than large yellow pumpkin The Seeds usually planted
and upon these grow large yellow flowers These flowers
shaped something like petunia blossoms, but are
times larger Soon there appears where the coroa
joins the stem, little green pumpkin about large
marble. This pumpkin grows till it becomes about as

TWO LITTLE CASTAWAYS.

Ever since was old enough to realize what
sentiment is I have had deep feeling for the
basque flower. I we'll remember that one day,
long ago when I was little fellow, I was
severely punished by my teacher for mischief,
and then sent out Of the schoolroom. I thought
I was an outcast and no one in the world
cared for me, so would just 60 off somewhere
and be horsetrader because [ was very fond
of horses.
- That was all right, but I had not gone
great way before I began to get tired, hav-
ing walked 21a miles that morning from home
to school, But as [ had gone over hill that
shut the schoolhouse from sight, felt as tho
I were free from persecution; so lay down.
not noticing where I lay, and was soon fast
asleep. I did not sleep long, and upon awak-
ening looked around in surprise, wondering
where I was When my gaze turned to a
poor, little, lone basque flower / went over
and lay down beside it. ''Two little cast
aways,'' told it, and tho it could not speak,
I knew it heard and sympathized. I could
not go and leave it, so gently breaking off the
stem I took it with me.
The blossom has little beauty or perfume,
but it has an association which almost moves
me to tears. Beauty may be attained by
some, while others have delightful per
fume; but there is no flower that has the
place in my heart of the first volunteer of

| ecause I get the sap and make sugar or

oak better than the maple because he says

and have nearly as much shade The maple
tree is very useful tree. It is a splendid
shade tree all summer and in autumn it's leaves

THE HOME OF WILD THINGS,

I like the mighty old oak tree, for know
it the BEST I call it the king Of trees. I
like to play or read in its SHADE and see it's
mighty branches swinging in the breeze as
tho they would break, and hear the saucy
bluejay scold at everything he sees, and see
the robins building their nests in it. The
most fun of all is to see the squirrels come
jumping along to get their winter store and
see them FILL their pockets full Of acorns.
They do not forget the old oak tree, no, not
any more than l. The crow comes, also, to
visit with a cav, cav, cav, to help the squir-
rels knock the acorns off. And sometimes
one feels them fall like hail storm coming
on. In the summer time their ivy-green
leaves shine Like diamonds in the sun, and
In the fall when Jack Frost comes playing
around with his paintbrush, he paints the oak

tree knows that it needs rest to get ready

useful for other things besides providing
food for the squirrels. It is used for making
beautiful furniture, wagons and machinery.

THE PASSING OF TIE PINE.

Of all the great variety of trees that grow
in our vast country, I think the pine is my
favorite. From the time the pine is a little
shrub till it natures into great giant of
the forest, towering from one hundred to two
hundred feet from the ground, it can be made
useful. At this period Of the year we espe-
cially think of the pine, for in many home
filed with Christmas cheer we will find
small pine doing duty Christmas tree,
presenting the one green vestige of summer
left. It has well been named ''evergreen, -
for it is the only tree that holds its green
crest proudly aloof from winters onslaughts.
We have our pine doing another service,
much greater than the former, as feature
in the commercial world, for most every mer-
chairman or warship has one of these stately
giants transplanted on its own deck, doing
duty as well as his smaller cousin does on
Christmas. Besides this, where do our tar
and valuable lumber come FRONT Here we
find our friend providing for us again. And

whispering pines, has learned theme to

The "Hea. hen Chinee.''

In a Chinese laundry in this city
is prominently displayed sign
which reads:
"Please don't use profane language
in here.'
We doubt if there is a business
house, store, or manufacturing plant
in the Twin-City or State that thus
publicly calls attention to patrons
of objection to the use of profanity,
while in many it is not uncommon
to hear such expressions by employer
and employee. Truly when the
''heathen Chinee'' comes into our
midst and sets us such an example
as the above It is time to examine
the religion that We profess and get
a hump upon ourselves.-Union Re-
