AN AGED BRITISH TREE.

The cowthorpe Oak, Reputed 500
Years Old, FIourishing in Yorkshire.
One of the oldest of British trees is
the Cowthorpe oak, which has been
standing near Wetherby in Yorkshire
for 500 years, according to veracious
chronicle. 1t is a tree that has been
described often and has figured in
works of fiction.
1t is related of this tree that On
occasion as many as forty persons
have been gathered within the hollow
of it's trunk, although it must be con-
fessed that some Of these were chill
dren. The most recent measurement
showed that it's girth of trunk at the
ground was "a feet inches and the
cavity was II feet by 9 feet.
The tree is not now so very tall,
reaching only 81 feet into the air.
There are twenty-five props about the
tree to support the falling branches.
The cavity has been noticeable cnly
since the begisning of the nineteenth
century. Many of the earlier meas
urements show that the tree once
was much greater In girth than now.
Aged as 1t is, the tree bore acorns
in 1901 and 1906. and always produces
"a fair amount.of foliage; In 1898 TN
acorn borne by the. Cowthorpec oak
was planted near by and. . tree IL

Cultivation of Plant There Is Beyond

The cultivation of the tobacco plant
has now passed beyond the expert

regarded as an actual industry.
For some years extensive" expert

guidance of the Irish department. Of
agriculture, and several experts have
been employed to superintend the cul.
tivation of the plants and the cure Of
the leaves.
To Colonel N. E. Everard, of Navan,
County Meath, belongs much Of the
credit for the development of this In
dustry. as for some years past he has
been keenly interested in the. growth
Of tobacco. In 1904 twenty acres on
his estate were devoted to this plant
and yield of 5000 pounds OF cured
leaf obtained.
It was an excellent quality and readi-
ly sold at half-penny a pound more
than the same class Of American leaf.
The following year the yield increased
enormously, as from thirteen and one
haaf acres $500 pounds were procured.
While the quality considerably improy-

The same year nine acres were grown

5000 ponds, and two and one-half
acres in County Louth,. which yielded
$500 pounds. 80.
Until this year only the cheaper
forms of tobacco have been cultivated,
to be employed in the manufacture of
"plug," but this season Colonel Ever.
ard is experimenting upon twenty-five
varieties, among which are some in

Now Branch Of Photographic Business
Tourists the Chief Customers.
One can hire harp or. a steam
boiler. q diving suit or typewriter.
In fact. there is scarcely any article
or appliance of use that one may not
hire. Among the comparatively later
additions TO the list are cameras.
1t might be supposed that anybody
sufficiently interested in photography
to want to take pictures would own a
camera, but not all SO interested do
own one. Here for instance, is a
man convalescing after a long illness,
and with some weeks Of idleness to
look forward to before he can go back
to work or business. He thinks he
would like to take some pictures on
the days when he can get out, and
he doesn't want to buy d camera, for
perhaps he would have no opportunity
to see it later. so he hires one for
his present use.
Then, too there are people who may
want to hire a camera for some tenn
porary business use, and there are
people owning cameras who may want
a bigger camera or one of another
sort from the one they own, for some
special purpose or occasion. But the
greater number of cameras rented are
hired by tourists. visitors from various
parts of the country who find when
they get here that they want to take
pictures.
One dealer in Photographic instru-
ments and supplies who rents cameras
will rent large instruments Of any
dimensions if sufficient time is given

Tinfoil, which is extensively used

made in the following manner: First,
a tin pipe is made of thickness pro-

ILLUSTRATING HER HINT.
How Isabel irving Acted Out Her sus-
Qestion.


gestion.
Miss Isabel Irving, the delightful
comedienne, was annoyed last season
by member of her company who
persisted in occupying the center of
the stage at every conceivable oppOr-
tunity; this, as every one knows. is
the inalienable right of the star The
man, who in other respects was most
excellent gentleman, had received
hints which should have been suffi-
cient, but he seemed unable to grasp
them. Miss Irving finally hit upon
a plan and proceeded to put it into ex-
ecution.
That evening she went to the actor
and said: "Mr -, l wish you would
come to the theater tomorrow morn
ing at II o'clock. / have bit of bust
ness which 1 would like to go over
with YOU"
The newt morning Miss Irving and
the stage carpenter, whom she had
pressed into service by small gratul-
ty, were waiting when the actor ap-
peared. Miss Irving got right down to
business.
will you sit here, Mr.. -?" she
asked. When he had done so, she took
the carpenter, caught up the lantern
and a hammer and went beneath the
stage. There she tapped and ham,
mered at every conceivable point of
the stage support. The process took
at least fifteen minutes
When she returned she said to the
waiting Thespian: 'Mr. -, l have
tested every one of the supports of the
at the sides and rear are just as strong
as those in the center You will,
therefore, be in no danger of falling
through if you keep away from the
middle"
