If you haven't the money to pay for the thifgs you need, just wait until you get the money, and note the sweet satisfaction of being bigger than temptation.” ELBERT HUBBARD TOYLAND AT MACY'S A wonderful Toy Exposition occupies our entire Sixth Floor. 60,000 square feet devoted to Toys. You cannot give the children a greater treat than to bring them to see this wonderful display; and if you ot still young in spirit, you yourself will enjoy it too. Not only are there thousands of new toys, in- genious mechanical toys, and wonderfully beautiful dolls to interest you, but there is plenty of room. Not the least crowding, not the least pushing. Every- thing to be seen in comfort. n this, his 54th year at his headquarters at Macy's, Santa Claus has broken all records. WHERE T0 BUY BOYS’ WEAR Your Advantages at Macy's If there is any particular style of suit or overcoat you have in mind for your boy, or for somebody else's boy that you want to make happy, no doubt you will find it here.

SE mined {et \ Se DANCE FAVORS—NOVELTIES FOR CHRISTMAS FESTIVITIES Not another store in the city can compare with Macy's in the quantity, originality and beauty of paper and other favors. The reason for all three advantages is that we have our own favor shop on the premises, where hundreds of favors are made daily for qur general stock, and where we make other hundreds of favors for special orders, either giving our own ideas or meeting the custom- ers’ own suggestions. We are prepared particularly to make any- thing in crepe paper—from a simple snapping motto to an elaborate masquerade costume. All we ask is that sufficient notice be given us for Christmas favors, that we may be able to be as prompt in filling them as we pride ourselves on being at all seasons ai the year. ~— GARMENTS FOR GIRLS Charming models at lowest-in-the-city prices Our garments. for girls have that same individuality which is so largely responsible for the popularity of Macy's with all womenkind.
