The Merry Hum of Happy Holiday Shoppers Is heard continuously these days iu every coruer of the store, and before the weeU end conies it is quite safe to say that the rush will be greater than we can comfortably attend to. The truth is, we seem to have hit the public fancy in the selection of our Holiday Gift Goods, aud the word has evidently gone around among the shrewd buyers that we ve got the right thiugs for presents at the right prices. That at any rate is the only reason we can think of for the un usual briskness amoug the holiday lines, so mauy days before Christmas. This fact suggests the ex pediency of au early visit to the store, if you would avoid the rush that is sure to come within a day or two, when it will be impossible to give our irieuds aud patrons we would like to bestow on them. Our Line of Holiday Goods Includes Dolls, Toys, Games, Books, Bric-a-Brac, Jewelry, Clocks, Fancy Leather Goods, Art Needlework, Perfumery, Handkerchiefs, Umbrellas, Silk Waists, Furs, Cloaks, Drape ries, Blankets, Table Linens, Fancy Neckwear, Gloves, Men's Furnishings, Etc. And, as usual, we carry the complete assortments iu town, The Publisher's Trade Book Sale Gains strength daily, and why shouldu't it?
