A DELIGHTFUL CHRISTMAS GATHERING.
 On the evening of December g there was gathering of about 70 friends and neighbors at Hillside Farm, Hoyden's Hill, the home of Leslie A. Jennings, which was appropriately trimmed with pine and laurel for the occasion, to listen to the Christmas exercises, consisting of recitations and dialogues, by the children of Hoyden's Hill school, taught by Miss Minnie Lewis. Both teacher and schol- ars had spent some time preparing for the entertainment, which proved to be a success, as the children did credit to their teacher. The program was nice and was listened to at1entively. The ex- ercises were opened by little Edna Bulk ley and Emma Hiilyer with 8 welcome to all. Little three-and-one-half-ye r-oid Clinton Sherwood, when placed upon the platform to recise, gazed with wonder and astonishment at the faces before him, forgetting for 8 little while what was ex- pected of him but soon rallied, and spoke his piece, which Has greeted with roars of laughter. After the closing address was made by Ebert Nichols, the teacher invited the scholars and friends to see tLe beautiful Christmas tree, which she had taken so much pains in prepa ing. The tree was trimmed and filled with gifts for each scholar. There were books, games, toys, etc., also candies put in boxes to initiate houses for each, and some extra ones for the little visitors that came. While they were admiring the tree, sleigh bells were heard, and soon old Santa Claus was ushered in with his furs, boots, mittens and snow on his cap, which looked as if it showed where he
 came from. The children were delighted
 to see Santa Claus, and after shaking hands with the little folks began to dis,
 tribute the gifts. Listle Edna Bulkley
 on receiving book. found 8 slip of pa. per inside and exclaimed with dancing leyes that Santa had written her g letter
 The teacher was remembered with .
 beautiful gift from her scholars, showing
 the esteem in which she is held by hel
 pupils. MT and Mrs Santa G,sus ant teacher were also remembered with gifts
 Every one was pleasedsto see the chil dren looking 80 happy in receiving thei
 gifts and almost wished they, toss wer' children. to be remembered by Sant'
 Claus. Then came time to say good nigh
 and Merry Christmas to all.

A TIME OF PRESENTATIONS.

The Christmas entertainment of the Congregational Sunday school came of on Friday evening last. The vestry and parlors were filled with the children and their friends and in one corner stood a large tree ladened with presents for the latter. The exercises preliminary con- sisted of singing and recitations by the children and remarks by the pastor and superintendent. Then refreshments of cake and ice cream were served to all, after which the presents were distributed to the children, who, of course, were de- lighted. When this part was concluded the pastor, Rev l.. NJ. Keneston, was call ed out and presented by the superintend- ent in behalf of his many friends with handsome upholstered foot rest and 8 finely bound volume of the poems of Dr Holmes, which was total surprise and he feeliagly responded and then in return retaliated on the superintendent by pre- senting him in behalf of the teachers with two companion pictures in frames and he was in turn surprised and pleasantly re- sponded.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is famous for it's cures of bad cold. It opens the seeretions, relieves the lungs and aids nature in restoring the system to healthy condition. If freely used as soon as the cold has been contracted, and before it has become settled in the sys- tenn, it greatly lessens the severity of the attack and has often cured in single day what would have been severe cold.
