walters furnish the largest number Of

Probably the Most Curious Collection
>. Volumes In the World.
There Is perhaps one Of the most
curious collections of books In the
world to be found in small town on
the continent of Europe. says the Lon
don Tit-Bits. 1t is really a botanical
collection. Outwardly each volume pre-
sents the appearance Of a block of
wood, and that Is what 1t actually is.
But an examination reveals the fact
that 1t is also a complete history of
the particular tree which 1t represents.
At the back Of the book the bark
has been removed from space which
allows the scientific and the common
name of the tree to be placed as title
for the book. One side is formed from
the split wood Of the tree, showing its
grain and natural fracture. The other
side shows the wood when worked
smooth and vanished. One end shows
the grain as left by the saw and the
other the finely polished wood. On
opening the book it is found to con
tain the fruit, seeds. leaves and other
products of the tree. the moss which
usually grows upon its trunk and the
insects which feed upon the different
parts Of the tree. These are supple
mented by full description of the
tree. In fact, everything which has
bearing upon that particular tree Sc
cures place In the collection.

Many centuries ago a poor monk

dumb friendliness. when suddenly he
had an inspiration. He took out his
sheath knife. sheared two handfuls Of
wool from the sheep and placed one
In the heel Of either sandal. That
afternoon as he trudged along his feet
seemed light. his step springy. The
wool took the jar from his Spite. the

THE RUINS ON THE HILL.
Where Richard Of the Lion Heart
DweIt In France.

Perhaps the loveliest spot In nil the
winding miles of beauty along the
river Seine between Rouen and Paris
is Petit Andely. Ragged and shattered
looking. the stony hills rear proudly up
above the placid river and sleepy town.
and squarely upon its crest looms the
ruin of Richard the Lion Hearts Castle
Gallant. great. burst keep and
few bits of massive wall. Once the
castle Haunted its menacing leopard
standards against the blue and white
and gold of the Frankish skies. but
that was before Philippe Auguste
stormed and smashed 1t and smashed
the townsfolk while he was doing 1t.
Now, ghostly and wan, the stark
ruin shimmers upon its hill. with never
single spear to CLINT from keep or
barblcan. The spears are still grow
ing far below-the stout young poplars
OH the river bank and island sentinel
ing through golden days when the riv-
er Is cleaning Jade; In the fiery sun
sets, when 1t mirrors back every
sturdy limb and feathery frond. and
all the silent blue nights. when the
stars bend cracking down to whisper
and coquette and the ripples chuckle
softly against the rich brown banks

Thouohtisss Words.

Just what Is happening every day:
a gathering cloud on a sunny way.
All the fault of n careless word.
Lightly spoken and dumbly heard;
Fenthered shaft with a fatal art.
W!nsing its path to a tender heart
Little 1t matters which was wrong
If the dlseord drop In the tuneful song,
Little 1t matters which was right
If the shadow blot the household light.
When both are hasty. and each Is proud.
Both are to blame for the passing cloud.
Then let It pass. It's the wiser way
To kiss and be friends, nor mar tho day
With the evil blight OF a bootless strife.
To stain the spirit and dim the life
Let the lips that breathed and the ears
that heard
Take heed henceforth of the thoughtless
