The civic committee is the one that is acting on Jackson & Wilson's gen- erous offer to give the ladies a per- centageg of all they can se€ll out of the store in a given time. This com- niittee has as its object cleaning, Leautifying and improving the city, and no public-spirited citizen will do his—or her—Christmas shopping without stopping in at Jackson & Wilson'’s to buy a few things from the Woman's club. The stock in- cludes gifts that are ornamental, gifts thay are useful, and gifts that are both. At this season of he year, Lakeland husbands are anxiously in- uuiring of themselves and others, **What shall I get her for Christ- n:a8?" this question if the poor men only knew them. Who are better able to auswer the great problem than rep- rescntatives of the Woman’s Club? lime ought to be are the ribbons by which the presents are removed from Lis capaciou Still another variety is the huge! 1ed cornucopia th decorated with gold paper and ! Lerries and is suspended from the chandelier over the table, the ribbons hanging with- | i1 convenieng reach of the guests. IS GORGEOUS SEASON FASHIONABLE FABRICS ARE BEAUTIFUL BUT COSTLY. Woman of Slender Purse Must Make Her Selections Judiclously and Close Her Eyes to Many Desirable Materiale. This promises to be an expensive season in dress. The furs, the vel vets, the satin, all the beautiful mate- rials that rank high on fashion's list are costly things. The woman of few frocks will do well to close her eyes to the lure of the velvets. They are beautiful be- yond description, and becoming and modish, bu: they will not give such service as will other materials, equal- 1y fashionable. For emart tailored costumes wool- rep and epingle are to be had in ex- cellent qualities, and will be found much more practical than velvet, For house wear and evening wear the lovely satins and crepes, and even the sheer gauzy stuffs withstand hard wear better than velvet. But, consid- eration of economy being left out of the discussion, the new velvet must be enthusiastically acclaimed. This material has changed much since the old days. The light, supple, clinging fabric of today has little in common with the stiff velvet of yes- teryear, and though chiffon velvet of the less expensive qualities has a way of looking mussy and shabby, it un- questionably is graceful, while the new velvets of the finest quality are ideal fabrics. One-piece frocks or bodice and skirt frocks of velvet, simply made and Intended for street wear, under topcoats, have been turned out by some of the most famous of the Pari- sian designers and have been copied more or less successfully by New York manufacturers, not only in vel- vet, but in velveteen, which material, by the way, deserves a word of com- There are fifty answers to | mendation, since it is offered in excel- lent quality and charming colorings. One of the most chic of the little French frocks of this class was also one of the simplest.

' JACK HORNER PIES When there are many children In the family a Jack Horner pie is not a bad accessory to the Christmas din- rer. t is a pleasant way of distrib- uting individual souvenirs.
