totting presents for your loved ones. It is as easy to give a useful article as one which
is a matter of ornament only and of short duration. A nice dress makes an useful
present; so does a plush or cloth wrap, a trunk, a bax of socks or stockings, a'pair of
gloves, a pair of btaokefs, a suit or overcoat, a smoking Jacket, n pair of fine dres
shirts, silk handkerchiefs aod mufflers, hand painted table scarfs, a nice necktie and
hundreds of other articles we carry in stoek. Two special purchases for Christmas
trade:
No. 1 is 60 dozens of lovely styles In Handkerchiefs of every description and prise;
ranging from 2Jtfc# to |L50 each. No 2.100 811k Umbrellas, the prettiest assortment of
new styles you ever saw. Gold and silver heads, natural sticks, cherry wood handles,
etc. It will positively do you good to see them. You are very cordially invited to ex
amine our offerings; you will receive polite and prompt attention, an l if yon see noth
ing to salt you, we shall not expect yon to buy. Will you take the trouble to give us a

One of the largest hawks ever

near and was elawad clear through
hla clothes, drawing the blood and
a loud yell.
