When I was in New York and other
Eastern cities this fall I purchased the
handsomest line of Holiday goods I
have ever had, consisting of Hand
painted China, Gold Vases, Imperial
Bronze Statuary, Gold Clocks, Toilet
Sets, etc., in addition to the latest
pieces of Jewelry. Most of these goods
are already in and it is not one bit too
early to buy for Xmas and if you call
and like any you can have them laid
aside until wanted. The early customers
get the best selection and I am already
selling Xmas goods.
