The Gift Book Shop

Messrs. Kelly & Walsh have always made a speciality of gift books. This year the range of these books from which to choose is remarkably wide, and the way in which they are bound leaves nothing to be desired. Some of them are exquisitely illustrated, many being entirely reproductions of hand work. The sets of Kipling, Dumas, and Stevenson are valuable additions to any library, and for the children—particularly if of British parents—nothing could be more appropriate as a gift than a copy of such a book as "Little Treasure Island." For the younger kiddies the Big Wheel outfit for making all kinds of mech-animal models, or a box of Mother Goose stationery, would be received with joy. A very exceptional display of writing and note paper is to be found at Kelly & Walsh. The "Sheerwhite" Linen, and 'Case des Fleurs', and Eaton's pink ift box are so attractively got up that one of these boxes placed on the writing table would be a temptation in itself to keep correspondence up to date. Flexible leather writing cases are beautiful gifts, and for solid comfort nothing could be more acceptable to a man than a Dunhill's Bruyere pipe. For making Christmas presents attractive there is a splendid assortment. at Kelly & Walsh of seals, ribbons, paper, and cord in holiday designs.
