A Jeweler's Trying Experience. In a few days thousands of Christmas gifts will be exchanged. Many of them will be of an unknown quantity. No matter how much confidence the recipient may -have in the donor, unless the article is in a case bearing some reputable jeweler's name there will be doubt as to the quality of the gift. This lingering doubt means a trip to the jeweler with the same old annoying questions, as, Is this go'd? ~ - ' - xl_ o Is this silver'.' is it worm a^unug: How much you reckon it cost? Often' the jeweler has to tell his caller that the article is no good, or that it is of an inferior grade and invariably the j di appointed inquirer replies in the same old words, " Well, I didn't know, as it was not in a jeweler's case. I did not know but what it came from j Shears & Sawbuck or off a ten-cent punch board." If you buy your jewelry from P. C. Jeans & Co. every article, however, small, will be wrapped in a beautiful and attractive box bearing the name of the firm, which is a guarantee of the quality of the gift. advt. Annonnee Engagement.
