A secret Of Authorship.

n you will take out the magazines
that came last month, or perhaps the
month before-it wouldn't do for me
to specify too closely-you will find In
one OF them an article signed by a
certain great statesman whom every
body in Washington knows. The edi-
tor Of that magazine wrote to the
great man. asking him to contribute.
The great man knew nothing what
ever about the subject suggested. He
isn't nearly SO wise as he Is famous,
anyway, and be asked newspaper
man he knew to write 1t for him. The
newspaper man was busy, but he
spoke to member Of his family, q fe.
male member, and she-well she just
exactly sat down and wrote an article
that has already been quoted far and
wide. The great man received the
credit, but / fancy the woman received
something more substantial. Anyway,
she is wearing a new fur coIIarette
that fairly makes one's mouth water

tries where it never freezes at all. and
in the North a great many fall before
the frost comes. Neither is 1t the au
tumn winds which make them fall
though they help little, like the frost
A wind strong enough to blow the
leaves of would take the twigs, too
and very likely uproot the tree.
The leaves fall simply because the
tree cuts them off. 1t has no use fogA
leaves in winter. 1t doesn't expect to
eat during the winter Sleep and there
fore does not need the food which the
leaves manufacture, and though it al
ways has to breathe it can breathe
through its roots and bark, just as hui
man beings can breathe through their
skins.
Besides being useless. the leaves
would also be dangerous il left on dur.
ing the winter. as they would catch
the snow and wind and thus break the
twigs and branches. Sometimes an
early snow finds the trees unprepared
and then they have very hard time
indeed. The snow collects on the
leaves and the weight breaks of great
branches as thick as ones arm. This
would happen every year if the tree
had not learned to take on its summer
clothes in good time.
The cutting-off process begins when
summer is at its height. Away back
in the dog days the trees began to grow
some cork cells between the leaf stem
and the twig. This was to prevent an
open wound when the leaf should fall,
for q tree can be wounded just like an
animal. Then, above the cork seal II
grew layer Of another kind OF cells
This is called the layer Of separation
or cutting-off layer, and can easily be
seen on the blackberry, where it forms
a yellowish green ring on the purple
leaf stalk.
There are three rows Of cells in thie
cutting loft layer. and after while the
middle one disssolves into muciIage, 50
that there is nothing left to hold the
leaf to the twig except some woody
threads which pass through the cut.
ting-off layer and through the layer OF
cork. Then the cells that are left be.
gin to swell. and push the leaf stem
away from the twig. until at last a
pun Of wind or frosty night snaps
the threads and the leaf falls to the
ground. The reason frosty nights help
in this work is because they freeze the
water that collects in the cutting-off
