The SorrOVvful Tree,

There is tree in Persia to which the
name "the sorrowful tree is given.
Perhaps because it blossoms only in the
evening.
When the first star appears in the
heavens the first bud of the sorrowfu]
tree opens, and as the shades of night
advance and the stars thickly stud the
sky the buds continue gradually open
Ing until the whole tree looks like one
immense white flower. On the approach
OF dawn, when the brilliancy of the
stars gradually fades in the light of
day, the sorrowful tree closes it's flow
ers, and ere the sun is fully risen not
single blossom is visible. A sheet of
flower dust as white as snow covers the
ground around the foot of the tree,
which seems blighted and withered dur
ing the day, while, however, it is &C.
lively preparing for the next nocturnal
festival. The fragrance of the blossoms
Is like that Of the evening primrose.
If the tree is cut down close to the
roots, new plant shoots up and attains
in an incredibly short time
In the vicinity of this singular tree
there usually grows another, which is
almost an exact counterpart of the sor-
rowful tree, but less beautiful, and,
strange to say, 1t blooms only in the
daytime. Louis Globe Democrat

A Bride With Some Good Points

Some years ago in an agricultural
district there lived farmer who want.
ed to sell one of his COWS. There was
not at that time weekly paper in
which he could advertise, SO he resolved
to follow local custom and ask the
vicar Of the parish when giving out hi.
notices at church to advertise the COW.
"Yes, farmer" said the vicar II
should be willing to oblige you, but
you don't attend my church. -
Presently, however, they struck a
bargain that the vicar should advertise
the COW, and the man in return prom
ised to go to church.
Now, unfortunately the man was
deaf, and on the Sunday following when
the vicar gave out the banns of mar
rage between Joseph So-and-so, bach
elor, and Sarah So-and-so, spinster, the
farmer took 1t for granted that the
vicar was giving out particulars of his
COW and shouted out:
"You might as we'll say while YOU
are about it that she Is most gentle
creature and entirely free from vice."

DUKE OF ORLEANS.

self with Guerin and the sudden stop put
to the intervention of Nationalist depu-
ties with the government also Guerin's
refusal to yield when offered the right to
go free before the examining judge, to
which he replied by exacting the guaran-
teed liberty of all his companions with
out exception.
This also explains the cardinal arch
bishops visit to Nj. Waldeek- Rousseau,
the dukes silence since the arrest of his
friends and the strange attitude of the
government before the resistance of a
handful of men in the heart of Paris. 1t
is said that under the circumstances, the
government will throw on the senate sit
ting as high court the responsibility Of
forcing Fort Chabrol.
Another rumor, probably balon
d'essai, has been started in the PROV
inces by The Independence of Allier.
M. Waldeck- Rousseau invites the Drey-
fus family to withdraw his appeal from
the verdict of the Rennes court martial,
on the ground that the council of re-
vision can give a decision only after
months time, while Dreyfus cannot,
without danger of death, endure cellular
confinement so long. On this account it
is added, the president will sign a pardon
at tomorrow's cabinet council.

no man who Is not qualified to mix paint

Il split on AL demands. The government
axes the stand that any man who can
paint should be given an opportunity Of
going to work. 1t was said in the trans
port dock that in the event of a strike
requisition might be made to have sol
diers do the work.
The Glenogle's boilers are to be over
hauled and so great is the demand for
transports that the work is to be car
ried on day and night. The boiler maxi
ers have demanded ten hours pay for
eight hours work, for the given reason
that the work is much more complicated
than that in the shops. For night work,
which constitutes II hours, they demand
23 hours pay,
On the transport Centennial similar
demand was made, and the boiler makers
carried their point.
