LORE ABOUT THE BEARD.
The Mohammedans Have Preserved
One Hair of the Prophets Whiskers.


The ancient Hebrews considered il the
greatest insult that could be offered to man
to pluck his beard, which may account in
part for the wonderful state of preservation
that tradition has connected with the beard
of the Old World male.
1t was a notion of the Mohammedans
that though Noah reached his one thnusandth
birthday no hair of his blessed beard fell off
or became white; but the Mohamme dams
had no more authority for that than Tor their
belief that the devil has but one solitary long
hair for a heard. 1t was, as some say, in
order to distinguish themse YES from the
ancient lsraelites that the followers of Mo-
manned cropped the beard but Mohammed,
as we know, sanctioned the dyeing of the
beard, ana preferred a cane color, because
that WAS the traditional hue of Abraham's
beard

and that servants expected to have Sunday

agency said that this was the slack season in
his business and that al the end IF the year
he often had as many as 10000 servants a
day in his looms and that he was making
money by furnishing servants at these low
rates. De told me that the other Berlin
agencies charged more. but that they had
nothing like his custom.
There is an organization here known as
the Housewives Union which devotes Itself
to the seryent-girl question. Ii has places
for the training Of servants and il gives
prizes for good servants. A girl who stays
five years at one place receives a pr re of a

case described. There only remains as q
working hypothesis the theory that the oak
forked ~ feet from the ground and grew
together above the pine after that had fallen
therein. But the oak tree appears to have
as solid and single stem above the pine as
beneath it. The puzzle remains as unsolved
as ever.
The curious knots on forest trees assume
the strangest OF shapes. eagerly searched
for, when sufficiently small, by collectors,
canemakers. and lovers OF the grotesque.
The madrone and manzanita produce many
odd caricatures OF men. birds, beasts, rep
ties, and gorgon fantasies too strange for
names. Larger developments of such thing
occur at times. as in the famous Elephants
Head burl of CaZadero. and the Maid Of
Santa Isabel tree to which your guide

only the cowboys can tell the local legend
thereof The most curious tree-knot that
l have heard OF is the ''Nick of the Woods"
described by Dan de guile, large rxcres-
eence upon mountain cedar on the Placer
vile road. near Lake Tahoe. 1t strikingly
resembles the head of an old man. and has
such an expression of patient suffering, ="

place known as Yanks station, and ought to

After the bark and the sapwoOd decays
from an old forest stump. the contorted
remnant is often very we'll worth study.
The skeleton OF the tree remains, with every
joint and articulation, flesbless and ghostly.
Such parodies upon living trees one finds in
the old Monterey cypress grove, among the
oaks of the Upper SACRAMENTO. and the frs
