1T is the Feast of Lanterns" ex-
planned the great Stork. Are you
hungry" And he bought raw nsn,
bamboo shoots and seaweed jelly
for the little bunny and rice ana
white beans for himself.
After they had watched the people
until midnight, the Stork led the
bunny boy down to the beach from
which thousands of little toy boats
filled with nice things to eat. and
lit UP by lanterns, were sent floating
out to sea. And when all the boaIs
but one, were launched, and the peo-
pie had all gone away, the Stork said:
"Would you like to go for a sail. This
one little boat is mine"
"Will you go with me?" asked the
little rabbit, anxiously.
certainly answered the Stork.
Leaving the rickshaw on the sand.
they both got into the boat and SAIL
ed away. Away from Nagasakt In
Japan, out on the ocean wide and
blue. And when Little Jack Rabbit
woke up in the morning there was no
land to be seen, only the blue water.
All the pretty lanterns had burned
out, all except the one in the bow of
the little boat. 1t looked just like the
morning star. thought the bunny hoy
as he rubbed his eyes and looked at
the Stork standing fast asleep on
one leg with his head under lis
wing.
Gently blowing out the little Ian
tern, for he thought it might be USE
full when night came again, the bunny
boy ate persimmon and an orange,
and by and by, the stork woke up.
1 guess he had become very tired
with pulling the rickshaw the day be-
, fore.
All of a sudden. the rain began to
fall from black cloud overhead and
the Stork opened Japanese parasol,
and in the next story, you shall hear
what happened after that.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, ONE AND
ALL

Merry Christmas to one and all.
Everyone wishing everyone full
measure of Christmas cheer on this,
the only day in all the year when the
doing of this is regarded a matter Of
course. . -
No other day in all the calendar so
frausht with good will.
And this the Gay, which is in
sepa.ab.e from the story Of one
horn in 4 stable manager to die in
agony, cruCified on o cross and
wearing Il crown If thorns.
Foasting and merry making. and
giving Of gifts on day commences rat :
ins the birth of the Christ into a
life of sacrifice and suffering.
Why, for nineteen hundred years,
has this conception of fitness, these
ways of celebrating the anniversary
AiNS oSSiiOu llluI IN
stead the occasion should be one of
mourning?
1t does not answer this question to
say that the observance was adapt-
ed from the pagans or that it was
done to make popular a religious he
lief. This would not account for
the persistence of the custom for I'll
these generations.
If it were thought the birth Of
Jesus ushercd into the world life
that really had proved a failure, IN
stinct as we'll as reason would have
reacted against the incongruity of
celebrating it with merry making, for
making it a special occasion of joy
Ito the children.
And the world which believes the
life of Christ was not failure is by
no means confined to those CT the
Christian faith, nor is the observance
of Christmas.
Failure? Why, nowhere in all his
tory is there record of a life and
ideals credited to it that have con-
ctributed SO much. to genuine hap
piness on this earth, SO much of
hope for the future, so much of COM
prehension of the priceless reward of
service, in which publicans and sin
ners are included!
Merry Christmas, one and all.

Twenty dollars in gold was the
Christmas gift of Mayor o. E. Frost
to each of the IS men in his employ
at Mathews Bros, today, a gift much
appreciated. This is the second year
that this generous gift has been
made. Fifteen hundred dollars in
gold was paid out.
At the r. p. Hazard Company,
which has owned the local shoe fac
tory but six months. each employee
who had been there all that time re-
ceived two and half days average
pay, while those who have worked
less than that time received proper
tionately The amount thus given
away was about $500. and the gift
was a surprise and deeply appreciat-
ed. Mr.. Hazard has had this Gus
tom at his Gardiner plant, and had
the local plant been in his possession
a year the gift would have been twice
as large.

New Italy History
Recalled by Death

Sydney, n. s. W., Nov. l6 "a. p.
by MaiD-The recent deaths of two
Italian pstriarchs on the Ricnmon
river, which flows through the ie:llle
north coast country of New Soutk
Wales. recalls the history of New
Italy, as the Italian colony is termed.
In 1879 the Marquis de Ray had
scheme for the colonization OF New
France. the free colony OF Port
Breton, in Oceania," situated on the
island of New Ireland, $50 miles
north of New Guinea. The climate
and fertility of the soil were pictured
in glowing colors Italian emigrantS
were offered houses and land On
favorable terms.
The Italians chartered the steamer
India and in July. 1880. 300 of them
left for the supposed paradise. Tie
severity of the voyage and the
wretched condition of the provisions
caused 48 deaths en- route. Port Bre-
ton was reached in October, and
there it was found that no prepara-
tons had been made to receive the
colonists. Dwellings were lacking;
the heat was, frightful; food ran
short.
For four months the Italians used
the India as boarding house. At
length, disguised, they prevailed on
the captain TO land them In New
South Wales. In February, 1881, the
India left Port Breton, but stress
of weather and shortage of food
forced her to put into .Noumea, New
Caledonia. where the French con-
demned her as unseaworthy and
ordered her sold. The emigraflts re-
fused to stay in New Caledonia, and
the French government provided
them with passage to Sydney.
Eventually the travellers establish
ed themselves on the Richmond
river. and by 1885 they had become
an INDUSTRIOUS and thriving COM
munal colony.
For their skill in vine growing and

You remember in the last story
that Little Jack rabbit in the rick

the little wind from the blue ocean
began to sing:

And the little, queer boats that

Are rocking and rolling and nod

And strange flowers nod from the

And the little birds sing from the
