In the book, "Under the Southern
Cross" written by AatuTin NJ. Ballou,
an American traveller. In the SOS Of
the last century, we read Of his estt-
mate Of the great trees of Australia,
according to the Christian Science
Monitor.
''It is In this colony of Australia that
the traveller finds the giant trees, con-
sidered to be n of the great wOn
ders Of our times. and which exceed
in dimensions those grand conifers Of
California in which Americans feel
such pride. These big trees of Victoria
are called the mountain ash, though
why so named we do not understand.
as they are not of that family. But
they are certainly the tallest trees in
the known world, often measuring 400
feet and more in height, and from
fifty to sixty feet in girth a couple Of
yards from the ground. When we say
that these trees exceed in dimensions
those of California we refer especial
ly to their height inasmuch as the
American trees equal them. II they
do not in some Instances surpass them
in circumference. The Australian
trees rise a hundred feet more or less
from the roots without putting forth a
lateral branch. On b%ehOlding them

How Miners Are Protected.

The United States bureau Of mines
operates ten mine-rescue railroad cars
which travel from mine to mine In the
different mining districts of the coun-

mine rescue work and assisting in
times of mine disasters and fires. In
addition the bureau maintains eight
fixed mine rescue stations, seven Of
which are equipped with auto rescue
trucks. available in the same manner
as the rescue cars.
This service to the mines and
miners has been a real and paying

NAN GIVEN UNIQUE SENTENCE
English Judge on Record as Ordering
Him TO Serve the Preceding
Day in Jail.

One Of the most famous members Of
the English bench was Judge William
Henry Maulp of the common pleas

the Detroit News recalls, that n day
when IA jury yawned through a long
series Of testimony, and finally when
the majority of the u good men and
true seemed on the verge of going TO
sleep and the rest to have lost all in
tereSt in the case. be abruptly closed
the testimony and the jury filed out.
Although the evidence proved the pris-
Oner innocent, and even the prosecut-
Ing attorney admitted It, the jury
brought in a verdict of guilty..
The judge being thus forced to give
sentence, did so as follows: "PrisOner
AT the bar, your counsel thinks you in
noccnt, the counsel for the prosecution
thinks you innocent, think YOU limo
cent. But a jury Of your countrymen
in the exercise of such common sense
as they possess, which does not seem
10 be much, have found you guilty,
stupidity enough, and II remains for
me to pass upon you the sentence of
the law. The sentence Is that you be
kept in Imprisonment for one day, and
that day TO be yesterday, therefore you

How Romans Built Roads.

Two thousand years ago the lto'
mans built roads, some of which are
still in active service. These roads
have lasted through the centuries sim
ply because of their massive construc.
ton. The Romans built four success.

grade. carefully prepared and drained.
First came the statlmcn or founda-
ton. then the roiius, next the nucleus
and finally the -pavimentum or wear.
ing surface. The statumen and paw.
mentum consisted of large fiat stones,
while the two intervening courses
were built of smaller stones laid In
lime mortar. To carry the chariot
and packhorse traffic OF Roman times,
these roads were seemingly ridiculous
~ heavy. yet the wisdom of the build
ers was amply demonstrated by the
500 years during which the Roman
road system formed the backbone Of
the transportation system Of the an
cieni empire.

Making Joss Stick.

The composition of candles called
joss sticks, which are used in all the
religious ceremonies of Buddhism, has
long remained a mystery, the prepare
ton of the sticks being intrusted TO
certain persons chosen from a limited
class. Not long ago, however, there
was learned the manner of making
joss sticks in lDdo-China. A stem Of
bamboo is rolled in a preparation
containing IA different odoriferous
drugs, two Of which are significant,
as showing a knowledge of chemical
and physical properties. These are
aconite. which serves to protect the
sticks against the attacks of rats
and mice, and camphor, which causes
them TO burn steadily without being
periodically extinguished.

EMPLOYMENT AND FOREIGN
TRADE

An official Of the National Foreign
Trade Council is quoted as saying
that the opportunity of labor for
steady employment is dependent up
on foreign trade meaning by this
the sale of American products in
foreign lands. This is rue 10 some
extent, but foreign trade affects the
American workman in whichever d.
rection the trade is moving. The
lSlndreds of thousands OF pounds of
wool coming into the United States
from Australia and other countries
means less employment for American
ranchmen. sheep tenders, sheep
shearers. Every yard OF cotton
cloth imported from England means
less employment for workers in
American mills. We must, Of course,
buy much abroad. We cannot be
sellers exclusively. As a nation Of
great natural resources, we shall
have a surplus Of some commodities
which we shall desire 10 market
abroad, but this surplus will be on
