The Approach of the Holiday Season
Brings Many fractions.

Christmas is but few weeks Off and
shoppers are now glancing in the show win
dows of stores to get a glimpse of the latest
novelties in the market with view to de-
Gliding upon what they will purchase as gifts
for their friends.
Morgan's Bazar, No. 20 North Main street
is recommended to the seekers of holiday
displays. There is no place in the town
better stocked, or offering as many genuine
novelties as this one. All the newest games
toys, toy houses, ornaments for Christmas
tree yards, all kinds of papier-mache animals
to help give the trees and yards a realistic
appearance, are displayed in profnsiop
Dolls are the favorites with the little girls
this year, as they have been for generations.
and Morgan's Bazaar is well stocked with
them. You can got dolls dressed in the
latest styles, or without apparel; with kid
bodies, jointed, or plain, and the prices
range from cent up to s., so that the stock
is within the range of all pocketbooks.
The iron toy department of Morgan's
Bazar is well worth an inspection. This wear
iron toys are extraordinarily large and en-
brace wagons, horses, carts surreys, etc, in
innumerable styles and equally numerous
prices, but all lower this year in price than
ever before offered. The sizes have increased
and the prices have run down. This is un-
| usual, but true. feature of the display of
metal goods is a steel locomotive called the
| Dewey" 1t is thirty inches long and a
marvel in mechanical production in the toy
line. Iron fire engines and hook and ladder
trucks are also much larger than heretofore.
and correspondingly improved in finish and
detail They are nearly twice the size of
former years, and yet toys in this line that
sold readily at 81 last year are now offered at
90 cents. The toys have by no means deterio-
rated in quality. They are being manufac-
tured at less cost than in former years. The
same thing applies to the line of winding
engines and all kinds of steam engines
shown at this Bazar. All boys have desire

and IN this line of toys Morgan's Bazar
offers excellent opportunities. The exhibit
tion of complete printing outfits. including
presses, type, ink and cards, suitable for
boys or young men, is also department that
attracts much attention. The prices are mar
velously low.
There has also been big slaughter in the
prices of games. Those that sold quickly at
81 last year are now only so and rs cents
Games that formerly sold at % cents are nov
offered at 10 cents. Morgans Bazar offers
great variety of games at all prices.
There is another department to which the
attention of the holiday shopper is directed
1t is the Opal goods department. Genuine
Opal goods for parlor or bedroom decoration
There are also imitation Opal goods, but they
are on other shelves. There is vast diff
ference between the two. The genuine
Opals have perfect decorations. The flowers
and leaves are as perfect formed as in nature.
There is a difference in the price, of course;
but the genuine Opal goods are not high in
price, by any means-at least not at Morgan's
Bazaar.
The celluloid line of goods is also interest
ing, embracing dressing cases, shaving sets
aud albums in novel and innumerabe de-
signs. They should be seen to be appre-
ciated

silk and linen department of Morgan's Bazaar.

present Battenberg work and point lace
handkerchiefs are the prevailing favorites
