tachments, which are eHshrlned as tn
cherished virtues of religion, predominant
So if Christmas has the buoyancy of youth, /
has the generosity of humanity and charity
If 1t has the indiscrstions of excess, 1t has tn,
piety of friendship and affection; and if 1t haI
the frivolity of festivity, 1t has the truthful

period, and with all It's excess there ar
thousands of men who are better men during

A wIde.awake establishment is that drug

which our readers sometimes may perchance
have noticed mentioned In our advertising
columns. This store has undergone consider
able improvements during the past few
months, and 1t looks as alec and bright now
as a new pin. Without Wishing our readers
any harm, we may ask them 10 visit this
famous drug store, for there are many arti-

weep and a time to laugh, a time to buy and a
time to sell, q time to SOW aud q time to reap;
but ere the time for sowing arrives, BONES the

An all important Ingredient, In fact a sine
qua non in a good old-fashloned Christmas
punch, Is Bourbon whiskey. Now is the time,
therefore, for dealers to call on q. Klatte &

stock of groceries.

of calling at Johnson's, No. Sol King street,
where a good and cheap umbrella can always
be procured.
The man who hath no music In himself, nor
