It is a time when all can re joice with great gladness—t he old and the young, the rich and tho poor. The mani fold blessing we are receiving from this great Festival should inspire each and all to gladness. Let the little ones rejoice— give them presents that will cheer their hearts, and make their "cup of joy run over." The poor also should not be for gotten, for they are entitled to our sympa thy at all times, and especially at this coming Festival. You will feel all the better by bestowing a portion of your wealth to those who are in needofcharity. Remember that "it is more blessed to give than to receive." Those who act up to the noble injunction will never I egret it, and they will receive a blessing for so doing. It is the season of merry-making in the true sense of the word, and all who act upon it will surely be "blessed in their basket and in their store." This is the way to make a happy Christmas. —Have you selected your Christ mas presents?

A HOLIDAY LETTER, To Young Men and Women who Think. DEAR FRIENDS: — We want a word with you. We feel that we are not en tire strangers to the young people of this community, especial'v to those who have hopes and ambitions for the future. We want to help you, if you are willing to help yourselves. We wish to pnt you in fnll possession of yourselves, and arouse you to a realization of your own power. We want the attention of the young people of this city and vicinity who have not had, and cannot secure, the advan tages of a collegiate or a university course, but who are anxious to make the most of themselves, and are willing to work for that end. Especially do we wish to reach those who have had but limited advantages in early life. Those who are backward in literary studies, and who feel keenly their need in this age of competition, of an every day education, one that is useful rather than ornamental. One that they must have if they would win in life's race. The learned professions are already full, and 110 young man should aspire to them who has not the time and money to spend in years of closest study. In the business world, however, it is different. Here there is a brisk demand for bright, active, entergetic, and wide awake young men and women, who are thoroughly qualified to do business. For these the demand is far beyond the supply. Many times has it lieen our pleasure to confer upon such young men and women the training which has enabled them to se cure lucrative and pleasant positions, for hundreds of others, there are still golden opportunities. The question is. will you avail yourselves of them? It is our aim to make this institution peculiarly a "peoples school." We find our most satisfactory field in helping young tnen and women of limited means ac quirements to preparation that will fit them for taking a position upon the lad der that leads to success, In our school, every effort is made to help our students to get the most out of the time and mon ey they are devoting to business training, In our"class rooms we welcome every one who wishes to make the most of himself. Our teachers are capable, scholarly and generously alive to the welfare of their pupils. Young friends, do you aspire to develop your powers of usefulness, and for making your influence felt in the world? Would you be something more than a mere "hewer of wood and drawer of water" for other people? If so, read this letter again and ask yourself if we are not right in advising you to enter at once upon a course of careful business instruction. If you are near by, come and see us: if not, write to us. Tell us your hopes and plans, and we shall be only too glad to advise and aid you. We shall be glad to give full particulars of the splendid work we are doing in our school, courses of instruction terms, etc. May we not see or hear from you soon; Sincerely yours, BUTLER BUSINESS COU.EGE & SCHOOL O F SHORTHAND.
