the redwood, the Sequoia sempervirens,
greatly exceeds that Of any other class
of the conifers, the quantity Of lumber
they turn ont to the acre being without

The eurite contains porphyritic crystals
Of pink orthoclase, while the andesite is
normally devoid of them. Near its
contact with the former rock, however,
crystals exactly like these in the eurite
are occasionally found in the andesite.
Crystals Of quartz and feldspar have

told him to expand his lungs and cry

him and explained how the flowers
should be sold. One Of them took the

balls which he hung mp as sign. For .

term bill-yard, r Bills yard, corrupted
into billiards. This etymology will
hardly satisfy Mr.. Skeat, but it is at

however, is the fact that it is the work

Two Lovely Dorcics.

Some years ago Lwas out riding, ac-
companied by my two dogs-an Irish
setter and bull terrier. I had fall

put the burden down to rest they jump
ed on to it, licking my face and hands.
For several days the spaniel lay for
hours in the carriage drive, apparently
watching for his master.
One morning, when the postman de-
livered the letters, the servant gave the
dog my newspaper, and with, "Bring it
along, Paddy" he carried it up stairs
into my room. His joy at seeing me
was worth beholding, and from that
day he regularly met the postman, car
ried the newspaper off and laid it OH
my bed. He was scarcely ever after alb
sent from the room or the passage lead
