Truth Never Dull.

You say: "Truth is so dull" beg
your pardon. Truth Is the only thing
that is never dull, and the only means
by which we can escape from dullness.
Why? just consider. In all art, in all
science. in all literature It is the OBJ
servation of delicate nuances that
gives interest, that delivers from con-
ventionallty, that insures progress.
The conventional person says the sky
is blue, and probably paints It so. The
truthful person sees that the sky is
gray, pink, yellow, inky-black, pale.
green, and, no doubt, blue at certain
times, but not always even then of
the same unbroken shade of blue. He
paints or describes 1t as he sees 1t (;
he is an artist. . Just so 1t is In
our observation of character. How
careless, how inartiNtic, how unscien-
tific we are In our study %, in the
judgments we pass upon, in the Ian.

one another, and how great would be
our intellectual as well as moral gain,
how far more attractive our converse

EXPLAINS BlRD'S-EYE MAPLE
Fantastic Growth Really Due to the
Presence Of Buds That Grow
Beneath the Bark.

The bird's-eye maple Is produced by
casual or abnormal buds which have
their origin under the bark of the
trunk. The first buds of that kind
may develop when the tree is quite
small. They are rarely able to force
their way through the bark and be-
come branches, but they live many
years just under the bark, growing in
length as the trunk Increases In size,
but seldom appearing on the outside
Of the bark. If one bud dies another
will rise near 1t and continue the irri-
tatlon which produces the fantastic
growth known as the birds eye.
One Of the favOrite theories regard
ing bird's-eye has been that sapsuck-
ers, by pecking through the bark of
young naples, make scars which pro-
duce this figure during the succeeding
years. Bird-pecked hickory often has
been cited as an analogous case, but
the effect In the hickory is opposite
Of the birds eye In maple. The wood
is discolored and unsightly. Some
have attributed 1t to the action Of
frost, but no such connection exists. II
Is said.
