Tho approach Of the Holidays.

The custom of giving presents upon
Christmas and New Years days, is to be
much approved. It not only serves to
strengthen the bonds of friendship existing
between parties, but brings into closer asso-
citation those whom we may desire to claim
as dear friends.
Notwithstanding the hard times existing
at present, we believe the custom will not be
abated In the least. Although, the charac-
ter of the present given, will undoubtedly
lechanged. Instead Of anything ornamental,
. (articles that would remain in favor for
awhile and then thrown aside and probably
: forgotten), something useful will be chosen,
something that will create a good effect,
sure to retain memory and awaken remem-
brances. Many persons are at "a loss to
!. know, just exactly what to give, from the
: fact that ornamentation has so long held
: sway. And the trial through which the
country is passing, has awakened many
people to the fact, that needless extrava.
gance should not be indulged.
It 10 for the purpose of assisting people in
their choice of articles suitable for presents,
that we are now writing and we wish to i'm
press upon their minds, that they must
Danish all thought of that which is orna
mental, and study to select some article
but something that is useful, and can be
appreciated.
Some of the most desirable goods for
presents, that we have ever seen are to be
found at Jamas A. Sanders, 218 Market st.
Mr.. Sanders has received an immense
stock of holiday goods, embracing handker-
chiefs for ladies, gentlemen, misses and
children, done up in fancy boxes, ranging
in price from Is cents per box to 81. Also
napkins and doylies in beautiful boxes at
Just the same price the purchaser would
have to pay for the napkins alone. Silk
handkerchief for the meek and pocket.
Mu&ers, kid gloves, in one button, two
buttons, and gauntlets, cuffs and collars in
setts, from 25 cents per sett to $3.50. Um-
brellas in fine alpaca, or the best quality
of scotch gingham will make nice present,
and one that will be serviceable.
In addition to his large stock of holiday
goods, Mr.. Sanders constantly keeps on
hand full stock of staple dry goods.
Mr.. Sanders desires to extend cordial
invitation to all to call and examine his
large stock Of holiday goods.
The stock of goods he keeps are at once
useful and desirable, and we would advise
those who are now in doubt, as to what
present to purchase, to call upon him, and
we believe they cannot fail to be suited.
