In Nassau, the capital city OF the
Bahama Islands, they say ''the tree
in the public square'-not the trees.
Now the public square of Nassau is
quite as large as that of most cities OF
the size, but there is only one tree in
it, and that tree literally fills the
square and spreads its shade over all
the public buildings in the neighbor-
hood. For it is the largest tree in
the world at its base, although it is
hardly taller that o three-story house.
1t is usually known as ceiba, or q
silk cotton tree. but the people OF the
low islands OF the West Indies call il
the hurricane tree. For no matter
matter how hard the wind blows it
cannot disturb the mighty buttressed
trunk Of the ceiba. In the hurricane
of last spring all the palms and many
of the other trees of Nassau were
overturned, but the great hurricane
tree, although it lost all its leaves, did
not lose so much as q branch. Its
trunk throws out great curving wing
like braces, some of them twenty feet
wide and nearly as high. These ex.
tend into the ground ON all sides and
brace the tree against all attack, while
the great branches throw a thick
shade overhead. In the tropic sun.
shine of midsummer hundreds, even
thousands, Of people gather in the
cool of its shadow. A very old picture
in the library at Nassau shows the
tree as big as it is at present and even
the oldest negro in the island cannot
remember when it was q bit smaller.

The EreaI Question.

In the recent discussion as to the
merits, respectively and relatively, of
white and brown bread, there appears
to be weighty leaning. on the part
of professionals, in favor of the form
err. They are firm in their belief, af-
ter having made elaborate investiga-
tions, that white bread is more nutri-
tious than the brown variety. No
denial is made that the latter has its
merits, namely, that it tends to re-
move the torpidity of the digestive
system, so frequent in persons OF Sc
dentary habits, supplying also mineral
matters, especially phosphate of lime,
so important in bone building. The
white bread, also, it is claimed, sup.
plies mineral matter, and as regards
fat, is said to afford larger proper
ton OF this essential food than the
brown bread. But the great point
uron which stress is laid in this dis
cussion is the necessity of Judging
the value of fool by physiological
rather than by purely chemical cri-
terion. 1t is one thing to assume that
certain food shows under analysis a
large proportion of this or that nutri.
ment, and quite another to assert that
it can be easily assimilated, or, in
other words, that its nutriments can
be easily obtained by the body for the
ultimate purpose of nourishment. In
this latter respect, white bread is
considered superior by many to the
brown or whole wheat article.

Shaved by Their Wives.

Snrpl isel to hear that wives shave
their husbands? Well, l know several
who do and the husbands report that
it is just the thing. They are saved
the loss of time that they must suffer
at the barber shop and they are saved
the expense, too, which is quite lit
tie item. How do the wives happen
to do it? Well, this is what one of
them said to me the other day:
"'Not long after we were married
my husband complaining that he had
to lose so much time waiting for his
turn at the barber shop suggested
in fun that I shave him. He dared
me- to do it. did it, and he liked it
30 we'll that he wanted me to keep it
up. I consented, but insisted that
he should pay me good round price.
He agreed to give me quarter each
time, and SO have been shaving him
two or three times week for 20 years. !"

Painless Vaccination.

Vaccination without pain or inaam-
nation is the latest departure in local
medical practice. The process is the
result Of q theory evolved by DR..
Leisher OF tho Pennsylvania Relief
and DR.. J. W. Stewart 1t is we'll
known to physicians that hundreds of
people abhor vaccination because OF
the paiu and inconvenience attending
the Inflammation which accompanies
vaccination under the old methods.
Accordingly, the physicians have been
experimenting with geatine disks,
which are placed over the point where
the virus is injected. The point OF
injection is thus made perfectly air
tight, excluding parasites and other
foreign matter calculated to produce
inflammation Consequently, the
beneficial results are obtained without
the soreness. A number OF patients
have submitted to the treatment, and
no annoyance has been experienced in
any case. School children have pur'
sued their studies as usual, free from
pain or Inconvenience. --Logansport

yer's Office than private sitting room.
"Now, I am going to stand behind
you, if you don't mind" he said, and
acted accordingly.
In obedience to his instructions
held the crystal in my lap with both
hands and looked intently at it. Once
I could not resist the temptation to
look behind me and see what he was
doing. He was standing with arms
extended, waving his hands about.
"Never mind me-" he said. "You
keep your eyes fixed on that crystal"
After that kept my eyes on the
crystal constantly. Presently a mist
seemed to shut out the point of light
ON which I was gazing. It was a
white mist at first, but turned to a
dark brown. Out of the mist pres.
emily came the gray glimmer of armor;
then above the armor I could make
out flesh tints; then the curling chest
nut hair, the peaked beard aud the
Inustache. The face was more clearly
defined than it was in the portrait I
had been looking ut.

"Yes," I answered. "And the
mustache is smaller and the hair
closer cropped. But it is wonderful
likeness, on the whole"
"It is" said Simcox. "And now
you know what an astral body is.
Let's go and have some oysters"
The whole thing was gone. I was
looking at the crystal ball once more.
So we went out and got some oysters.
Some months later Simcox himself
was gone. But got by mail marked

And yet

She Is more dear than lyric words

Wild brooks and threats OF summer birds
OF all We mean by poetry,
That rules the soul and charms the will,
She Is the deep epitome,

VIZ NO LONGER ROMANTIC.
Battle as Spect ,cle Has In lergone
Il Radical Change.

One fact impressively demonstrated
in the progress of the South African
war up to date is that the entire char
acter of warfare as spectacle has I'M
dergore radical change within re-
cent years. Battles have lost much
in picturesqueness and glamour. Even
so recently rs in the Franco Prussian
conflict of 1870 and in the Russo Turk
ish war of 1877 battles we're still heoric
subjects for the ainter. With some
notifications, they were quite as TO-
mantle and inspiring as those Of the
earliest recorded wars, when armies
advanc ID clad in steel armor and men
fought hand to hand. A battle in the
Franco Prussian war was tremendous
spectacle of serried masses OF close
ranked men. brilliant uniforms, toss
ing plumes and banners and officers
leading with sabers in the air and di'
rec.ing dashing charges.
The day for this kind OF warfare
has passed, and, as Frederic Villers
pointed out in recent article the
whole aspect of war, rs dramatic ex-
hibition, has changed. The engage
ments in South Africa bear no resem-
blance to those of past history. The
scene is unrelieyed by single dash
OF color. The soldiers and officers
alike wear costume of dun shade,
which blends easily into almost any
background. Not even a shoulder
strap is worn, and flags have been dis
carded. Troops are almost never
played into action, and no heroic
drummer boys lead the line of advance.
Officers and men alike carry rifles,
and there is no saber- The
thrilling spectacle of a frontal assault,
the advancing force marching rhyth-
mically shoulder to shoulder, is en-
tirely out Of the question.
In fact, war has been robbed. OF
most of its martial glory. 1t is mat
ter of business --of manual labor in
making trenches, of keeping the labor
ers fed, of having good hospital SER
vice and of taking rs few risks as pos
sible. The man who stands up to lie
shot at may be heroic, but ho doesn't
help win battles; he isn't fighting on
modern lines. The modern soldier
has absolutely no chance at the kind
of fighting which consists in over
coming opposition by exercising his
own strength. A disinterested bullet
from wholly impartial and unpreju-
diced soldier mile away may drop
him while he is wetting his lips with
his canteen. His business is to take
the fewest possible risks, to work his
rife with mechanical precision and
put up with any hardships incidental
to the job. The modern soldier, in
fact, is no longer sculptor's model;
he is IN earnest laboring man, and
during working hours he looks the
part. Chicago Rec
