Give a Photo

Of yourself to friends and relatives this year. Perhaps nothing so modest a value would please them as well and perpetuate pleasant memories for so long a time. Arrange for a sitting by phone No. 58. Many of your intimate friends would probably prefer an artistic likeness, such as are produced by the Swayne Studio, to anything else you might present them at Christmas time. The time is short.
