Worlds Oldest Museum.

The oldest museum in the world
may be found in the city Of Nara, the
former capital of Japan. Since its
! foundation, in 756. 1t has gone through
all the changes of the Japanese en-
pire without one single addition to It's
collection. DR.. Otto Kummel is one
OF the few Europeans who were per.
mitted to visit this museum. It opens
It's doors but once a year, on q day
in spring. when a special committee
inspect the collection, and new list
Is made out. The museum contains
about 5000 articles, which are said
10 be the most beautiful specimens OF
decorative work which have ever been
produced by human hand, such as lac
quer ware, decorative furniture,
enamel ware, cambric-like fabric. etc.
The origin of the majority of the ar
ticles Is uncertain; some came from
China and others from Korea, but
most OF them appear to be of a more
exotic origin. All, however, came

Prince Michael was the only son
Of Louis de Lusignan, who was driven
from the throne of Cyprus by the
Turks in 1921. He had intrusted his
vast treasures to the Patriarch of
Constantinople. but the Turks confis.

to regain his throne. but in 1927 he
had to fee to Russia, where Car
Nicholas gave him q commission as

LIVING TOWER is UNIQUE
Captain Meeker Built 1t on the Tops
Of Four Redwood Trees in Cal
Ifornla.

What Is known as the Living Tow
er" (says writer In the Wide
World Magazine) stands on the very
summit of a hill more than two hun
dred feet high at Camp Meeker, a
summer resort in Sonoma county, Cal
ifornia. 1t was Captain Meeker, an
old pioneer, who first conceived the
idea of building tower on the very
summit of high hill near his hotel,
and while looking around one day for
a suitable site, he found four young
redwood trees standing about twelve
feet apart. representing a perfect
square. The trees were each about
one hundred and fifty feet high. Fifty
feet Of each top was Topped off, and
the work of building six stories was
then commenced. From top to bottom
the Living Tower was one hundred
feet high. Each floor is about twelve
by twelve feet, and rests on strong
curcly attached to the four trees by
means of steel cables and bolts. So
strongly was every part braced that
The whole structure does not move as
much as one would naturally suppose,
even when rocked by heavy winds.
In the building great care was taken
by the workmen to cut only the
branches growing on the inside Of the
square, and the trees were not chop
ped, mutilated, or weakened any more
than could possibly be avoided Lead
ing up from each story are broad
stairways. so that one may ascend
and descend with ease and perfect
safety, while around the edge OF each
floor are strong ratings to prevent ac-
cidents. Since this tower was COM
pleted, the trees have grown and
flourished just as well as before. This
living tower is claimed to be the only
one of its kind in the world.
