CHRISTMAS PRESENTS. 



Buy Them Early. 



No present gives so much pleasure or is so lasting as a good 

 book, and none is so thoroughly appreciated by the average 

 man, woman or child. A good book does not get broken or wear 

 out, but remains always a source of pleasure and instruction. 



Nothing is more annoying or inconvenient than to postpone the 

 purchase of Christmas gifts to the last moment, and appreciating this 

 fact we call attention to the following list of standard works suitable 

 for Christmas. These vary in price so as to fit every pocket, and 

 among them all something will be found to appeal to every taste. 

 Any of these books will be sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt of 



price.

 not with the whip. There is a chapter on 

 training pet and house dogs. Price $1.00.
