Possibilities of Tree Planting.

Seventy five years ago Thomas L.
Walker, then mere boy, planted
four walnuts by the roadside oppo-
site his fathers house near Cedar
Bluff, and some ten miles west of
Knoxville He died ten years ago,
yet he lived to see four walnut trees
grow to a measure of four feet in
diameter, worth, if cut and properly
seasoned, at least $400 each. Had he
planted 800 walnuts on an adjoip-
ing acre of ground his heirs when he
died would have been $120, 900 better
off. Today they would be 5000, 600
better off. Had he planted ten acres
they would be worth at least 81, 000,-
900.
Had he planted a hundred acres,
and all the trees had reached an
average of three feet in diameter,
and there is no reason why they
shouldn't, as the land is fertile and
impregnated with lime, his heirs,
and there are only three living,
would be worth altogether 5000, OOO,,
600. If, like old Johnny Appleseed,
who planted thousands Of apple trees
in the northwest, he had planted all
the worn out fields in Tennessee in
walnuts, it would be the richest state
in the Union by far. Knoxville

Persons of the boarding fraternity,
who occupy during the evening the
same room in which they sleep, will
do well to observe the simple pre-
caution of a thorough airing just be-
fore bedtime. Two or three gas
burners will in a couple of hours
completely exhaust the pure air of a
large room, and the mere lowering
of n window from the top, with no
cross draft, will not restore the oxy
gen with sufficient promptness
The process is slow by this means,
and the sleeper will probably get a
headache for the morning, or bad
dreams at least, before it is accom-
phshed. Set door and window wide
open, turn off all burners save one,
and that to star, and let the air
sweep through for fifteen minutes,
Then the room, with the window
slightly lowered and raised, will be
suitable to sleep in.-New York
Times.

Floors Mnde of PAPER.

The wide adaptability Of paper is
regarded as likely to lead to solu-
ton of the problem of rendering
dwellings and business structures
fireproof 1t is now found that paper
can be made perfectly freproof,
while remaining amenahle to the
same treatment, in the matter of
coloring, polish and handling, as
most woods, Such a material offers
all the advantages of an ideal sub
stance for floors, and it can be used
equally well for the walls of build
ings. Besides this it can be utilized
in the finish and furniture of houses

PHILOSOPHY c. oussas.
The bag at the Knees Is Sign OF High
intellectual DEVELOPMENT.

The bag at the Knees Is Sign OF High
intellectual Development.
The intention of Providence is no
where made more clear than in the
ldecree that the outer bifurcated gar
ment of the male human animal
shall, after a suitable period of util
ity, bag at the points of genuflexion.
This feature OF mans attire is in
many ways a mark of superiority
and, instead of combating the tend
ency of which it is a result, the man
of true and honest pride in his man
hood will be satisfied, yea gratified
TO see nature take its course. His
contentment will be second only to
that with which he notes the whiten-
ing of his hair, which, going on while
his vigor of mind and body remains
as it should be in his prime, becomes
the most honorable decoration that
it is possible for man to wear.
The bagging of his trousers at the
knees proclai1ns that man is animate;
the chiutz coverings on the futed
legs of village pianos show no inter
mediate bagging II is a mark Of
humanity as distinguished from the
lower orders of animals the stork,
one of the most conspicuous of crea-
lures in the matter of legs, shows
no bagging at the knees. The only
brute that displays this tendency in
a noticeable degree is the elephant,
and it is significant that he, of tho
brute creation, is the creature that
comes next to man in intelligence,
kindliness, and the other qualities
that go to make man superior among
created things.
Mans baggy appearance about the
knees is also a badge of usefulness; {;
the dude and other creatures that
are placed on earth to fill chinks in
the economy of creation do not bag
at the knees; but the dude is an in
complete entity by himself Without
his "man" he is practically nonexist-
ent; and in his man we find the char
acteristic and everpI esent evidence
of superiority trousers bag at
the knees, unless the dude makes this
impossible by putting him in livery
that does not include trousers. That
the bagging of ones trousers at the
knees is an evidence of piety is so
plain that there is no occasion for
saying more on this point.
There is no plane of existence in
ferior to that of useful manhood in
which generous Tagging at the
knees is an unfailing characteristic
of its occupants. 1t is natural and
necessary that the trousers Of man
should bag at the knees. 1t is un-
natural and unnecessary to oppose
this tendency, and the ninety and
nine who look down and see their
kneepans outlined and magnifed
midway of their trousers legs should
feel pride and not humiliation in the
presence of the one whose trousers
legs conform to the equation of a
straight line.-New York Sun.

