There's ehrisimas
in the Air.
Every man, Woman and Child is imbued with the spirit of good will—the desire to
give is strong upon everybody, who is able to give. And this is the season when those
not able to give are. willing to receive in kindly, thankfulness—there's no thought of
charity at Christmas time. By the way, . if you'll but stopto analyze your own heart,
you'll say there's more pleasure in giving than in receiving,,Christmas gifts..
We have made large preparations to help you in your buying of gifts., Never be-
fore have we provided so bountifully., COME',AS EARLY IN THE DAY AS YOU CAN.

carefully after the interests of the railway.
Hia train has never yet met with a serious
