Occasionally Naturo performs a miracle soemiugly for no purpose but to keep in practice Oao ot such feats is tho growth ot a maple tree on the Courthouse tower at Greens- Iburg, Ind. About 10 years ago the1 syllables, treo started" from a seed that had lodged In tho masonry. Nourished by tho rnlns It grew a little ench year until now it is a sturdy treo with n trunK moro than two inches in di ameter nud a height ot about 12 feet. Grecnsburg claims tho honor of hnv lug tho only tree-bearing courthouse towor In the world. On every linnil Is somo ovidenco that Nature dislikes nakedness. Moss and other forms of growth are found clinging to tho face of rocks. Every where thcro is some uttempt on tho pnrt of tho great designer to clothe places which would bo othorwiso re pulsive In their barrenness. That a tree should grow in such an unusual place as a courthouse tow er, Is of course, a novelty. It was purely accidental that tho seed be- camo deposited. But tho fact bcrvcu. nevertheless, to bring out tho truth ot the old law. Take as an addition al Illustration n mud flat formed by a flood. AH former vegetation has been covered up; too deeply burled to permit of growing up to the surface. But tho water In flooding the laud has brought with it secda of ninny kinds. Soon tho ugly nppe&ranco dis appears beneath tho now growth. Tho nakeduess has been clothed. lly Number. Puzzled Dluer (to resluurant waiter) What have you got for dinner?
