John P. Brown, secretary of the In.
fernational Society of Arboriculture
states that in generation the timber
supply of the country will be exhausted.
Many railroads have planted Catalpas
which they expect to use, when the
trees have matured, as material for
telegraph poles and cross-ties. The
wholesale destruction of the forests by
the many factories that use wood, such
as paper mills, furniture factories and
railroads, led to the organization about
sight years ago of this society, whose
object is to induce the planting of vast
forests and to interest the citizens of
the United States in arboriculture.

The Cocoanut Crab,

The cocoanut crab is one of the
oldest specimens of the whole crab
family. He lives in the south is
lands and makes diet of cocoanuts.
This species has pair of front legs
terminated with a strong pair OF
pinchers, and it is with these that
ne husks the nuts and breaks
through the weakest portion of the
shell. The crab begins by tearing
the husk, fiber by fiber, and always
at the end where the eyeholes of
the nut are situated, that being the
weakest place in the shell. When
the husk has been removed. the crab
commences hammering the shell
with his heavy claw and soon makes
an opening, through which he ex-
tracts the meat of the nut. Oar

HEROIC TREATMENT.
The Remedies That Are Used by the
Doctors of China

Chinese doctors seem to delight
IN heroic measures.
In several diseases, notably rhex-
matism, neuralgia, govt, ulcers, car
buncles and diarrheal complaints.
they are very successful. The meth
cd In treating these troubles seems
to be liberal use of hot teas and
broths and a REIMBURSEMENT of all
other foods. In most of the foods
there is the simple tonic, ginseng.
In Others there are aperients which
are apparently impure epson salts.
One broth contained peppermint
leaves, chopped almonds, bay leaves,
honey, blood and wine.
The idea seems to be to drench
the entire system with hot water.
washing out the body in that way,
and relying upon the elements add
ed to the water for medicinal action
as well as nourishment.
Their treatment of, most forms of
dyspepsia is truly haoic. The pa
tient is laid at full length and the
doctor with his muscular hands
piInches the body. The pinching is
done with the thumb and forefnger.
The method, though cruel, has ex-
cellent results, and there is imme-
date relief and a speedy cure.
For catarrahal troubles they use
warm solutions of astringents, rem
dered aseptic by peppermint and
similar oil, and where there is pain,
as in nasal catarrh, they use oil, in
which is put tincture of opium.
For some forms of dyspepsia they
burn paper. The paper burned is a
thick yellow tissue, which when
burned leaves fluffy black ash,
which is probably one-half carbon
and the rest silica and mineral salts.
Occasionally they write talismanic
characters with colored pencils on
the paper. Different pencils are
used, and each is made of a differ
ent substance, which when burned
exercises chemical or medicinal
influence.
When it is burned and diffused in
a cup of tea the ingredients pass
into the stomach along with the
carbon of the paper.-Kansas City

The Norman's Dream.

The Normans are called the Yam
KEGS of France, which is a compli-
ment to them, no doubt, though it
sometimes has reference to their
extremely thrifty habits and to the
craft which they employ in evading
a service that may cost them some
thing. It is related that one good
Norman farmer went early one
morning to another's house and
found him still in bed.
Art thou asleep, neighbor ?" he
asked, somewhat falteringly, in the
tone of man who is going to ask
a favor.
IF | were not asleep" murmured
the other from his bed, "what prob
ably wouldst thou want of me?"
ITO borrow thy donkey to 90 to
the fair at Gisors."
We'll, then, neighbor, am sound
asleep"
Bah. Thou canst not be asleep
when thou talkest to me"
Nonsense! 1t is only a dream
! am having, neighbor."
And the other had to go away
without the donkey.

MOVABLE TYPES.
The Honor of Their Invention BeiowQe
to the Far East.

