AMBER AND JET BEADS FOR
CHRISTMAS GIVING.

string of the fashionable amber beads,
or the equally fashionable cut jet
beads. These beads are now much
more modish than the imitation white
coral beads so much in vogue last
winter. The larger the amber beads
are the more fashionable is the effect
and the smartest strings are long
enough to fall quite to the waistline.
Jet beads are smaller-about the size
of a pea and a handsome string of
faceted cut jet costs a rather substan-
tial price. There are pressed jet beads
but after a bit such Jet loses its brill
lance while real cut jet retains its
distinction for generations, needing
only an occasional polishing.

BE Thinning ABOUT 1T.

We urge upon the Democratic
voters of the town to be thinking
seriously about the kind of men they
and aldermen for the ensuing two
years. 1t is matter of the utmost
Importance to the town and should
be given very careful consideration.
The type of man needed for mayor
is one whose sole aim will be to keep
! Lancaster abreast of any of the
cities of its size and importance i'm
the state. Therefore he should be
progressive along all lines. He
should not be a "tight-wad," when it
comes to spending money on the
town. He should be prepared at any
time to put sufficient levy of taxes
on property or licenses on occupa-
tiOns, if the needs of the town re-
quire it, He should be one who will
without fear or favor. enforce the
ordinances of the town and should
at al, times have in the service oC
the town a police force in sympathy
with his plans and purposes. He
should not be so busily engaged in
his own affairs that he will not have
time to give close attention to his |
duties.
And the six aldermen to work with |
him, should be men of energy, who |
are fully alive to the needs of the |
town. Lancaster has such men and |
they should be patriotic enough to |
put aside all personal considerations, |
if called to the task and only such |
should be called. We suggest that |
the wide-awake, progressive element |
of the community get together, name |
a ticket composed of men of the type |
above suggested and put it before |
the voters in the primary next Tues !
day week. Should they do this, we
venture the prediction that it will be !
elected with little or no opposition
