Novelties in NeckWear

Are among the timely things of the
new year. Never in the history of neck
wear has there been so many varieties
made of the very choicest silks. Pat
tern designs are characteristics of these
new makes. String Ties, Puffs, Scarfs,
Four-in- Hands, English Squares and
many other of the latest patterns are
to be found in our scock. A fine article
of neckwear has become a necessity for
him who would be we'll dressed. No
part of his dress is more conspicuous,
and when the best can be bought for
what inferior goods cost, no one should
pass by the bargains we are now Of

The New Year Begets New Things

For the boys. Have you ever stopped
to think what difference there is in
the makes of boys clothing? Many
suits are bought because the price is
low. 1t is often the price that governs
the purchaser, and not the quality or
the substantial makes. This theory
seems to be based on the idea that any
kind of suit is good enough for boy,
as he will soon wear it out. That is
not good economy, for if you would pay
a little more, and consider quality and
make, you would have a suit for the
boy that would always look well ard
outwear two suits of the inferior grades
To buy the best is money in pocket; to
buy the poorest is money wasted. We
make a speciality to keep the best at
IODular prices

CARE OF THE BABY.

Here are 4 few Of the reasons why
healthy babes do not flourish as they
should:
Irregular Feeding.-Feed the child at
stated times-not whenever it cries. The
cry may mean that it has had too much
already.
Unwashed Bottles.-Baby's bottle should
be we'll washed, including the nipple, aft
er each meal. A bottle that cannot cas-
lily be washed and with long tubes should
be avoided.
Starchy Food.-No infant can digest
starch and therefore should not be given
bread crumbs, corn -four or other starchy
substances.
=. insufficient Food.-A hand fed baby re-
quires it's food to be gradually increased
in strength and quantity as the weeks 60,
by.
Tight Clothing.-A baby's clothes should
be warm, yet light; the band firmly but
never tightly fastened.
Want of Cleanliness.-Infants require
to be washed in warm water every day
and often do not thrive because the bath
