BAX FIIANC18CO, Feb.. 11.-30-quolu
national park,, which a bill
pending In congress proposed lo be
known hereafter as Itooncvelt nation
al park In honor of, and as a memor
ial to tho late Colonel Theodore
Itooscvelt, chiefly Is famed for the
fact that within Its area Is Included
tho oldest of IlvlnB things known to
man. These are tho giant sequoia,
or rodwood trees which grow In great
groves scattered thru the park's area
of 101, 087 acre, situated In Tulare
county, Cullforniu.
As In tho case of other national
parks of the United States, tho Roos
evelt national park was created for
the people as a recreation ground,
with tho added object of preserving
the great trees from the hands of
vandals. Adjoining tt is the General
(Irani national narta containing 2'i3G
acres, one-half of which Is In Tulare
county and the other half in Fresno
county.
Within the two parks thoro are
1,1 fill, lf)i) redwood trees of which
12,000 are more than ten feet In di
ameter. Tho comparative measure
ments hero given Include the larger
and bnter known trees which are
pointed out to visitors:
(ienerul Sherman tree, diameter,
40. ii feot; height, 279.9 feet, (ien
erul Clrant tree, diameter, 35 feet:
he'ght 2IS4 feet. Abraham Lincoln
tree, diameter, ?.l feet; height, 270
I feet. California tree, diameter .'10
'foot: height, 2C0 feet. Cleorge Wash
. Inpton tree, diameter 29 feet; height,
2.15 feet. William McKlnloy tree,
diameter, 28 feet; height, 2I.
Pome Idea of the age of these
trees may be conceived when it Is
said that scientists txpress the opin
ion that many of them were growing
snnllngs at the time the Tower of
I Hu'iel was in process of construction,
according to biblical history. Thou
sands of them had attained a lusty
growth before the birth of Christ in
Uethlchem. .
On the stump of one of the many
fallen giants, John .Muir, the natural
ist, counted more than four thousand
rings, a ring for every year of Its
j life. It's trunk, exclusive of the
bark, was 35.2 feet In diameter. As
the bark of the largest Sequoias Is
i two feet or more in thickness, this
I giant must have measured forty feet

"Motessca and bread!" All

Sergeant E. A. Boyd, a lirltlsh air
man, who wai captured was aontenc

lie has now returned to Kngliind.
With a lieitonant, Boyl was pa
trolling off the Belgian coast In a
seaplane. Thoy were shot down by
enemy destroyers and while Boyd
was in tho water lie wrote this mes
sage: "Shot down at 8:42 p. m. Be
lng picked up by Huns." The pigeon
to which ho entrusted tho message
was unable to fly and fell Into the
hands of the Germans. The two air
men wcro taken lo Brygos whore they
were sent for by Admiral ron Schroe
dor. "He was frightfully angry over my
messago," Boyd relates, "and bogan
to swear In broken Fngllsh. The
only thing we understood clearly was
that on tho following day one of us
was to be shot. I had told him that
I had written the message.
"Later I was courtmartlaled and
the court held that by calling the
Gormans 'Huns' I had Insulted the
officers and men of the German de-
Istroyers, and I was sentenced to
twelve months' imprisonment.
"For the first six months 1 was ab

Dr. I'lcrce, of Uiifrulo, N. V., ahouUI

America's great benefactors Is writ
ten, ille studied and conquered hu
man dlseasos to a deitree that few
realize. Whenever he found a rem
edy that overcame dlHense, ho at one
announced It In tho newspapers and
told where.lt could bo bought at
small price. He did not follow ths
usual custom ot keeping the Ingredi
ents secret, so that the rich only
could afford to buy the medicine, but
openly printed tho name of onoh root
and herb he uBel. And bo today tho
names of Dr. Plorce and his med
icines are widely known, and they
stand for better health and belter cit
izenship. One of this (treat physician' most
successful remedies Is known as Doc
tor iIMerco's Pleasant Pellets. These
aro little, sugar-coated pills, com
posed of Mayapple, leaves of aloe,
root of jalap things that uN'ature
grows la tho ground. These. Pellets
are safe because they move the bow-,
els gently, leaving no bad after-effects,
as so many pills do. Very
often thoy make a person who laltos
them feel like a new man or woman,
for they cleanse the Intestines ot
hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one Is costive. :
If you are constipated by all moans
go to your druggist and get some ot
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Thoy
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well
