WHAT TO BUY AND WHERE TO BUY. ‘Thus farwverything has been favorable to what may be called a brilliant holiday season. In place of the sleet and snow of last year there have been clean streets, and a crisp atmosphere and sun- shine, thus enabling visitors and residents alike to ‘throng the promenades and the attractive stores and shops. The display of holiday goods this year has been quite unparalled and promises even mere attractions as the openings continue. One of the Perplextties of the season of making presents—if it Teally has perplexities—is to know just what to buy and where to buy it. The advertising columns of THe Stax have always covered the ground, but more fully now than ever. A glance over them will save you both time and money. It ts well said, and truthfully said, that the at- tractions at Gunnip, Day & Co.'s three stores, at £20, 822 and 824 7th street northwest, ure very nota- bie. They have the very latest novelties In silk: , nonpareil velveteen, Foster's gloves, and other specialties. Then they have a large and well Selected stock of fancy dry is, aS well as staple articles in every line conceivable and at prices that attract crowds of people to their spacious establishment. In fact in some lines of goods they defy competition and name prices that must command sales. Give them a call and see if this is not true in all {ts detatis, ‘The long-established and well-known firm of James Y. Davis’ Sons, at 621 Pennsylvania avenue, marble building, make an excellent exhibit of fur- lined circulars, fancy furs, caps, carriage robes, hats, canes and umbrellas, regalfa, fur trimming, and in fact everything In their line, with prices to suit quality and quantity. What handsomer resent is there than a iur-lined circular for a ady—or, for that matter, a seal sacque, or fur- trimming for a sacque? You will be pleased with a visit there. Dammann’s opening of holiday goods, at 806 7th street, Was an tinmense affair. One must read his elaborate advertisement to get any kind of an ide: of whag he has to sell in the way of laces, toilet articles, children’s goods, dolls, _gentiemen’s , Russia and Japanese articles, jewelry, etc. t, as the old fashioned advertisement used to say, goods “are too numerous to mention.” One must pay a visit and see for themselves. Musical Christinas pres>nts have a delightful sound, and, judying from last year’s sales, none are more eagerly purchased. W. G Metzerott & Co., at their old stind, on Pennsylvania avenue, between 9th and 10th streets, have planos, ans and organettes,and in fuct,musical tustruments of all kinds, with music bound and in sheets, all suit- able for presents.

Chapman, 911 Pennsylvania avenue, has a fine array of novelties from Vienna, Paris and London, in plush, tvory and bronze, and offers @ discount ‘of ten per cent on all sales of fancy foods till December 17.

Sick Headache is one of those terrible chronic diseases that has been overlooked by the medical faculty, because few peopleever die directiy from it, but may suffer the agonies of death tenfold. Sick Headache is not depend- ent on a dyspeptic stomach, as is generally supposed to be the case, but upon an irritable state of the nervous system. The headache begins hours before the stomach becomes sick, and the cause of the stomach getting sick at all is from nervous sympathy transmitted from the brain to the stomach. ‘The real and firet cause of these headaches lies still further back, and is to be found in a poor and impover- ished condition of the nerve fluid, and while in this con- dition there are many local or exciting causes for these headaches, such as faticue, overwork, bright light, hot sun, going without the usual meal, stimulants, and va- rious other things may bring on an attack, but all be- cause the nervous system is run down. Now for the cure. It is DR. BENSON'S CELERY AND CHAMO- MILE PILLS, which are prepared expressly to and wil cure all nervous diseases. Sold by all druggists. Price, 50 cents abox.
