here and there were left shallow pools.
Big gnarly stumps of trees, probably
grown many miles up the river, had
occasionally stranded, after floating
down on the rivers surface, and gath

Barrels and boxes of all sorts of
strange plumber were to be found, and
1t is not altogether unlikely that one,
by looking closely. might have found
more than one article of value.
The sand had dried down as hard and
firm as on any Atlantic beach. 1t was
springy, too. just the thing for brisk
walking. And walking on 1t was JOY.
There were neither jostling elbows nor
sweet smells, nor sounds. Just the gray

Above IL the grasses hung over the FIVE

large cottonwood tree. The welt ran
straight out toward the river 1000
yards or more, then turned west and
wound in a waving line up stream. For
nearly two miles ii could be followed,

PLANTS AND THEIR BREATHING
All Grasses, Shrubs and Trees Posses
Respiratory Org ms

All Grasses, Shrubs and Trees Posses
Respiratory Org ms
From the st. Louis Republic.
All plants, from the humblest way
side weed to the most stately tree, are
provided with lungs" and a regular
respiratory system. If a leaf be ex-
erful microscope, it will appear almost
like IA piece of lace work, the entire
surface being punctured with thou
ings may properly be said to be
as stomata, but they serve in the ca
pacity of a mouth, and it is through
their we'll guarded lips that all the air
passes into the tube that is provided by
an all-wise providence for the purpose
of airing the blood (sap) of the plant
or tree in question. Strictly speaking.
the leaves themselves are the lungs of
a plant and the air comes in direct con-
tact with the sap and aerates IL as soon
as II passes through the minute mouth
or opening in the surfce of the leaf.
The botanists say that these openings
(stomata) are so well guarded with tiny
bristles that ii is absolutely impossible
to force a drop of liquid (water, spirits
or anything of that sorD through the
lips. This is certainly wonderful, when
we consider that they are continually
opening and closing, in fact continu-
ally performing the act of inspiration
and expiration. Wagner says that 1.-The
verge apple tree of five years growth
inhales and exhales as much air in a
given length of times S does a full
grown man."
