THE HOLIDAY TRADE.

Many people are getting in the way OF making
their purchases Of holiday goods before the
rush commences, both for convenience and in
order to be able to satisfy taste and Judgment
IN making selections; and in order to accom-
modste this class Of purchasers, some shrewd
dealers in Christmas gifts no. prepare their
shelves and make their announcements some
what in advance OF the regular holiday season.
Advertisers of this class are already presenting
attractive cards in our advertising columns,
and others will doubtless follow their sensible
example, in order to catch this early trade.
We propose to give advertisements of this kind
conspicuous position, and to call due attention
to them otherwise, and therefore dealers will
find it greatly to their advantage to be repre-
sented in this holiday directory.
