It is from the pen of James Foil'"s author of "The Traveling Salesman," and "The Commuters" which rank among the best and most successful comedies produced In re centy ears, but "The Chorus Lady" Is considered even the superior of the three.

A dozeti Jurge nails 'planted' among the roots of a tree ussure the tree of health, because the. vegetable Raps cause the oxidation of the Iron and the sap curries ferruginous salts through all the living cells and circu lation vessels. . ' , Not ninuy years ago one of tlie sights of a certain French cemetery was n tree, half green, half rust colored, lux uriantly leaved U(ion both sides and In flourishing condition. When the tree died and preparations were mmle for an examination of Its roots It was al most Impossible to exhume It. When all the ground around it was loosened and the . roots' were expo-Red' it was found that the tree when a suppling had clasped Its young roots around the baste of an' Iron balustrade -encircling a tomb. The roots of the tree hud run In and out .between the Iron bars of the fence. Exactly half of the tree had come In contact with the Iron, and that half put forth a growth luxuriant ly leaved In rusty brown. The half that hud not touched the Iron devel oped a growth of nonuitl coloring The tree as a whole was a fine speci men of healthy vegetnlije growih. but the side Impregnated tfj-.lron far ex ceeded the green side In Its output of vigorous leafage. Sulphate of Iron Is of little value when sprinkled on the leaves of a pick tree, but powdered iron has a marvel ous effect when introduced Into the tissues by means of hole hntvd In t':e trunk. The hole must lie filled with the powder and then ..corked with wooden plugs and well puttied over and around the plugs, so that none of the ionic "nn escape. To do it work the Iron, must be carried through the tree In the circulation of the sap. Hm per'8. I 7 The Crew of Columbus.
