There comes from a correspondent in Japan this example of circulars In English that Japanese tradesmen Hometimes compose: •'Dear Sir 1 have the honour to write n letter for you that I have now established the meat market and Its bnuieh to deliver the meat ns one of the blanch of my slaughter house, as which I have many cattle, their pastures, their markets, milk houses, and a slaughter house, etc . and 1 will have a fresh meat with the most cheapest price from my sloughter house than other inn hery and especially make you many reduction for every day purchaser for month.

THE DELUGE. - Queer Old Australian Tradition About the Flood. The aboriginal blacks of Australia have a queer tradition about the flood They say that at one time there was no water on the earth at all except in the body of an immense frog, where men and women could not get at it There was a great council on the subject. and It was found out that if the frog could be made to laugh the waters would run out of his mouth and the drought be ended. So several animals were made to dance and caper before the frog to induce him to laugh, but be did not even smile, and so the waters remained in his body. Then some one happened to think of the queer contortions into which the eel could twist itself, and it was straightway brought before the frog, and when the frog saw the wriggling he laughed so loud that the whole earth trembled.'and the waters poured out of his mouth in a great flood, in which many people were drowned. The black people were saved from drowning by the pelican. This thoughtful bird made a big canoe and went with it among ail the islands that ap- \ peared here and there above the sur- | face of the water and gathered lu the \ black people and saved them.

Os all the days in the year, Christmas seems to be the one most approelated, hearts are made the more glad, ties seem more true, trim ble seems all to vanjshf the seeming!, forsaken are given a hearty welcoim . But the greatest gift of all is the “home-coming” of those who have j been gone for many months. But jew-I els are not all found In the "hone coming.” Sumo one In the community lias made a struggle worthy of consideration and hearts go together to still buoy him or her on to the unknown future. Communities every year " together, either by surprise or gift to make some special one happy. T’vact Is appreciated by’ all, even the do nor realizes the greatest blessing in it. This spirit led the author to write, “Not what we give, but what w f e share, For the gift without the giver i.bare.” —Lowell. This spirit was manifested Sunday when a number of the members of the Camden Church at Fennville, Ind., and some of the Pleasant Dale people gathered at the home of their elder, Daniel M. Byerly, east of Curryville, while he was at the church and completely surprise “he” and "family,” after which all sat down to the table, well supplied with the fruits of the earth. But they felt the surprise more keenb when he found under his plate a purse containing over a half hundred dol lars. Elder Byerly has been doing a grand and noble work for the Church of the Brethren, although at no little sacrifice. He. a little over two years ago, started to build up the Camden church, a little south of Pennville. Ind., of about five discouraged members, and today the church has a membership of fifty-nine consecrated and influential workers, with a bright outlook for the future. He Is gone nearly all of the time filling appointments at various places, such as Pleasant Dale, Camden. Portland, Landisville, etc. Besides this he is a member of a number of committees, and the one he seems to take the mast interest in is the "home mission” work. Elder Byerly, all his life, has been an influential worker, his desire being net to gain earthly goods, but to try and lift man to a higher elevated plain, to guide, direct, and lead his sheep beyond the dangers of sin. Those present were Samuel L. Driver and family, Peter Fulk and family. Gust Yaney. Misses Nora and Lizzie Norris of Camden, Rev. David Hummer and family, John Taylor and family, J. Miller and family and Mr. Pentecost. All departed, wishing Elder Byerly and family many more such happy events. Forty of the neighbors and friends of Mrs. James T. Moses gave her a surprise call at her home east of the city in celebration of her birthday anniversary, the event being also a farewell party, as the Moses family leaves : next mouth for their new home north ; of the city. There was music and other things to pass a delightful social evening, during which also, an oyster i supper was served. Among the guests from this city Were Mr. and ' Mrs. Ed Moses and Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Frisinger. The very best wishes ] of ail for many happy returns of the day were extended to the celebrant. i i A surprise that was a surprise in ev- ( ery sense of the word was that given . last evening for Miss Lydia Mil- ( ler in honor of her birthday anni- , versary, the affair being planned by ( her father, Martin Miller. The fact that her birthday was last Friday and ( the party several days afterward, tend- , ed to make the surprise more com- > j plete. Miss Lydia was sitting at the ! ( piano, playing, her mind wholly ob- ■ ( livious to other things, when about j twenty of her friends burst upon her. j, Music and games and singing passed ; a pleasant evening. Miss Lydia was presented with a handsome pedestal with the best wishes of her friends. The Menu-ate club and a number of guests, including the Misses Frances ' Dugan, Bessie Boyers, Helen Niblick, ( Leota Bailey, Marie Allison, Fanny ] Frisinger, Sylvia Eaton and Mrs. Ar- j thur Ford, found Wednesday afternoon’s hours delightful ones as they l%usied themselves with their needleiprk at the home of Mrs. J.

At the close of the business period, the hostess served tempting refreshments. o The Christian church held a congregational business meeting Wednesday evening after the regular mid-week prayer service, at which time the reports for the year were read and approved and the election of officers held. E. H. Shoemaker was elected an elder, succeeding Harvey Lee, whose resignation took effect upon his removal to his new home at White Cloud, Michigan. The new board of trustees includes E. 11. Shoemaker. G. T. Burke and A. D. Artman; deacons. A. D. Artman, Joseph Beery and William Darwechter. E. IL Shoemaker, who has served faithfully and efficiently for several years as secretary and treasurer, was re-elected to this office. The report of the treasurer for the past year shows the church in a good healthy condition, the growth during the past year having been remarkable, and especially so during the pastorate of the Rev. J. M. Dawson. Rev. Dawson has been an untiring worker and the church has been greatly upbuilt during his ministry here. A great many new lines of work for the coming year will be mapped out at a meeting to be held next week, and it is expected that the church will have a period of unparalleled growth and prosperity'.

The program of readings and music will be an excellent one, and everyone should make it a point to attend. — o
