Americn.s uplearned ABC.

Our holidays in this country are practi- cally limited to two-the Fourth of July in summer and Christmas day in winter writes Edward w. Box in an earnest plea for moro rest and recreation for the people of this nation in Tho Ladies Home Jour nal. While other holidays arc more or less generally observed, as conditions make it possible, "tho Fourth" and Christmas are essentially the great leisure days of the American people, when every one who can takes holiday. It is a fact to be deplored that as a nation we have not more holi- days that arc really observed, but this is because as a people we have yet to learn how to rest. That we will learn the les son is unquestionable. Our national health will drive us to 1t, even if our judg- ment temporarily halts The comfort of real living is something of which we in America as yet do not know the simple A B c. Some day we will wake mp, cease this everlasting strife for tho dollar, be content with what we have rather than reach ont for more, take things n little easier, and we shall be happier and healthier people, but until we do reach this point VIC should wisely enjoy the few holidays we choose to recognize.

Tho most unique and interesting of the various collections is the so called "Holz- bibliothek," or library of wood, consist ing of 546 volumes in folio, octave and duodocimo, made from trees growing in Wilhelmshire park and representing 120 genera and Al species

The upper edge shows the young wood cut crosswise to exhibit the rings and pith, while the under edge is of old wood cut in the same manner to illustrate the changes which take place in the tex ture as the tree gains in ago and size.
 The top cover Is of unripe wood in the rough; the front edge shows the polished grain and also the fungi to which the tree is liable when in the stages of decay or disease. Attached to the front edge is a cubic inch of mature wood, on which is noted its specific weight when the sap is flowing in the early spring, again in mid summer and still again when thoroughly dry Under this is given the degree of heat obtainable from a cubic inch of dry wood in cubic foot of space, that given out by tho same quantity when it becomes n glowing coal, its diminished size and weight when charred, and the properties of the tree, together with description of the soil in which it fourishes best.
 The interior of the book or box contains a complete history of the tree, especially of tie organs of nourishment and fructifi- cation.

 ''No, can't say as wcs .married to my husband, MT. Runleles, through just what you follzs~nowadays would call love. It came mostly about in this way: WhenI wash girl about six teen Mir. Runkles took drong hank erin after me and he did considerable escortin with me, goin' to several places. an bein' seen there with him it got out that we was keepin' company, an MT. Runkles was a mighty strong man and no one could come up to him in fist fightin, and the other fellers were feared of him, owin' to his brags if another feller started goin' with me he pull him limb from limb Now, there was lot of nice, slick fellers that took hankerin' after me, but they was feard of Mir. Runkles and you could not get ono of them to go near me, much less start keepin' company.
 ''All this went mighty hard on me, for was girl of no very poor appear ,ances, and when it came to dancin' and smart back talk not a girl could come near up to me. l can't say as MT. Runllles was the kind of man that I could take a strong hankerin' after. He was too big and what you might call 'raw-boned' in them days. He was not given to talk at all and l had just to keep quiet when he was keepin' com pany, if that could be called keepin' company. Things went on in this way and didn't see any things tellin' of change. knew MT. Runkles was de- termined-lil1e and nothin' would hap pen unless some of the fellers that had a hankerin after me would stand up fighty and not be feard of Mir Runkles.
 Thar was one feller I shall never forget, and he was nice feller, the incest one of them all; he was a feller named Dave Harris, and I did like Dave, and Dave did like me; but Dave had not the spirit of fghtin' in him and he would have nothin to do with me, owin' to MT. Runkles' intentions in that line. At last speaks up to him and says: MT. Harris, why'don't you come and see me no moreP and he says back to me: 'Pd like to awfully, Miss Briggs, but, don't you know, kinder hate to face the wrath of MT. Runkles.' And then I tell him not to mind Mr. Runkles, but he wouldunot look at the case in that way. You know I ain't no good at fist-fghtin',' he said, but you know think the world and all of you I says to him: Be man, Dave Harris, and make. a stand for your rights and my own as American citi- zens to do our own free will, but Dave would say to everything l said: You know I ain't no good fist-fghtin'.'
 "Then got very proud-like and had nothin to say to him.. I was gettin' well up in twenties, and things did look serious to me-my looks was fadin' and MT. Runkles showed no signs of yieldin.' was so tired of trying to hold out, saw no fellers would come near me, owin to their bein' feard of MT. Runkles | came to terms and we was married, and that is the reason that I am rather sharp on Mr. Runkles at times, as you may have noticed."- Kate Fields Washington.
