Fine Candies, Bananas, Peanuts,
Taffy and everything in the line of
Sweet Meats at ID. s. Kaufman i Co.'S
store, Main street, Mlllheim, Pa.
Our streets and stores were quite
lively for the last week. Everybody
seemed in search of suitable holi-
day presents, and the counters were
lined with people to select from the
tempting stock of our merchants. 1t
seems that at this season purses open
more freely than at any other time Of
the year and boarded up treasures are
spent for Christmas present for a
s'dear one'' at home. From year to
year the people are learning that it is
better to confer pleasure upon others
than to make gain life's object and
haye gold for ones god. 1t is wonder
| full how little courtesies aud remem
brances Brighten the hearts and homes
and many shadow that rests over al
most every life is chased away by the
effect Of loying gifts. ''It is more
blessed to give than to receive"
