A Frieze of Pine Branches.

The newly married ones, who had
spent their June honeymoon in the
Catskills, dreaded the return to their
tiny New York apartment. happy as
they had been in choosing its fur
nishings. Cozy and snug as it was
going to be in winter, it was going
to be appallingly close and hot in
summer, especially when filled with
all the new pictures and china and
silver and vases and crooks and-but
you know the list.
And so some way must be found,
thought the bride. to make the little
apartment seem as simple and cool
and woodsy as the cabin they were
leaving in the mountains. They must

CITY A VERITABLE BEEHIVE
chungking, In China, Less Than q
Mile Square, Has Population OF
Six Hundred Thousand.

Twenty-four days spent In Chung
king were enough fully to satisfy us,
writes w. l.. Hall In Asia Magazine. Six
hundred thousand human beings
crowded into space less than one
mile square; the city built at the
junction OF two muddy rivers on a
solid rock with no possible chance for
drainage; reeklng fog hanging ever
like a pail over II all; smells so
strong they almost strangle one; SELL
ers Of meats and vegetables and car
rlers Of putrescent refuse crowdlng
every street; men in constant streams,
like ants, forever entering and leav-
ing the gates; the drone OF myriad
voices almost driving one mad-such
is the city OF Chungklng.
Early this morning we started out
through the narrow stone paved
streets, on the way to our boat. out
into the drizzllng rain we fled Down
flights Of stone steps the cortege
rambled, without apparent aim or des-
tlnation.
We passed through the gate and en-
countered stranger sights and strong
er smells in the suburbs OF the city,
which hangs on the side cliff over the
river. Down the muddy banks we
slipped with ease and picked our way
through numberless boat loads OF
varied commodities, until we located
our craft by the small flag at the
masthead.
