UNUSUALLY FINE
STOCK OF CLOTHES
IN LOCAL STORES
Newark Firms Attractive Of
ferings Are Causing a Big
Holiday Rush.
BOYS OVERCOATS AND
CAPS A SPECIALITY
Reasonable Prices and High
Grade Material Are Bait
Held Out TO Buyers.

Christmas trade in all the stores was
at its height today. The big clothiers
are doing a rushing business.
A look down Broad street toward
Clothing Row. Is alone enough to fiji
one with the Christmas spirit. The
Marshall & Ball windows are particu-
larry worthy of mention. Aside from
the tempting display of clothing and
hats for men and boys, and shoes and
neckwear for men and women. the
electric decorations are worth a stroll
in that neighborhood to see. The effect
is striking.
But it is on the inside of the Mar
shall & Ball store where the gift-buyer
finds real satisfaction.
The array of givable things in the
mems furnishings department, and in
the women's department., where they
show an unusual line of neckwear,
hosiery and gloves, is enough to open
the purse of anyone.
McGregor & Co, clothiers, at $50
Broad street, can accommodate man or
boy with any kind of clothing in very
neat patterns. A m line of extra
heavy winter clothing is attracting a
large trade.
The company makes q speciality of
ehildren's clothing at very moderate
prices, especially overcoats with caps
to match.
J. Gumpel & Sons, at Market and
Washington streets, is a good place for
men to get good winter clothing at
reasonable prices. The firm is offering
great. inducements in their holiday line
of clothing. which is one of the finest
displays in the city.
