A REVERIE.
! child again,

Oh to be child again,
So light of heart, so blithe and gay;
With thoughts so happy, shine or rain,
AS tiow'rs are bright in month of May.
'ris true that oft child s sweet eye
Is dimmed at times with gath'ring tears
But shadows then flee quickly by
Abide not as in later years.
Oh to be child once more
In the merry spring of life
When shifting scenes that gleam and soar
Are free from care and free from strife.
If all those grown to ripper years
Were as free from guile and sin
AS is the child, in smiles and tears,
Then righteousness the world would win.

BEECH INITIATED BANYAN.

Mr.. II. c. Berndt, foreman in the
PILOT shop, who has for some years past
cultivated the art of photography with
very commendable success, has recently
produced photograph of a woodland
scene that contains feature that may
be appropriately called, if not natural
wonder at least freak of nature. The
picture shows a clump of primeval trees,
including beech and birch. The remark.
able phenomenon appears in TIE front of
the woods facing "A cleared area This
phenomenon, if so we may call it, is a
large tree having several stout, nearly.
parallel limbs extending to the left (as
you face the clump from the open area
at an angle of about II degrees with
the lower portion of the trunk. From
the lowest and the largest one the said
parallel limbs, at a distance of about six
feet from the trunk, descends an almos,
perpendicular limb that increases in
diameter downward and is fixed into
the ground whence it seems to rise IA an
individual or independent tree that
has perfectly grown into and, at the
junction, united with the said limb of
the larger tree.
Mr.. Berndt holds that the unique
spur tree above described originated a.
an independent tree growing upward
from the ground. The writer, however
is of the opinion that the beech described
took a notion, once upon time during
its early treehood', to play banyan and
that it, by dint of favorable conditions,
succeeded in initiating one of the ban,
yam stunts.
The tree in question probably has the
distinction of being the only one of its
kind, rs to the feature described in the
county, if not in the state. The clumI
of woods mentioned is found at Silver
Creek. The tree in question also shows
other peculiarities. These, however, are
not so pronounced as to warrant IL de.
