Why THE LEAVES FALL.--The separation
from the stem, which prccedes the fall of the
leaf, is said to be gradual process, beginning
early in Summer and produced by the con
tinued growth of the stem after the leaf has
attained its full growth which it usually does
in few weeks, the outside of the stem heal
ing over the wound thus formed. The
growth Of the bud at the base Of the leaf still
further separates it, and a gust of wind, or
the contraction of the leaf stalk by frost
caused it to fall. The leaves Of white oak and
some other trees are not thus separated. but
pushed of by the young growth of the next
year.

The Origin and Ancient Observance OF

This evening win begin the loveliest festival in
the Jewish calendar-Shebu0th or the Feast OF
Weeks. This festival derives its name from the
WeeK of Weeks or the seven weeks intervening
between It and the Passover. 1t Is founded on the
Scriptural injunctions given in Exodus, xxxiv %;
Lsvittcus, xiii, and Deuteronomy, xvi. o. The
festival was ordained before the Israeites entered
the Promised Land and was designed as a CON-
mencement harvest festival In Canaan. The Jews
were prohibited from eating either head or
parched corn or green ears Of their new crop, un-
til they had first brought Offering unto the Lord
their God. They were to bring sheaf for weave
Offering unto the priest and the day after the first
Sabbath they were TO begin TO count nifty days, so
that seven Sabbatns might be included in the fes-
tival Other offerings OF lambs, kids and young
bullocks were also made st the same time, and at
gathering OF harvest commenced. The Feast Of
Weeks counted from the time the sickle was frst
put in. In this country and at this time the Feast
Of Weeks marks the dividing line between the
spring and the summer It. derives significance,
also, as being IN Q sense commemorative 1a Of
