notorious tool Of the corporate inter-

bauchee. Had he been poor man he

TO TALK Of TREES
Prof. Thompson Will Discuss
Use and Care of Them
in Lecture.
1T WILL BE ILLUSTRATED

Prof. John F. Thompson, instructor
of botanical science in high school,
will address the Commercial club
Monday evening on the subject. Use
and Abuse of City Shade Trees" He
will illustrate his lecture by the use of
stereopticon views, and also propose,
in all probability, some matters of leg
islation which should be adopted. he
believes, for the future protection of
the trees.
Prof. Thompson knows by actual
count the number of shade trees in
the city. He also knows each variety
and the number of each used for
shade He will discuss the adapta-
bility of certain varieties in this city
and will recommend that instead of
mixing up varieties indiscriminately
along streets, that the same variet-
les be planted, thus obtaining a bet
ter effect and often better results.
In the last four or five years, there
has been much abuse of shade trees
in this city by bad trimming and the
inroads which linemen have made.
The lecture is open to all who wish
10 attend. Preceding the lecture a
short business session will be held
and S. K. Swayne. the new president,
will be inaugurated.

The idea is very general that smoke
smokeless achieves its greatest end.
but as 4 matter Of fact its smokeless
feature is incidental and was an ac-
cident.
When the idea of modern long range
guns was conceived it was at once ap-
parent that the old black powder lack
ed explosive force, and thousands of
experiments were made with various
chemicals to procure powder of high
explosive properties. and this was at
last accomplished.
When the new powder was tried.
much to the surprise Of every one it
was found that practically no smoke
followed the explosion. though this
could OF course have been predicted
had the question ever arisen. The
volume of smoke from black powder
is due mainly to the quantity Of char

The Art Of Overlooking.

Nobody can live long in the world
and not admit that the words moth
ing for nothing contain a sad amount
of truth. He is of course fool who
does not count the cost so far as the
future is concerned but scarcely less
a fool is he who does not overlook past
costs. If we have any good or de
lightful thing In this life. at all haz-
ards let us not faint our enjoyment by
considering what we gave for il. Was
it more than we could afford: Never
mind. We have afforded il; we have
made our purchase. Let US take OF
the ticket with the price and burn the
receipt. There are items in life's
ledger which must be overlooked I'M
less we would spend all our days
in balancing closed accounts.-London
