n VERY ONE seems to realize,
r. just about Christmas time
that furs are very much on
the horizon. Indeed, there are
few women who can resist their
flattering grace of line. 1t would
be wise to keep an eye open
for Oppenheim, Collins & Company's
advertisements, for you are most
likely to find in them just the scarf
or muff or fur coat you'd like to
have. n you live out of town you
may wish to have descriptions sent
you. One may be sure, in buying
furs at the store of Oppenheim, Col
Inns G. Company, Chestnut and
Twelfth streets, that one is getting
full value for ones money. The ex-
pert workmanship which character
ICES their furs and fur coats means
good wearing quality "a thing
which wise people consider when
buying furs.

NO GIFT ARTICLES ever
~ seem to me quite so gift
like as the bright little
things of painted tinware at the
store of J. Franklin Miller, 1912
Chestnut street. Really, a bit of
this tinware would brighten up the
most sombre of color-schemes. One
of those ten-caddies with a gay
floral design would add a bit of
color to the appointments Of ones
tea-table. The candle sconces and
waste baskets are most attractive
and can be used to very good ad-
vantage with the cottage" type of
furniture. And think how useful are
the painted trays. A wildly colored
parrot decoMted one that | liked
particularly. Then there are book
ends and cake boxes and candle
sticks and ever so many other in
teresting and gift-like articles.

ToN'T you just love delicious,

you are afraid to eat them.
You've heard it said that they
make one "fat"-oh, horrors! And
that they're not the best thing
for the complexion. Well, it all
depends on where you buy them.
Now, at the stores of Edouard

the best and most wholesome ingre-
dients that it is possible to procure.

know that these caramels are but

Always on the lookout for new
and novel orchestrations, or instru-
mental effects of any character with
which to please their admirers. and
in order to break the usual routine
of some well-known overture, the
leaders of the various large orches-
tras of the city are constantly in
friendly rivalry as to which one can
submit for public approval the most
varied and interesting scores.
Along these lines few directors
have been more successful than
Daniel Brecskin, whose Rialto Sym
phony Orchestra is conceded to be
one of the finest organizations of it's
character south of New York. Brees-
kin does not at any time confine
himself TO the usual run of orches-
trail overtures.
Again Mr.. Breeskin and his cam
pany of soloists, do not hesitate to
venture into the realm of novelty,
as for example, his recent arrange
ment of a characteristic overture

offering which rivalcd the photodra =
