TREES LIVE FOR CENTURIES
Six Thousand Years Is the Age of One
on the Canary Islands, and There
Are Numerous Others.

Knowing that some trees have
reached the age of several thousand
years, it is surprising that so many of
our shade trees should die so young
The age of dragon tree on one of
the Canary Islands is said to be more
than 5000 years; that of bald cy-
press in Mexico is believed to be more
than 1000 years, and that of an Eng
glish oak in Europe and big tree"
(Sequoia gigantea) in California is
known to be more than 1000 years.
Many trees also have attained to
enormous size, both in height and d.
ameter. The eucalyptus in Australia
is known to reach height of 47O feet
and the "big tree" the redwood, and
the Douglas fir in California often
grow to a height Of three hundred
feet. The sycamore and tulip tree in
the eastern states sometimes reach a
height of $50 feet. The tree of largest
diameter is found at the base of
Mount Etna, in Sicily. 1t is species
of chestnut and it's trunk is more than
sixty feet in diameter. Some people
claim this remarkable tree is the re-
suit of several individuals. The Orien-
tai sycamore comes next with dia-
meter of about forty feet.-From
Trees in Winter" by Blakeslee and
Jarvis.

Friends of Coleridee Place Memorial
In Church Where Once he
Aspired to Preach.

Coleridge's query to Lamb, Charles,
did you ever hear me preach?' and
Elias famous answer, 81 never heard
you do anything else" must have been
in the minds of the little company
which assembled the other day in the
High Street Unitarian church at
Shrewsbury, England, for the unvell-
ing of a memorial to the poet in COM
memoration of the fact that for three
Sundays in 1889 he preached there as
a candidate for the pastorate. One OF
his auditors on one of those Sundays
was William Hazlitt, who has left on
record that the manner Of the preach
er was like an eagle dallying with
the wind" Whether the regular mem
bers of the congregation were equally
impressed is not on record, but they
were not called upon to express their
views by voting, for an offer of pen
sion of hundred and fifty pounds a
year decided Coleridge to withdraw
from his candidature. That SO slight
an event in the poets life has now
been commemorated would seem to in
dictate revival Of interest in his
work. If that should prove to be the
case, perhaps something will be done
to do fit honor to the somewhat squat
i'd surroundings of his tomb at High
gate.-London Mail.

IN SIMPLE sELF.PR0TECTi0N
Evolution of "Washermen" Made Nee
sssary by Incorporating Atti-
tude of the Laundry People.

The shirtband buttonhole is the real
reason why the Y. M. G. A. of Phila-
delphia is encouraged to start
course of instruction for men in the
art Of washing clothes. 1t better
might be said that it is the back shirt
band buttonhole that is responsible
for the introduction into the class
room of the tub, the bluing bottle
the starch box and the ironing board.
There is one washerwoman for
every 200 of this countrys 1nhab-
itants, and there is laundry for
every 1000 thereof. Neither woman
nor laundry ever has been able to
learn that a man has to slip collar
button through the rear hole of the
shirtband. The washerwoman thinks
that a man pins his collar on, and
that if he doesn't he should be forced
TO. The laundry knows all about the
buttonhole, but it is at outs with It.
and seeks malevolently to destroy its
identity.
An inside band to protect the male
neck from chatting against the base OF
the back button is sewed on shirts
by all self-respecting shirtmakers. For
years it has been the unbreakable
habit of washerwomen and laundry
men to starch this band into close
boardlike union with the band back
of it. 1t takes a knife to effect the d.
vorce, and it is not complete until
several unstitched buttonholes have
been made by the blade of it. The
shirt that comes back once from the
wash is done for after the first sur
gical operation. The washladies and
the laundries can save their jobs and
discourage the higher education OF
males if they will spare their starch
and save the shirts.
