The simplest way to find out the
height of a tree is one that civilized
man owes to one of the most primitive
races-the Australian bushmen. Stand
with your back toward the tree at a
point that you think the top Of the
tree would reach II the tree were felled.
Stoop down and look back between
your legs at the top of the tree. Move
forward or backward until you can
Just see the sky over the highest
branch; there make your mark. The
distance from that mark to the trunk
will be the height of the tree. There
may be some boys so built that they
cannot measure anything higher than
a goOseberry bush by this method, but
even these will find 1t an amusingly
accurate substitute for more scientific
methods.-Youth's Companion.

NAPOLEON and Tobacco.

Napoleon. who tried to smoke once
and then with dire results, instituted
the French tobacco monopoly, which
the German government now proposes
to adopt 30 far as cigarettes are con
eernad At a court function held early
in 1910 the emperor remarked a lady
wearing Jewels Of such magnihcence
that he inquired how her husband
made his money. "He Is a tobacco
merchant" was the reply. which led
him to seek further information as to
such profitable business. Before the
year expired Napoleon issued a decree
restricting the sale and manufacture
OF tobacco exclusively to the state. 1t
has remained a monopoly ever since
and for many years past has brought
in an annual revenue OF over Ss0.OOo.-

With beautiful ritualistic cere-

burning brightly around tri-colored
