A Merry Christmas is an old, old theme, **l yet always new. There is a gener ation of little toddlers who this year for the first time will listen at some loving mother's knee to wonderful tales of Santa Clans and other Christmas lore more wonderful than all the splendors erokedjby Aladdin's lamp will be just as potent as ever in convincing the Young America of to-day that the holiday season is worth all the rest of the year pot together. Do we hear an impatient Yes, yes, but having become a man I have put away childish things? Wait a moment, reader. Does it not add dig nity to the occasion to think that on Christmas morning a future President will concentrate his thoughts on a tin rattle with the same absorbed atten tion that he will one day devote to his inaugural address; that a coming Secretary of our Treasury will grapple with bis first financial problem and get an idea of the difficulties of specie resumption by attempting the im possible feat of shaking that bright new copper out of his toy bauk, etc. Then leaving the children, think of the pleasure derived from the exchange of gifts among the youth, the middle aged and the old; how it strengthens the ties of frienship and delights the loving hearts of dear ones to receive a proof of your fond remembrance and affectionate regard. Now we do not wish to worry or perplex you, but as a pointer we would just say, What, ever else you may do between now and New Year be sure and see onr novelties before buying any gifts tor your friends or relatives. Mind yon, we don't say bny of ÜB, we merely say see our attractions before you boy, and we wonld ask as a favor of yon to bring the children along. We hope every little child in this vicinity will be allowed to visit our place during the next two weeks. In order to accommodate our many friends throughout the county we will begin our great holiday distribution on Dec. 18tb, and continue until after the holidays. Come everybody and bring your friends and children along. Thanking you for your very liberal patronage during the past year I wish you one and all a merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year. X>. A..
