HOW MUCH OLDER.

Charley and Harry, twins Of years,
were gentlemanly, handsome, intelligent,
very attractive, and always noticed BY
strangers. Riding in the horse cars
with their mother one day, a gentleman
began to talk to Charley, and finally
asked him how much older he was than
his brother. Charley very innocently
replied, "Msmms says she believes about
10 minutes" The mother did not join
In the shout which followed.

Our Wild Cherries.

In the early history Of America two
species Of cherry were found wild. The
common one grows to large tree and
was named by the botanists Cerasus
scrotina. This is what is usually under
stood when referring to the wild cherry.
Wild cherry bark and wild cherry tonics
Of the drug stores are obtained from this
species. There is another species which
seldom makes a tree of any size and is
more commonly known as large shrub.
This is the Cerasus virginiana. 1t is
better known, in distinction to the 9th
er, as the choke cherry. 1t is more
closely related to the bird cherry. The
bird cherry is known as the Cerasus
padus. Since the introduction of the
common cherry Of the old world birds
have carried seeds from the gardens to
the woods, and this cherry has now be-
come almost as common in some Of the
woods around certain cities as though 1t
were indigenous here. This is even call
ed the wild cherry when speaking com.
paratively with the garden one But
the names tend TO confusion with the
American wild cherry. Nurserymen, in
order to prevent confusion, have almost
universally adopted the name Of MAJ.
