OUR CHRISTMAS GIFT
THE HAPPY HOLIDAY ' SEAs6n
is upon us.1-' V
TheTIMES Wishes to. Present
a Few or its Uegular and
True Patrons !with 'aVSmall
Christmas Gift? '
Tlie happy seasoVt Chrbtraas
is upon us again.T'.It ls-. the ,B3ason
when the purse strings of parent
and friend become loose, ..and a
deyire enters the breast of all ; kind
hearted people, to do Borne : act to
cause some one to feel happy.
While it is the desiro of the editor
of the Times that its patrons should
feel happy at all times, , he v knows
that, under the general run oiafFairs,
thin is almost an impossibility. Yet,
nevertheless,our earnest ciesire is in ex
istence. The editor would feel bap-,
py, sure 'nough, if it. was in his pow
er to make every patron and reader of
the Times a useful "Christmas Gift,"
but as fate has ordered otherwise,
he will have to content himself by
presenting his local advertising
patrons a small gift, by informing
its many readers where they can find
initable things for the joyous, occas-
on. -
As "Santa Claus" always looks "af
ter the good little folks, .before tak
ing up any time with the older ones;
we will begin with those stores
where such goods can fee -found.
For toys dolls and all suitable : things
for the children, you cannot fail to
be suited at the Big Racket, the
Boddie-Perry Drug Co; and at F, R.
Pleasants drug store. They" 'also
carry other and more substantial
goods that always come in'approprL
ately for thepccasion. i? C ;
If it is a piano, or ..nicnstriS
raent of any kind, a nice"'setof "fur
niture, rugs, etc., you will be almost
sure to find just what you want' at
Hollings worth's or the WteVHattW
Furniture Company.
For almost anything from a Jew's
Harp to a steam engine, and this
includes all good things to eat,
oeaVpi
rarely ever fail to. find J
