview lasted for two hours, dur
ing which Commissioner de Guerville re-
hearsed at considerable length and in detail
the features, extent and administration of
the Columbian Exposition.
