Appropriate
Easter gifts
The Easter jjift should be in keeping with
customs prevailing nt this spring festival,
A modish piece of jewelry, which enhances
the beauty of spring cloths, is a charming
Easter gift. A silver bud holder, or a cut
glass basket for flowers, is especially
appropriate for an Easter present.
Rosaries and crosses are most fitting of all
confirmation presents.
Clinton's being preeminently the gift store,
has many articles, at inexpensive price?,
in keeping with the spirt of Easter time.
