Sugar maple" says this off,
cial f1y-leaf Of good tidings, is
in little danger of disappearing
from the American forests, for it
is a strong, vigorous, aggressive
tree, and, though not a fast
grower, is able to hold its own"
Glory to the sugar maplel
Glory to its American aggressive
ness! Without its presence our
world -envied autumn Landscapes
would be stripped of half their
unspeakable splendor.
But the sugar maple is going
to stay, for says the bulletin, "in
Michigan 1t is not unusual for
maple to take possession of land
from which pine or hardwoods
have been cut clean, and from
New England westward through
the Lake States, and southwark
to the Ohio and Potomac Rivers,
few other species are oftener seen
in woodlots."

Of a telephone is by means of vi

In the wireless phones the oscil-

these space waves by means of

without any special written

a certain standard Of intellect
and ethics. The man with an

r HAVE just been reading a
Government bulletin that has
filled me with renewed thank
fitness for the fact that ] had the
good fortune to spend my boy
hood in the country, where I made
the intimate acquaintance Of the
queen of American trees, the
sugar maple, which is far more
wonderful in it's gifts to mankind
than any of the Wanted monoco-
tvledons of the lazy tropics, with
their ready-made bread and
ready-soured milk.
II you have ever tapped" a
sugar maple and drank the juice
fresh from the tree; If you have
ever attended a sugar party" and
tasted the indescribable candy"
produced by throwing the boiling
syrup upon a bank Of fresh snow,
where It is quickly frozen into a
mama that seems to combine the
f1avors and perfumes of all the
fruits and flowers of Paradise; if
you have ever eaten, on your
morning pancakes, real, genuine,
unauthorized maple syrup-syr-
up that would pass even DR.. Wi
ley's inspection-syrup that would
turn sour in the mere presence
of a patent can; if among your
fathers treasures was a "secre-
tary," or big writing desk, made
of that most exquisite of cabinet
woods, "bird's-eye maple"-then
you will rejoice with me over the
news contained in the "agricultu-

One Of the Bravest Generals Who Fell
In the Civil War.

One Of the Bravest Generals Who Fell

a lion. In 1887 he was stationed at
Fort Dearborn, now the city Of Chica-
go. Later he studied cavalry tactics In
France.
On the breaking out of the war with
Mexico he recruited splendid troop
of cavalry, largely defraying the. ex-
penses from his private purse In
gallant charge at Churubusco he lost
an arm. At San Antonio he was bre-
vetted major for gallantry. In 1851 he
resigned from the army, travelled
around the world and settled in New
ark, N. J. In 1859 he went to France
and served under Napoleon in the
Italian war and won the cross of the
Legion of Honor at Solferino. He lived
In Paris awhile, but when the civil
war broke out Joined the Army OF the
Potomac. He was made major gen.
eral July Z, 1862. but was killed before
the commission reached him. He met
his death at the battle Of Chantilly,
having ridden right into the enemy's
lines. His remains were removed re-
Gently from Trinity cemetery, New
York city. to the National cemetery at
Arlington, Va.
