The HOLIDAY TgApE.-The holiday sea-
son draws on apace, and the interest in
the events 1t brings is on the advance:
Our stores are decorated for the trade, and
in all departments OF business the greatest
possible preparations have been made for
holiday sales. The more enterprising ex-
pectto make up during the holidays Tor
the dullness OF the. fall season. We are
glad to notice that the people are disposed
to avail themselves Of the. holiday season
to make deferred and necessary purchases,
in many instances, do duty as Christmas
presents. v The times are1 hard, and yet
the holiday season isIalways one ofbopnt-
full purchases. Hence we may expect our
tradesmen to. have all the business they
want for the next two weeks. And those
bestknown are likely to be best patronized.
