a Scheme OF Genuine Charity for the Ben
eft of our Poor These Christmas Times.
What Sanger Bros are Doing to Help
Them.
They are beauties. Each thing in the
enclosure is the best ofits kind. And what
is more when we come to consider what is
the object to which the proceeds are to be
applied, we take deeper interest than ever
in the matter We are abiding to hand
some case that stands in the Elm street
front of the store of Sanger Bros, and to
its contents. 1t contains one OF. the richest
dressing gowns or smoking jackets any
where to be seen in the state; also beauti-
fully embroidered, rich piano cover also
two twin dolls, most tastilv
and e1quistely dressed. These things
are to be rallied on the 9th of December.
Christmas Eve The chances are unlimited
in number, and only 80 cents each. The
proceeds are to be given to the poor. Now
here is an opportunity; dear reader, to be-
stow. well-timed charity and secure in re-
turn more than hundred times the
amount invested. Sanger Bros, with char
acteristic generosity and forethought and
consideration, have gone to the expense of
preparing these articles and contributing
them. II is one Of their donations to the
poor and needing ones of Dallas. Surely
when they have been thus liberal, there be
hundreds of rs in this city that can con-
tribute from 80 cents, one dollar and more
in rattle of this kind. The amount
spent for cigars drinks or some other little
luxury during one day, applied in this d.
rection will more than pay for chance.
The chilly winds an biting colds of winter
are upon us; coal and wood, and fuel gener-
ally is scarce and high, and the poor should
be thought Of Those of us whom Heaven
has prOspered with ampler stores should be
thoughtful this Christmas season. But
alas:
Few save the poor feel for the poor;
The rich know not how hard
1t is to be of needful rest
And needful food debarrcd,
They know not of the scanty meal,
With small pale faces rsund
No fire upon the COLI, damp hearth,
When snow is on the ground"
In this enterprise you are not asked to give
something for nothing nor vet to give
something to somebody perhaps not abso-
lutely in want, You invest the paltry sum
of fifty cents, taking the chances of winning
something for yourself. or if you like for a
lady friend, a gentleman friend, or child
for there is piano cover for the first, Il
gown for the second, and little dolls for the
third. If the winner OF the gown find it too
large or too small or otherwise unsuited
for the person it may be intended for, San
ger Bros. viii do yet more, they will dupl-
cate it in value, making size, color
and other things to suit. Every
dollar received from kind-hearted contribu-
tors will be turned over for the purpose
above explained.
The following named ladies' have been
requested to take charge of the drawing,
which will occur ut the store of Sanger
Bros. on the oath inst, viz: Mrs. w. c.
