Past Performances.
The Palais Royal sale of
brushes is making a record
that eclipses even the sale of
last October. when more than
2.G0O brushes and mirrors
were sold in about three
hours.
The mana gers believe that
the success of the present sale
is due to the genuineness of
the bargains offered on sim
liar occasions. 1t was sup
posed that the sale held before
Christmas would outdistance
all rival opportunities of the
kind, but the fact stands that
the present sale Is more over
whelmingly successful than
any other special brush sale
in the history of the store.
None but the best brushes.
with short, medium and long
bristles, it is explained. are on
sale. All are guaranteed. Not
one brush. it is claimed, has
defective bristles, and each is
hogs bristle and not a fiber
makeshift.
Hand and tooth brushes at
the present sale are simply a
matter of a few pennies. The
hand glasses are best French
plate glass mirrors with bev-
eled edges, with frame and
handle of rosewood, o.ivewood
and ebony.

Cold Snap Injuries Fruit Buds.

Fruit growers of the Maryland-Dela-
ware Peninsula are of the opinion that
there will be few peaches grown in that
section this year on account of the heavy
frosts Of the FIRST three mornings of last
week. What buds that were not killed
outright were SO badly chilled that the
fruit will fall off before maturing.
Cherries and pears were damaged and
there will not be fifth of a crop. Ap-
pies and strawberries were injured but
little. Early vegetables were damaged
and most of the crops will have to be re-
planted. Wheat is the most promising it
HAS been for years.
