PINE TREE

The sawmill follows in the wake Of
the turpentine gatherer.
The one of certain species of pine
are sometimes eaten as food.
A kin to afford 100 barrels of tai
should burn about eight or nine da. -
The inner bark of the rine tree%in
certain sections of the country made
into rope.
The yellow pine is n Of the most
valuable woods or the country. and is
used largely for shipbuilding and house
timber.
h yellow pine tree often attains a
height of seventy feet and upward.
though rarely more than two feet in
diameter.
An essential oil obtained by distilla-
ton of the leaves or needles has medi-
cfnal virtues attributed to it by some
German practitioners.
Immense quantities of the pitch
pine" grown in the Southern states are
exported to Great Britain and the West
Indies. 1t is very durable and polishes
well.
In kamschatka the inner bark of the
pine is macerated in water, then
pounded and made into a kind of sub
stftute for bread, without any admix-
ture Of flour.

Tho Porcupine's OuIlls,

The current opinion that a porcu-
pine throws its quilts at an enemy is
not supported by facts, says the
Portland Oregonian: The spines of
the porcupine are very loosely attach
ed to the body and are very sharp
as sharp as a needle. At almost the
slightest touch they penetrate the nose
of a dog or the clothing or flesh of a
person touching the porcupine, and
stick there, coming away from the ami
NAL without any pull being required.
The facility in catching hold with one
end and letting go with the other has
sometimes caused people to think that
the spines had been thrown at them.
The outer end of the spines, for some
distance down, is covered with small
barbs. These barbs cause a spine once
imbedded in a living animal to keen
working farther in with every move
ment of the muscles.

LOST AND FOUND.
THE STORY OF A YOUNG GIRLS

(From tho News-Tribune, Muscatine, Iowa.)
Miss Mae Gatten, living near Muscatine,
Iowa, has had a remarkable experience.
Three years ago last spring Miss Gatten's
parents and many friends noticed apeculiar
change in her. She was not the pleasant,
wide-awake girl of old. Her mother was
not alarmed at first, thinking that after the
March winds and April storms were over,
the color would return to her cheeks. But
May, June and July passed and Macs cheeks
were only growing more thin and pale every
day. One part of her work after another
was given up. Her flower garden, in which
previously she had taken great delight, was
neglected. Then, too, her irregular attend
ance at church made it necessary for her to
give up her Sunday School class.
When coming from town one day her
father met her music teacher, Miss Jones,
in tears, going slowly from the house. He
spoke to her as usual and then inquired Of
ment Miss Jones told him that Mae had not
been able to take u full lesson for weeks.
This seemed to awaken Mr.. Gatten to the
real state of affairs, and he hastily sent for
the family physician.
With the chilling winds of autumn Mae
grew much worse. The doctor pronounced
it bronchial trouble, with serious female
1 1 NV ioiAo Ahb
they changed doctors, and as their beloved
daughter grew worse from day to day, they
consulted the list medical talent to be had
in that section. Thus matters went on dur
ing the entire winter.
The next spring a young lady relative OF
the family made them an extended visit.
She had been wonderfully helped by DR..
Williams Pink Pills, and always carried
some with her. She was so enthusiastic that
she soon had Miss Gatten trying them, and
insisted on her giving them u fair trial.
She finished one box and said she felt some
better. Her father was pleased and pur-
chased more.
One cannot imagine the complete surprise
and delight of that glad father and mother
when they found their daughter kept on
improving. Six boxes were used and Miss
Gatten was able to walk around, a pleasant,
happy girl of eighteen Two more
boxes and she declared herself perfectly
well, cured by DR.. Williams Pink Pills fol-

in LENRAcH,s STUDIO.
1t Is Filled with Rare, Beautiful and

NhAN
Historical Things.
For years he worked in an unpre.
tentious back building on the site
where he has now erected the mag
nificent house of which his brother,
well known in his special branch, was
architect, says the Century. The stu
dio is divided into three spacious rooms
and occupies the whole of the second
story. The ceilings are richly deco
rated with medallions and bas-reliefs
in dark woods picked out with gold;
the walls, also dark in tone, are hung
with valuable tapestries and copies of
well-known pictures during his Wan
derjahre. with here and there an au-
thenticated work of an old master. An
unceasing and discriminating collector,
Lenbach has filled his house and stu
dio with objects of esthetic and his
toric interest. There are marble stat
ues and friezes of ancient Greece and
Rome, busts and bas-reliefs dating
from the renaissance, crucifixes and
%reliquaries breathing the mystical af-
fiatus of the middle ages, priceless and
historic brocades, rugs and hangings
from the east-eyerything, from the
beautiful shell grotto adjoining the
studio, with its elaborate mosaics, to
a rare bit of brocade from some sup
pressed monastery, giving evidence of
the unerring taste of the master. The
whole building is illuminated nv a
