CHRISTMAS was lovely day in sunny
brightness and beauty. We have no
recollection Of ever seeing such mild
and pretty December, Winter has colo
nized in the North and left us sunny skies
and warmth of atmosphere. Fires have
not been needed and people walked the
streets without overcoats and felt like TAX
ing off all thick clothing. In many gar
dens, strawberry blooms have truited into
ripe strawberries, while flowers have put
out their pretty petals in sweetest fra
GRANGE. Truly this climate gives to man
a home that cannot be excelled and enlists
every feeling of graft tude to the Gver of
all good
The old year lost her warmth and died
in the chilly embrace of cold wave. The
New Year, in it 'swaddling clothes, SILVER

CHRISTMAS passed over without accidents
or any ugly feature to mar its beauty.
The usual amount of fireworks were ex-
pended, and good deal of cheer and
hilarity were visible. Now and then John
Barleycorn showed up victim, but as a
general thing sobriety was the rule.
Feasting and merriment and good will
prevailed. Homes were made bright and
happy by the good things of life while
presents and gifts were lavishly bestowed.
Prof j. R. Seals pony tested one of
Mr.. W. E. Gramling's make of buggies on
Thursday afternoon last, by running away
with it. When half way around the park,
the buggy turned over, the shafts were
broken but the pony kept on his way.
The buggy was but little damaged. Good
honest home work always stands the rack
