  CHRISTMAS 
  PRESENTS. 
  

  

  The 
  systematic 
  collections 
  that 
  we 
  put 
  up 
  are 
  very 
  attractive 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  instruc- 
  

   tive. 
  The 
  hard 
  wood 
  boxes 
  add 
  much 
  to 
  the 
  desirability 
  of 
  the 
  collections 
  for 
  

   presents 
  to 
  young 
  people. 
  Many 
  a 
  child 
  might 
  have 
  its 
  tastes 
  turned 
  to 
  natural 
  

   history 
  by 
  even 
  the 
  50c. 
  collection 
  which 
  is 
  very 
  pretty.
