TIIE IttECII TREE.
There stood in the forest an old beech tree. Her top was shattered by lightning, her sides were hollow, and pieces of fungus grew her bark. .She was the oldest of a numerous family, but she had seen her children, as BOOH ITS they had grown up. fall under the woodman's ax, and only one daughter remained to her. This daughter was a young beech tree, with smooth bark and heaven aspiring crest and only 80 years old- That, is tin* best year for a forest tr(
The. old troo still thrust out her twigs and leaves the spring, but she felt that her life \v:is drawing to a close, for it co.-t lu great suffering to hold herself upright. And li'van^o. sho knew that she must die she Mr. 1I love increase for her beautiful daughter.
Spring was approaching. The branches were still covered with the glittering frost, but the roots began to uncurl, and the warm wind melted the snow. Tho rivers and brooks were swelling with melted ice. In the meadows the silvery cut kins burst from their wrappings, and the snowdrops peeped timidly up through the white carpet of the forest- ground.
The old tree spoke to lie young: "Tonight comes the violent thaw wind. It will throw me down upon my bed of leaves that I have scattered in thocourw of time, and I shall go back into the bosom of the mother from whom came. Yet before I go home 1 will Ix qneath to yon a gift that the gentle lord of the forest bestowed uj»n me when long ago he stopped to rest under my branches. You shall understand men's words and deeds and share alike in their jovs and sorrows. That is tho greatest happiness that- can fall to our lot, but be prepared to behold more sorrow than joy.'' So spoko the old tree and blessed her daughter.
In tho night the thaw wind came from the west. It buried ships in the waves of the sea it. rolled great masses of snow from tho mountains that destroyed the homes of men in their progress it roared through the forest, and everything that was old and weak perished. Bur tho strong trees resisted ii. It struck the old leooh tree to the earth and shook her strong daughter as she wisely bent her head before tho blast, and tlu? great wind swept on.

Three days the daughter wept sparkling dew fir her mother then the sun came out and dried her tears. Then began everywnere such stir and commotion that- the beech tree had no time to grieve. Her buds swelled and burst and one morning a hundred thousand trembling, tender green leaves sprang into the sunshine. That was joy! Golden yellow primroses climbed from the ground. They pushed their silken leave.* out into the broad sunlight. Red :ind blue blossoms grew up around the primroses. and the sweet woodruff uncurled its delicate whirled loaves. That was life.

And in the midst of all this bloom and fragnuieo tho yi mng beech treo stood like a queen. A fineh built her nest in ner branches and a redheaded wood pecker paid her a visit. Once cuckoo came and once a distinguished squirn. with his bushy tail over his head ui up and down to see if he might not find au acorn. But men she had not yet set this year, and they would have been the most v.vlci.me guests of all, since she posses.M-d the pov.-i to understand the:r words and deeds. After all. onemornir.il came a slender young girl wuh her long brown braids, who walked through tho woods :ra:ght to tho tree. However, her visit did not seem to be for the. beech alone*. Sho ulanced at the decaying trees 011 the ground and said, "lb-re is the spot." Thou she sat down her basket tilled with May tlowers and leaned back against, the beech tree without a glance at its green loveliness.
The tree held her breath to hearwlv.it I the maiden v.mild say, but. the pretty one si lea Presently from the opposite side appeared a stront! young man. He wore a little round hat with a curling fea'oer like a huntsman. Ho crept- up eaunousiy—so cautiously that hardly a leaf rustled under his feet. Hut softlv as he slepp-'d tho quick ear of the maiden perceived his coming. She turned her head toward him. and the tree thought. "Now sho will fly. But the girl did not tly. Instead she sprang toward the youth and threw both arms around his brown nock. "My Hans!" "My Eva they cried together. Then they kissed each other passionately, calied each other pet names, embraced again, and the beech treo found it all very tedious.

