There are two sisters in Detroit
about as unlike as two sisters could
be. One is a democratic young wom
an who likes people for themselves.
while the other is painfully exclusive
and will have nothingtodo with man
or woman who has not the proper
social brand.
I do believe," said the democratic
one the other day, "that you would
rather be 'swell' than be an angei."
'Certainly I would," replied the
other, "for any one who is good can
be an angel, but it requires a great
deal more than that to De swell.'

Tha Curious Baajraa Trsav
Botanists lonst ago voted th ban
yan tree of India a place in the cata
logue of wonderful vegetable produc
tion. In its infanoy it resembles oth
er trees in having single stem or
trunk and a dense neaa oi louage.
a th tree increases in Rise, how-
air at tha branches snread out hori-
sontally to such a wondrous extent
that they would be unable to support
fVinmonlvfla had not nature come to
the rescue with a remarkable provi
sion. To supply the necessary sup
port the branches of the parent stem
throw out here and there small fibrous
akoots. which immediately begin
Bnwino-downward toward the earth,
& a surprisingly short time they
reach the ground and take root and
nimiiv increase in size until they
sometimes rival the original trunk it
self This new trunk, with ita numerous
fibrous roots, renews the whole life
of the tree, otner new nana aim
shoots are rapidly thrown out until
finally what was owginauy nag
tree trunk becomes a considerable
forest, each limb and shoot of which
are curiously connected. Dr. Rox
burgh, the great East Indian traveler,
'says that he has seen forests a thou
sand yards in diameter which had all
grown from one parent stem. St
