the lighthouse windows. Yes; six
noses. for even Baby Deb was finally
affected. and. though she did not know
the least thing about the weather. she.
too would press her little nose against
the glass In a most alarming way, as
II she thought that pressure was the
only effective thing.
1t took some time for Baby Deb to
realize the Importance Of having a
goose for Christmas. but when she had
grasped the idea she became an entllu-
siast on the subject. She explained
the matter TO her dolls and was par
ticglarIy explicit with stulpin, with
whom, indeed, she held very elaborate
and almost painful conversations.
One thing became very certain.
There was very little prospect Of clean
weather within week, and it lacked
assflly three days OF Christmas. The
others gloomily gave up hope, but not
so did Baby Deb The truth was she
had a plan, and you know when one
has a plan one has hope too.
Mamma Stoughton had only recently
been having series of talks with
Baby Deb on the important question
OF prayer, and it had occurred to Baby
Deb that the goose was good sub

they thought that after ALL so long as
Baby Deb was there it would be

So they were happy for moment until
the thought came that roast goose was
good on Christmas even with Baby
Deb, and then they looked dismayed
again.
However, when Papa stoughton ex-
planned how it was they saw It as
plainly as he did, and so they made
no more complaint Only Tom fell
a-thinking, and when the others saw
what he was doing they did the same,
the difference being that Tom was

The Foolish Railroads.

The stage fare from Huntsville to

This stage carried the mail, and it had
to go When the roads were so mud
dy horses could not pull the stage a
double yoke of oxen took their places.
1t was slow travelling, but they got
through. The steamboat fare from
Glasgow to st. Louis in the early fif-
ties was ST. That included stateroom
and meals, and If the boat was held
up Il week or rwo on IL sand bar the
accommodation went on without eX-
ira charge. The steamboat owners
never believed the railroads could sue
ceSsfully compete with them. The way
they looked at it people wouldn't be
willing to travel 100 or 200 miles tied
down to one seat in small car when
they might be enjoying the freedom of
a big and handsomely furnished boat.

The Eye on the Red Flag.

There are many odd bits of bunting
unfolded to the breeze in New York
harbor. but the oldest of all perhaps
is the ensign that flutters from the
staff of Il little craft that rounds the
Battery sea wall promptly at noon
every day and then disappears up the
North river. 1t is Il triangular flag
with n flaming red background, from
which stands out in bold relief a great
cyclopean eye. Inside the pilothouse
is man in blue coat and brass but
tons, who views the water front and
passing craft through long telescope.
This is the supervisor of the harbor
His duties are to see that the regula-
tions are observed in the East river,
the upper bay and the Hudson river,
that the channels are kept free of OBJ
structions and that the city's docks
and ferries are being looked after as
they should be. AS soon as he steps on
board his vessel the unique ensign is
raised. 1t signifies to all nautical folk:
'I've got my eye on you. Watch out"
