! Christmas shopping made
easy.
Out-of-town people, have
you any idea how comfortable
it is to shop at Wanamakers?
You leave your parcels and
wraps at the parcel-room, near
the door market and City
Hall Square), and then begin
your looking just as comfort
ably as if we brought each
counter into your own home.
When you make your first
buy, ask for a transfer-slip,
have each purchase marked
on it, and when you have fin
ished buying, go to the trans
fer-desk, give shipping direc-
tons, and pay for all at once.
In the meantime, take lunch
in the basement or in the tea
room third floor Chestnut
street-by the way the earlier
the comfortabler) and, if you
get tired, rest in the waiting
room on the first floor or the
basement, whichever is near
est.
As for amusement, there's
plenty of it with the cat
show, the bird-show, the pic
lures, the toys, the furnished
rooms, the different stores full
of pretty things-books, fancy
articles, jewelry, and all sorts
of small stuff in the middle of
the store, the bric-a-brac on
the second floor, and so on.
Everypart ofthestoret thinks
it is a Christmas place just
now, and, if you think so too
why SO it is. There are
some good culinary souls
who'd rather have a new kind
of baking-tin for Christmas
than anything else-and why
not?
Ask anybody, who has his
hat off, where anything is.
There is nothing SO good
natured as a crowd, and we
catch its good-nature easily.
1t is our business to be good
natured, anyway-who has any
business to be anything else
when he's thinking of Christ
mas?
Perfumes

can't be any daintier Christ

fumes. We have the boxes
in various pretty gift styles
containing generous sized bot

FOR COLLEGE.

Two Hundred and Ten Applicants Talk
 ing Them in New York for Harvard
 and Yale.
 New York, June 29.-The entrance ex- aminations for Yale and Harvard which are being held in the Young Men S Christian association building on Twen- ty-third street, simultaneously with ex- aminations for the latter college in thir- ty-seven different cities in the United States and at Bonn, Germany, show q total of 2lO applicants, ol which \ ale claims SS for her academic department and A for her scientific, and Harvard GA for her academic and IA for her sci- entific departments, thus falling 54 be- hind Yale in the number of candidates in this city alone.
 The Yale examinations began to-day and will end Saturday noon. The liar yard examinations began on Tuesday and continue until Saturday evening. The difference in time is accounted for by the fact that all the subjects offered by Yale are compulsory except those in botany, physics and chemistry in the Sheffield Scientific school. The liar ward subjects, on the contrary, are largely elective.
