Hdndke rChiefS

In order to better handle the inn mense stock of handkerchiefs for Christmas buyers we have erected a large booth in the center of the store which from now until Christ mas will be used solely for the dis play of these ever popular gifts.
 No matter what kind of handker- chief you want its here, remember that.
 Beginning at SC each the prices range gradually upward through the German, Swiss, Irish and French goods until you come to the real lace handkerchiefs which are in reality. fit for a, queen.
 Prominent among these new handkerchiefs are the hand -embroi- dered goods from Paris and Berlin which are our own importation, therefore much lower in price than is usual with this class of goods.
 We make a speciality of handker- chiefs by the box for either ladies or gentlemen and will request you to be sure and visit this handker- chief booth before you purchase. It's the best collection of handkerchiefs we have ever owned and we are all ready for your coming.

The Largest Stone Arch Bridge.

In spite of mammoth steel arch,
girder, and cantilever bridges, the
stone arch bridge is still employed
under certain conditions, and the
largest structure of this kind In the
world is now in course of erection at
PIaUen, Saxony. This bridge will
have a span of 295 feet. exceeding by
twenty feet the famous Luxembourg
bridge opened last year. and by still
more the NOrebegno bridge in LON
hardy and the Cabin John bridge near
Washington, D. c., which have held
in turn the record as the longest
stOne-aTch bridges. The Plaeum bridge
differs from the Luxembourg bridge in
being of masonry throughout, instead
of consisting of two parallel arches
connected by iron and concrete. Its
cost is estimated at about $4,000, a
sum made possible by the low cost of
labor in SaXony and the abundant
supplies of suitable stone in the vi
cinity. 1t is an arch crossing a val
ley, and a good example OF modern
stonework.

Proper Colors for q. =.
- the edHead.d Girl.

Ii has been asserted that the red-haired
girl who understands the art of dressing
may wear almost anything, and this
statement may he true; but with some
color> the skill of an artist is required in
order that a happy result may be
achieved.
The brOwn-eyed. red-haired girl usual
ly possesses clear, pale complexion,
She should wear any of the many shades
of golden brown shading into soft
creamy tints, with even little yellow
or bright orange cleverly introduced to
vary the monotony. Deep maroon, terra
Gotta, sky-blue and ecru may all be used
with excellent results while, of course,
black is always considered advisable.
The bme-eyed maiden with auburn
locks and Il high coloring has a more diff
hcult task before her. Blues and browns
are most unbecoming, and anything very
decided i apt TO make such violent
contrast that the effect is far from pleas
ing. She must learn, therefore that soft
tintS, such rs mauve. fawn, and delicate
grayS, will always be the col0rings that
will best suit her particular style.
Perhaps the most difficult task of all in
choosing her cOlors appertainS to the dam
sci with sandy hair. She may wear any
shade of blue, black, and white. deep
plum, and cream color, but she must shun
the ycllowS and brown. while green.
whether of delicate or strong tint, must
also lie banished from the list of posi-
bilitieS.
Last of all comes the girl with auburn
locks. Her dark yet glowing hair, pale
olive complexion and deep brown or black
eyes are enough to give her strong ci&iMs
- the title of beauty, but her choice OF
suitable color combinations is also most
important. COlors of one tone are tho
best for her, and she may revel in the
deep crimsons, dark. rich browns, ivory
white, Off she must wear it-black
If, however, she chooses this somber
hue She must also use bit of white

a contrast and TO Danish the dismal APP
