CHRISTMAS TREES

From ancient days Christmas trees, lighted with
candles, were used in the chancels of English
churches. But it has been put on record that the
introduction of the modern Christmas trees into
England was due to the late duchess of Kent,
grandmother to King Edward VII, who was cred
tied with having brought the custom from Ger
many for the amusement of Queen Victoria when
a little girl at Kensington palace.
The Christmas tree by 1916 was undoubtedly es-
tablished at Windsor; indeed, at that period a per-
feet plantation appears to have sprung up in the
drawing room of the castle. In the newspapers of
the time it is recorded that after dinner, at which
the principal dish was a noble baron of beef weigh
ing 260 pounds, that occupied many hours in roast
ing, and at which the band Of the Scots Fusiliers
discoursed such popular airs as Auber's Bronze
Horse" and selections from Norma" the queen
and the prince, with the royal suite, retired to the
drawing room, where, on tables, were gracefully
displayed several imitation fir trees upwards of
six feet in height, from the branches of which
we're suspended a variety of French bonbons and
numerous elegant presents for the royal visitors
and suites" The trees, we further learn. were
brilliantly illuminated with wax tapers judiciously
placed among the leaves.
1t is not certain, however, that the custom had
not been In use for centuries in rural parts Of
Great Britain.

WHEN CATTLE kNELT in ApoRATloN,

Manytan awe-stricken group has waited in the
chill air to see the cattle fall upon their knees in
alteration at twelve o'clock, the hour when Christ
was wrapped in swaddling clothes. An honest old
Cornwall, England, man, who lived at st, Stephens
Downs, near Launceston, said, towards the close of
the eighteenth century, that he once, with some
others, made a trial of the superstition. Watching
several oxen in their stalls at twelve O'Clock at
night on the Gath of December, they observed the
two Oldest oxen only to fall down upon their knees
and make a cruel moan, like Christian creatures"
There is an old print in the British museum in
which the oxen in the stable near the Virgin and
Child are represented upon their knees, as If in
suppliant posture. This graphic representation is,
perhaps. the origin Of the foregoing superstitious
notion.
But more curious than all is an addition to this
superstition, to the effect that the brute creation
unanimously refused to acknowledge the change
OF style, from old to new, under the calendar.
though on old Christmas day not only would the
bees sing their welcome song but the oxen and
asses would kneel in their stalls in token of hom.
age. It was also said that to spin on Christmas
day caused cattle to go mad and lame.

James Lincoln, eight miles south Of

and the girl was left to care for a baby

Three tramps appeared at the door

When she refused one of them seized
the baby and told the girl he would

tramp and tried to take the baby from
him. He a into the yard and the
girl followed him.
Her cries for help frightened away

succeeded in getting the baby away

ANGRY MOOSE CHARGES AUTO
Giant Animal Becomes Enraged by
the GIaring Se~archIishts on a
Big Touring Machine.

Fort Fairfield, Me.-Mr. and Mrs.
George s.. Orborne Of Limestone, and
Mrs. Frank o. Osborne of this town,
who were returning from Waterville
by automobile, were attacked by a
bull moose in a stretch Of thick woods
near Danforth the other night. The
animal was attracted by the glare of
the headlights, and made a savage
rush for the car. Tt was. only by
opening up the lever and turning on
all the power suddenly that Mr.. Os-
borne managed to avoid the onrush-
ing forest giant.
Mr.. Osborne and the two women
had a pleasant trip through central
Maine from Waterville, and as dusk
approached In the evening the head
lights were turned on. They were
driving at a moderate rate of speed
through the thick woods near Dan
forth when suddenly there was a
crashing sound in the bushes beside
the road. Looking up, they saw the
towering, shaggy form of a bull
moose, who was enraged by the strong
glare Of the lights, which we're full
upon him.
He stood for an instant, and then
launched forward toward the front of
the automobile, where the lights were
shining. Realizing their danger, Mr..
Osborne turned on all the power the
car had in reserve. 1t responded. and
the machine grazed the charging
moose. Not slackening speed for an
instant, Mr.. Osborne shot the car
through the woods road and out then
into the open.
