A very popular feature of the Chicago Weekly Xews are its six com plete stories in every issue. The sto ries are well selected, often rich in dramatic interest, and alwas pure and wholesome in tone, making the Week ly Xews especially welcome in the home circle. Although it has been a very Mer-i-y ChtisMnas, w think we never saw Plattsmouth gayer, or disposed to en joy itself more than this time. A larger number of presents were bought and a more general celebration of the day than usual took place. Fred Gorder's Sundav School (German Presbyterian) held a Christ mas festival Saturday evening n-er Mr. Gorder's store.

Among the varie ties were White Winter Pearmain, Ben Davis Milam, Dominee, Winter Pippin, Geniting and a magnificent great big fellow name unknown. They were all beauties and we shall remember Mr. Churchill as we feast on the red-cheeked bo.iuties. Mr. Hesser never forgets the Her ald, and a lovely boquet of feathery white blossoms, some evergreens t decorate for Christmas, and some of tho largest, handsomest red apples ever seen testified to that fact the day before Christmas. May he live long and prosper ad sell a million dollars dollars worth of beautiful blossoms! Mr. A G. Hatt had the mammoth turkey of the season hanging out at the door of his shop, before Christ mas. It weighed, undressed 54 lbs, drebsed 26 ft3, was a glorious old fellow, ind a good sign of tlie many more inside which graced the tables of l'latis mouth's citizens and added to the good Christmas cheer.

The City Council made a Christ mas gift of the new sidewalk between Vine and Main St.. to the citizens of Cth St. and a most welcome present it was too, gentlemen, and one we appre ciate every time we go down town. We have often observed that a newspaper may praise a man over and over and notice him for a dozen years, and sometime when it is busy and honestly forgets some little thing he has done or justly criticizes some thing he has left undone, how mad the man gets, never remembering the years of kindness, the many friendly notices; but only remembering the one omission or the one unfriendly criti cism. Xow, we wish to return good for evil, and as we have said the coun cil did not fix the streets and clean things up as well as they might, some times, when they do do a handsome thing we want to give them all praise deserved. So we are very miiih pleased with our Christmas sidewalk and wish you a happy happy Xew Year in return. The Masonic ball was well attended and proved a great success as far as enjoyment aud a pleasant sociable time went. Financially the lodge w ill just about clear herself.

Mr. an 1 Miss Loder gave us one of the best little entertainments wo have had, at the Presbyterian church, Thursday evening. Mr. Loder's decla mations were Tery fine and if they hadn't "run it into Politics" (a'ht Setut- tore) it would have been excellent. Miss Loder hits a beautiful mobile face. Her hair was combed down pla:n on each side of her forehead and she looked so much like the girls we used to know, that we fell in love with her at once. It looked so pure and honest after the frizzes and "bangs' of the period. If young ladies could just see themselves as others see them, never a bang would be hung out again. We have often thought if we had a female acquaintance that was bound for "his Majesty's" region below and it was our duty to prepare her for the journey, we would bang her hair, put a new fangled hat on one side of her head, and a two foot wide circingle round her waist and start her on the journey. Aside from the simplicity of Miss Loder's costume her recitations show ed more than ordinary ability and if she adopts that line certainly has the prospect of future success before her. The duett of Mr. Marsland and Mr. Petlee was very fine, in fact the sing ing was excellent as well as the rest of the entertainment. Both gentle men have beautiful voices and they blend in great harmony. The Only Exclusive Wall Paper Store iu Towu. Mr. C. R. Dovey has opened a new place over Baker tfc Co.'s Store where will be found a varied stock of Wall paier with patterns and styles much liner and handsomer than anything seen here before. Dovey also keeps Window Shades and Painters' Supplies, and does all kinds of House, Sigr and Ornamental painting, and none but the best work men are kept in his employ. Among the rooms Mr. Dovey has finished thin season are those of Mr. llerold over his new store which are two of the haudsoniest rootss in the State. The designing and decorating are in the very best taste, and will certainly compare favorably with aiy we have seen any where. The woodwork is grained in French walnut rich and dark in color. The naner is hung after Eastlake stvle with a Hue Dado and Frieze and gilt mould ings to correspond. The rooms are worth seeing and persons can judge for themselves. Mr. Dovey's own rooms contain many fine samples of paper hangings really artistic. In short he can do you any kind of work in Knishing a room that you want, and is open for busi ness this spring and summer. Give him a call aud examine for yourself. A New Tears' Statement. Ed. Herald: The industrial year of 1880 is fast nearing a close, will you have the kindness to permit me the'use of your valuable paper to ex press many thanks to ray- numerous patrons for their liberal support to maintain our home manufacturing in stitution. During the year 1830 the amount paid for cigar making, tobacco strip ping, packing. &c, was $3380.00, which was paid by the people of Plattsmouth and vicinity. But if these people had paid this same money to these eastern infected cigar firms referred to in the Scientific American of Xov. 13, 1880, no part of it would the Plattsmouth people ever see again. Why not to a certain extent consider yourself a partner in the firm of Peppuberg and enjoy a portion of the profits, put in your influeuce as well as jour trade. and when ru send customers to us we will see that our manufacture shail prove satisfactory to them. During my visit tt Xew York in Xov. last, I purchased at two of the most reliable houses the choicest Leaf Tobaico, sufficient for my trade for 1881 ; this alone is a guarantee to en able me to supply the Xebraska trade with uniform, finest quality aromat ic cigars, such as will surety be most appreciated by dealers and consumers of the tobacco weed. Thanking my friends and patrons for their liberal support and inviting their kind patronage in the future and wishing all a happy and prosperous Xew Year, Years for square dealing and Home Industries.

Ml 1 1 : Christmas Eve Doings at the Tarlous Conrchcs. The Sunday School children enjoyed high holiday on Christmas Eve. At the Baptist Church a heavily laden tree held presents for over eighty chil dren, and Santa Claus distributed them to the happy little ones who be held him with wondering eyes. At the Christian Church there was another tree, and strange to say, San ta Claus was there too. But you know the old lellow must have learned the secret of being in many places at once, else how cotild he get around all over the globe to recompense all the little children and big ones too, who look for him at Christmas tide. The Episcopal Sunday School had supper, with candy bags, in the base ment of the Church where tliey en joyed themselves for an hour or two and then adjourned to the Church proper and sang Christmas carols. At the Methodist Church was still another tree, and another house full of happy children. We lost track of old Santa Claus and don't know whether he got round there or not, but no doubt he did and the happy children all went home to dream of jolly old St. Xiehtdas and his eight tiny rein deer, whi lives in the frosty Xorth lanti anti who at the cnristmas tide, sweeps down upon us with his loads of toys, his furry coat and his jolly phiz, and mysteriously comes down the chimney to till the stockings hanging there, or else presides over his special delight, some Christmas tree. Long may the happy memories, the pleasant feelings and the kindly inter change of interests of which Santa Claus is symbolic, reign among us and creeping into the children's hearts make them better men and women, to help their fellow men, not only at Christmas tide, but through all the seasons as thev come.
