HOLIDAY SHOPPING

The Consumers' League has caused to be printed a very timely article on holiday shopping. It will undoubtedly be better from all points of view and fr all concerned, if the suggestions of this article are followed by holiday shoppers. If those with Christmas shopping to do will begin now and get this trying work out of the way before the usual rush season begins, they will get their wants more thoughtfully supplied, more economically supplied and with better stocks to select from and with less worry to themselves, clerks, delivery-men and all others having to do in any way with holiday shopping. When the rush comes the crowds are such that it is almost impossible to take care of them and properly attend to their wants, the result being that many buy what they do not want in order to get through and get away from the jam. Then often they are dissatisfied with their purchases. All this unpleasantness can be avoided and all patrons better served if they will use a little forethought and attend to their shopping early.

The stores are all unusually well stocked at present and there are abundant clerks to take care of all comers. And those coming first will have the finest stock to select from and plenty of time to find what they want and be waited upon without jostling or hurrying. Now is the time to begin Christmas shopping.
