Fastening to solution and while the
elder members are asking themselves,
"What shall we give ?" the younger
are no less eagerly specializing as to
what they shall get. The boys drop
vague hints of the desirability of
skates and seds, and books of adven-
ture and exciting narrative; while
the little girls are bem0aning the
dilapidated condition of the present
generation of dolls, and artfully try

none shall he unduly favored and as
the holiday season draws near, the
careful mother feels, more than at any
other time, the need Of some reliable
manual, by referring to Which she
may know just what is to be had, and
just what everything will cost. And
luckily, in this age of journalistic en-
