Fire Slowly Consuming Tree.

Flames issuing from the top of a
live redwood tree is the sight that
can be seen in the state park in the
Big Basin. This is the third time in
fourteen months that flames have
been visible. The fire is burning con.
stantly, but at times so slowly that
it is not perceptible. The heart of
the tree is decayed and it burns like
punk until the blaze burns hole
through the trunk. This forms a
vent and causes the smoldering EN-.
bers to burst into flames. The tree
was lao feet in height when it first
took fire. Now it is but ninety feet

EalIures and successes-

Men have two kinds of ambition
one for dollar-making, the other for
life-making. Some turn all their abil
ity, education. health and energy
toward the first of these-dollar
making-and call the result success
Others turn them toward the second
into character. usefulness, helpful
ness-life-making- the world
sometimes calls them failures; but
history calls them successes. No
price is too great to pay for an unfair
nished name.-o. S. Marden in Sue
