EARLY CLOSING SOON.
Time Nearly Here for Shorter Hours
Following Holidays.

The clerks i'm the various local stores
who are at present experiencing the
rush of business incidental to the an
nual holiday season are consoling
themselves for their extra work by
anticipation of the two months period
of early closing after January LIST. No
action has as yet been taken by the
merchants, but the custom of closing
at o'clock during January and Feb
ruary. and part of March up to the
time of preparation for the Easter
trade, has become fixed institution,
and only the fixing of the limit of the
shorter hours period is required. Be
tween Christmas and New Years a
meeting of the merchants of Hancock
and Houghton will probably be called
TO take action regarding the matter.
Ii is likely too that the sentiment OF
the merchants regarding the early
closing in July and August, which was
tried for the first time last year, VIII
be expressed at the meeting and other
matters of general interest to the mer-
chants and their employees considered
