Tired Trees,

The condition of life in tropical
forest is sunlight, and to get to the
top, where alone there is sunlight, is
the constant aim of every tree. They
have no winters rest in the tropics,
and they are so hard at work all day
long that at night the trees seem quite
tired out. From dawn to sunset the
trees are hard at work. You can
almost see some of them growing, and,
as may naturally be supposed, they
must have a little rest at night. The
tree is thoroughly exhausted, its
branches lose their stiffness, while the
leaves droop and fold themselves to-
gether. Unlike those Of temperate eli
mates, the trees Of the tropics all,
more or less, show these signs Of ex-
haustion toward sunset.
