Probably not one person in a thous-
and knows just why leaves change their
color in the fall" remarked botaniss
the other day to reporter for the Wash
ington Star.
The green matter in the tissues OF a
leaf is composed Of two colors, red and
blue.
when the sap ceases to flow In the
autumn. the natural growth Of the tree
Is retarded and oxidation of the tissues
takes place. Under certain conditions
the green of the leaf changes to red;
under different aspects, it takes on
yellow or brown hue.
The difference in color is due TO the
difference in combinatlo of the original
constituents of the green tissues, and to
the varying condition OF climate, expos
ure and soil A dry, hot climate produces
more brilliant foliage than one that Is
damp and cool This is the reason that
American autumns are so much more
gorgeous than those of England and
Scotland.
The autumn foliage Of the central md
Western part of The country where it is
not as damp as on the ocean or gulf
coasts, the leaves are radiant with color
after the frost has touched them.
The Saint Paul globe., 1900-11-04

There are several things about leaves
however, that even science cannot ex,
plain. For instance, why one of two
trees. growing side by side. of the sar,e
age, and having the same exnosure
should take on brilliant red in the
fall and the other should turn yellow or
why one branch of a tree should ba
highly colored and the rest of the tree
nave only yellow tint, are questions
that are as impossible to answer as whv
one member of a family should be ner-
fectly healthy and another sick]v Ma
pies and oaks have the brightest colorS.
People should be careful not to
touch the gorgeous red and yellow an
tumn leaves of shrubs and climbing
plants which are not known to be harm-
less. ''''i ~

LAW OF LAUGHTER.

Thus. the same thing appears to us
both surprising and familiar. In this
condition rests the spirit of laughter.
The law of laughter. then. we think can
be formulated thus: That which causes
laughter is that which is at once, from
one point of view, absurd. and from
another, natural. A very common OBJ
servation will prove to us that it is only
necessary to suppress one point of view
in order to suppress laughter. 1t often
happens that the impulse to laugh does
not follow until some 1nstants after the
exciting causes has transpired. There
was no laughter Immediately because the
double bearing OF the case was not per-
ceived; there was only perpleXity regard
ing it. But as soon as the second mean
ing burst upon the mind. all was clear
and laughter followed.

FAVORABLE CONDITIONS.

OF the circumstances favoring laughter
the principal are the physical we'll being,
childhood and youth, the consciousness of
success or victory which one has just
gained, or of a danger which one has just
escaped Physical well-being disposes to
laughter because it renders the mind
keener and more active. We see and COM
prehend more quickly both the unusual
0nd the familiar. Children and youth
laugh more than older people because
their fresher minds find more unusual
things. Again, during youth, the mind.
more supple, more rapid, perceives more
rapidly Women generally laugh more
than men; it is because they have minds
nearly as supple and as clear as those of
young people. Victory disposes so
strongly to laughter that some philoso-
pliers, Hobbies among them, have sought
in it the cause of the laughter But it
is not to be found there. That which is
true is, that success stimulates the mind
gives it a sort of intoXication. Then

Wynken. Blynken, and Nod one night
Sailed off In a wooden shoe;
Sailed on river Of misty light
Into sea of dew.
The old moon asked the three.
1--WE have come to fish for the herring
That live in this beautiful sea;
Nests of silver and gold have we,'
Said Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.
The old moon laughed and sung a song,
AS they rocked in the wooden shoe
And the wind that sped them all night
long
Ruffied the waves Of dew;
The little stars were the herring fish
That lived in the beautiful sea.
NOW cast your nets wherever you wish,
But never afeared are We"
So cried the stars to the fishermen three,
Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod.
All night long their nets they threw
For the fish in the twinkling foam;
Then down from the sky came the wood
Bringing ring na;0f the fishermen home;
Twas all so pretty a sail, it seemed
As If it could not be;
And some folks thought twas a dream
they dreamed
OF sailing that beautiful sea;
But 1 shall name you the fishermen
three:
Wynken,
Blynken,
And Nod
Wynken and Blynlsen are two little eyes,
And Nod is a little head,
And the wooden shoe that sailed the skies
Is wee ones truDdle bed:
So shut your eyes while mother sings
Of wonderful sights that be,
And you shall see the beautiful things
AS you rock on the misty sea,
Where the old shoe rocked the fisher
men three,

Blynken,
And Nod.

Here Is a little genealogical problem
which perhaps some of our readers can
solve. A man writes to the Liverpool
Post, saying: 81 have, like the rest of
human beings, two parents They in
turn had each two. These four grand
parents had each two, and so on. Now,
If we take on an average four genera
tions to a century 33 generations have
passed away since the time of William
the Conqueror, and by the simple proc
ess of multiplying two by itself 33 times
1 find that at the date of the Norman
conquest 1 must have had $685., ,934, ,582 an
cestors of that generation. But this is
eight or nine times the total population OF
the globe at the present day and must be
fully 80 or 40 times the total number OF
human beings living in the eleventh CEN
tury, so that there must be fallacy in
my calculation somewhere. Can anybody
tell me, he asks. what the fallacN is?.,
