Gifts
A Problem that Concerns YOIJ
The question that you eternally ask yourself when about,
to make Birthday, Xmas, New Year and other gifts isr "What
is it the recipients of ray gifts want most, will be mo3t pleas
ed with; what will give them the greatest and most pleasant
surprise, and what will look its value without too great an
outlay of money." , ' ' ,
It i3 not the appraissd value" in money that makes your gift
valuable in the eyes of WORTHY friends, but the THOUCHT
you have put into it. ,
A PHOTOGRAPH carries with it onlv the outline cf your
face and form, but rekindles the memory of pleasant days
and happy hours, and brings afresh to the mind the price
less boon of friendship.1 ' ' '
YOUR PHOTOGRAPH as a gift of remembrauce to your
friends and relatives will give more real pleasure to them
and less trouble and expense to you than a more costly gift
they cannot use.
