LOCAL MATTERS.
THE HOLIDAY SEASON.

OF late years it has become more the Gus
tom to make purchases of holiday goods
before the rush commences, and everybody
Is doing the same thing. This is wise, rs
the buyer has wider field for the exercise
OF taste, and is much more likely to secure
bargains from the tradesmen. In order to
accommodate this class, sbrewd dealers in
Christmas and New Years presents pre-
pare their shelves and make their announce
ments somewhat in advance of the regular
holiday season. Advertisements of this
kind are already appearing liz our columns,
with profitable results, and others will
doubtless follow to catch the early trade.
We propose this year to give notices of
Holiday Goods a conspicuous classification,
and to cali attention to them In this column
to the extent they may merit. Dealers
should therefore send in their favors as
soon as possible.
