The Presbyterian Church had a very handsome Christmas tree, chuck full of presents, which Mayor Johnson, Andy McLaughlin, Cap. Palmer and others handed down to the happiest lot of yoai'g and older children yon ever saw. St. Lukt's church gave a supper down in Duke's 1LT. where a merry crowd sored away heaps of turkey and chickens and hul a merry time generally. The M. E. Church programme for Christmas night wa3 the most elabor ate perhaps of all. An arch in front of the Altar was filled with presents which were duly distributed by the dignitaries of the church and Sunday School. Santa Clau3 appeared, they had singing, speeches and a general Christmas welcome for all. Uarrie 1. The Herald receives the following Elegant Card, "Mr. and Mrs. A. C. White." And every one knows what that means. Arthur White has been getting married just before Christmas, to Miss Eva A. Corn well, at Crete, and the happy couple have come homo to spend Christmas with Father White. That's a nice Christmas present, Ar thur, to bring home to Father and Mother a now daughter. We are afiaid no oue will ever bring the poor old IIeuald such a present, but luck is luck and wo must all take our chan ces in this world, and the next too, for that matter. Every year since our connection with tho IIeuald as Christmas day ap proaches a substantial looking package is handed to us with " Kind wishes from Mr. and Mrs. Stadelmann," and that package contains a delicious fruit cake, which we always enjoy with manv kind wishes in return for the welfare of Mr. and Mrs. titadelmann and their family, and we hope that many Merry Christmases may dawn for them in return for their efforts to make it happy for others. The Musicale given by Miss Simpson on Saturday evening last to show the proficiency and progress of her pupils. gave a very pleasant evening's enter tainment to tlie parents and friends assembled. "Wo have long known and appreciated Miss Simpson's ability as a teacher and on that evening our ap preciation was enhanced as we observ ed ia the performances of the pupils, the results of patient training, and cul tivation of a taste for what we might call standard music. This class of properly instructed pupils growing up will help to elevate the musical taste of all around them, and thus the ef forts now confined to a few individ uals will have an influence much wi der in the future. Lack of time aud space incident upon the holiday duties prevent our mentioniag the perform ances of the pupils in detail. v e can only commend the scholars to persevere as they have begun and their progress will be much more rapid the higher they go, under such traiaiug. To Mis3 Simpsoa we 6ay, the people cf Platts mouth will appreciate more and more as time passes the opportunity that is offered them of gaining for their chil dren thorough musical instruction, and a reward better than the pecuniary one for honest work will cm Booner or later. Since our attempt at poetry has been adopted bv the schools, as i you may say, we have been thinking of writing a Primer in verse; one of the good old kind, containing moral senti ments, something like this: Children he good and mind your teacher. Say "tl'iink you, sir," and "mam" go hear the preacher. Cet well yc-nr lemons every day, lint mix your study with some play. "All work no play," you know thu ret. And wise folks think this is the bert. The exact apportion we'll not state. You- teacher's sense hhould know the rate. Don't bite oft more than you can chew. Doc'tciam. but learn things through and through. Thus will you mind and body strengthen. And wiser grow, as inches leufethen. Coal ! Coal ! ! Coal ! ! ! at Fred G or der's Xow is the time for your soft coal. Cheap for cash. 4Sto -The Livingston pony is the most useful r.nimal in tlie business. The children have it hooked up to their small sleighs, and it paddles all over town, pulling from three to half a doz en small sleighs, and a3 many more red nosed, red-flngered but happy young sters of both scies. Don't forget to call on the old reli able, Anthony G. Ilatt for your Xew Year's Turkeys. Geese, Ducks. Chick ens, or in fact anything in his line that you happen to want, you can get by ordering.

Some fellow from the construc tion train struck Charley Nichols ( by mistakc it is supposed ) with a sling shot, on Christmas night as he was going in to Leach's to 1 uy some can dy i'or his children. Too many drunken men on the street for Christ inas boys. It won't do. His name is John Groghan and lie was hauled up before Judge Sullivan tliis morning. Trial at 3 p. m. Three bummers we:.t into the back door of a certain Saloon Sunday night, to i'ft a drink. When they came out o they thought it would be fun to knock a couple of barrels of salt off the plat form of an adjoining store. Marshal Murphy gave them their choice, of sleeping in the cooler or returning the salt. They concluded to repined the barrels, and found it was not so much fun after all. We saw a very fine gray stallion on the street tlie other day. On in quiry, we found he belonged to Mr. A. M. Holmes, of Rock Bluffs. He is Eve vears old, half Norman and English Coach Horse, is not so stocky as the pure Norman, with plenty of bone and muscle; he has more life and action, weighs 1500 pounds, and is not fat. Altogether he seems a mighty likely horse, and the kind that our fanners need, to improve and give weight to our present stock. Cut Flowers for the Holidays.

A large proportion of the American people are to-day dying from the ef fects of Dyspepsia or disordered liver. The result of these diseases upon the masses of intelligent and valuable peo ple is most alarming, making life ac tually a burden instead of a pleasant existence of enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to be. There, is no good reason for this, if you will only throw aside prejudice and skepticism, take the advice of Druggists and your friends, and try one bottle of Green's August Fiower. Your speedy relief is certain. Millions of bottles of this medicine have been given away to try its virtues, with satisfactory results in every case. You can buy a.samplo bottle for 10 cents to try. Three doses will relieve the worst ease.
