There are brass and bronze tobacco
lars in curious and artistic designs,
desk pencils, with the long flexible
chain to keep them from being mis-
laid and desk sets of unusual beauty
in the new cordovan brass and cop
per de luxe.
NEW DESIGNS AND FINISHES
Have YOU seen the new Victrolas
shown at the J. II. Troup Music
House, ii S. Market Square in the
beautiful new Driftwood finish? This
is the only store in Harrisburg where
so many different finishes and designs
in talking machines may be seen :
but of course when one realizes that
they can carry over 500 macnlnes IN
stock it is easy to know why they can
offer customers every possible design.
1t is a wonderful satisfaction, too, to
be able to get from so reliable a firm,
an absolutely impartial opinion as to
tho relative merits of the three kinds
of raphs,--Columbia Victor
and Edison,--to help one in deciding
and the record libraries at this store
are the largest in the city.
THE DAINTINESS OF WHITE
IVORY
There is something in the dainti-
ness of white ivory that makes it
particularly charming for gifts, es-
pecially so, for young girls, either at
boarding school or at home. 1t is
quite as stylish as silver for the dress
ing table and much easier to keep
clean, and I saw some beautiful sets
of ivory at the Golden Seal Drug
Store, II S. Markete Square. A most
complete set consisted of broad,
oddly shaped mirror, comb, and
brush. all manicure requisites, a
cream jar, hair receiver and jewel
box arranged in a beautiful case to
make q very lovely Christmas gift
for some fortunate girl. Then there
are smaller sets of comb, brush,
mirror and tray, manicure sets, and
single pieces, which are very reason
ably priced.
BLACK PATENT LEATHER BOOTS
after all is said and done, nothing
quite takes the place of q fine patent
leather SHOE" said q woman whose
trim foot looked very neat and attrac-
tive in n buttoned boot with glove
fitting cloth top. There is a subtle
tendency in the atmosphere of fash
ion to revert to black footwear. and
one of the best proofs of this is the
splendid assortment in black leath-
ers shown at the Walk over Boot
Shop, 226 Market street. They offer
very stylish model in black pat
ent leather with dull kid top. in a
buttoned boot with smart French
heel for just $500, as we'll as many
notifications of this desgn-some
with straight heels, some with cloth
tops,-and it is a comfort to know
that this store still offers q big assert-
ment of correct footwear at S4.0O.
XMAS SHOPPING IN HALF AN
II did all my Xmas shopping i'm
half an hour at the Woman's Ex-
change, Third street at Herr, and Ii
cost me less than ever before" was
the gleeful boast of a clever shopper
who went on to say, For Aunt Jane,
who is famous for her home made
cakes, 1 found a gift package of
broom straws,-clean and sanitary
straWs for testing cakes, - daintily
tied with a ribbon; for grandmother,
the cutest little emery for needles,
so different from anything / had seen
elsewhere; for Cousin John, a leather
case for matches. and for Molly, a
bluebird purse in white kid. For little
Mary Jane, the cutest dolls wash
cloth; for Susan, who is known for
her neatness, l hesitated between a
chamois dust cloth and glove, and a
gift box of French chalk, and finally
took both, for the gifts are very in
| expensive, and each is attractively
boxed with an appropriate gift card
