Brief but Pointed Motto fer the Buyer of Christmas Gifts.

A timely slogan: Trade at home!
 These are the days to make glad the hearts of your towns merchants who in many cases have to depend upon holiday business to offset dull weeks earlier in the year.
 Theirs are blue days, when 1t storms and clerk hire and other expenses run right on; when perhaps they have you on their books for ancient bills, yet are well aware that you are sending money out of town for mail order' purchases or similar bargains CD that you are in clubs often and like catch penny schemes. Make it up to them now! Be patriotic!
 Don't benefit strange merchants by whom you benefit nothingi Polish up your conscience for the holidays, at least!
 Spend your money where you make it!"
 And when you have resolved to do this, The Bulletin advertisers will put you wise where and how to get the most satisfactory kind of Christmas gifts for what you have to spend! =.
