FAMINE IN TIMBER TREES.
, Growing; Scarcity of Wood Snitabie
for Afanafactarinsr Purposes.
It will be b.ut a few years before
durable timber becomes very much
dearer than It is at present. Good
chestnut and white oak posts are
worth now fifteen cents each, and red
cedar posts twenty cents apiece, un
dressed, and are hard to get at that.
Ten years from now the supply will be
much less. No more profitable use of
land can be made' than to plant wal
nut, chestnut, oak, hickory, spruce,
ash, maple, poplar, willow, locust and
other trees that have a value in the
arts for their timber. Plant the rough
land to trees. The eucalypts are now
our country more extensively than any
other exotic forest tree.
These trees are originally from Aus
tralia; they are known there under
the name of antlfever trees, as by
their rapid growth and large amount
of foliage- they absorb the poisonous
gases of the swamps, making the air
, pure aud the cllmatt healthy. In Cal
ifornia, Kansas and Indiana tracts of
land several thousand acres in area
have been planted with seedlings , of
the eucalyptus rostrata for fuel, rail
road ties and for windbreaks. On ac
count of their rapid growth they make
desirable shade trees for the dwelling
and pasture lots. In many parts of
the southwest the eucalypts are util
ized to advantage to furnish shade in
, pastures. If set along the fences and
along the Irrigating ditches they can
be made to protect the cattle In the
pasture without at any time interfer
ing with farm work. Seedlings may
be had from the nurserymen in 100
lots at five cents each. There are
some thirty different varieties, and all
of them are said to grow equally well

The late W. E. Henley once met
Robert Louis Stevenson, and found his
friend distressed because he was not a
Voltaire or a Dumas, though he had
an equipment which ought to have
made him their peer. Stevenson put
his "failure" down to the weakness of
his lungs. ' "Perhaps .you are right,
Lewis," said Henley; "I've always felt
that, if I had not been a blessed crip

my hand and hurled it Into the sun."
A young San Franciscan, the owner
of a large and valuable collection of

painter . was at outs. After four
months, the letter was returned to the

It is related that one evening last
winter, at a dinner given in honor of
Mrs. Pat Campbell, In New York, the
English actress remarked, loftily:
"They wanted me to play Tess of the
D'Urbervilles in England, but I
thought it a vulgar character, and I
can't be gross, you know." This from
the woman whose whole fame rested
on her Impersonations of women with
malodorous pasts or notorious presents
was astounding to all present, each one
of whom had said something in ex
tenuation of the sins of poor Tess and
in admiration of Hardy's masterpiece
as a dramatic character-drawing.. For
a moment there was an embarrassed
silence, and then Miss Warren, who is
to star in the play this season, spoke
up innocently: ,"It is dreadful to be so
sensitive. I expect, Mrs. Campbell,
you find it hard even to accept your
share of the gross receipts."

pears in the English' press. Two Lon

Dublin to Cork, accosted a shaggy,
farmer-looking native at a Queen's
County station wih the words: "Well.
Pat, what do you think of the King
of England now?" "King of England,
is it?" replied the Irishman, and there
stole over his face an inimitable ex
pression of drollery as he went on In
a stage whisper: "Sure, avlc, . ye'll
want a, .viceroy over there, I'm think
in'. Himself an' herself are not goin
back to yez at all!" An old dame in
Galway who had spoken with the
King, was questioned as to what she
thought of his majesty. She delivered
herself of a long and enthusiastic eulo
gy, to the effect, that "Edward the
First of Ireland" was "a grand man
entirely," closing with the remark that
she had "only wan thrifling fault to
find with him," and that was that
"they keep the poor man so long In
the Phaynix Park beyant that they

