At dinner party given lately in
Paris one lady was remarked above
all others for the elegance of her fig

During the mauvais quart d'heure be-
fore dinner she was surrounded by a
host Of admirers, and one less bashful
than the rest ventured to offer her the
flower from his buttonhole' 1t was
accepted but as the princess robe"
worn by the graceful creature was
laced behind, it was necessary to
fasten the flower to the front Of her
dress with a pin. The operation was
successfully performed. and the fair
lady was led in to dinner, by the
donor of the flower. They were hard
ly seated when he heard a curious
sound like the gentle signing of the
wind, and on turning toward his part
ner he saw with horror that the lovely
figure was getting small By degrees
and beautifully less" The rounded
form had disappeared before the soup
was over, and long before the first en-

NEGROES TO RETURN
TO AFRICA.

Negroes of Oklahoma, Kansas
and Missouri in particular are pre-
pairing to receive Chief A lbert Sam
of the Akin tribe, Ashante, West
Africa, who is coming to Boley,
Okla, strictly negro town in the
Creek Indian country, with an in
vitation from the chiefs of all the
tribes in Ashante for the negroes
of America to locate in that coun.
try.
Chief Sam comes in answer to
queries by negroes of Oklahoma
who have been contemplating re-
moval to Africa. He called Il
conference of the chiefs, and they
voted to invite the black men of
America back to their old home,
and intrusted to Chief Sam the
invitation delivery.
In each of the twelve tribes six
ty-four acres of land have been set
aside on which the American
negroes are asked to build modern
cities and any unoccupied farm
lands are also given TO the Ameri'
cans so that they may serve as an
object lesson to the tribes there.

While travelling in Mexico the
Rev. Edmund A. Neville, one of
the most widely known mission
aries in the world, died on Nov. 2
at Saltillo, the capital of the State
of Coahuila. Mr.. Neville had cir
cled the globe many times in the
interests of the Episcopal Mission
AIRY Board. It is probable that no
missionary was ever subjected to d
more startling experience than that
of Mr.. Neville in 1892, when, as a
member OF a party of six English
missionaries, he saw his five COM
panions eaten by cannibals and
was himself held captive for fifteen
months on small island off the
coast of New Guinea, The Incl.
dent attracted worldwide attention
at the time, and until Mr.. Neville
was rescued, warships of many
nations touched at port towns in
New Guinea and sought informa-
ton regarding the party. He
finally managed to attract the at
tention of a party of sailors from a
Dutch gunboat which passed the
shore of the island upon which he
was detained and he was returned
to the United States.
After the experience in New
Guina Mr.. Neville went to Oxford
and completed his studies, and for
several years devoted himself to
missionary work in China, Japan,
Singapore and Central America.
\ vocabulary of nearly two thous-
and words, which he gathered in
New Guinea while among the can
nibals, has been of great service tC

worked among the natives.

The Rev. Hudson Stuck, Episco
pal Archdeacon of Alaska, who
last summer distinguished himself
by reaching the summit of Mount
Mckinley, was presented few
days ago with motor boat, by
the members of st. Thomas's
Church, New Yo.k. DR.. Stuck
was in New York as deputy from
Alaska to the General Convention
When word reached him that a
boat. which he had obtained after
many delays and at great expense,
had been lost with all on board.
The craft was carrying coal from
the mouth of the Yukon to Point
Hope, as the region is entirely de-
void of fuel. DR.. Stuck said in
one of his addresses that the great
est difficulties of the missionaries
in Alaska, and especially among
the Indians of Yukon Valley, were
not the cold weather, the loneliness
or the ignorance of the people,
but the unprincipled white settlers
who do all sorts of mean things to
, the Indians, from selling them bad

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas is coming; but it
means different things to different
people. TO maLy it means great
worry and anxiety us to the kind
of gifts to make to their friends
and to spare the money needed to
purchase the same. 70 others, it
brings concern as to the gifts they
expect to receive from their friends.
There are still others who are not
able to make presents and do not
expect to receive any. To the lat
ter the Christmas time is great
disappointment. The display of
the rich and the impoverishment of
those of smaller means at such a
time is much to be deplored. The
rich give TO those who are mott in
need of what they get, and oN ers
make themselves poor by giving
presents which they can not really
afford TO buy. The children Of the
rich IRE made selfish and gfSedy
by the lavish gifts of their friehds
