Number Both Doors.

The golden rule, "Do unto others as
you would have them do unto you," is
violated in petty fashion in New York
which is intensely irritating. Many peo-
pie when finishing their houses neglect
to put the numbers on properly, with
the result that strangers in search of a
particular residence wander up and
down the se1ni-lighted street cursing
volubly. This absolute neglect Of the
law, however, is not as irritating as the
practice Of painting the name on the
outer door and emitting it over the inner
door Until 10 o'clock the greater num-
Der of storm doors>stand open.
The light from the hall chandelier
Eliminates the inner transom, but the
outer one is a dull blank, on which moth
ing can be read. You stare at what you
know are figures, finding yourself utterly
unable to distinguish them, and you are
reduced to the ignominious course of
ringing the bell and asking what the
number is, which invariably produces
on the face of the servant who appears
an expression of conviction not fatter-
ing to your sobriety. Good Christians
there be who put the number on both
transoms- their homes be exalted
and their examples imitated!-New York
