Christmas is almost here Are you ready 2
Many people still have shopping to do, and as
there is no further time to be lost, Strouse,
the Jeweler, with his extensive and exquisite
line of jewelry, siverware, bric-a- brac,
chinaware, etc, offers you everything the
heart could desire The stock we carry this
year is much larger than that of any former
season. The Christmas trade we are enjoying
is far in advance of the past seasons. 1t is
the outcome OF those popular prices that are
always in vogue at our store. 1t is an &C
cepted fact that the people can get what
they want here-right goods, large assort-
ments to choose from, and less money to pay
we don't say that you can't get jewelry
elsewhere, but we do say, and mean it, and
Will prove it when you come to our store.
that what we carry in stock is the very best
produced, and fashioned by people who
know how to put the touch of style on them.
And we will say further, that not only are
the goods right, but the prices also, because
they are based on the cost of production and
sold for small profit, without any fancy
features in price, as is customary at this
season of the year.
We have offered during this season many
inducements to the ladies, and think we
ought not to forget the gentlemen in return.
10 day and tomorrow we have put on special
sale beautiful assortment of lockets, es-
pecially those studded with diamonds Our
prices, when they are known, will impress
the visitor Immediately with view of select
ing and purchasing one. They are actually
matchless in quality and appearance and
will no doubt enjoy large sale.
Our jewelry and silverware cases have re-
served their best offerings for the last few
days. Our recent advance sales were bnt
skirmsh lines before the greater holiday
buying onslaught. Therefore, as a last re-.
minder to fill your list Of Christmas gifts do

The ladies' bicycle race was postponed
last evening on account OF the rain. The
race will start tonight at the usual hour,
$50 o'clock, and the closing night Will
be next Monday. The race tonight will
be hot one from the start, as Miss CLAW
is determined to capture the 500 offered
her for outriding Misses Dayis, Fiering
and Wellington, and as the other riders
are anxious to hold their own against
Miss Claw. the race is bound to be an ex-
citing one.
The race so far has been the best vet
seen in the northwest, and in spite OF the
heavy wind that has blown across the
track the past few nights, the ladies have
made excellent time, and with good fay
orable weather, the six-night record will
surely be broken.

OLD MESA LIFE.
The Pueblo Woman Was Always the Head
of tho Household.

The Pueblo Woman Was Always the Head
of tho Household.
When the men went down to the
fields, the pueblo was really in control
of its rightful owners, the women. In
these old communities the woman was
the important partner in the household.
She was the owner Of the house and all
it contained. She built il and furnished
it with its utensils of daily use. The
children. traced descent through the
mother and took her clan name. The
mans position, other than mere pro-
wider, was that of an honored guest,
and if he presumed disagreeably on his
position more likely than not he was
sent back to his own home. Far from
being the general slave and pack animal
that is her sister of tho plains tribes,
the Pueblo woman's duties were purely
domestic, and if she ever worked in the
field it was for the common good, to
save the scanty harvest i'll time OF need.
The grinding of the many colored
corn for bread, the weaving and the
making of pottery were her principal
occupations, and are to this day. The
Pueblo Indians are par excellence the
potters of the southwest, and it will be
confessed that they come fairly by the
| title, as an examination of some OF the
old time ware will prove, although in
| this case, as in some others, the evolu-
| ton has not been for the better.
In the small house cell or in the white
| sunlight the potter sat, and, with
scarcely any tools at all, fashioned such
specimens of the potter's art as to chal'
lenge admiration from us with all oul
appliances. The use of the potter wheel
was unknown, and the throwing" OF
