material and cannot nourish the plant
till after it reaches the leaves and is
chemically transformed by meeting the
carbonic gas of the air and the light
and heat necessary to this transfer
nation. Most of the water carrying
this crude sap escapes through the
openings in the leaves but not all of
it, for if all of it did thus escape the
tree would starve to death for the
simple reason that the food would
not go where it is needed. The pur-
pose of water in a tree is to do the
work of carrying. The sap does not
flow up through the same channel in
which it flows down on the outer side
where only growth goes on. The sap
does not flow up through the pith, as
was once thought to be the case, nor
through what we call the heart of the
tree for it is we'll known that tree
may be hollow and continue to grow
and bear fruit. The heart of the tree
merely strengthens it. When leaves
are off the tree, this flowing up and
down of the sap largely ceases. We
say largely ceases for there is some
evaporation through the pores in the
bark and some water escapes even in
the winter time. This evaporation will
continue to go on after limbs are cut
from the trees as has been shown by
weighing them occasionally after they
are cut off.
The way a tree takes in it's food
and transforms and then transports it
to where it is needed is to me a most
interesting study and also indicates
an Infinite Intelligence back of it,

declaring that negotiations are now iii
progress at Washington between
Japanese Ambassador Takahira and
Secy of state Root looking to the M
terchange of diplomatic notes definite-
ly outlining the policies Of both coun-
tries in regard to the Pacific and

Ing credence among the newspapers

be considered an authority on official
matters declared today that he had
reason to believe that such notes had
already actually been exchanged at
Washington but inquiries at the for
eign office, while failing to elicit a fiat
denial of the report cannot be said
to have brought out a direct contirmn-
ton. The officials of the American en-
bassy are also preserving q discreet
silence and no information could be
gained there.
These rumors are being widely dis
cussed about Toxic and 1t may be said
that the consensus of opinion tends to-
ward a full belief that the pending ex.
change of such notes Is a well found
ed report.
An ex-member or the cabinet and a
man who held Il high position under the
former ministry said today:
II am not in the confidence of the
present ministry concerning every step
that Is taken; but l have reason to
believe that the report that an ex
change of notes at Washington Is pend
ing Is well founded. Every one will
be pleased to receive news of the seal
ing of such a pact of friendship be-
tween the two countries as 1t will for
ever silence the mischief makers and
calamity howlers who for the past two
years have spared no effort TO promote
friction between America and Japan.

tly state the policies of both countries

merce generally, would give great i'm
