Missourt,s Big Red Oak Tree

The citizens OF Pcmiscot county claim that
The largest oak tree in the world stands
d. one Of the forests in their county. Col.
George y. BOwles OF Affton, st. Louis
county, has given the dimensions Of this
giant Of The forest. The tree is described
as red oak which some claim is a
cross between white and black oaks. The
body of the tree is straight, with a ''sweI''
the first eight feet above the ground. 1t is
claimed 10y woodsmen that "swells'' on trees
are caused 10y injuries near the ground
when the trees are small. The injured
portion is grown over, ana the growth con-
tinucs. Col Bowles and his engineer
measured the body of the tree, and found
that it is so feet to the first limb which
is larger than any OF the trees in the forest
surrounding. The body Of the tree. above
the swell" eight feet above the ground,
IS &c inches in diameter. The circumference
near the ground is 27 feet. The branches
OF the tree are numerous and long. giving
the tree top-heavy appearance. Col.
Bowles and his engineer estimated that the
beay Of the tree, below the first limb. will
produce IL 900 feet OF lumber. besides

HIS EVENING SERMON.
DR.. Talmage Talked of Christians

Who Are Not Church Members
DR.. Talmage's evening sermon was on
the subject, Outsiders" The text, John
x:16. "Other sheep have / which are not
of this fold" He said in part:
There is no monopoly in religion. The
grace of God is not a little property that
we ma y fence off and have all to ourselves
1t is not kings park at which we look
through barred gateway, wishing that we
might go in and see the deer and the estatuary,
and pluck the flowers and fruit in the royal
conservatory. No. it is the Fathers
orchard, and everywhere there are bars
that we may let down and gates that we may
swing open.
Macdonald, the Scotchman, has four or
five thousand head of sheep. Some OF
them are browsing on the heather, some or
them are lying down under the trees, some
of them are in bis yard; they are scat
tered around in eight or ten different
places. Cameron, his neighbor, comes
over and says: i see you have thirty
sheep; have just counted them" No.
says Macdonald, Ihave great many more
sheep than that. Some are here, and
some are elsewhere. They are scattered
all around about. l have four or five
thousands in my flocks. Other sheep I
have, which are not in this fold.'
$50 Christ says to us. Here is a knot
of Christia ms and there is knot of Chris
tians, but they make up small part of the
flock. Here is the Episcopal fold, the
Methodist fold, the Lutheran fold, the Con-
! gregational fold, the Presbyterian fold, the
Baptist and the Pedo-Rap ptist fold, the only
difference between these last two being
the mode of sheep washing; and so they
are scattered all over; and we come with
our statistics, and say there are so many
| thousands of the Lords sheep; but Christ
responds: No, no; you have not seen more
than one out of a thousand of my flock.
! They are scattered all over the EARTH
Other sheep.I have which are not OF this
fold.'
I'm the first place, remark, that the
! heavenly Shepherd will find many of his
sheep among the non-church-goers. There
are congregations where they are all Chris
| tians, and they seem to be completely fill
| ished, and they remind one Of the skeleton.
| leaves, which by chemical preparation
have had all the greeness and verdure

of Christ has nothing to do with such

Gericlle, the great German forester, writes
that the greatest ages TO which trees In Ger
many are positively known TO have lived

the pine in Bohemia and the pine in Nor
way aud Sweden have lived to the latter
age. Next comes the silver fir. which
in the Bohemian forests has stood and
thrivcd for upward Of 400 years. In
Bavaria the larch has reached the age OF
273 years. OF foliage trees. the oak APP
pears 10 have survived the longest. The
best Example is The evergreen oak at Aschof-
fenbarg. which reached the age OF 4I0
years Other oaks in Germany have lived

Aschoffenburg the red beech has lived TO
the age Of 245 years, and at other points

THE DOG THAT REMAINED,

The dog that came to our house was of sad and
mournful kind.
He sat down by the kitchen door and waited
there and whined.
And, hearing him, the girl went out and
threatened him with COAL
And he withdrew himself from view in silent,
gloomy dole.
He was a homely looking cur, patched in with
white and black.
He waited till the girl was gone and then came
slowly back
So cheerless was the vagrant beast, so void of
grace or charms,
That myself expelled him then with sound
of fierce alarms.
That homeless, spotted, trampish dog was
most persistent. He
fingered outside the yard until the gate click
ed after me,
And then-my wife's authority-when l ran
for the train
He came again and was rebuked by her in bit
ter strain.
But, 10, as down the yard he moved at mourn
full, sinking pace.
Around the fold of mammals dress there peer
ed baby face,
And then my boy declared himself with noisy
joyful whoop,
IA doggie tum to play wifi me" and scamper.
ed down the stoop.
Now listen-this is passing STRANGE That even
ing at the gate
A dog all patched with white and black met
me with bark elate,
And, guarded by the merry girl, my boy ap-
preached in glee,
And from the porch his mother smiled most
shamelessly at me.
The probate court is mighty in its mandates
and DEGREES,
But there are legal processes that double dis
count these,
And when baby indicates purpose and in

In which adoption figures there is room for no
dissent.
