“Mg née Gift that Every Tennis Player Wants All over the world Dayton Steel Racquets will be given as Christmas gifts this year. It’s the racquet that has proved itself wherever tennis is played, e racquet that is harder- hitting, better balanced, more accurate—the racquet with the steel frame that can’t warp and the steel strings that are always tight—the racquet that is un- aftected by heat, cold, drought or dampness, that never requires a press. That’s why it’s the only rac- quet you can give with the surety that it will be in as per- fect condition next spring as it is on Christmas day. It’s the one gift that every tennis player would rather get than anything else—it solves the gift problem. The best sporting goods store in your town has a Dayton Steel Racquet ready for you. It's packed in an attractive holly-covered gift box. And its price is only ten dollars. Triolets. Tristes (Beatrice Announcing.) 1 WANTED a beaver jacquette, And he gave me a rug for his den! I hinted—how could he forget ?— That I needed a beaver jacquette. One can’t be ungrateful, and yet— The awful obtuseness of men! I wanted a beaver jacquette, And he gave me a.rug for his den! (Benedict Standing By.) I wanted a set of Mark Twain, And she gave me a Chippendale chair! Imagine a gift more inane, When I wanted a set of Mark Twain! OF course I don’t mean to complain. But why can’t a woman play fair? I wanted a set of Mark Twain, And she gave me a Chippendale chair C.R. S. Aunt Susan: The Judge's baby is following right in his father’s footsteps.

Cable Address, Princess Bermuda A Few Suggestions to Christmas Shoppers Do your Christmas shopping late so as to avoid the early rush. On the other hand, do not wait until Christmas is over. Try to decide what you want before you buy it. Not afterward. Do not send the present that you received from some one last year to that same some one this year. Do not enclose the bill present you send. Refrain, if possible, from such presents as poisonous snarling dogs, wildcats, sharks or wharf rats. Al buy appropriate _ presents. Thus, do not send a carving set to a vegetarian or a volume of love lyrics to a misogynist. Leave the price marks only on those articles for which you have paid too much, Try to avoid sending the wrong present to the right person. Remember that, as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has so often told us, it is the spirit that counts. with the sending snakes, scorpions, Combed, Glossy Millions Use It — Few Cents Buys Jar at Drugstore HAIR GROOM seas ait Orn KeepsHair Combed Even stubborn, unruly or shampooed hair stays combed all day, in any style you like. “Hair-Groom” is a dignified combing cream which gives that natural gloss and well-groomed effect to your hair—that final touch to good dress both in business and on social occasions. “Hair-Groom” is greaseless; also help grow thick, heavy, lustrous hai ware of greasy, harmful ee comicbooks.com
