Value Of Trees In Towns.

The planting Of trees in streets
and public places is a sure means OF
increasing the healthfulness Of .
town. as well as adding to its beauty.
But" says a writer in Building World.
mot all trees are suitable for town
planting: and in order to insure sue.
cess. a nursery In which to grow the
selected trees should be established
In the neighborhood. London appears
to be well provided In this respect
The London county council maintains
Its own nurseries, and large tracts Of
ground at Avery Hill are reserved for
rearing Of young trees. whose ulti.
mate destinations are the various
parks and public gardens of the
metropolis"

me: in fact was not quite as well as
when I left home.

II became plain that must change.
Then I began to use Grape-Nuts food

time I have felt as well and strong as
I ever did In my life.

I had hoped to carry off this triumph

Mrs Rasmussen said that her hus-

that ne believed Or cook had sue

lex A. COOK dincd tonight with King
Frederick at the summer palace a
few miles outside of Copenhagen
The king summoned Dr Cook to an
audience yesterday as formal court
csy. They had an hours talk and
while these royal audiences cannot,
according to etiquette, be minutely
described by members of the court,
Dr. Cook made such an impression
on the king that the latter immcd-
lately instructed the court chamber
lain to summon the explorer to dine
with him tonight
The king invited pr Cook to meet
him yesterday only after having the
government make the closest possible
investigation as to tn merits of his
story. All Danish explorers were
asked to give their opinions of Or
Cooks claims before the audience was
granted and their verdict was unaui-
mously in his favor.
The dinner was entirely the result
of the kings personal opinion re-
garding the explorer, who had the
seat on the kings right an honor
which Danes cannot remember hav-
ing been accorded another private per
son and members or the royal family
listened to his every word as he re-
counted the dangers ana Tivatious of
his polar journey.
Or Cook was immensely pleased
today by a telegram from President
TAFT, in which the president extended
his hearty concentrations. He had
to undergo another ordeal today be-
ing bombarded ON every side with
questions intended to test the accur-
acy of his affirmations.

reached his hotel at the end of the |
