Not to Disturb Neighbor, Through

. Mother .and I had just moved to a
new flat In a row where the entrances
were all similar. The first evening
when I came home I passed our en
trance without observing the number.
Finding the outside door open I ran
up to the second floor, tried my key,
'and could not nnlbck the door. Then
T knocked and, hearing no response,
tthook the door violently. When a
strange tnnn In a dressing gown
opened the door I apologized pro
fusely.
The. next evening when I ran up the
stairs, tried my key, and heard a
man's heavy tread approaching I had
sense enough to realize my mistake
and miidc a dive for the outside door.
Jnsf then the man's ? voice callc-d
over the rail : "Who Is it?" ,1

and I never did.? Chicago Tribune. \
\ Undecisive Character.
A pKv>*m of undecisive character
woiulers how ait the eml/arrassments

aetly in his 'wily, to place him Just In
that one situation for which he Is
peculiarly unadaptfed, hut In which he
Ih also willing to think no other man
could have acted with facility or con
tldence. Incapable of setting up a
Arm purpose on the basis of things
as they are, he Is often employed In
vain speculations on some different
aupposable state of things, which
would have saved him from all this
perplexity and Irresolution. He- thinks
what a determined course he could
luive pursued If his talents, his health,
his age had been different; If he had
been acquainted wlfh some one person
sooner, If his frfends were, In this
or the other point, different from what
th6y are; or If fortune had showered
Iter favors on hliu. And he gives him*
self as much license to complain as.
If all , these advantages had been
among the right* of his nativity, but
refused, by a malignant or capricious
fate, to his life. ? Rev. John Foster.
Bee* Took Carload of Sugar.
Near the station of Fontninehleau,
France, a carload of crystallized sugar
was held up and within four days the
entire load had disappeared Ip spite of
the guards.
Not fur from the station of Avon
there are larjre bee farms, and while
r he bees covered the cnr In swarms no
one ? supposed that they could carry
away the crystallised sugar. Nor could
they. Hut Industriously and Ingeniously
they betook themselves to nearby ba
sins and fountains and carried drops
of water to melt th?? sugar! The damp
ened sugar form?*d a sirup that was
easily 'transported to thA hives.

DECORATING FOR CHRISTMAS
Molly Wreathe Help to Make the Home
Cheerful ? How to Keep the' Tree
. Bright and Green.
It Is not Christmas without a big,
gorgeous, glittering Christmas tree and
plenty of greens hung wherever pos
sible.
Of course you have your tree chosen
and ready for its great purpose. When
it's time or cutting, invite your
boy and girl friends to help, and
make the bringing In of the Christ
mas tree a real ceremony. In Eng
land this Is one of the big events for
young and old.
The kllid of tree to bo'usod' depends
upon where you live. Red cedar, white
pine, spruce, flr or hemlock nre all
good. To keep the tree bright and
green set It in a deep bucket or low
bfl|urel, brace and fill the space be
' tween the tree and bucket or barrel
with coal. . Then pour In water until
tliereeeptacle is full.
Every home should be decorated at
Christmas. Gather holly for wreaths,
make ropes of laurel, and have sev- .j
oral bowls Ml led with pqtft ridge ber
ries. Mistletoe is beautiful and can
be found as a growth on the top of
sweetgums, live oaks and other de
ciduous trees In the territory south
of New Jersey, southern Indiana and
Missouri, and In Oregon and northern
California. Other fine plants for dec
orating are Christmas fern and poly
pody. Rlack alder ? and ilex or Ink
berry can 'also be used. Every district
has some special green that is adapt
able for decorating. In gathering
greens, never destroy the plants; cut
aud pick carefully and the growth will
not be Injured. # .
