CHRISTMAS IS CoMINC.-h few more
weeks and Christmas will be here. What
emotion does the announcement that
"Christmas is coming" cause in tic breasts
of the little ones! They look forward to it
with Impotence, and long before the fes
tive occasion arrives, they dream of many
good things it invariably brings with it
In this city as elsewhere, the approach of
Christmas is sigralizcd by an increased
activity in business, especially in those
branches which contribute to its pleasures
and festivities. Our stores will soon be
CARRIED in their holiday attire, and thous-
ands OF articles intended for presents and
to make home h,ppy and bright, will
grace the bow windows and show cases.
OF course everybody will want to know
where they can get the prcttest and cheap
est, of such We say examine closely from
now until Christmas the advertising col
umns of the Clarion, and there you will
ascertain where you can procure the incest
presents for the least money.
