AND THE BAND PLA YED."

If the band concert at Music hall
on Saturday evening, under Mr..
Herrick's direction, is a sample of
what that organization is to furnish
from time to time during the winter.
then the audiences should be much
larger than was the case on this oc-
casion. 1t was an enjoyable affair,
minus the hum and buzz which are
inevitable a an outdoor concert, and
which interfere, seriously sometimes,
with ones enjoyment of the
better class of music. The apprecia-
tion which the band won from the
audience on Saturday evening was
fully deserved, for the manner in
which such selections as the mazurka
''En mi Soledad, "Torquato Tasso,"
the "Chilian Dance" and the "Skirt
Dance" were presented was crafty
ingly clean and smooth. Mr.. Batch
elderin his variations on the familiar r
air Tramp, Tramp Mr.. Cook in
his clarinet solo "Sparkling Dew
Drops" and Mr.. Felch in his piccolo
solo Nightingale Serenade" were
especially good, and each was ac-
corded an appreciative encore. The
whole program was finely given and
tended to increase local pride in the
st. Johnsbury band.

CHRISTMAS S SALES.

The annual Christmas social and

on Monday evening was largely at

affair. There were a great many
very pretty articles on sale, most of
which were disposed of early in the
evening, while the candy and ice
cream tables received their full meas

a profitable one for the ladies inter
ested, and the proceeds are to be
used in charitabl work The sale
continued during Tuesday.
The parlors of the Methodist church
were filled on Thursday aud Friday
evenings last, the occasion of a
Christmas sale. Fancy articles in
abundance were dispensed ''for a
considerations" and the opportunity
for social chat was taken advantage
of. On Friday evening a palatable
chicken pie supper was furnished by
the ladies and proved decidedly
popular.
The young ladies missionary soci-
ETY. connected with the South church
made a success of their sale on Fri
day afternoon and evening of last
week, clearing about $51. Fancy
articles and candies were offered and
quite generally purchased-a the
results prove. The society are to be
congratulated.

After a sublime discovery IN science, Sir
Isaac Newton said, Il do not know what
l may appear to the world, but to myself
l seem only like boy playing upon the
seashore, and diverting myself by now

shell than ordinary, while the great
ocean of truth lies all undiscovered before

of collecting the specimens which you

beetles and all insect life: the flowers and
ferns and many other objects of study
which live and move in great prOfus1on
