A most melancholy picture of Pales-
tine is given by recent traveller. For
ests are fast disappearing, rich plains of
garden soil lie uncultivated, domestic
animals are almost unknown, and the
villages are nothing but mud huts in an
untidy condition. This is doubtless large
ly the result of excessive taxation. Ev-
erything is taxed-trees, COWS, horses,
every kind of garden vegetable, eggs,
ETC.; and when, after years of bad har-
vests, there comes a prospect of album
dant crops, double tax is imposed.

1t was about the size of large hickory
nut, an inch high, and constructed of
cotton and hair. 1t contained two little
white eggs about the size of common

Professor Max Muller lately sent to

skirt texts in Japan. Life" said he, in

1t is said that American beef and NUT
ton are better and cheaper in London,
Liverpool and Glasgow than they are
here. This surely ought not so to be. 1t
is very well to send an excellent quality
OF meat to foreign markets, but home
consumers should not be defrauded there
by. Several causes of the inferiority of
our meat have been mentioned: it is said
that the best animals in our livestock
yards are exported to Europe, the second
quality shipped to Cuba, and home con-
sumers have to put up with what is left.
However this may be, there is no doubt
but that there is great difference in
flesh of animals which have been hur-
ried from distant places and driven di-
rectly to slaughter, and that of those
which are first rested and fattened. The
high price of meat is due, in great
measure, to the numerous middle-men,
who all come in for share of the profits.
A speculator in the far West buys herd,
and sells the cattle to another Speculation
in Chicago, who again sells them to some
Eastern market, whence they go to the
wholesale dealer, and from him to the
retail dealer; and the one who wants to
eat the beet pays each his profit.

Two Cinnamon, probably too ignorant
of the English language to know wheth-
er or not there was an + in June, sat
down in Boston oyster saloon recently,
and called for "stews." The by-standers,
who rather expected to see them draw
chopsticks from their pockets and fall to
in oriental style, were disappointed, for
the Cinnamon used the ordinary appli-
ances, though awkwardly. But their
notions about the way in which oysters
should be eaten were rather peculiar.
Ignoring the pepper and salt, they took
the little dishes OF green pickles and up
set them into the stews. Then with a
fork they harpooned alternately an oyster
and piece of pickle until there was
nothing but liquid left. At this point a

Of our points of punctuation, the per-
iod is the most ancient. The colon was
introduced about 1885; the comma about
1921, and the semi-colon about 1870. In
Sir Philip Sidney'f Arcadia, published
in 1887, they all appear, as well as the
note of interrogation, asterisk and par
entheses The ancients do not appear to
haue had any syssem of punctuation, and
doubtless employed arbitrary signs to
distinguish the parts of discourse.

NJ. Fautrat has been convinced, by his
studies of the influence of forests upon
the moist currents that pass over them,
that pines and other needle-leaved trees
have strong attraction for the vapor of
water. He believes that the resinous
trees transpire twice as much as other
trees; and has also observed that when
they are exposed to moist air they absorb
vastly more water than the latter.

day morning, called forth the firemen
and citizens In a short time. 1t is sup
posed that the fire originated from a
spark falling out of the ash pan on the
floor, as they had been using the press
the night previous. The flames were
eXtinguished in few moments. We
are glad to learn that Bro. Peffer's loss
is light, and that it is fully insured in
the Watertown of New York.
Last Wednesday night, about half
past eleven O'Clock, flames were discov-
cred issuing from the roof of brick
smoke house, belonging to the Misses
Richison, corner of Pitt and Louther
streets. AS usual our firemen were
promptly on the ground, and in short
time succeeded in extinguishing the
flames. The smoke-house had been
leased by Cyrus Mickey who smoked
meat by contract, and there was con-
siderable quantity of it in the place at
the time, all of which was destroyed.

For The TIMES.
The Historical Tree-A Mistaken Idea.

MIR. EDITOR I'VE noticed an article
in your paper not long since, concerning
historical tree in the Narrows," near
Concord, that this tree Is the corner of
four counties. We have heard 1t said
when boy, Though we are not very
large yet,) that this tree In the Concord
Narrows," was a "corner post" of the
counties of Perry, Franklin, Juniata
and Huntington, and we were willing
then TO swallow the story without fur
ther investigation, until within a few
years. We now refuse to swallow that
hash, as it is altogether too thin. While
teaching school near Concord, in 1915
we inquired about this tree, and we were
told quite different story by those who
ought to know. The line between
Franklin and Perry crosses Horse Val
ley about two miles east of Concord, and
extends in straight line, north, up to
the top of the Tuscarora Mountain. 1t
is fully two miles from the north west
corner of Perry county to this tree in
the Concord "Narrows." If the readers
of your paper do not believe this, let
them q map of Pennsylvania,
containing the counties and see for
themselves. ANON.
