It in true that the world does not look as bright and smiling as it has on some Christinasea cf the past and as we hope it w ill on many that are to come, but that is no reason why we should draw our faces down with a long scow l and re fuse to see the good and bright things by which we are surrounded. We may not te able to buy as tine presents this year for those we love as we did a year or two ago, but we can show them that we still think of them and are glad to do all in our power to make the season pleasant for them. The merchants of this city appreciate the fact that Christmas conies but once a year and know ing that their customers would expect them to provide themselves with a selection of kooJ things suitable for presents from which a Christmas gift could be selected. They have stocked their shelves well. Their leports (or the season thus far are very encotimging as all report a better trade than they had dared to hope for. BOOKS AHE ALWAYS ACl'KrTAHLE. Ever since the art of printing brought hooks within the reach of the masses they have been used and priied as Christmas gifts, and they are proving none the loss so this year when the art of man has brought the coat down to the minimum w hile in excellence and Ix-atitv thev surpass all former years. The place to find the lest selection of these is at Huntley's, who hasalsoafull assort ment of the latest stationer's novelties. So varied is his assortment that his store has almost the appearance of a novelty bujuar. Don't miss him when selecting your presents. I'SKKl'L I'KESKST ALWAYS AlTEITAIII.E. hew persons in this world are so wealthy that they do not appreciate and prlxe some useful article for a Christmas present. The writer has a present of this description given him several years ago which is in daily use and which almost invariably calls to mind, the thouglitftilness of the donors, when it is used. For an unsurpassed and attrac tive lUt of useful articles suitable for a Christinas present to either child or abult you should go to the general mer chandise store of the well known and re liable firm of Thus. Charman A Son. You wiil know just what you are buying there and will find a selection that will surprise you if you have not already looked it over. THE BJOHT TIME AND PLACE to go for a real nice present is to Bur meister A Andersen's jewlry store where you can find something real i.eat. Yon may want a ring for your wife, a cane for your father, a watch for your brother, a pair of cuff buttons fur your boy or a set of those decorated dishes just as a hint to your best girl that she ought to name an early day. If so you cannot go amiss at this favorite store. Ml'LTlM IN I'ABVO I and lots of other things to numerous to !n'ention - If 'ou do not Mieve il that you have to do is to call at the store of Belloiny A Busch and they w ill sill ily convince you that you have struck the right place. If you don't see what you want you have only to ask for it ami you can d 'pened upon it that they will look it up in some corner that you never thought of. The only trouble there ia that you will see so many things that you want that in spite of their low prices you will not have money enough. - N. It. Be sure and take the children there. BOMK 81'BSTASTIAL ARTICLES. You may not have been in the habit of going to the hardware store to select your gilts in which case you will be sur prised when you come to examine Pope and Co.s' fine stock, to see so many things they curry that are suited to that purpose. Your wife would like a new stove in the place of that old one, your boy would appreciate a new knife, or you can get a set ot knives, a carving set, some sad irons, a fine lamp or well we can't numerate the long list, you will just have to go and look for your self. VOL' ARE NOT SICK NOW. but you will be if you buy your Christ mas presents before you have examined the fancy articles at Huntley's. Most people go or send to the drug store when they are sick but knowing ones go to Huntley's drug store because they can find a nice aseor tment of holiday pres. ents. Say young man, just let me whis per in your ear. Your best girl will think lots more of you if you send her some bottles of that fine perfume at C. G. Huntley's. Try it once and see.
