Approved by Kaiser If natures supply of Christmas trees gives out as some people have feared it might there will still be Christmas trees as long as a German woman iu this city remains alive Out of green beads wire and tiny waxen ornaments she constructs miniature trees which have been thought pretfy enough to iPiilit BEAD CHIUSTMAS TKEE ble They may grace the court of Ludwig of Bava ria in his time and to amuse the children of Kai ser Wilhelm of Germany That was when the In ventor was living in her native i country Since coming to Amer ica she has made them for various well known peo ple One of the ad vantages of these trees she says is that they are al most indestructi be bent crushed packed into small compass and when they are wanted again it is only neces sary to straighten the branches oul into the original shape When the inventor was a girl fifty five or sixty years ago in Munich she went to one of those schools where German girls are taught to do as her daughter says everything mit the hands It was having to make wreaths out of beads that suggested to her the notion of making bead Christmas trees She set to work and fashioned innumerable tiny loops of green beads each at the end of a long slender wire She bound the loops to gether iu threes making trefoils and the trefoils into branches and the branches into a tapering trunk the trunk being formed of nothing at all but the individual wires massed to gether Then she trimmed the tree with candles and those tiny waxen fig ures which the Germans are adepts at making and lixed it in a pot of sand and melted wax Her parents were quite proud of it o one for th Christmas festivities at court After coming to this country she sent one to President Roosevelt and w grieved and surprised to find that he could

Christmas fr Stocking A Parody fay FRANK J BONNELLE N llow dear to this heart Is the stock ing of- chlldliood when fond recol lection pcesents It to view On Christinas St Nick came from frost - whitened wlldwood with every loved toy which my Infancy knew The wide spreading chimney the sled which stood hy It a horse and some books I remember them all a doll for my sister and baby house nigh It and then the full stocking which liungon the wall the Santa Claus stocking the bountiful stocking the Christmas morn stocking which hung on the wall The well stuffed envelope 1 hailed as a treasure as early that morn ing I opened my eyes and found there the source of an exquisite pleasure the purest and sweetest that nature supplies How ardent I seized It with hands that were glowing and back to my white sheeted bed wTent with all then soon with the emblems of love overflow ing was happy in what to my lot did befall the Santa Claus stocking the generous stocking the Christ mas morn stocking which hung or the wall How sweet through its round open top to explore it as poised on my knee it inclined to my view Not a - hot tempting breakfast could make me ignore it for longer at most than a minute or two And now far removed from the loved situation the tear of regret will intrusively fall as fancy reverts to my youths habitation and sighs oer the stocking which hung on the wall the Santa Claus stocking the plethoric stocking the Christmas morn stocking which hung on the wall But grown people find theres a later sensation as grateful as any they felt long ago It comes when they witness the glad exultation which on Christmas morning their own off spring show And now dear old Santa Claus let me petition your favor for children both large ones and small Bring all the bright hopes to the fullest fruition that rest in each stocking which on the wall the wealthy childs stocking the poor urchins stocking yes 011 every stocking which hangs on the wall hangs MONSTER CHRISTMAS CAKE It

and Allegheny are to benefit through the expenditure of an estate valued at 31000 left by the late George B Nutt The will provides that the es tate shall go to the wife during her lifetime and then is to be divided among his children equally If the Her father who children all die before their mother at was director of the Hofgarten in iu nich showed it to his royal master I her death the estate is to be spent for the purchase of gifts and playthings and King Ludwig immediately ordered for poor children esneciallv rlmso in institutions It was the wish of the decedent that the money be expended in small sums to distribute it over as large an area as possible and benefit as many children as possible Origin of the Christmas Tree There is a legend in Germany that when Eve plucked the fatal
