1t is wonderful to contemplate the
amount OF free copy constantly re-
ceived by the newspaper offices these
latter days. Certain publicity bu-
reaus seem to be trying TO work free
advertising scheme by sending ready
made paragraphs for publication to
the press dll over the country. Some
of this reading matter is well con-
structed and would seem to be news
IL it were not for the fact that tue
c,ior OF free Advertising shows pretty
pain. Some OF the railroad compa-
nies, the big expositions, the oppon-
ents OF municipal ownership and va
rious Others are in the game.-Fowler

Lace-Bark.

There are in all about half q dozen
lace-bark trees in the world, so called
because the inner bark yields a nat
ural lace in ready-made sheet form,
which can be made up In serviceable
articles of apparel. Only four of
these curious species of trees are of
much practical value. Tourists who
have stopped at Hawaii or Samoa
may recall the lace-bark clothing of
the natives-clothing of neat brown
color when new, of remarkable
strength and of a fragrant odor, like
freshly cured tobacco leaf. The ma
tive tapa cloth, as it is called, is made
from the bark of the brusonetia papi-
rifera, but it is not usually included
among the real lace-bark trees.
