SOME MEN GROW ON TREES
This Is the Belief of an Indian and
Some other Tribes.

The Sioux Indians still share with
the old Aryan and Semitic tribes in the
belief that there are trees that bring
forth hunSn beings and others that
bear various portions of the human
body, and in the fourteenth century
an Italian traveller, on arriving at Nal
abar, was told by the natives that the
country abounded with tree that
bore men and women. The latter were
attached to the limbs by the neither eX-
tremities and were full formed when
the wind blew, but when the wind died
out they soon withered. These speci-
mems of humanity reached the length
or height of three feet.
In the first book of the Mahadharata
mention is made of forms of dwarfS
that were to be found on large fig
tree. The Arabs are still strong in the
belief that somewhere in the southern
ocean there is a tree that bears a nut
that resembles the face of a man and
when in its fullneSs the mouth opens
and gives voice to the cry: "Wak!
Wax" The Chinese reverse the order
of things and, instead of believing that
the trees give birth to men, claim that
in the beginning the herbs and grass
sprang from the hair of the human
family. They have preserved the ira
dition. too, that somewhere within the
borders of the beautiful Flowcry
Kingdom there is a wonderful lake by
whose margin grew trees whose leaves
developed into birds and also that, if
a jar he broken on the waters. birds of
the most brilliant plumage will at once
arise from the pieces and fly off
In central India there is a tribe call
ed Khatties that claim to have their
origin from Il stick of wood. When
the five sons of Pandu, the heroes
whose exploits are told in the Mahad-
harata, had become simple tenders of
sheep, Karna, their illegitimate broth

The present annual production in
this country of excelsior is about 10000

paper would be like. He is gwen a tree

TAKING IN MR.. MOODY.
How His Confidence Was Abused by
the Natives of bethany.

When -. l.. Moody went to Bethany
during his travels in the east, he was
very soft hearted over all the multi
tude of beggars there, not only because
the place is so unusual. but because he
was moved by it's beautiful traditions
He gave quantities of "backsheesh"
and then asked if any of the children
had the names of Mary and Martha.
Yes, indeed, they had. And that open
ed his pockets again.
The news of his generosity spread
through the village, and new claim
ants came until his visit seemed likely
to result in a fight for existence. The
case was getting desperate. and he
told the dragoman to call for silence
while he made an address. Then he
said:
Il have come 5000 miles to see this
little village of Bethany. 1t was a
place my Master loved to visit, and
have come TO see it because he loved
it. l am very glad to meet you all, but
now | want to be alone. have no
more backsheesh, and | bid you good
by"
A fine looking boy of 16 replied to the
address. He spoke fuently and with
the grace of an orator. Mr.. Moody
was delighted with the beginning of
his grafton. but not with its conclusion.
eve are glad to see the gentleman
and his friends who have come so far,
but the gentleman must not think that
his actions are equal to the Importance
of his visit. Six thousand miles is a
long way to come, and the gentleman
must have sacrificed much to make the
visit. In consequence it is natur.I for
us to expect that he would be munif-
cent in backsheesh. This he has not
been. and we now expect that he will
give us Il great deal more"
Mr. Moody was so Disguised that he
abandoned the situation entirely and
hurried away with his friends.
81 did think" said he, that boy had
soul above backshcesh."
"And did you think, too. that some
of the children were named Martha
and Nary he was asked.
'Certainly. Why not?'
Nothing: only they were all boys

BABY's PORTRAIT.


tSketched by his mother.]
A little head of shapcly mold,
Two baby eyes so bright and bold,
A dainty little nose;
Two little cheeks so round and fair,
With tiny dimples hiding there
Like dewdrops in a rose.
A little mouth so fragrant sweet,
A tiny dimping chin so neat,
And both just made to kiss;
Two cunning ears each in its place,
A baby forehead set with grace,
Whose photograph is this?
Two sturdy shoulders, broad and square,
Two chubby hands so fat and fair,
And cunning feet so coy;
A roguish smile for you and me,
Sweet baby ways; now, don't you see
The portrait of our boy?
