WHERE TO BUY YOUR GIFTS

That Christmas is almost at our doors
is attested by displays in every shop
window in the city. At this particular
time everybody who has any money at
all to spend very naturally thinks of
buying some sort OF gift for friends OF
family, and 1t just as naturally follows
that men who have goods to sell of any
description will take unusual pains to
make their display as attractive as pos
sible; and for all that the. stringency in
the money market still continues to
a considerable extent, the demand
tor holiday goods is as active
as in former years. The only difference
seemingly is that buyers desire cheap

| the evening to accommodate those who
