The Christmas Trees.

The Christmas trees for the different
Sunday schools in the village, Christmas
eve were all very successful affairs and
called out a large attendance. The
children of the different schools were all
remembered and their interest in the
fruit the tree bore was manifested by
their sparkling eyes and eager faces
while waiting for the distribution to
commence. The Episcopals held theirs
at the Town Hall where brief service
was conducted by Rev. w w. Rafter, after
which the presents were distributed. At
the close of the distribution sleighs con
veyed those who desired to go to the rec
tory where an exceedingly pleasant even
ing was spent.
The tree at the Methodist church was
one of the most successful ever given at
that church. The room was handsomely
decorated with evergreens, and the
tree was loaded with gifts for old and
young. The attendance was quite large,
about all the church could accommodate.
Everything passed off pleasantly and all
present were happy.
The Congregational church was trim
med in very tasteful manner and the
tree, brilliantly lighted with wax tapers,
was well filled with presents showing
that Santa Claus had been around.
Contrary to the usual custom the ex-
ereises were few, the evening being de-
voted to the more interesting feature of
such occasions, to the children, the dis
tributiOn of the presents.
The Sunday school at Duncan City had
their tree at the school house Christmas
night. The room was nicely trimmed
with eyergreens. and number of ap-
prOpriate notices adorned the walls.
Interesting exercises proceeded the dis
tributiOn of the presents all of which
were very much eniOyed.

Christmas.

The day was all that could have been
desired. The atmosphere was cool and
bracing but the day was calm so that
the cold was not felt. The most of the
business house were closed giving the
employees chance to enjoy the day. The
shooting for turkeys, chickens, etc., at
the foot of Main street attracted quite a
crowd, and poultry as general thing
brought good price. In the afternoon
the rifle shoot for the championship
badge came off. The distances were
100, 200, and 300 yards, shooting off hand,
each contestant shooting five balls at
each range. 1t will be noticed that a
much better score was made than at the
former contest. There were only three
contestants, and the following is the

report OF the secretary Of the Navy.
WAsHINGTON, November p.

WASHINGTON, November 20
Secretary Thompson, in his report of
the condition and operations OF the
Navy Department, says; ...
The condition of the navy has greatly inn
proved during the past year. There are now
In commission thirty-five vessels. consisting OF
cruisers, monitors and torpedo boats. VI the
different classes, sixteen can be put IN condl-
ton for sea service in a few months ana twen-
ty could be made ready in an emergency.
With this done, the fighting force OF the navy
which might be made available i'll a very short
time would consist of eigllty-one vessels of all
classes and if to this number be added the
four IuoIitors-Terror.= Puritan, Amplitude
and Monadnock-and eighty powerful tugs,
which can be fitted for either cruisers or tOrpe-
do boats our whole eff ective lighting force
would consist of ninety-three vessels. The un-
expended balance of appropriations when
stood TO the credit of the Department at the
last fiscal year WAS $1,4lS.245.37, which, added
TO the appropriations, makes the aggregate OF
appropriations available for the fiscal year
ending June 30. 1880. Sl4,5O2. 25O.67 The table
of estimates submitted of the expenses for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1881, aggregate

priations of the previous year of S36l, SO
This excess is accounted for by the fact that
the estimate for the pay of the navy was re
duced S106,725 in the appropriations; That
$4,000 will be required by the system OF tram
ing boys for the navy and by other expenses
i'm various bureaus which are mentioned in
detail. For the first time probably in the his
tory OF the Government the expenses of the
past year were less than the amount OF the
appropriation.

Butter Making.

The attention of farmers and dairy
men is particularly called to the notices
of the = Gilt Edge Butter Maker which
are appearing in this paper from time
to time. 1t is confidently claimed that
the use of this preparation increases the
amount of butter from six to ten per
cent; that the flavor is better and
beautiful color secured; that the time
consumed in churning is greatly short
ened, and that the keeping qualities are
much improved-the natural conse-
uuence of all which being that butter
made by it is always in demand at a
handsome advance on the price OF the
ordinary article. Judging from the tes-
tiinonials given, these claims are not
extravagant, and the Gilt-Edge"
should prove . valuable acquisition to
every butter maker. 49,.

AS the season for lemons is ap-
preaching, it is well to remember that
this fruit is considered excellent in many
kinds of sickness-in fevers, in stomach
complaints, and bilious troubles. Lem
on juice is the best antiscorbutic remedy
known. 1t is said that the gums may
be kept in q healthy condition by rub
bing them every day with lemon juice ;
also that neuralgia may be cured by its
external use, warts removed. and dan
druff on the head destroyed by it. If
all this is true, the lemon is more val
liable fruit that is generally supposed.
