NCE upou a time two little cau
dles lay side by Ride In a big
bos. Both were pure white.
Said oue: "1 wonder what
will become of us. Do you think we
could be meant for a Christmas tree?"
For you must know that to be put on
a Christmas tree Is the best possible
thing that can happeu to a caudle.
"Of course not," said the other, who
was cross. "If we are meant for a
Christmas tree it will be for some
shabby little children see If It Isn't."
"If we are." said the first, "I'll shine

"Didn't I tell you what would hap

whisper.
"Yes, but wait." replied the other.
"Just shine your brightest all the

"I won't," snapped the cross one.
