Surprising Shrinkage.

A writer on old Texas says, in THE
Evolution of a State" that in 1887 the
winter was cold and wet, and the set
tiers suffered for clothing. Buckskin
was sufficient while the weather kept
dry, but there was one great objection
to it as rainy day garment.
One afternoon a certain Jimmie, who
had not been long in the country, was
out with a surveying party, when there
came up drenching rain. Before they
could reach shelter the buckskin
breeches of the men were thoroughly
saturated. y hospitable house, rem
dered delightful by daughters and
young lady guests, opened its doors,
and the surveyors took shelter.
Jimmie was not acquainted with the
vagarieS of buckskin. and ON alighting
from his horse he was distressed to ind
his feet envelOped in the Shiny folds
of trouSer legs which had mysJeriously
heightened, and become as Cnmanage-
able as a jellyfsh. So lie took out his
knife and cut OF the extra length.
\ rouSing fire had been built in the
great open fireplace, and the boys drew
up in front OF it TO dry their clothing.
As the buckSk'n dried it began to
shrink. and the brooches made a per-
ceptibly retrOgrlde movement
Jim perceived it, and. bending down.
stretched them. TO the ill-concealed
amusement of those who had witnessed
I the amputation. But the buckskins

The Duke of Connaught though he
preserves. as neither the king nor any OF
his sister have done. a look Of real youth
and vigor, has Just entered his hfty-hrst
year. AS the godson and namesakc OF
the great Duke of Wellington it was
very early decided that Queen Victoria's
third son must have a military vocation,
and, fortunately for himself, he seems tc
have taken very kindly to the idea. His
refusal of the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha sue
cession caused no surprise among his
friends and those of his young son. but
Germany cynics declared that the Duke
Of Connaught did not forget in the cir
cumstance his close connection with the
Belgian throne, to which he is next heir
after Prince Albert of Flanders.

ent Swedish dynasty is said to have cx-

what wearied the good housewives whom
he called upon At one house he used
up his whole line of argument and

still said she was perfectly satisfied with
her regular grocer.
Then a happy thought struck him. and

Remarkable Tree in Germany.

Naturalists in Germany are much in
terested in Il wonderful old tree which
has been discovered near Homburg.
1t is an oak, and is notable not only on
account of its great bulk, but also for
the fact that at the base of the trunk
it is entirely hollow. The trunk, indeed,
is not more than eight or nine feet high,
but it is more than twenty feet in cir
conference. Some idea of the size of
it's interior may be gathered from the
fact that four persons recently found
ample room in it.
In winter the old oak looks very bare
and gaunt, but, according to peasants
in the neighbOrhood, who have known
it for many years, it regularly puts
forth new twigs and foliage every
spring, so that, ancient and decayed
though its trunk may be, tits neverthe-
less crowned and surrounded with
masses of green leaves, just as it.was
in the days of it's youth. The people
of Homburg are very proud of this nat
ural curiosity.

daringly, his heart beating faster than
ever, and almost lost his breath over
the great surprise which followed his
movement. She was watching him
anXiously. eagerly, her eyes dilating
with something like fear as he stood
there hesitating. The orchestra rum
bled out the prelude to his song again,
and this time he lifted up his voice and
sang
Something stirred in the back of his
throat, and it seemed as though bands,
hitherto unrecognized. were lOOsened;
something stirred under his heart and
he felt like a god rather than q man.
The marvellous burst of song that fol-
lowed was but the natural expression
of this new joy and freedom. And all
the "chilliness" had vanished from
those wonderful top notes.
He, too, was recalled three times, and
he reached the waiting-room again. the
