Hymns and Christmas oarrols were sweetly sung by the children and we are sure those who saw the bright and happy faces of the little onee with arms fall of remembrances, felt that their work had not been in vain. Servicea appropriate to the occa sion were held at the different churches on Sunday. The weather was quite cold bnt the unnsnal oc currence of Christmas dpy. falling the Sabbath brought ont good con gregations. The decorations in the Methodist church were of holly, ivy, and moss. The pulpit was especially pretty. A Quartette- by members of the choir was sweetly rendered and the sermon by the Ptutor was given in the thoughtful and pleasing manner with which he hes before impressed his congregation. The Baptist Sunday School, was given a Christmas Tree, on Monday afternoon, which was also a decided success. It was arranged oU the rostrum and teden with everything that goes to make a child happy And judging from the number of scholars, 200 or more, it must have bten groaning beneath the weight of gifts.

The Department of Agriculture is about to publish an interesting re port comparing the cost of living early in this cehtury with what it is now.

The small wages paid in thoee days are as surprising as the low prices of commodities of all sorts. Game was abundant early in the century and therefore cheap.

Apples were from twelve and a half to twenty-five cents a bushel, but by 1823 they had reached fifty-cents.

If theta wefe big crops they could not be sold) if partial lail- ures there was almost nothing to sell.
