Remarkable Trees.

The largest elm tree in Western New
York is at Wyoming. The trunk at the
base is twenty-four feet in clrcumfer-
ence.
An oak tree near Raleigh, N. c., is Z
such proportions that it would afford
shelter for 4,5O0 men. and at noon 1t
shades space of 5000 feet.
A burr oak tree on the farm OF q: Cod
frey, of Marshall, Mich, recently .telled,
measured twenty-three feet in circuln-
ference. 1t is supposed to be 200 years
old. There were ls7 visible rings, and
in the heart the rings wore not distinct
enough to be counted.
An oak tree with elm branches is a
curiosity in E.mwood cemetery, Mem
phis. Tenn. The trunk is two and a
half feet in diameter, and for distance
of ten feet from the ground is to all ap-
pearances an oak. Above that nave
sprung two large branches, one OF which
is oak and the other elm. -,

A fig tree that still fourishes, and is

22s B. c., in Ceylon. Its history is pre-

by the Chinese traveller, Fa Ham, in the

Origin Of Oil Springs.

The source of these vast supplies of
oil has been much discussed, and there
are some points in their history which
remain obscure. We trace their origin
to great forests of antiquity whose shrubs
were trees and whose trees were giants
we know their greatness by the cast of
their huge leaves, which we find in our
coal mines. Submerged and subjected
to certain strange agencies, the vast
rank forests turned slowly into coal.
Such a change involves separation Of
carbon and hydrogen, sometimes as oil
or both combined. Gravity would
force the fluid to seek the lowest level it
could find. through every crack and
fissure, which accounts for its being
found out not only below but often re-
mote from the coal deposits. Under
such circumstances the pressure of
water from beneath. or the volatile ma
ture of gas which accompanies the oil,
forces it up into the highest attainable
level, thus bringing it into strata above
the coal measures-on the floor of the
coal beds. Just how, when or why
these wonderful transitions took place
may never be definitely known-for, in
the vast crucible beneath our feet, fierce
fires are always raging. Such change
is directed by the hand of the Almighty
chemist, with faultless wisdom and in
ways past finding ou..

A Curious Custom.

It is q custom in many Swiss villages
when maiden belonging to the parish
accepts a foreigner r"-an inhabitant
ofsome other parish--a -as her bridegroom,
to compel the successful suitor to re-
deem his bride from her own native
community by paying an indemnity in
money to'the young men of the place.
This losegeld or ransom money. is usu'
ally demanded Immediately after the
marriage, when the bridal couple are
leaving the brides village. A chain or
rope is stretched across the road in
front of the bridal and it is not removed
until the husband has paid to the young
male representatives of the tribe the
price of the daughter whom he is about
to carry away. The custom has been
much corrupted in the course of time
and tie money is not now unfrequently
extorted from. the father who is about
to lose his daughter, instead of being
demanded, with a plea of immemorial
unwritten. right and show of force,
from the husband, who has robbed the
village ola manageable maiden. In
Villars -le-Grand, not far from Aven
ches, the village youth met in council,
and resolved that the father of a depart
ing bride should be made to pay the
sum of ten dollars, as fine for marry
ing his daughter to foreigner: A dep
utation was sent to him, which, after
informing him of this resolution,
threatened him with "charivari in
the event of his refusal. The father Of
fered six dollars; this sum, however,
was refused rs insufficient, and for
three nights the young men and lads OF
the village executed Il fearful :" cats
concert" underneath his daughters
window. The father complained to the
police; the case was brought before the
distri. court. and four of the 1inglead-
ers, in spite of their plea of custom, were
condemned to five days imprisonment,
fine of five dollars each and payment
of the costs.-Lontlon Globe.

Hot Heads.

A hot head implies impaired or slug
gish circulation of the blood, the smaller
vessels of the skin being inactive from
the contracted state of the surface, with
consequent chilliness of that surface
and of the feet, hands and limbs. Of
course these arrangements are aggra-
waited by tight bands which impede the
flow oi the blood in the surface vessels
the narrow and :nelastic being the
most unfavorable - while excessive
mental effort, anxiety, worry and fret
ting, with certain deranged states of the
stomach, have their influence. The
undue activity of the brain and conse-
quent inlammatory tendency may be
modified by active exercise, as rapid
walking, Withdrawing the surplus blood
from the brain to the limbs, where It is
then needed, of course relieving and
resting the brain. Indeed, very few
will be troubled with an overheated
brain who have ample physical exer-
else, and who occupy cool apartments,
the hot rooms of the winter ten degrees
hotter than we would endure in the
summer-always tending to derange the
brain. Avoiding the heavy and thick
feather pillows also will do much to
obviate the heat of the head and head
aches, rs well as the moderate use of tile
heaters" the sweets, the fats and oils
and the like, intended simply or mainly
not as nourishm ,nt, but to sustain the
animal heat. Warming the feet, soak
ing in hot water and afterward washing
in cool water will cool the head.