CORRECT BREATHING.
In Ordinary Life Few People Breathe
as They Should.
"Do you know how to breathe?"
asked a dyspeptic-looking man of his
companion, whose full, flqjrid face de
noted a jolly nature. "In fact, I should
ask how long It has been since you
drew your breath." The fat-faced man
moved nervously and cast a suspicious
glance at his friend. He was about to
reply when he was interrupted again.
"The truth is you haven't breathed in
weeks, perhaps months, and I can
prove it. Don't be alarmed; I do not
intend to hold an autopsy on you, and
the coroner will" not be called in to
furnish evidence of what I say.
Breathing is something that very few
people do. It Is not a universal habit.
Less han 5 per cent of people breathe
as they should. Even a larger per
cent of tomato plants or oak trees
breathe In the way that they should
than men. You may demonstrate this
fact to yourself. All that is necessary
is to carry out a few simple sugges
tions which I will make, and consider
well the indications which will be pre
sented after you have made the ex
periment. Breath is life. The deli
cate organs and still more - delicate
muscles which are Involved in breath
ing require action as much as do the
biceps or triceps. Lie on youirback for
thirty days and observe : how weak
the muscles of the legs and body be
come. They would be shrunken and
flabby and entirely too weak to carry
your weight. They would be impover
ished. Think not, then, that the mere
delicate and sensitive organs and
muscles of the inner man do not need
exercise. This is given them by
breathing. Now, take a man who has
not exercised his biceps or triceps for
several weeks and let him do so for
the space of three minutes. Then ob
serve how exhausted he feels.' It Is
because the muscles are not used to
such violent action. In the same way
let a man start a violent respiratory
motion and continue it for "three minr
utes. You will see the most perfect
picture of that tired feeling that you
could imagine. That will be proof
enough that the person who is thus
rendered tired is not accustomed to
breathlflg. The proof of the pudding
is m the chewing of the bag, as the
old saw says. Just try this plan once.
Breathe heavily and deep for two min
utes on rising in the morning and see
what a feeling of exhaustion will be
experienced. Then you will under
stand that very few people breathe as
they should, and that much of sickness
Is due to this fact. - Catch your breath,
my friend, and you will profit by It
You'll soon admit that there's a great
deal hi breathing," and the dyspeptic

HUNDREDS OF PIANOS RUINED.
Flood Caused Lose of $200,000 in
Musical Instruments.
More than 500 'pianos were totally
ruined in the recent floods In Kansas
City. The piano houses of the city are
busy tearing apart the water-soaked
instruments, saving some of the hard
ware, and sending the polished wood
to the kindling heaps.
"There is no salvage to a soaked pi
ano," said a prominent piano man.
"When they get w'et up to the keys
they are ruined."
The J. W. Jenkins Music Company
lost two carloads of new pianos that
aad not been unloaded from the cars.
Tbey were soaked and rendered useless
in the boxes in which tbey came from
the factory. Then there were approx
imately 350 rented pianos In the flood.
These are a total loss to the dealers
who had placed them in the various
homes.
A piano is made up of very delicate
parts. One fine-looking instrument
which had apparently fared well In the
immersion was all in pieces at the
workshop of the Jenkins Music Com
pany yesterday. It did not look to be
a ruin, good only for the scrap heap,
but that was its announced condition.
The polish on the outer surface was as
fine as ever. All the interior mech
anism was in apparently good shape
But there were faintly perceptible
warpings and a trace of rust on the
metal. The keys had become swollen
and warped until they were Immov
able. It Is the Intention of the companies
who have damaged pianos to make
some experiments with the better ones
in an effort to find out whether it be
possible to rejuvenate the instruments.
But every piano house in the city has
announced that it will never send out
for sale or hire any of the instruments
that have been flooded.
The collection of damaged pianos in
the Kansas City warehouses embraces
Instruments from the aristocratic $1,
500 symphony In mahogany to the
humble $150 kind in Imitation of some
thing which it is not And they are
all valueless. The salvage is not worth
more than the cost of taking the instru
ment to pieces.
"The hardware in them," said one of
the men at work wrecking ' pianos in
the warerooms of F. G. Smith, "is all
that can be saved. It is worth about
60 cents In each Instrument."
The value of pianos destroyed In the
Kansas City flood exceeds $200,000.

Habits of the Tailor Bird.
This wonderful bird lives in India.
It has a beak shaped very much like
a shoemaker's awl. The little bird,
which is yellow in color and only three
inches long, says the Philadelphia
Ledger, derives Its name from the way
in which It makes its nest It se
lects a large leaf, hanging from the
end of a twig; then it pierces a num
ber of holes along the edge of it with
its awl-like beak, and then gets the
long fibers of plants, which make ex
cellent thread, and carefully sews the
edges together like a purse or a bag,
using its bill for a needle to carry the
thread through. The ends of the
thread are knotted, to prevent them
from slipping through the leaf. The
stalk end of the leaf is bent and
crushed so as to form a hood over the
opening of the nest protecting it from
curt o xt .rflin
A
When the leaf Is net large enough
to make the nest, this bright little bird
gets another leaf, pierces it with holes
and pieces the two leaves together.
The Interior of the nest is lined with
cotton and silky grass, making a very
snug and , comfortable home for the
little birds. The bird and Its nest full
of eggs are so very light that they can
be suspended from the end of a slen