China, the ''cradle of the arts, !"
claims the honor Of the invention Of
printing. Away back In the year
SAB, nearly 1000 years before Gut
enberg issued the first volume Of
his famous Bible, the Chinese we're
using the block system" of print
ing, and in the tenth century, 400
years before Europe had become &C.
quainted with the "art preserva-
tive" the almond eyed Celestial
typos were better versed in the sci
ence of setting movable types than
were the American printers Of the
days of Benjamin Franklin. The
''block system" of printing, which
was so well known in the Flowery
Kingdom less than six centuries
after the birth of Christ, did not
find its way to Europe until about
the first of the fifteenth century,
when devotional manuals" each
bearing portrait and few lines
in printing, became popular. These
cuts and printed lines were taken
from engravings made on single
block, the very earliest dated speci-
men of that character made in Flu
rope bearing date of 1923.
There is still a question as to
who was the first European printer
to use the movable types. Tits not
a question as to what European in
vented movable types, for it is
known that the honor belongs in
the far east. The honor of being
the first to adopt the system appears
to rest between Laurenz Coster of
HARLEM (died 1440), John Faust
and John Gutenberg. In the above
list some include the name of Peter
Schoffer, a son-in-law of Faust.
Dutch authorities claim that Coster
was the first to use the movable
types and that Gutenberg, who was
at one time workman in Coster's
shop, stole the idea from him. The
Germans give Gutenberg the honor
and set the date Of his first success
full practice Of. the art at 1886. The
first entire European book ever
| printed from movable types bears
the name of Johann Faust on its
title page. 1t bore the name of
'Tractatus Petri Hispani'' and was
printed at Mentz in 1442. As Gut
enberg did not put his name on all
of his books or the date when they
were issued, there is some doubt
when the first appeared or how
many were issued. Gutenberg's
great work was his Latin Bible,
which appeared in 1856 and which
is often catalogued as the "6rst
book ever printed on movable
types"

His Famous Shot.

A sporting gentleman, who had
the reputation of being a very bad
shot, invited some of his friends to

target painted on a barn door, with
bullet right in the bullseye.
This he claimed to have shot at
1000 yards distance.

AcR0BATlC DANCING.
IL Was Regarded by the Ancient Greeks
With Contempt.

A passage in Herodotus tells us
with what contempt the Greeks
treated mere acrobatic dancing and
how inferior il was considered to be
to the higher art. A certain Hip
pocleides, having been asked to
show one of the many accomplish
nents which entitled him to be-
come the husband of the daughter
OF the tyrant of Sicyon, proceeded
to display himself in the dance, and
having commenced with a stately
measure he then wished to show his
wonderful agility, and SO we'll did
he succeed that Clisthenes, the ty-
rant, angrily exclaimed, "Son of
Tisander, you have danced away
your marriagev refusing to have a
son-in-law who was so little of an
artist that he could make boast of
his mere skill. Socrates, too, had
great dislike to the wonderful
tricks" which dancers could perform
with their bodies and thought them
very ugly. What would have been
his disgust could he have seen some
of our modern contortions? As in
all great art, the Greeks in their
dancing made use of mechanical
means only in so far as they could
assist in carrying out the artists in
spiration. The true artist should not
be so hampered by any technical diff
ticulties. He must be an absolute
master Of technique" but never
should he allow that technique" to
be the end and aim of his art. BY
so doing he forfeits all claim to the
title of artist in the real and high
est sense of that much abused word.
Looking, then, at the subject
from this point of view, we can see
the gulf which separates modern
dancing from the Greek dancing.
The modern term denotes some
thing entirely mechanical, however
pretty and pleasing our dancing
masters cOntrive to make it by hav-
ing rhythmical acrobatic feats per-
formed by beautiful executants.
Dancing in the Greek sense must be
interpreted quite differently. 1t is
rhythmical movement-and so far
it is mechanical-but it is also pan
tomimic. 1t is the imitation of
words by gestures, the bodily ex-
preston of feeling.-Nineteenth
Century.

CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM.
In Their Origin Both Religions Are
Asiatic and Semitic.

In their origin Christianity and
Islam are both Asiatic, both Semit-
ic, and Jerusalem is but a few hun
dred miles from Mecca. In regard
to the number of their adherents
both have steadily increased from
the beginning to the present day.
But Mohammedanism has been
practically confined to Asia and At
RIGA, while Christianity has been
the religion of Europe and the new
world, and politically it rules now
over all the world, except China and
Turkey.
Mohammedanism has been identi-
fed with a stationary civilization
and Christianity with progressive
one. There was a time-from the
eighth century to the thirteenth
when science and philosophy -four
ished at Bagdad and Cordoya under
Moslem rule, while darkness reigned
in Europe. But Renan has shown
that this brilliant period was neither
Arabic nor Mohammedan in its spir-
it or origin, and, although his state
ments may admit of some modifca-
ton, it is certain that, however bril-
liant while it lasted, this period has
left no trace in the Moslem faith
unless it be in the philosophical
basis of Mohammedan law, while
Christianity has led the way in the
progress Of modern civilization.
Both OF these are positive reli-
gions Zach claims to rest upon a
divine revelation which is in its
nature final and Interchangeable. Yet
the one is stationary and the other
progressive The one is based upon
what it believes to be divine com
mands and the other upon divine
principles-just the difference that
there is between the law of Sinai
and the law of love, the Ten Com
mandments and the two. The ten
are specific and Interchangeable; the
two admit of ever new and progress
i've application.-Contemporary Re-
view.
