CENTS each Any one who wants to load n
Xmas tree with pretty gifts can do 50 by send
ing an order to Mr.. Bailey, aud lac will make
such n selection MS will be sure TO please
When we come to think that ten dollars will
purchase a hundred nice toys aud useful arti-
cles, we feel disposed to give our thousand
and one friends a souvineir apiece. A whole
volume Of music for instance can. be had FOR a
few dollars. and there Is hardly anything that
could be asked for in the way Of little gift'
that cannot be procured. In dolls alone. one
could make happy a very large boarding school
full of girls, and in tIn-ware, a package that
contained II sample OF each article would be al
large as a ~hog-shed. We know this ware TO be
good Tor we have bought "a lot OF il and u u
now being used. To sum up the whole matter
one would say that the collection now being dis
posed OF by Mr.. Bailey is especially adapted e
the present season. and is beng appreciated b,
all who have seen IL.
