DECEIT
A Christmas Story
By CLARISSA MACKIE

On Christmas eve the wind whistled
cheerily down the avenue sending the
lightly fallen snow in glittering show
ers in the faces of passersby.
Every pedestrian carried one or more
paper parcels, and many were laden
with holly wreaths or pots of Christ
mas blooming plants.
Mrs. Vinton sat alone in her draw
ing room looking at the busy street
scene. Her big chair was drawn
close to the rich lace curtains, and she
parted the draperies with thin white
hand on which sparkled many dia
monds. Her beautiful old face was
very sad
There had been no Christmas in
Mary Vinton's heart or home since
Rosamond, her only daughter. had
eloped with a pehniless lieutenant in
the French army Mrs Vinton had not
forgiven, and Rosamond's speedy re-
pentance and plea for forgiveness had
brought nothing but the cold silence Of
deeply injured mother. Mr.. Ninton
had been dead for many years, and
his widow was>very rich.
Every Christmas Mrs Vinton chose
gifts for her large circle of friends and
they were duly sent, and when she
had received gifts in return she had
looked at them listlessly and badP Jo
anna OFT, her confidential maid and
almost friend, so many years had Jo-
anna served her, to put the gifts away
until the new year should dawn. At
that time the stinging tenderness Of
Christmas memories would be dulled
and she could write graceful little notes
of thanks.
Beyond the giving and receiving Of
gifts there were no signs of Christmas
In the Vinton home
On this Christmas eve, FIVE years aft
er the marriage of Rosamond. Mrs.
Vinton had evinced some interest in

MAKING A CITY BEAUTIFUL
Plenty of Trees Not the Only Essen tiai to Good Efsscts-Straisht
 Streets Wrong. s.2ss

When art will make our streets as beautiful as the woods and as eleyat ing as the mountainsides, then it vii. be a pleasure and rest, and not . weight upon the spirit to come from the open country into the city Sc sang a great writer and Q great ob server Though this means, primarily the carrying out of the writer's hobby fully planted streets-there is much more to be done before we have beau tiful streets.
 Straight streets in residence dis tricts, especially among the hills. are largely wrong, though if many were contour lines we might easily endure a few straight ones. In following a straight street we are impressed with it's monotony except it be well planted and fanked with fine gardens. On streets of series Of graceful curves the scene is eyer-charging, and we view both street and garden scenery from every possible angle, thereby get ting all variations obtainable. It al- most constitutes a crime to cut can yoas through hills, for it will ever be a source of regret to those of good taste, clear down to the end of time.
 Nevertheless, we are progressing in this respect. for many large subdi- visions of late have been laid out in conformity to the contour Of the hills. This means, usually, that landscape engineers, rather than civil engineers only, are planning this new work Wider parkways are also prevailing still another assurance that the land scape gardener and horticulturist is not without influence, even in cold blooded business deals.

Women Travellers Expect Much.

But for an interesting, discriminat. ing and all-round exacting proposition the lady patron is doubtless the win ner. She must always have a parlor floor room, with bath, fronting the street; plenty Of closet room. The room must be large enough to accom- modate a couple of box-cars she calls trunks. She will use three times as many towels as a man; keep the bell nops in perpetual motion to answer her calls. and make more complaints about the temperature of her room in one day than a man would in month

STRONG PLEA FOR PARKWAY
Los Angeles Newspaper Condemns a Proposed Plan as Not in Inter
 ests of Economy.

W H. Humphreys of the Los An geles board of public works has gone on record as faForing narrower drive ways in strictly residential districts. and would lessen the street width and widen the pathways of many now ex- istent. This from a purely economic view of the matter, says the Examiner of that city. Narrow streets cost less 70 build and less to maintain than wide ones and when there are to be. or are paved such initial cost and up keep is no small expense.
 But there is another side to the question, the esthetic view of the matter How may We have beautiful streets with but a narrow green rib bon along each side from Is to 3e inches wide? Such a paucity of park. way does not in the least influence the appearance of the street. All that may be said for it is that street trees may be planted therein, though they can not remain in vigorous health anG beauty except for their youthful years It may be possible for a tree to sur fINc lOi llclAS ySoI uIIdSI oACA l1oA V conditions, but what about them ir 50 CT 75 years, at the time when they should be most impressive. The trunks will then have filled any or dinary parkway from curb to walk Shall we then cut them out or shall we cut a large half-circle out of the cement sidewalk and also narrow the driveway three or more feet on eacE side by moving each curb toward tho middle of the street? Would it not bt better to start right and have fine viz orous, healthy trees for all time and rest assured of their enduring cen turies, to the continued Identification of our city? When shall we correc! admittedly wrong conditions? Do fl i now.

ARE BLO0DH0UNDS A MYTH!

A man at Wymore, Neb.. keeps a
kennel of bloodhounds to train bank
robbers. Within fifty miles of Wy
more is the rendezvous of a gang of
bank and postoffice robbers that has
terrOrized western Kansas and Ne.
braska for years. Every time there
is a robbery in that section the Wy
more bloodhounds are put on the
trail. One does not call to mind an
instance in which the dogs ever
caught the robbers. A country edi-
tor recently remarked that blood
hounds had never been known to
catch anything since they chased
Eliza. And she escaped on the ice. :
In Birmingham. Ala, pack of
so-called bl0odhounds is kept to trail
criminals. Recently they were put
on the trail OF a fleeing negro muir
Gerer, whose tracks were partly Wis
ible to the eye; but the dogs sat on
the ground and bayed to the moon.
A citizen said:
why, | used to raise fOxhounds in
Georgia. and during the final thre,
months training ! couldn't keep the
puppies rom running a negro's trail
tc save my life without beating them.

dogs barking furiously at the cabin

FLIES HATE BLUE.

Next time you are having your
walls tinted you will be wise to
choose colors that flies dislike. Some
rooms seem infested with flies. while
others are comparatively free from
them. The secret lies in the general
color of the room.
The favorite color of flies is green.
A doctor who recently made expert
ments with flies prepared a box on
which he pasted squares of paper of
the same size, but different col0rs.
On the square of green paper there
were no fewer than eighteen flies
This was closely followed by a rose
colored square with seventeen. A fter
that came clear yellow, dark gray
and white.
The least attractive colors to the
flies were lem0n-yellow, dark brown
and blue. On papers Of this color
only one fly had settled. Plenty of
attractive wall papers can be chosen
from these three colors. and you will
be rejoicing at your freedom from
dies, while your neXt-door neighbor
has her walls covered with them, be-
cause her wall paper is green.-Ex
