The British ministers ct Santiago

hostilities were about to begin urged
that arbitration be tried first, In order.
II possible. to avoid the horrors OF a
long and cruel war.
The state departments of Chill and
the Argentine Republic agreed to this
and selected the king OF England to
act The facts were laid before King
Edward, who. after giving them care
full attention, wisely gave his opinion
that the territory In dispute should be
divided between the two nations. His
decision was received with great salts
faction and the war was averted.
Then II was suggested that treaty
Of arbitration to last for FIVE years be
signed. This was agreed to and such
a treaty is now in force.
Both the people of Chilli and those of
the Argentine Republic want no more
war. Both countries are again pros
porous. The armies of each nation are
being reduced almost to the limits of
a police force. Some OF the great war
ships have been sold: others have been
turned into merchant vessels for the

The Hickory Nut.

One OF the best known trees is the
shagbark or scaly bark hickory, SO
called because the bark has DISPOSE
ton to peel off in long loose strips
from the wood. This tree is found grow
ing from New Hampshire to South
Carolina. Its wood is very elastic and
is said to be hard as iron. The nuts are
whitish in color. The shagbark some
times grows to the height of 30 or 80
feet the leaves measuring about 20
inches. Varieties Of hickory are the
white heart or common hickory, butter
nut or swamp hickory, pig or hog nut
hickory and the nutmeg hickory. OF
the pignut hickory brooms are some
times made. The wood OF the common
hickory is esteemed for mechanical
purposes and for fuel. as 1t gives q
bright, cheerful fire.

face OF the plate with the solution. Be
sure that not one dry spot is left. Then
place rose, or other object. In the
center of the plate, and over this lower
a tin funnel, at the same time slowly

lifting the funnel and blowing until
you have a fair-sized film. Then, turn
ing the funnel at right angles, still
holding your mouth to 1t. lift 1t sud-

itself from the funnel.
For spinning a top inside bubble

careful, however. to use funnel large

bubble by the method explained in the
rose trick. Use large humming top
