Be on time for
Santa Claus

ANTA Claus time came
round last year and found
you with your gifts only

half ready — it spoiled your
Christmas. The gifts you sent
away arrived days after the
stockings had been emptied—
after the Christmas tree was a
thing of the past—too late to be
fully appreciated. You had
tried to do everything yourself,
and to do it in the last few days.

Be on time this year. Save
yourself worry and expense—

let us do the work for you.

Send for our Gift Book. Give
us the page’and number of the
gift you want for "Father,"
® Mother," "Brother Bill," —
all the long list. Part of an
evening will do it—you won't
have to leave your cozy fireside.

The parcelling, stamping, ad-
dressing, etc.—all the bother-
some part—we do without ex-
tra charge. We pay delivery
charges and are responsible for
anything lost or damaged,

Don’t wait for " To-morrow *®
—" To-morrow" never comes.

Write for the Gift Book to-day.
