Of that city You remember the story
Of the two families who lived side by
side. One was rich and the other poor.
A board was broken In the fence, be-

were Dragging to the poor about the
lovely carpets, curtains, pianos and such

silence, the son Of the poor man curled
bis toes up through the dust and looked
around triumphantly, Il don't care, he
said I'VE got skunk under our barn.

The club rooms all afternoon, showing

Forest Grows oItsr!

In Its youth, the spruce forest oners
an.-inviting home to towering plants
both shrubs and herbs. The soil 10
moist and rich, consisting in large part
of decaying leaves and twigs.
The shade, though naSrly' uniform
IL not dense, and fieclsf'of sunshine
appear everywhere in it. The light Is
not strong enough 10 produce tangled
underground, but a Weil-developed
growth is found everywhere except In
the most shaded sr3ts.
The layer of shrubs and bushes con-
sists largely of the mountain maple,
rose and ninebark, among which are
scattered birches, gocseberries, rasp'
berries and viburnums. In spring the
ground is carpeted with Strawberries
Along the brooks white and yellow
violets are common. and orchids are
scattered here and there. In the sum-
mer flowers are abundant, gentians,
bluebells, goldenrods, daisies, column
bine and painted cups vying with each
other in giving color to the mass OF
green. In the shadier places, low ferns
abound, while the moist soil OF the
shadiest hooks is clothed with moses
and lichens.
AS the forest grows older, the shrubs
are the first plants to disappear be-
cause of the increasing shade. They
are followed after few years, first by
the taller herbs and then by the others
until only those flowers that require
little light are left. Even these persist
only in more open spots, and finally
disappear as the shade becomes uni.
formly dense.
A mature forest, 200 years old or
more, rarely allows even stray sun
beam to pass, and beneath it is twi-
light at MONDAY. A few evergreen
pirolas blossom in scattered groups.
Clusters of the coral root are found
frequently in bloom, but this is lear
less orchid that requires little or NO
light.
The ground is covered with a dense
layer of brown spruce needles, which
furnish home for toadstools and cup
fungi, and in the moisture places, for
Iichens and MOSES.
The forest has now reached its final
stage. 1t may still persist in this
form for several hundreds of years. In
deed, If it is not removed by an acct
dent, It is difficult to set limit to its
age.
In any event, forest can rarely live
1000 years, owing to the great weight
of the tree tops and the fact that de-
cay is constantly weakening the
trunks.-St. Nicholas.

The editor of great New York
daily declined to give much space to
the details of the English elections.
He said: "What does New York
care that a few English laborers
have been elected in England?'
This shows that the editor does not
know New York, nor understand his
business. New York is not indiffer-
ent to the most important political
event of the Anglo-Saxon world. If
there are those who do not realize
this. IAN editorial leader should point
it out. The differences between
republican and a democratic victory,
between English Liberals and Con-
servatives, is as nothing compared
with the significance of the appear
ance for the first time in either
England or America of an organ
lied political party to stand for
labor as opposed to capital and privi-
Plege. The former parties stand for
differences that are fading from
human thought. Labor and capital
politically arrayed stand for a cleav-
age that may go to the very bottom
of existing society.
