The air is already strongly inspreg.
mated with Christmas favor. The
streets Of the city in the principal business
blocks have much the appearance Of spen-
did art galleries, for in all the show win
dows, big and little, are arranged in an at
tractive manner articles OF every descrip-
ton Of great value, beauty and usefulness
either, or all qualities combined. Certain.
ly, people who cannot find in all this great,
varied and magnificent array something
that would suit them for presents to friends
or relatives Of any age or condition, are
indeed hard to please. Before seeking
foreign markets therefore for something to
give to their friends on Christmas day, peo-
pie should look over the splendid displays
made by the enterprsiug business men
here at home.
