TARIFF ON DIAMODNS
Excellent Preparations for Christmas
Holidays.
LEYs, BUTTE'S JEWELER
Has Not Raised His Prices on
Goods, Notwithstanding the
Fact That Duties Have
Advanced.

The sagacity which has always char
acterized the management of the great
business interests of Legs, the Jeweier'
has invariably come conspicuously In
to the foreground whenever CONNER
cial crisis or other momentous period
has called for the exercise OF prompt
and sound judgment, and nothing pet-
ter serves to illustrate this than the
firms recent announcement in connec-
ton with the changes in tariff. Antici-
mating the advance in diamonds and
precious stones from 10 to rs per cent,
the firm laid in a very large stock OF
gems as well as importing diamonds In
the rough, and having them cut in this
country. 1t will readily be seen what
an advantage this foresight offers TO
the house, for they advertise to keep
prices at the former rates instead OF
adding the extra Is per cent, the df-
ference in the tariff.
A very extensive line of solid silver
both for table and toilet use, as well as
novelties of every description, has just
been received for the holiday trade and
prices have been greatly reduced from
those of last season. Beautiful gifts
can be had from 10c upwards and nc
excuse of lack of cash to buy Xmas
gifts need be made by people who visi
this we'll filled establishment. Colo
goods, from exquisite gold-headet
canes and umbrellas to the most dell
cate pin. are exhibited at prices to sui
everyone. One of the main features o.
the display is a case of solitary dia
mond rings, which they are selling
the ridiculously low price of SIS each
This is the opportunity for you to bu!

price. Legs attends to the payment
