1t was the afternoon of the third
day. He had been to the park in the
morning, and had walked back. There
was strange dizziness in his head,
and his knees knocked together more
than once, and twice his eyesight
seemed to be leaving him. He was
hungry; he had not eaten for nearly
three days, but he thought he was
dying.
1t gave him a certain sort of grim
satisfaction. He would not have taken

THE RIGHTS OF THE ACTIVE
BOY.

No doubt, boys. you all think that as
American citizens you have "inalienable
rights" which nothing can destroy, and
l agree with you. Again. you think
that these rights are frequently unneces.
sarily curtailed by "don'ts" and stops"
and do quits" and again quite agree
with you; but-ah. boys. that dreadful
: but" which SO often destroys half our
pleasure or satisfaction but" : the
trouble is, that other people have rights,
too. Did you think the world was made
for boys? Bless your dear hearts, what
mistake! The world was made for
everybody, and right assumed by an
individual when it interferes with the
comfort or convenience Of others, is no
right at all. Now, for instance, accord
to every boy right to whistle all he
wants to, and l even allow mine to whis-
tie in the house. But then it dosen't
annoy me, and my boy has a right to
whistle in my house. Still he would
have no right to whistle in your house.
And whenever my boy when he was lit
tie thy the way. he is man now want
ed to whistle in the house. and found
that it annoyed others, away he was sent
pleasantly to his own room, and there
he would whistle like a bird for half
hour and come out smiling and much
refreshed. Now that boy had right to

to some extent. Strange to say that al
though this has been going on for several
years, the cats do not seem to know that
every seventh day is Sunday, and that
the workman does not make his appear

regularly every Sunday. for all these

comfort of others.
I suppose that every boy fancies that
he has right to be ''cross" once in a
while. Well, now, l don't know about
that, certainly; but as grown people are

boys the privilege; but-ah! again that

And, boys, you have right to great
deal of outdoor exercise and all the fun
your parents means and your surround
ing circumstances will permit. But
when you let your love of fun interfere
with your lessons, or use money that
your parents cannot afford, or cause

abuse your rights, and then they are no

If you have your real rights sometimes
curtailed, there are some others accord
ed to you to which you, as gentlemen,
can have no possible claim. The main
one of these is the habit of teasing.

and there they let the matter rest. Now
you have no more right as boy to be
tease than you have to be a burglar or
anything else unpleasant, not to say
villainous. Your being "bcy" does not
give you right to make miserable the
lives of your sisters, or the animals
around you. Why should you pull the
cats lail every time you come within
reach? Why should you pull your sis
ter's plat, or ravel out her knitting, or
undo something which she has complet
ed. Suppose she should rub out the
slateful of arithmetic which you have so
carefully worked out? All! that would
be different, wouldn't it? You would

as much right to interfere with you in
her own way as you have to interfere
with her in your own way.-Emna G.

THE GIANT TREES OF CALI
FORNIA.

Andrew caldwell, the special agent
of the general land office appointed to
make an investigation as to the location,
condition, number, ETC., of giant (sequoia)
gigantic trees in the Stockton and Wis
ALA land districts in California, has
made his report to the general land
office. These trees, the special agent
says, grow in detached clusters on the
top or sides of the Sierra Nevada noun
tain range in the districts named, and
always at an elevation Of from 5000 to
1000 feet, Access to them, as rule, is
very difficult on account of the extreme
lugtn So of the m a passes al d
canons. The Mariposa grove, in the
Stockton land district. is the largest in
that vicinity. 1t contains about 800
trees OF all sizes, and seems to be prop
erly guarded from forest fires by the
stage company, which has the monopoly
of carrying tourists through that Sec
ton to the Yosemite valley. The Tue
lumne and MERGED groves contain
eighteen and forty trees respectively.
These groves are in danger of mountain
fires carelessly set by sheep herders.
The Fresno grove at one time contained
beteen $50 and 400 trees. Some years
ago the Madeira Flume and Trading
company, the report says, erected saw
mill, into whose nav the giant sequoias
are rapidly disappearing, and now only
about 100 remain. They are located on
patented land and are under the control
of the Madeira company. The largest
trees, however, have been spared, be-
cause they cannot be proftably handled.
In the Visalia district there is one small
and one large grove of giant trees. The
latter is virgin forest and contains over
1000 giant sequoias and many more
small trees.
Some five years ago cooperative col
ony located about forty entries in this
neighborhood, and are constructing a
road to this timber belt. The colony, it
is asserted, numbers 600 members, and
has recently engrafted the Bellamy idea
as their leading attrac ion. There is
danger, the agent believes, that these
people, if unmolested, will soon destroy
this most wonderful and perfect body Of
sequoia gigantia in the world. In a
table giving the number and size of the
trees in the groves visited, only those
forty-fve feet in circumference and
more, measured three feet from the
ground, are classed as giants. OF these,
2,675 were found. Fourty four are over
eighty feet in circumference. and several
are more than 100. One is LOG feet in
circumference, or a little more than
thirty five feet in diameter. Secretary of
Interior has requested the Secretary of
| War to station a company of cavalry in
the Sequoia national park. and another
in the Yosemite park, to prvent depre-
dations ON the mammoth tree groves.
| 1t is stated that the so called Bellamy
colonists. who have part in perfected
title to lands on which these trees stand,
have expressed purpose TO hold their
claims in spite of opposition.
