History in Trees.

1t hG been found that the rings OF
growth visible in the trunks Of trees
have a far more interesting story to tell
than has usually been supposed. Every
n knows that they indicate the num-
Der of years that the tree has lived; but
Mr. j.. Keuchler has recently made ex-
periments and observations which seem
to show that trees carry in their trunks
a record of the weather conditions that
have prevailed during the successive
years of their growth.
Several trees, each more thar 1870
years old, were felled and the order and
relative width OF the rings of growth in
their trunks were found to agree ex-
actly. This fact showed that all the
trees had experienced the same stimu-
lation in certain years.
Assuming that the most rapid growth
had occurred in wet years and the least
rapid in dry years, it was concluded
that ont of the 1874 years covered by the
life of the trees, 6 had been extremely
wet, 60 very wet, 10 wet, IL average, as
to the supply of moisture; 10 dry, 8
very dry and s extremely dry. But
when the records of rainfall running
back as far as 1910 were consulted il
was found that they did not entirely
agree with the record of the trees.
The conclusion was therefore reached
that the record of the rings contained
more than q mere index Of the annual
rainfall; that it showed what the char
acter of the seasons had been as to sun.

larity or ~irregularity of the supply OF

between his position and mine? What con-

left to me for the rest OF my life but my
child? And he threatens to separate us for
SIX months in every yearl And he takes
credit to himself for an act of exalted justice

shame in the hearts of menP"
Under ordinary circumstances her mother
would have tried to calm her. But Mrs.
Presty had turned to the next page of the .et-
ter at that moment when her daughter spoke.
What she found written on that other side
produced a startling elect on her. She
crumplcd the letter up in her hand and threw
it into the fireplace. 1t fell under the CRATE
instead of into the CRATE. With amazing
activity for a woman of her age, she ran
across the room to burn it. Younger and
quicker, Mrs. Linley got to the fireplace first
and seized the letter. There is something
more ~ she exclaimed. And you are afraid
of my knowing what it is"
Don't read It'll" Mrs. Presty called out.
There was but one sentence left to read:
"If your maternal anxiety suggests any mis-
giving, let me add that a woman's loving care
will watch over our little girl while size is
under my roof. You will remember how
fond Miss Westerlield was of Kitty, and you
will belieyesne when l tell yon that she is as
| truly devoted to the child as ever"
II tried to prevent you from reading it,"
said Mrs. Presty.
Mrs. Linley looked at her mother with a
strange, unnatural smile.
II wouldn't have missed this for any
thing!" she said. 1.-The cruelest of all sepa-
rations is proposed to me-and | am expected
to submit to it because my husbands mis-
tress is fond OF my child!' She threw the
letter from her with Il frantic gesture OF con
tempt and buns! into a fit of hystericallaugh

police became powerlesS and the fire

cABRlEL's TRUMP,
How a Young Girl Cured Her Brother of
Practical Joking.

A certain excellent lady of Boston
has so great a horror of practical jokes
and all other sorts of foolish levity which
does not regard the rights aud feelings
of others. that it was with much sur
prise That her friends recently heard
her avow that she once in her youthful
days perpetrated a practical joke of her
own, says the Youths Companion.
"Ah." said q young man who was pres

world.

fessed at the dinner table one day that

another brother. a very little fellow,

called for a drink OF cold water. 1t fell
to my lot to take care of the child, and
in getting him the water had TO pass

distinguished patronage. Miss Field
attracted every one with her sweet face
and natural manner Her reading from
her fathers works at the Columbia
theater on Wednesday night met with
most favorable comment. Her toilet of
deep black, relieved only by a bunch of
Parma violets, with the melodious

with the tenderest tremors in it, She
read the poem, Some Time" written
