CHRISTMAS RIBBON 
All the beautiful ribbons for the making and tying of Christmas Gifts are now assembled at the 
Ribbon Section just at the left of our Washington Street entrance where there is excellent light, plenty 
of sales-people; everything to help the “Christmas Shopper.” 
There are pieces upon pieces of cherry holly ribbons, wide and narrow and medium in various de- 
signs—all the newest—the most generous and beautiful—conceits in fancy work ribbons are here in 
soft pale colors and rich darker shades, waiting to be made up into hangers 
serving cases and sachets and the countless other things into which pretty ribbons can be 
by magic of deft fingers and a needle and thread.

N. Y. HippoDROME 
The New York Hippodrome is 
breaking all records for attendance 
during the holiday period. The cur- 
rent attraction “America” combines 
so many features of drawing power 
that the vast capacity of the huge 
house is being tested at every per- 
formance. The management recently 
made a statement that eighty per 
cent of the attendance consists of 
out-of-town visitors, who, as a matter 
of tradition, make the Hippodrome 
the first stop in their sight-seeing up- 
on going to New York. It is tradi- 
tional to expect a remarkable good 
show at the Hippodrome, but this 
season Arthur Voegtlin has outdone 
himself in this direction. 
“Do you know, Sam, that a man 
does not have to do as much work 
now as he did Io years ago?”

been married nearly eight years, sah!”
