Trees of Great Age.

The lime tree at Morat, planted at
Fribourg on the day of the celebrated
battle. is one of the oldest trees in
Europe. This glorious event in the his
tory of Switzerland, having occurred in
14T6, the venerated tree, which is en-
circled by a coIonnade and of which
the aged branches are upheld by a
framework OF wood, must be almost
$50 years old.
The fir attains still greater age
In some of the most ancient forests
of Germany, situated on the summit of
the Wurzelburg in Thuringia. as many
as 700 annual layers have been counted
on some of the trees cut down there

according to the ancient myth. Pliny
even asserts that in his time the cele-.

to spring from the ground at the time
of the foundation of the city of Cecrops
was still to be seen in the citadel of
Athens.

Trees Slcw Development.

The slow development of the trunks
of certain trees ut once calls UP im-
ages of immobility and eternity. The
dragons blood tree of the Canarjes
awakens such thoughts. Thrice IA
nous for it's strange looks, its vast
size and its antiquity, this dragons
blood tree is equally so for the sta
tionary condition of its growth. In
the legend of Teneriffe we are told
that this singular tree was worshiped
by the Guanchcs, its original inhabi-
tants; and it is related that in the
Fifteenth century mass was celebrat-
ed in the interior of its trunk, fact
even lately attested by the vestiges
which were seen of a little altar.
This tree grows so slowly that af-
ter tolerably long interval of time
it was not possible to verify any
change in its circumference.

Chinese Idea of Assassination.

The Chinese have peculiar notions
concerning assassination. The man
VIII. killed the German minister, Won
Kettler, during the Boxer outbreak, is
looked on by the Chinese as national
martyr. The commemorative arch
which the Germans forced on ~ Chi
nese as a monument of their disgrace
for numbering the representative of a
foreign power. was understood by the
people at large to be lasting me-
mortal to the man who had committed
the deed.
When the arch was removed by
the Chinese after they declared war
on Germany, the people were of the
opinion that either he or one of his
family had committed some crime OF
such nature that the honor that had
been conferred on him had been with
drawn BIZ the government.

NOT VERY FAR FROM CORRECT
Marjorie's Theme" Short and to the
Point-Had at Least the Merit
of Conciseness.

The teacher had assigned a task TO
the children that was causing them
considerable trouble They were TO
write a short theme on what Makes
Great Cities having 10 minutes to
devote to the subject. Marjorie sat
chewing the end of her pencil, her
mind apparently blank. Five min
utes passed, and still she had not writ
ten a word. Then minutes went by
and Marjorie's paper was still blank.
Twelve minutes. Fourteen.
"Only one minute more, children"
the teacher announced. Fold your
papers lengthwise and write Your name
and the subject on the outside $50
All at once Marjorie came to action.
She wrote frantically and when the
final minute was up she handed her
paper in with the rest, correctly fold
ed and labeled. ~4-
Curiosity got the better of the teach
or. and at the first opportunity she
slipped Mariorie's paper out of the
pile on her desk. '2r
Marjorie Jones'" was written boldly
on the outside. "Subject-What Makes

The teacher opened the paper and
found therein one written word-cov-
ering the subject more or less ade-
auately. That word was:

TAKES HIGH RANK AS CRITIC
Friend Paid Tribute to James Hume
ker's Virtues as a Writer-Fcar-
less and Stimulating.

If one were to choose one word that
was to sum up all of Huneker's vir-
tues. one would say that he was re-
freshing, writes Norman L. Ryrne in
ScribnerS. He was an ineStimable
breath of fresh air that deranged the
musty rooms of a criticism grown
didactic and lifeless. Life and viSor
were typifed by his style-a sheen OF
sparkling phrases set in n rhythmical
prose that borrowed much from his
musical training.
He was well versed in the seven
arts. and if his knowledge of some or
them was not always profound, his
love of them was sincere, and the
manner in which he criticized each
one in terms of the other is cpptin-
ued delight to his reader. His taste,
entirely European in character, was
rarely at fault. He was taken in by
some things that were ephemeral, yet
he rarely failed to notice each rising
star of genius. His defense was fear
less and his article always Stimuiat-
ing. Never didactic never 'pedafftic, If
he was foand wanting in philosophical
ballast he did possess that sense or
esthetic value that the scholar too
often Lacks and that the critic must
have. That was Huneker's forte-his
taste and his verye.