A LUMBERMAN'S RENDEZVOUS.

This term might be applied to Stevens
Point, located on the Wisconsin Central
Lines, at the gateway to the vast forest
region which extends North to Lake
superior, a distance OF 30 miles without a
break, on account of its vast lumber inter-
ests, The Wisconsin River to which the
lumbermen have given the familiar and
somewhat afiectiona1e title of "Old Wis
cons" not alone acts as a lumber feeder to
the city by furnishing through its numer-
Gus tributaries an outlet for thousands of
acres of pine in the uppur country, but it
furnishes water power that is second
only TO that of Neenah and Menasha,
which cities are also located ON the "Cen.
trail" Millions of feet of lumber are cut
every year. giving employment TO hun
dreds of men. In addition to the lumber
trade, it has numerous other manufac-
tories; IL is here where the large car shops
of the Wisconsin Central Lines are located.

Place of Modern Novel

Place of Modern Novel
Years ago. out on the plains of
Wyoming and at a place off any
beaten track, lived an old man,
known ~ Lonely Joe. in hut by
himself, and it was seldom indeed
that he ever had a visitor. Occasion
ally, however, some one would drift
that way, and he was always hos
pitably treated by Joe. The old man
was a great admirer of Buffalo Bill,
and hearing in some way that a book
about the scout had been published,
he became possessed of strong de-
sire to have it and to know it's con
tents. One evening a traveller stopped
at the hut of Lonely Joe and asked
if he could put up there for the night.
Joe pondered a moment or two and
finally said Wall. now, stranger
it's jest this way | amt hankering
to turn no C1itter away what wants
to stop, but I've made up my mind
that ! won't Let no man stop here un
less he gives me Buffalo Bills book. ="
A smile came over the strangers
face on the instant, and he said
We'll, I'm a great adnlirer of Buff
falo Bill too, and By sood luck |
happen to have his book with me
now. Can you read, pa'dT Joe re
piled that he couldn't, and the smile
broadened on the strangers face.
He went out to his saddlebags, but
soon returned, bringing with him a
book 1t was Bible Joe hustled
around, and in short order prepared
a hearty supper Having eaten. Joe
then said his guest must read him
something about Buffalo Bill This
was a "staggerer" for the stranger
for he knew his host would turn him
out bodily il he discovered the de
ception. He therefore said he couldn't
read himself. but always had to get
some one to read the book to him
Lonely Joe was very much disap
pointed, but in consideration of the
book he let his guest stay there that
night. He vowed, however, that no
one else should stay who could not
read,
1t was not great while after this
that another traveller asked for Lonely
Joe's hospitality. Can you read2''
inquired Joe.
Course can, =" said the stranger.
What do you want me to reada

see, stranger, l set heap by Buffalo

let any one stay here that couldn't
read me something outen his book
Now I've got the book. Igot it from
the last feller what stopped here, but
he nor me couldn't read. So, stranger,
if you can read and will read out of
Buffalo Bills book, you're welcome
to stay here"
The stranger put up his horse and
had his supper. Then they sat down,
and Lonely Joe's eyes fairly glis-
tened with anticipation as he handed
the stranger the book. The guest
started and laughed a little as he
saw it.
why, this he exclaimed, and
then suddenly recollecting how eager
the old man was to hear about Buf.
falo Bill, he went on:
why. this is a nice copy"
Yes, yes" cried the old man; go
on and read"
The stranger opened the book at
random, and by good luck hit upon
the story of Daniel in the Lions
Den" He read it all the way
through. never missing line, and
the old man was simply delighted.
The stranger had inserted Buffalo
Bills name wherever the name of
Daniel occurred Chicago Press.
