IN A GERMAN HOSPITAL.
Where the Christmas Angel Visits
Suffering Children.

Suffering Children.
In one of the German hospitals of our
country Is observed Il custom quite In
accordance with the beautiful senti.
ment the Germans weave about Christ
mas.
Christmas belongs 10 the children
everybody knows that-but it belongs
to them in IL deeper, more beautiful
sense than Everybody" knows. One
is reminded OF it, however, if he wit
nesses such a scene as is portrayed in
this hospital on Christmas eve. One of
the nurses dresses in Il long, soft flow
Ing robe of white, bearing in her hand
fir bough covered with snow. The
snow Is cotton sprinkled with diamond
dust. This is the Christmas angel.
The children are told of the gentle
visitor and wait in their little cots.
When darkness is outside they hear the
strains of sweet music in the distance
The nurses are singing Christmas car
OILS, and the sounds come through open
doors. Then the Christmas angel
comes. She goes to each little cot,
bending over each little form to listen
to the whispered secrets. Each one
tells her what he wants on Christmas
day. Then, with a tender word, she
passes out, and TO the sound of the car
OILS they all fall asleep-those who can
slip away from pain.
When the day dawns all the children
are taken into the kindergarten. Some
are carried, some are rolled, and some
can walk. Sure enough each finds
there what he asks for-drums and
dolls and trumpets and books. On q
long, low table Is plate for each one,
filled with candies and queer little Ger
man cakes. On one wall is tableau of
the Nativity made Of small wax figures,
and a painting on the wall completes
the perspective of hills and shepherds
and the guiding star. Hanging from
the wall in the center of the ward Is a
large hoop covered with laurel. At in
tervals around it are set lighted can
dies. 1t is suspended from the ceiling
by four wide ribbons.
In the fever ward, where the con-
tagious diseases are cared for, the little
patients of course cannot leave, but
they have their Christmas too. Two
large, fine spruce trees stand in each
end of the ward, brilliantly illuminat-
ed by tiny, many colored electric lights.

A LOST ILLUSION.
Sadie's Santa Claus Was Only john

ny smiths Papa.
The loss of part of Santa Claus dis
guise at a Christmas Sunday school en-
tertainment and the consequent dis
covery that "he was only man after
all" caused one little girl at least
acute distress.
Santa Claus was one of the cherished
ideals of Sadie's childhood, and Sadie
parted with her ideals reluctantly She
was sure she heard the reindeers seam
per over the roof every Christmas eve
and the fact that even the gas logs
were pretty tight fit for the chimney
did not dispel the Illusion that somehow
Santa Claus, despite his corpulence.
managed to slip through the tiny slit
with his pack and leave presents on
tree and in stocking.
So when she saw on the Sunday
school platform his hoary head and
beard, fur trimmed coat, fat stomach
and short legs-and, above all, hisspack
she greeted the familiar figure with
enthusiastic applause. Unfortunately
for Sadle's peace of mind, however, the
hoary hair and beard became entangled
in the branches of the Christmas tree
when Santa Claus began to hang up the
contents of his pack, and when he
withdrew his head, sans hirsute adorn-
ment, he revealed the familiar features
Of prominent churchman. Then the
assemblage was startled by desolate
wall that suddenly rent the air.
"Oh," sobbed Sadie, there amt any
Santa Claus! He's only Johnny Smiths

CATTLE HAD THE RABIES.
Farmers Who Removed Hides Are
Taking Pasteur TIE atm ent.

1onia, Mich.-A strange case of the
rabies has been brought to light in
Berlin township, where two COWS on
Tracy Lowry's farm died recently. It
is supposed the animals were bitten
BY Tracy Lowry's dog, which disap-
peared three weeks ago.
The dog was not known to have at
tackled the COWS, and Randy Taylor,
veterinarian from Saranac, was called
to doctor the cattle. The two cows
died. Bruce and Earl Lowry then
took the hides off,
Finally they began to fear hydro
phobia, and a few days ago left for
Ann Arbor, taking the brains of the
cattle with them. Next day a bad
case of rabies was reported, and Bruce
and Earl are both infected, Earl hav-
ing had a sore hand when handling
the carcasses.
Tracy Lowry also went to Ann Ar
Dor to take the Pasteur treatment, and
there is much apprehension over the
situation.