STABLE BOY 10 STATESMAN
Engishnan Born in Humble circur'-
stances Made Place fer Himself
Among the Great

Perhaps no man of modern times
has passed more varied and roman
tic life than Thomas Ward, who com
menced life as a stable boy and who
later became famous as a statesman,
the intimate of kings and the player
of a prominent role at the court Of
Parma.
Ward, who was born at Yorkshire,
Eng, in 1910. entered the service OF
Prince Lichtenstein Of Hungary at an
early age, and soon made a name for
himself as n jockey In Vienna. In
1876 he was made master of the horse
at the court of the duke of Lucca,
proving his efficiency by reducing ex-
penses more than 80 per cent-be-
cause of which proof of his ability he
was sen; TO Florence on a confidential
mission of the highest Importance in
1913. But shortly afterward the
dukes rule was terminated by revo-
luton. and Ward became an active
agent of Austria. recovering the hered-
itary estates OF Parma and Placentia.
AS reward, he was made prime min
lister and sent as an envoy, irSt 10
Vienna and later 10 st. Petersburg.
After the assassination of the youth
full Charles III, whom the baron had
placed upon the throne Of Parma,
Ward retired from public life and
took to agricultural pursuits in Aus
tria.
When he died, carrying with him
many secrets connected with the lead
ing families of Europe, this man who
started as stable boy bore no less
than nineteen distinguished titles,
among them several conferred by the
reigning houses of Austria, Germany
and Russia.

THE RIGHT THING
dt TIE
RIGHT TIME
BINARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
ABUSING HOSPITALITY

TT Is the height of bad manners to
= try to drag business into your social
activities. But some young men real
ize tliis only after they find that they
have queered themselves with friends
and acquaintance by not having
learned this in time.
This does not mean that mans
friends and his social position may-not
ana do not very often stand him in
good stead when it comes to building
up business or profession. The young
lawyer, for instance, may so impress
his friends and their friends whom he
meets at their houses with his honesty
and shrewdncsS that when they hap
pen to need the services of a lawyer
they naturally turn TO him. Or more
often they become personally fond of
him and turn any professional bust
ness his way that they can, simply
through desire TO see him succeed.
So often a doctor builds up practice
through the influence of friends and
acquaintance.
But il would be quite another mat
ter for q young lawyer when at the
house of a friend in any way TO at
tempt TO gain the patronage of any
other of the guests.
one young man l know, who is ilav-
ipg an uphill time gaining his pro-
fession..i education, was persuaded by
the promoters of q stock-selling enter
prise that he could sell enough stock
in the evening among his friends to
pay all his educational expenses. Con
WINGED of the merits of the various
sorts of stock that this enterprise is
promoting, this young man never
misses a chance when lie is invited TO
the house of a friend TO sell stock
either to his host or To one OF the other
guests. He even tried TO persuade a
young woman with whom he had just
been dancing that It would be to her
advantage 10 invest some of her saw
ings in one of these ventures in which
he was interested.
Needless to say this young man is
not asked to SO many houses as lie
used TO he and if he does not mend
his manners he will find himself really
taboo in the little circles where he
once enjoyed an eHviable popularity.

Indians Mystery Carving.

dumb Chippewa Indian at White
Earth reservation.
Il tide small whisky bottle are the
figures of boy and dog standing be

construction is of wood. which is
brightly coIored. How the Indian got
all his figures through the narrow
neck of the bottle, and how he got
his grouping arranged and stuck TO
gether is a mystery. Even the neck
of the bottle is corked with big
wooden plug on the inside as well as
on the outside.
Nobody knows how the Indian got
the wood inside the bottle, and the In
dian, being dumb, never told.

where an article is imported into one

STORIES TOLD OF WEBSTER
interesting to Learn That Marvellous
Orator Was, After All, Much
Like the Ordinary Man.

We hear so much about the leonine
appearance and the 'godlike elo-
quence' of Daniel Webster that 1t is
refreshing 10 read an anecdote that
presents the man in a more human and
less imposing light.
once, says a chronicler OF life in
old Washington, Webster arrived late
at a concert that the famous Jenny
Lind was giving and entered just as
she was TO sing Hail Columbia as
an encore. When she sang the first
note Webster jumped 10 his feet, and
when She reached the chorus he Joined
his powerful bass voice with hers. In
vain Mrs. Webster tried To drag him
back into his seat. He supported the
singer in every chorus; and each time
when the song was ended he made
deep bow TO her and waved his hat.
Miss Lind curtsied 70 him in return.
and he bowed again. To the delight
of the audience they continued the lit
tie comedy of etiquette for some time.
one day when Webster was going TO
make IAN address his wife brought
their little son TO hear his father. The
orator began in the thunderous tone
for which he was famous. "Will any
man dare TO say" he demanded and
then paused 10 sweep his GREATNESS
audience with Jovian glance.
But the climax OF this awe-inspiring
sentence was lost in gale of laugh
ter, for !, wee voice promptly piped
from the gallery: '0h, no, papa, no,
no!"-Youth's Companion.
