Other Holiday Goods.
I y ^
Pine box paper and fancy stationery.
A choice assortment of winter hup robes in a wide
range of colors and all beautifully decorated.
We have been very busy opening up and arrang-
ing our stock for Christmas shopping and as this
ad was written hurriedly many suitable gift arti-
cles have no doubt been overlooked. So if you do
not happen to see what you want mentioned ’Xhcre
do not take it for granted that we haven’t got it
because it would be almost impossible to enumer-
ate every single article. The wide variety of our
line and the reasonableness of our prices are
good reasons why you should do your Christmas
shopping here.
