A SWAP.
He gazed so long and earnestly,
Such compliments be paid,
I thougt he wished to latter me -
Poor, nusospecting maid.
Tie praised my raven tresaaa’ red bee,
My Ups called cherries
And thought my eyes were heavenly bine.
At leaat., that’s what he said.
Ha leaned ao close, he spoke so low,
I’m sure that no one heard;
He seemed to wish that 1, you know,
Should take him at his word

And very near iiis head—
“I wish that all these charms were mine !"

SOME OBSERVATIONS
About Christmas Presents and Kin-
dred Sub jeets.
Auy amount of pretty thing* can
be found in the stores just now.
Each day see* llie accumulation of
Christmas gift treasures grow larger.
A. tour of the establishments that
dial in brif-a-bra •, jeweiry, p, esious
stones ami metals will disclose arti
cles numerous enough to make in
their description u catalogue uu
wieldly to band.*, A leading local
dealer in jewels ruy* that the trade
in cl amends and other precious
stun s l* very gooJ this season. The
inhabitants of the city re beginning
to realize tin*, thsj can get these
U>i»>g8 in U s uiHiku without going
to ihe Northern as well as Eisteru
cilirs. Colored stones, such as rubier,
sapphire*, emeralds, topazes are
more frequently purchased tbao
formerly, and make their vaiying
tints when combined some remarka
bly pretty adornment*.
-* * *
The line of gifts < flared by the
hook stores is unusually large and
attractive. Tbs old-fashioned holiday
gift-book has died out, but has given
place to one which can bestow
equally as much delight and is in
season all the year round. The
stories of holiday ghost*, ringing
chime*, mistletoe, leaves and Christ
eras trees have been losing favor-
But the whz/lo world of poetry aud
romanco aud imagination has been
to find subjects which de¬
the old and the young, and
as the greatest urtiets of the
do not deem it beneath them to
the design fer a piano, a fire
or a piece of drapery, *o their
are called upon to illustrate
of ehildlife or calendars, or
master works of Shahspeare, of
and Tennyson. The result
that each succeeding Christmas
productions issuing from the
press that are not only things of
beauty but make us acquainted with
versv and song that the world will
not lot willingly dio. The purchaser
will find it hard to make on* selec
tion better than another from the
variety offered.

Dresses are, perhaps, not to a
great extent mads the mraus of con¬
voying Christmas congratulations,
but cert duly no thought occupies
greater prominence in the cob versa
lion* of the gentle sex. It is said
that if a half dozen ladies, more or
less, are seen talking together in a
parlor, street car or elsewhere, the
chance* are ten to one that dre»*
claim* a large share of the conversa
tion. Consequently any new da
pariura in dress, style or material i*
• fit to excite tome interest in their
minds. The supply of dres* good*
now on tho market is interesting,
whether extraordinary or not. On*
of the most imporUnt exhibits in
this lino is the stock of iaces, which
is large and probably better design
ed than last year.
