They Were the Commonest Trades
I'm the Thirteenth Century.
The manufacture of leather in the
thirteenth century seems to have been
important, showing that leather jer-
klns and breeehes were commonly
worn We have 10 skynners, 40 bar
kars, saddelers, 3 cordeweners, 16T
souters (shoemakers) and 8 gloyers.
The surname feuster is trade name
denoting maker of pack saddles
The commonest trades are taylour
and smyth, since one lived in almost
every village The taylours number
407, of whom 40 are called by the
Latin name of cissor. In addition to
261 smyths, several are specialized.
There are two arusmyths, three loke-
smyths, three goldsmyths. five fferours
(shoeing smiths) and six marsbaIls
(farriers)
The wryghts wrought both in wood
and metal. The number catalogued is
1856, Of whom 81 are called by the Latin
name faber (French favre), one of the
few cases in which the Latin transla-
ton of trade name has become com
mon surname. The wryghts' trade, like
that of the smyths, was specialized.
The arkwryght made the great arks
or chests in which the clothes or meal
were stored, and we find plowwryght.
wheelwryght, two shippewryghts,
eleven cartwryghts, and two glass
wryghts (glaziers), who were probably
concerned with the windows of
churches. Glass windows in houses
were rare.
The bakesters are few (fifteen), sug-
costing that families baked their own
bread. There are twenty-six butchers
| (feshewer, bocher or carnifex), whence
Labouchere, while the surname potter
shows that this trade was In existence.

Some two months ago | had hui

OUR HARDWOOD FORESTS.
Only Limited Area to Supply the Con
stantIy Growing Demand.

1t win be remembered that there are
no hardwoods on the Pacific coast. Elk
cept in a comparatively small area in
southeastern Missouri and Arkansas the
hardwoods are not known west of the
Mississippi river, while in the states
north of the Ohio, where oak was former
~ abundant, there is none remaining
today. In fact the principal source OF
supply for these woods is the very linn
HE'D area In the higher mountains of
western North Carolina, part of Vir.
ginia, West Virginia, eastern Tennessee
and southeastern Kentucky, while from
Fifty times this entire area in the remain
ing states of the Union the demand is
constantly increasing.
Forest conditions in the Cumberland
mountains are far better than in other
portions Of the United States. The
rainfall is ample to secure most rapid
growths. The soil has not been eroded
20 such an extent as to make renewals
difficult.
An abundance Of low growing shrub
and heritage keep the soil cool and
moist and maintain soil fertility, while
much of the region contains fine stand
of the more valuable oaks, hickories,
poplar, hemlock and walnut The latter
can be quickly secured by supplying the
seed.--Arboriculture.

IMMORTALITY OF FRIENDSHIP.
BY Henry T. Cope

BY Henry z. Cope.
THAT where / am ye may be also"
John 1873.
Friends go on before, but friendships
abide The grave cuts no chasm :;
through love and through the dark door
of death runs warm and holds firm the
cable OF affection.
No voice may come to US; no eyes
look into ours; years may dim the
memory Of features. but still within us
is this cherished treasure of their love
and firm as eternity the faith that they
love us still.
We plant the flowers on the mounds
IN the churchyard not because we ever
think they are lying there, but because
our love for them must find some ex-
preston; yelling up within 1t must
work itself out at hands and finger tips.
Blinded by tears. watering those flow
ers, we weep not with sorrow that they
are gone, but with surfeit of emotion,
more the pain OF Joy than of bitter
ness. shat we can thus in such little
way express our love to them.
Here is a form of friendship alto
gether unaffected by the passing of the
Years or by the tides of fortune. 1t
has laid hold on that which is eternal.
Its bonds bind not flesh nor clay, but
sDtrit to spirit and heart to heart
Friendship deaes the fading leaf, the
whitening cheek, the devouring worm /;
ITS possessions are In personality, its
treasures are beyond moth and rust and
intruder,
This would be dark world for she
living. but for our love for the dead.

with all the most noted statesmen and
members of the cabinet since his APP
pointment He has shown all of them
his gardens, and very many of them
have returned, drawn not only by the
beauties of nature, but also by the
quaint humor and dry wit OF this vet
eran employee of the government.
The Botanical Gardens were orig
inally part of a grand scheme of
George Washington for a national col
lege and museum He selected the
present site in opposition to land
owner, David Burns, who, according TO
Washington, wanted to sell land Of his
own in another part Of the city for
the purpose. The place was formerly
swampy wilderness, and so it re-
manned until 1922, when the Botanical
Society was formed, and planting was
done on the dryer portions of the
square.
To the visitor it seems hard to be-
lieve that this bower of beautiful flow
ers and shrubs, the artistic and care
waving ferns and tender tropical plants
are thriving on what was at one time
the most uncultivated and widest plot
of unsightly marsh ground in the Dis
trct of Columbia. Such, however. is
true Previous to the reclamation of
the tract now comprising the gardens,
| Ii was the lowest piece of ground in
the city. and for this reason was often
! a basin which received the many over
| flows of the Potomac before the river
was dashed to its channel by the long
sea wall which stretches from the up
per wharves down to the farthest point
of land included in the arsenal reser.
walton.
1t was just eighty years ago in Had.
dington, Scotland, that Mr.. Smith was
born. Early in life he decided to make
the study of plants his vocation, and
/ after spending some time in LorG Isl
cho's famous gardens in his native
town he went TO Kew, where he gradu
ated in 1852. Having planned TO try
his fortune in the United States, hi
spent some time in Edinburgh in the
study of American conifera, and re

From there he was called 20 Wash
( ipgton TO reclaim eleven acres o

of which a nation might be proud.
