The real Christmas spirit is afloat
i'll Duluth.
Go where you wish into the homes
of the humble, the homes of the
graf middle class, roam the, streets
from one end of the city to the other,
and the Christmas spirit will pursue
you.
You can't get away from it. You
don't want to. It's the most cheerful
time of year. 1t is the one time that
We like to wander about the shopping
districts and hand the jingling coins
over to the salesman for something
that we know will bring happiness, in
the remembrance, at least, to one who
is near and dear to us.
Never did the stores present a more:
dazzling array of what to buy to
bring gladness to the hearts Of 9TH
ers. From grandmother down to the
baby who gurgles happily in his
cradle-there is something for all.
Offer Many Suggestions.
Even a peep into the windows of
the stores is enough to provide one
with a copious supply of hints. Ev-
cry retail store has something to Of
fer and every one contributes to the
friends of busy shoppers. And "busy''
is right, for during the last week Du-
ruth has bombarded the stores. The
huge mass of merchandise piled high
on the counters has disappeared like
magic under the fierce onslaught of
purchasing public and both mer-'
chants and customers have been
pleased.
Its hard to know just what to
set.' How often during the past few
weeks have you heard that express
sion? More and more the American
people are buying only the practical
things, and the useless ornaments that
We're once in vogue are fast giving
way to things that are needed and
used every day in the lives of friends.
While this great Christmas spirit is
upon you and you are wandering
forth to select Christmas presents,
keep the Labor World in mind.

It won't do your weekly labor paper
a bit of harm if you should happen
to mention that you were drawn to
the store through a list of bargains
offered the public in an advertise
ment in the Labor World
It will make the merchant feel good
to know that he is using his money
on paper that gets results and draws
trade into his store. It will please us
to be spoken of nicely. So you see 1t
will tickle us all, around and help us
to get more advertising business and
encourage the merchant to increase
his PATRONAGE -
There is more than one way that
the Christmas spirit can be spread
and this is one of them. It doesn't
cost cent either, and but mighty lit
tie effort, for it should be g. pleasure
to speak highly Of your favorite week.

Best Firms Advertise.
The Labor World deals only with
the best firms. Advertisements Of
Tered by those who seem doubtful as
to their honesty or the quality Of the
goods advertised. are refused space
In this paper. Look through the col
umns of the Labor World and you
will find that the best of the local
merchants, those best known, at least,
for their fair dealing, use space lib
orally.
1t all helps, too. The advertising
IS news as we'll as the events chron-
1cled In the regular news columns.
The women want to know the new
styles. They want to know what is
coming in and going out and they
can keep posted by reading the ads
IN the Labor World. They also want
bargains-want most for their mon
ey. A search Of the Labor World will
point out the way,
Why can't We all work together on
this proposition Of the best things at
the least cost. The Labor World will
act as the medium between the mer-
chant and the purchaser.
