IL Anderson. author Of
Dark Laughter" and other
ultra-modern NC els, here to

away from marriage when it
becomes a hypocrisy"

The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1925-12-02

Business in the holiday lines
started in September and increases
as Christmas approaches. Imported
perfumes find a ready market and
dolls are selling well. Many Of the
wholesale houses added lines of dolls
for the first time this year.
Although tobacco is a good seller
at all times, wholesale druggists find
their business in that line increasing
with the holidays. For the thirty
days preceding Christmas, Mooney
estimates business in holiday cigars
handled by the Wholesale druggists
increases about rs per cent.
The small box of twenty fiye-cigars
packed in Christmas wrapper finds
sales only during December.
One wholesale drug company
finds their country trade buying
more holiday goods as well as staple
lines. Toilet goods especially have
a ready market in the pharmacies Of
the small Indiana towns.
Toys and novelties are selling
readily to Indiana druggists. I'm
proved retail stores, longer hours
and educated clerks all tend to in
crease trade.
