“There were transferred to the conference
seven ministers, and four were transferred
from this conference. Fourteen applicants
for the ministry were admitted on trial;
thirteen deacons were ordained, and two
eiders were ordained, while two of the
preachers died during the year.
The amount of money raised during the
year for foreign missions as per reports made
was $3,207 71, and for domestic missions
$1,870. The amount raised for the church
extension was $4,700 85, and the conference
collection for the Methodist college at Lees
burg amounted to $1,200.
The membership of this church in Florida
as per reports is now over 16,000, and the
increase is rapid and healthy.
Before adjourning it was decided that the
next annual conference should be held at
Bartow.
CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
Some Shings That Should Not Be
Given.
From the New York Star.
I say to girls, then, don't give your young
man a cigarette case. He has a number
already, and smokes more than is good for
him.
Don't give him a flask. He holds enough
as it is.
Don't give him a scarf pin or ring. He is
sufficiently bedecked with jewelry.
Don’t give him a moucfcoir case. He
smells now.
Don’t give him a caehe-nez. It will make
his throat delicate.
Don’t embroider him a sofa cushion. He is
lazy enough.
Don't give him a walking stick. He’ll
leave it in the first ’‘art gallery” he goes to.
Don't give him your photograph in a
frame. Ke’ll mention it at his club.
But if you want to lie kind, give him a
copy of some good, standard author on some
sensible, serious subject, and tell him that
vour regard and appreciation for him in the
future depends entirely upon his familiarity
with at least that one subject of living in
terest.
It is rather more difficult to advise young
men to shop for their best girls, but I should
say:
Don’t give her a fan She will ait down
on it at her fl.-x*. ball, or you will if she
don’t.
Don’t give her a smelling bottle, unless
you want her to “feel faint” on every possi
ble occasion.
Don’t give her a girdle, for it is the most
hideous “ornament” of the age.
Do.i’t givo her an enameled flower pin,
for some other fellow is sure to have spared
you the trouble.
Don’t give her a bangle with a padlock
and key, unless yon want her to giggle
whenever she gets alone with her girl
friends.
Don’t give her silver ornaments for her
dressing table. .She spends too much time
there already.
Don’t give her a bon honniere. Her com
plexion is none too good as it is.
Don’t give her garter clasps. It isn’t
comma il faut.
Don’t send her flowers. She’ll forget you
by New Year’s.
But, dear boy. if you can jiersnade her to
accept one tiny little theatre Iromiet, not
more than four inches tall, and can impress
it upon her that all your future allegiance
and happiness depend upon her wearing it
whenever she goes to the play, then indeed,
you have contributed to the merry Xmas
of your species.
Prophylactic In Sickness.
“Typhoid fever has broken out here
again, but wherever Darbys Prophylactic
Fluid has been freely used there has been no
lover.’*—M. B. Lancaster, P. M., Ed. Cen
tral Alabamian.
“The Fluid is not merely a deodorizer,
but a disinfectant—a destroyer of the dis
eased germs in an atmosphere which cannot
be breathed without danger."— Wew York
aiming Post.
