ToYLAND TALKS.
BY CHARLES 3. DRIscoLL.

Said the Toyland doll to the little
drum,
Il do wish Santa Claus would come!
want to tell the dear, old man
About my little Christmas plan
You see I've sat here on the shelf
And thought it out all by rnIself;
want to go TO some poor kid
Who has no toys nor Sunday lidl''
Why surel" the little drum replied,
AS he rolled over on his side,
You want to go where you wit be
The entire show, and so do we!
But Santa Claus knows all this stuff.
He's old, guess, and wise enough;
He knows that rich kids, too, must
play.
On overhearing all this talk
l very quickly took a walk.
And as I hurried through the door
I found this note upon the floor:
Dear Santa Claus-My dad has
dough,
But that is not my fault, you know;
Please don't forget us poor rich boys,
When you're distributing your toys."

PYLE,s JEWELRY sToRE.

This is a Jewelry Christmas. This
may seem strange, at the first glance,
in view of the very hard times. But,
if one considers for a moment, it is
easily seen why this is so.
While prices have climbed rapidly
during the past few months in most
other lines, with the Jewelry trade
they remain very much the same, for
the reason that the gold standard does
not fiuctuate, as do other commercial
standards, during these days of stress
and strife.
The Pyle Jewelry store is showing
their usual line of Christmas offerings,
which are receiving a quick sale.
Their brooches and lavaliers. rings
and watches, and all the assortment
that is carried at all times. together
with their Christmas novelties. should
be on every woman's list.
