Nutmegs.
[St. Louis Republic. ]

Nutmegs grow ON small trees which
much resemble our pear trees of six or
seven years growth. The tree is of a
pale hue much resembling in color the
weeping willow; is very fragrant and
hardly ever attains the height of more
than twenty feet. Nutmeg trees grow
both the nutmegs and the mace of COM
merce, the nutmeg being the seed of the
fruit and the mace the thin covering
over the seed. The fruit itself is about
as large as good sized peach, and when
ripe breaks open and exposes to view the
fragrant little nut SO highly priced as a
spice by all good cooks.
The tree, which is indigenous to sew
eral countries, grows most abundantly
on the island of Asia, but few growing
in America, these being confined to the
tropical parts. After arriving at matur-
ity tree will bear nutmegs for from 70
to 100 years, having ripe and green fruit
upon its branches at all seasons of the
year. One of the finest nutmeg trees in
the world grows in a public park at
Kingston, on the island of Jamaica. As
high as 5000 nutmegs have been gath
cred from it in single year.
A century ago the Dutch controlled
the nutmeg trade of the world, as they
then owned the Banda islands, the only
place it was known to grow. Ten thou
sand bushels of nutmegs were burned at
one time by the Dutch traders, who
were making wild effort at Le4ping up
pricea

IF WE KNEW.

Gould we but draw back the curtains
Inat surround each others lives,
zee the naked heart and spirit,
thnoW what spur the action gives,
olten we should find 1t better,
M rurer than we Judge we should;
we should love each other better
III we only understood.
Could we Judge all deeds by motives,
See the good and bad within,
Often we should love the sinner
All the while we loathe the sim.
Could we know the powers working
To O'erthrOw integrity,
We should Judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
If we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the effort all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain,-
Would the grim, external roughneSs
Seem, wonder, just the same?
Should we help where now we hinder2
Should we pity where we blame?
Ahi.we judge each other.harsbly.
Knowing not life's hidden force:
Knowing not the fOunt of action
Is less turbid at its source.
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good.
OH we'd love each other Better
II we only understood.

newly Matched brood crowded under hel
like chickens under a hen.
The smallest known insect, the Pterat-
