In buying ChrUtmas gifts, remember the furniture R. Foster A Son, on north Fourth street, are selling at such low prices. And the fine line of chromoBHthree of tharn framed for four dollars.

That aeoond lot of blankets and lap robea at Peter Miller's, on south Fourth street, is going like hot cakes. And no wonder, at the low prices at which they are sold.

Take our advice. Buy the lioota and shoes sold by J. P. Tutt. He is a veteran in the trade, knows the wants of the people, knows where to buy the best goods, is prompt in paying for them, and hence buys low, and can sell low His stock is always full and complete and the goods can be relied on for being just as represented.
