Christmas comes next week. The ful
tide OF the gift-giying season Is upon US
the laugh and chatter OF the gift-buyers |.
heard the thoroughtares are crowded with
gay shoppers upon holiday purchases in
tent; the shop windows are afame with
the brightness OF their holiday raiment;
and the shop-keepers with the,blandest oi
smiles and the glibbest tongues and
alacrity the most cheerful, extend vel.
come and dance willing attendance upon
those who crowd the marts OF trade.
Christmas-merriest, happiest, brightest
and best Of all the holidays-fast ap.
proaches, TO crown the year, and
times, even the yeriest old Scrooge
gives place in his heart to some
pleasant anticipation OF the happy day;
kindly thoughts hold sway, and even
though there be an undertone OF sadness
over hard times, for the hour this refrain
takes secondary place, and hearts and
minds generally are deeply engaged over
the perplexingly fascinating problem OF
what to select for gift among the multi
tudes Of attractions, and where to secure
it TO the best advantage. In such great
public emergency II is eminently fitting
that the journalist should come, to the
front-being always equal to the lhour-
and relieve the distressed by offering sug-
gestions, which will lead them out OF all
perplexity. II our readers, then, will fol-
low the scribe's directions, as hereunto
annexed, they may feel assured they will
secnre the most useful or ornamental gifts,
and that, too. with the least possible drain
upon the exchequer.
sCnuLTz's CANDLES.
To begin with something good to get
something that everybody eats-we have
TO say that Schultz is bit OF saint him
self. His candies are pure, and there is
no danger OF eating too many OF them. 1t
Is treat to look through his sweet place
OF business, for, besides having cart-loads
OF candies he has millions (perhapsl OF
other novelties, which are unlike anything
you find in any other place. II is amaz-
ing! Now don't put off going to Schultz's,
1919 Market street, till the last day, or you
can't get in for the crowd.
AND FEESEY's ALSO.
Christmas without Feeney would be
small affair, indeed. At this large estab-
lishment, No. 1907 Main street, he has the
most tempting CONNECTIONS for the holiday
time, which remind US OF the important
part he has to play in the coming festiyi-
ties. Mr.. Feeney Is O wholesale dealer in
fancy groceries and confectionaries, for
eign and domestic fruits, crackers, pickles
and SAUCES, and everything usually found
in first-class fancy grocery can be obtain
ed OF him.
HAVE you SEEN GESTHER's DISPLAY?
No one who desires to be informed
should reply negatively to the above ques-
ton. Genther has made cornerin toys
for the holidays, and has display in his
establishment, No. 1867 Main street, which
is very wonderful, and worth your car
fare, both ways, to see. There isn't toy
worth having that cannot be found at
Genther's, and cheap at that. Genther
says nobody can undersell ''the boss, " and
we believe him. His store room is liter
ally crammed full OF novelties for the holi-
day trade, which he is almost giving away.
Go early and avoid the rush.
