Tree Sermon BY Uncle Bent.

OF course your wife will be as mad
as hornet all summer, your children
will run off to the neighbors. the dog
will crawl under the house, the cat
will go to the cellar, the chickens
will roost on the front porch or go in
to the fraid hole, while the broiling
summer sun will bake your house
through, while making your bed room
so hot that you will fairly sizzle, if
you don't have a lot of trees about
scraggly old snags don't count? What
you should have is a grove, park
about your place; and do you know
that right now is the time TO put out
trees? Right now, tomorrow. or the
next day. And don't do a muxy,
COLBY, slipshod job of it. Get good
saplings, put them out right and your
wife and children will bless you,
while your neighbors will say. THAT
is the kind of a man to have in the
neighborhood." Are you going to put
out any trees this spring?

Despite reports to the contrary,
there were no signs of a renewal of

Since then there have been eight

The maximum vertical amplitude of
the first was 35 millimetres. This
shock was preceded by tremors.
The population are much alarmed,
and many went to the country, where
they are still sleeping in tents at

Professor Heilprin is positive the
earthquake shocks have no connection
with the volcano. He says they are
due to slow settling of the bed of the
Caribbean sea.
