dispenser OF fuel that go to make ''Christ-
mas fires." Those who are sbivering now,
or may he candidates for that Arctic feel-
ing by reason OF having neglected to lay In
sufficient supplies, will take notice OF the
suggestions submitted, and govern them
selves accordingly. Neither Christina,
or any other winter period can be Dridged
over with comfort without an am.
pie supply OF the all.important re-
auisite Of fuel. and this latter In
cludes, as well as coal. oak and pine
wood. Heie we have two Lathrops-the
old and the youug-beyond price; we read
them by the reflected light OF their own
warming productions. The grateful ra-
dating caloric Of their fuel insensiDly
tbaws the Arctic rigidity OF the ice king,
and all under its influence are more than
willing TO rise up and call Lathrop blessed
among the purveyors OF fuel. Examine
Latbrop a. Co.'s anthracite, pure Kanawha
and camel Goals, together with their sawed
wood, and contemplate how much OF COM
fort and conicntment is involved therein.
