Col. A. P. Buck of Foxcroft. has re-
ceived some interesting curios from his
brother. Hon. Alfred Buck, the United
States minister to Japan. One is a
huge fish-like flag made from a pecu-
liar material and is hollow. This is to
be flung from a pole like a flag and the
wind initiates the whole fish which is
about ten feet long giving it an ex-
tremely life-like appearance. This NJ.
Buck writes, is raised over house in
honor of the birth of son. He also
sent two rabbit skins, the animal be-
ing peculiar to the mountains of Japan
and the islands adjacent. In his letter
he stated that the social season would
soon close with a banquet given by tbs
prince imperial.

There is sometimes more wit in the
application to the business in hand of
words already chosen for another
purpose than In the invention Of an
appropriate phrase. Bishop Whlpple,
according to The Church News, loved
to tell this story:
A devout colored preacher, whose
heart was aglow with missionary
zeal, gave notice to his congregation
that in the evening an offertory
would be taken for missions and
asked for liberal gifts. A selfish, well
to do man in his congregation said
to him before the service;
Eyer gwine to kill dis church eff
yer goes on saying give, give. No
church can stan it. Yer gwine to
kill It,"
After the sermon the colored min
lister said to the people:
Brother Jones told me I was gwine
to kill dis here church eff / KEEP
a-askin yer to give, but, my brethren,
churches doesn't die dat way. IF
anybody knows of church dat died
cause it's been givin too much to de
Lord, I'll be very much obliged eff
my brother will tell me whar dat
church is, for I'ze gwine to visit 1t,
and I'll climb on de walls Of dat
church, under de light OF de moon,
and cry, Blessed am de dead dat die
In de Lord"
