How to Adorn Your Mansion.

There is nothing so nice as having good
porch in front of your house, unless, indeed,
it is having the porch built. Mr.. Hiram
Higginbotham, of Manson Street, has just
got new porch completed. 1t is small
affair, not over ten feet long, but it took
seven weeks to build it, The first week
carpenter came to the house, climbed over
the fence, set his tool box down on fine
moss-rose bush, and solemnly made some
measurements, put some marks on the house
and went away. Nobody came for week,
when another carpenter came up with pair
of TRUSTEES and an armful of saws and things.
He carried the TRUSTEES into the front hall,
hung his saws up on the hat rack, looked va.
cantly around and mysteriously disappeared.
That evening Mrs. Higginbotham rather snap
pisbly asked Mr.. H. if he intended to get the
men to work on that porch He sighed
gloomily, and said they would get started
about next week. Along toward the middle
of the week third carpenter came up, jerked
down the saws, planted the trestles in the
middle of the Oldest Miss Higginbotham's
verbena bed and began to saw furiously.-
Two or three days after, laborer came and
dug place for the masons to lay the wall,
and threw dirt all over the gravel walk, and
then man came and emptied CARLOAD
of brick on the tulip bed. Then the mason
came and threw mortar all over that part of
the township, getting little of it every
where except between the bricks. That was
the only safe place. Finally the lumber for
the porch arrived and was hurled madly over
the fence, blotting out the last traces of a
garden in the front yard, and sending the
grass plat into partial eclipse. Then there
was business. The entire yard was two feet
deep in shavings and sawdust. and eight.
penny nails permeated the very hash. One
morning Mr.. Higginbotham opened the front
door, and was Immediately afterward dis
agreeably surprised to learn that short lad
der was leaning against that door with car
penter and tool box on the top round. No
body seemed to enjoy the consequent Incl
dent so much as the tool box. The carpen-
ter and Mr.. Higginbotham held brief con-
versation, in which their remarks, though
6tful, were earnest, and Mr.. H. went down
to his Office, shaking chisels, bits, gouges,
straightedgeS, and nails of various denomi-
nations out of his hair and sleeves. The
porch is done now. One day the carpenters
scraped up everything portable about the
premises and slid away. The porch stands
little awry, is higher at one end than at
the other, and stands about three inches from
the house, and the roof leaks; but the Hig-
giDbothams are satisfied and don't want any
repairs made. The yard looks as if Mr..
Higginbotham had been pasturipg three or
four streaks of chain lightning in it for a
week or two, and they had been unusually
FESTIVE and prone to gouge things. But these
are trifes compared with the comfort of hay
ing new porch.-PeOria Review.

Longevity of Trees.

The Wadsworth oak, at Geneseo, New
York, is said to be five centuries old, and
twenty-seven feet in circumference at the
base. The massive, slow-growing live-oakS
of Florida are worthy of notice, on account
of the enormous length of their branches
Bartram says:
81 have stepped fifty PAGES in straight
line from the trunk of one of these trees to
the extremity of the limbs.
The oaks of Europe are among the grand
est of trees. The Cowthorpe oak is seventy
eight feet in circuit at the ground, and is at
least one thousand eight hundred years old.
Another, in DOrsetshire, is of equal age. In
Westphalis is hollow oak which was used
as place of refuge in the troubled times of
medieval history.
The great oak at Saintes, in southern
France, is ninety feet in girth, and has been
ascertained to be two thousand years old.
This monument, still or recently furnishing,
commentaries period which antedates the
first campaign of Julius Caesar!
The Cypress of Montezuma," near the
City of Mexico, is forty-fve feet in girth,
and its age is estimated at upward of twenty
centuries. In the church-yard of Santa
Maria del Tule, in the Mexican State Of
Oaxaca, is cypress which measures one
hundred and twelve feet in circuit, and is
without sign of decay" At Palenque are
expresses growing among the ruins of the
old city, whose streets they may have shaded
in the days of its pride. By the u8uaI
methods the writer in the North american
Reuiew calculates the age of the cypress at
Santa Maria del Tule at five thousand one
hundred and twenty four years, or, if it grew
as rapidly during its whole life as similar
trees grow when young, it would still be foul
thousand and twenty-four years old.-POpw
