 Many of the Birmingham stores are filled with lots of pretty things that will make beautiful and acceptable Christ mas gifts 10 yourg and old. There are bewitching holiday goods exhibited at every turn, but there is nothing prettier or more bewitching than the calendars which Messrs. Smf.h & Montgomery have one sale. These calendars come from Prangs, from Frederick Stokes. and indeed from artists in every quarter of the globe. Nothing heretofore issued can compare with them. The subjects and the lithographing work are even more meritorious and artistic than the notable collection of Autographs at the Chicago Exposition. These calendars are so exquisite in design and execution that the sheets are wor. hy to be framed and preserved. To lovers of high-class art work, this collection of calendars at Smith & Mon,gomery's is worthy of in- spection and examination.
