CALIFORNIA's BIG TREES.
They Were First Seen by White Man,
 John BidweII, In 1S41.

They Were First Seen by White Man,
 John BidweII, In 1941.
 It was on June 20, 1841, that John Bidwell discovered the "big trees of California. He was the first white man, so far as we know, who ever be held those monarchs of the forest.
 Nine years later hunter named Dowd was led into the company of the forest kings by a bear that he was chasing, and it was by Dowd that the knowledge of the monster trees was spread abroad, but to Bidwell belongs the distinction of having been the first civilized man to gaze upon the wonder ful trees.
 The "big trees," as the mighty se- Quoia are called, are found in Calave- ras county, Cal, chiefly in two groves" the Calaveras and the Mari posa, at an altitude of about 5000 feet above the sea. They are probably the remains of extensive woods belonging to a long past epoch. Unfortunately few of them are left, there being only a few hundred all told.
 These mighty conifers are easily the most remarkable of all trees both in age and in bulk. They are from POO to 400 feet in height and from 15 to 40 feet in diameter.-LouiSville Herald.

CHINESE ART.
Materials the Painter Uses and His
 Methods of Work.

Materials the Painter Uses and His
 Methods of Work.
 Chinese painting is very frequently described as calligraphic-that is to say. closely allied to or derived from handwriting. Inasmuch as Chinese handwriting is brush work of high order. it follows that every Chinese who can write well has the making of skilled mechanical artist in black and white. He has fine delicacy and 1exibility of touch. so that, if he pos sesses any bent for transferring to pa per representations of objects of na- ture or the imagination, he would be expected to produce work having a special character.
 The nature of the material used, such as slightly absorbent paper and sized silk and thin water color, also leads to work having special charac- ter. A member of any western race would have great difficulty in painting a picture on a kind of plotting paper with a Chinese pen filled with thin watery pigment. These characters, however, give the Chinese painting its chief charm. Birds and flowers and and figures are put in once and for all with no possibility of sub sequent touching up.
 They are painted with unerring strokes of the brush, and the result is B clean, vigorous and living picture. The Chinese artist. as a rule, spends a long time thinking out his picture and then rapidly dashes 1t in.-Chica- Zo News.

Many a Fracture Is Averted by Its
 Great Elasticity.
 Fortunately the human skull, al. though composed of bones, is elastic, much more so than one would think. The average male adult skull, in fact, says the Scientific American, is so elastic that it may be compressed laterally in diameter by a blow or by pressure, applied at the center of area, at right angles to the surface at that point, by one and half centimeters or about six -tenths of an inch, recovering It's original diameter and form without breakage.
 The material of which our bones is made Is so highly resistant that a cylindrical piece thereof only one square millimeter or O.OO155 square inch in area G. e., only LIPS m1llimeter or O.O44 inch in diameter) has tensic strength of fifteen kilograms or thirty three pounds avoirdupois, figuring out at about 21,3OO pounds per square inch.
 A similar sample of hard wood, test ed in the same manner, held only ten kilograms-that is, bone has 50 per cent more tensile strength than wood. A single bone fiber is shown in the hygienic exhibition, Dresden, support ing a weight of five Kilograms, or elev- en pounds avOirduDois.
