the good qualities Of both the oak and

VALUABLE PRODUCT.
The taunic acid extract finds many other
uses besides tanning, the chief being as
mordaunt for dyes. This last discovery has
rendered the first a financial success as the
production of fioer becomes a
side product. Mr.. Wa rand esti-
mates the contents of fannie acid in a
ton Of dried leaves and stems to be equal to
that of ton of oak bark, which is worth
about S2S ton. There is evidently a
considerable margin between a ton of oak
bark and ton of palmetto. The palmetto
costs less than $40 ton. The margin of
SIS will pay making the extract, pre-
pairing the fiber for carding it, and will pay
for the chemicals used and leave consider
able margin.
The vast territory covered by the saw
palmetto, amounting to millions Of acres, in
this state, growing on land that is so poor
and sandy as to be perfectly worthless for
agricultural purposes, regarded as of little
value after the turpentine and timber have
been removed, will occupy in the future
very prominent part in national economy.
The palmetto will take the pl ICE of oak and
hemlock, and will allow these trees to grow
as timber for future generations, while on
the other hand it will take the place of lutte
and will be competitor with the cheap
East India labor at 81 cents per day.

THE CHRIS FAN SUNDAY SCHOOL.
Rev. 7. H. Blenus' school Celebrates
Christmas

The Sunday school of the Christian
church celebrated Christmas last night by
a Christmas concert service entitled, THE
Story of Jesus" The service was a very
simple one, butvery pretty and interesting.
1t was the story of Jesus narrated IN
hymns, prophecies and scripture questions.
1t was participated IN by the children
and the pastor Rev. T. H. Blenus.
The exercises opened with a song by the
school, followed by prayer by Rev. Mr..
Blenus. The children taking part in the
entertainment took their seats upon the
pulpit platform, except the infant class.
which was seated with the choir.
The poetical parts of the story were re-
cited by the pupils, each having sever ii
yer. es to recite. After each recitation by
pupil the superintendent read the
scripture quotation appropriate, fol-
lowing which was a response
by the school with similar quotation.
There were frequent responses by the pas
tor also.
The readings and responses were divided
under two heads, The prophecy" aud THE
fulfillment." the first giving the prophecies
foretelling Christ's coming, and the second
their fultllment, with incidents in the life of
Christ and bis reception in heaven as given
Ill revelations.
The singing of Jewels by the infant
class was very sweet. The singing by the
choir was good. Coronation" was sung in
closing.
This concert service takes the place of the
usual Christmas tree Of the Christian
church Sunday school.

hotel men are anticipating that the heavy
tourist travel south will begin within the
next few days, and that in two or three
weeks the season will be at its hight.
The hotel men say that as soon as every
thing in the fashionable world up north
settles down after the holidays, the stream
OF travel will turn southwark in earnest,
and from Jan. to Jan. 10 and
on they expect full houses to the
end of the season. The hotels
have great anticipations of very heavy
business. basing their hopes upon
the prospects of severe winter
north. They argue that as last
winter was very mild and as there has been
no severe cold this winter up to date, they
may reasonably expect that the weather
north during the remainder of the season
will be very severe.

and poor, were present, and every one

DR.. Harrison is fluent speaker, and his

sound, practical advice. He is aided in his
talk, by dissolving stereopticon views.
which wildly portray the results of error
and vice. Many beautiful foreign scenes
were interspersed with those of an anatom-
ical character.
He made a strong appeal to fathers re-
garding their sons, and urged upon them
the absolute necessity of warning them at
the proper age against the many pitfalls
which would assail their paths, and ne con-
tended that it is mistaken idea of moral
ity to withhold such instruction. The
lecture in its entirety was a powerful plea
for wider and purer morality. and was
attentvely listened to.
