EVerEreR0s.

The leaves of Il green plant are chief
ly useful as feeding organs, which util-
iZe sunlight in building up plant sub
stance from water, carbonic acid gas
and simple salts. DeciduouS forms and
evergreens have been evolved on diff
ferent lines as regards foliage.
On the approach of autumn the for
mer withdraw all nutritious substances
into their trunks and branches. y layer
of cork is then developed across the
base of each leaf, which afterward
falls off, leaving Il neatly covered scar,
which excludes air and germs.
These changes do not take place in
evergreens, for these possess tough,
leathery leaves capable of resisting
frost, which are shed gradually all the
year round as they become old and eff
fete. Such plants use sunlight year
out, year in, while deciduOus trees and
shrubs do during the warm season
only, though they work very vigorous
ly in summer, getting ready the buds
which open the next spring and stor-
ing up starch and the like to serve as
food till the new leaves are unfolded
and ready for work.

On the Wrong Tack.

A young man in New York was deep
ly impressed with the beauties of Free
masonry and after considerable effort
mental and otherwise, had fitted him
self for the ceremony of initiation into
the order. He had heard of the goat"
and the "gridiron" and many other
things connected with the first degree
and was prepared to be surprised at
nothing. In the course of his first even
ing at the lodge he stepped on a tack,
which stuck into his foot and gave him
considerable pain. He said nothing
and made no effort to remove it, pain
full though it was. Two hours later,
when it seemed to him that there was
nothing more to come in the way of
initiation, he asked if he might take
the tack out of his foot. His sufferingS
were not ameIiOrated when he was
told that the tack had nothing to do
with the ceremOnies.-New York Post.
