UA Store. The display of holiday goods in this city was never larger than it is this year, and another feature is that finer presents are within the reach of all than ever before. That is, prices are lower and most any can afi'ord to buy a present which a few years ago was entirely out of his reach. The truth of this city statement was made apparent to a News man as he took a look through C. Hanna it store the other day.

The large storeroom is literally packed with goods ot rare beauty that are very appropriate for holiday presents. The stock of ladies' and gold watches can only be described by the wonl Some of the most unitjue designs are shown by Hanna it Son. and of cour.se. that they are reliable goods, without the for where is there a more reliable house and where is theie one in which the people more confidence? A few years ago only the wealthy could afibrd to gold watches, but this is no longer true, and it only needs a visit to Hanna it Son's to demonstrate the truth of the statement.

It should certainly suffice to say that Hanna iV: Son have outdone themselves, and that this year they are otlering prettier patterns than ever before. Their stock from which to select is larger and tlu'ir prices lower. To sum it up it may be said, and truthfully too, that few if any jewelry houses iii Western Pennsylvania carry so complete a stock of watches, jewelry, diamonds, silver, and silver ware as d(ies Hanna it Son's. The prettiest designs in silver tea and cotl'ee baskets, knives and forks, spoons, and other use- fid articU'S of that kind tliat the reporter ever saw are to be found in this store. For several weeks new goods been arriving daily for this department and the cases are crowded with the most exijuisite designs.

These are not old goods, but novelties of the very latest manufacture, auil here too a reduction in prices has takt'U place, this, the nuisical was next visited, and here is a department in which Hanna it Son are ally without competitors. For ten consecutive days out' oftlu-ir force of men has been out in the country each day delivering somethinL' sold from this ilepartment.
