the secrets OF their manufacture The
stems Of certain trees-among which the
myrtle seems to be a favorite-have been
bored completely through their length
without destroying che vitality. Through
the channel thus formed the stems OF
suitable young plants are carried up, the
whole in due time having the appearance
of composite head growing from a sin
gle stock IT IS an old, old trick. which
can only excite the indignation of intelli-
gent minds OF course. the Chinese are
adopts in the production of all kinds OF
false whimsical growths upon trees. Their
famous Finger fruit Is well known to
travellers, but it is never reproduced on
the same tree when II has once passed in

The topiary gardener has I'm his time
played many curious tricks upon the
heads Of his subjects; but the fashion Is
dead. and we may the more readily for
give him. seeing that he never sought to
interfere with their vital economy. The
painful experiment OF converting the ivy
into a standard tree WAS once freely in
dulged in, but the persistent creeper
seems at last 60 have worn out the pa
thence OF It's prosecutors. In the last
century thcre was a considerable demand
by cabinet makers for curious kind OF
veined oak known in the trade as green
ebony" This particular marking was pro-
duced by the severe twisting" to which
the young growing trees were subjected.
Such methods would seem to demand IAN
act for the prevention OF cruelty to vege-
tables" Happily. no such enactment is
now called for. To obstruct or paralyze
healthy natural growths for the creation
of mere curiosity" Is an inherently
vicious system. little likely to gain any
real footing among us.

Of worshiping with her. The pastor read
the list Psalm and preached from Gen,
28:l5. ~ am with thee and will keep
thee in all places, whittier thy goest."
1t was precious service and all felt it
was good to be there. A word from her
seems as "from above" since she is more
in Heaven in thought and desire than
here.
Her christian life stands "a light OF
the world" a witness for Christ; her tes-
timony convincing, her example consis-
tent, her presence benediction, her
faith an inspiration to those with whom
she comes in touch. Many gave her
their hand that evening in testimony of
the power for good Of her life upon theirs.
When this poor lispring, stammering
tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler sweeter song
I'll sing thy power to save.

Zinc is usually quoted in tons and lead
by the 1000 pounds.
As to the minerals OF South Western
Kentucky, they are abundant, there is
scarcely adoubt but that the mineral
belt is one among the richest in zinc,
lead and fiuor spar in the United States.
l also believe that there is rich copper
mines in these counties too, but copper
being deep metal has not been reach
ed yet, but the formation is all right
here forit, and with sufficient railroad
transportation is destine to be one OF the
wealthiest sections Of our country. The
partial developments Of zinc here have
demonstrated already that the supply
is inexhaustible. Capitol is already flow
ing into the country for investment and
the people here have never known such
prosperous times. 1t is wonderful the
way properties are changing hands; pri-
ces are increasing every day as develop
ments go on. Livingston county is the
center OF attraction.
