Egyptian bracelets and cOllarettes are now the rage throughout the East. Ifyou haven't something in the Egyptian line you are not in style. A fine assoTt- ment of these goods has just been re- ceived and placed on exhibition, Come and see them and make purchase.
 We were never so well prepared to meet the exactions of the jewelry trade in the North as we are at the present time. Our store has been enlarged and improved until we can say WITHOUT FEAR OF CONTRADICTION that we have by long odds THE FINEST JEWELRY STORE NORTH OF PUGET SOUND. Our stock of iewelry has been increased and improved upon as greatly as has our store.
 We have a scientific opliCian, gradu ated by one of the best schools in the world, and the best assorted stock of optical goods in the country.

NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose From Grief.

The Stricken Rose From Grief.
 What @ fortunate provision Of nature lt Is. that deprives the rose of mental suffering; for how poignant would be its Erlef to discover. in the height of its blooming glory. that @ canker fed at It's heart. and that its beauty and fragrance were doomed forever. Nature always spares the suffering; she is a veritable store-house of pleasing rewards, for those who seek her aid. Tn the years gone by falling hair and grayness have cast a gloom over the lives Of thousands of young women. but thanks to the in yestIEatons of scientists the true cause Of hair destruction Is now known to be a germ or parasite that burrows into the hair follicles. Newbro's HerpIclds absolutely destroys this germ, thus permitting the hair to grow as na- tu-s intended. Sold by leading drug gists.

nothing in return; in fact, the money
thus taken should have gone to buy