Later they sat under the tree and spoko of their love. It was an old story they told, but it was all new to the beech tree, and she listened like a child to a fairy tale. It was a wonderful surprise to her. The youth aroso from the ground, drew out- his knife and began to carve in tho bark of the tree. This caused the beech great pain, but sho hold tus still as a walL "What is that to be?" asked the maiden. "A heart with yournamoand mine, answered Hans as he continued to carve.
When tho work was finished, they both looked at
it,
well pleased, and tho
tree was as happy as if a king had hung a golden chain upon her. "Truly, men are splendid people," thought she.
Nowthe hunter began to sing. The tree had listened many times to the
song of the finch and thrush, but she heard now for tho first time something very different from bird songs. "List'-n, Hans," said the girl when the hunvr paused in his song. "Your seng -.mnds me of something. I know —jK'ojile -ay—that in the autumn you go secretly into the woods for game. Let the poaching go. The forester is your enemy. You know why, and if ho should meet you poaching in the woods, then—heavens! my Hans! if you should be brought to me with a bullet through your breast."
The young man bent over the girl, who leaned caressingly on his shoulder and kissed her lips. "People talk toomnch. Don't believe everything they say, sweetheart." And putting his arm around her they went singing through the fore «t
When the couple dis ipp wd among the trees, a man itvhunter dress crept from the bushes. He carried his gun on his back and a knife in his belt. His face was white and distorted. Ho went up to the beech tree and beheld the heart, that Hans had carved. He laughed wildly and drew out his knife to destroy tho writing, then, changing his mind,
I10
thrust the blade again in its sheath. Shaking his fist threateningly in tho direction where the couple had disappeared, he muttered, grinding his teeth, "If I mee.t you, you poacher, only once on forbidden ground, you will have heard the. cuckoo sing for the last time. With these words he went into the woods.
And the tree shook her head sadly.vi The beech tree got. many a sight of tho faces of 1 ho children of men in the course of the summer—the poor women gathering leaves or dry baric, tho berry pickers, foresters and pilgrims. But the most cherished amid the guests who gathered under her leafy roof were the youth and brown haired maid. They made weekly visits to her. Kpoko of their love, embr -ed each other, and day by day the beech tree, came to lovo them more.
One morning before sunrise, when the mountains were just casting off their gray mist caps, Hairs came alone. He carried a gun
011
his shoulder and step
ped as lightly through the underbrush as if he would take his sweetheart by surprise This time his coming had nothing with lovely Eva—hut the stag comes this way to drink!
At the foot of the tree tho hunter paused mul st»d as motionless as the beech herself. The cool morning wind blew, and the mist disappeared in heavy clouds. The gay birds fluttered and sang about the stream. The underbrush rustled. Hans raised his gun. A shot rang out on the cl'-ar air. Hans dropped his gun, sprang convulsively into the air ind fell to the ground. A man strode hastily from the thicket with a smoking gun in his left hand. The beech tree knew him well. Tho huntsman bent over the murdered man. "It is all over with him," he said, and taking his gtm ho vanished into the bushes.
The bright sun rose and shone upon a still form with set white face. Sorrowfully tho tr'-e bent over and wept bitter tears, and the little robins flew up and covered the dead face and staring eyes with leaves and twigs. In the afternoon some woodcutters came that way and found the body. "Hohas been shot while poaching," they said, and taking him gently up they bore him to the distant valley. An edd man lingered by the tree. He drew his knife and carved across over the heart that Hans had made. Then he took off bis hat and breathed a prayer. The leaves of'the green crest rustled, for the tree prayed, too. in her own way.
For many summers 11 the anniversary of the deatji of the murdered man, the maiden carie to the seat, knelt down and wept and prayed, and every time she was paler, more fragile. One day sho did nor come, and the tree murmured, "She is dead and so it was.
Years passed. The beech had become
•x
mighty tree. Her bark was covered with brown moss. Tho wild viie clustered about her trunk, and lie ,rt and cross were both nearly covered. A man ::ame one davand made a third nark on the bark, and the tree knew her time had come. She re the sign of her destruction—she nut:- «,n fall.

A gloomy, glowering man in hunter's dress, with long gray hair and beard, dim-ted their movements. The bee el, knew him ri^ht well, and he appeared to recognize the trie. He came close to her anil tearing away hot no.~ and vine iio saw that heart and cross were sal't "Here it was.' lie muttered, and horror shook his very frame. "Back. Herr Forester!

The warned man stepped back, but it was too late. With a dealeiiingcra.-h tlv beech fell to the ground and buried the forester under her corpse, When they picked him up, lit? was dead. '.Lhe beech had crushed his head. Anil the men stood in a ci'vlo roundabout, and prayed for his soul.—From the (lemian.

TUOIUAK Laugher and ills Carious Experiences, Physical and Otherwise.
Thomas Laugher, who is said to have died at the age of 110, has an amusing record that, connects him with Holborn. Ho was a well educated in, for he had studied at ('hristchurch, Oxford, for 12 years. In early life he had been a wine merchant in Tower street and failed, owing to the failure of a very large house in the same trade, Neele. Fordyee & Co. It so affected Laugher tlr.it he became blind and speechless, and the skin 1 peeled oil from the whole of his body Though a wine merchant, he never drank any fermented liquor for the first 50 years of his life. The old man's memory was prodigious. He well lemembered, in 1705, seeing Queen Anne going to the house of peers, seated
great
abundance in many parts of south Euroie, Asia and Africa. The tree which most generously produces it is a sort ot ash. The juice exudes from the stem during tho summer months, a.- a couserpience of tho punctures of an insect that infests the tree, but the better kinds of manna, known as "llake manna, aro obtained from incisions made in tho bark. The. poorer qualities come from the bark near the roots of the tree. The manna of commerce is obtained chiefly from Sicily iunl Calabria. A variety is collected by the Arabian Bedouins from a species of taniarix, which is used 011 bread like honey. The word is believed to be derived from the Syriae mano, a gift, though there is little evidonco that the medical Bubstance now known by that namo has anything in 30mmon with tho manna mentioned in the travels of tho Israelites.

HOW TO REMEMBER.
Advice to Those Wishing to Commit Songs or Mush to Memory. "1 wish you would teach me how to commit to memory the songs I want to sing," said an amateur musician ton. friend. "1 have never been able to commit my music to memory—at least have never done so—and 1 think it. would be of use to me il 1 Could." "Tho process is not a difficult one. was the reply. "1 have always found it easy to remember songs and poems by a certain rule or method that 1 adopted a long time ago. Take any popular song, 'The Last Rose of Summer.' for example. It is a good plan to read it over and get the si nrinif nt of the verse, which comprehends the idea of loneliness, the fading away of beautiful tilings and the lack of sympathy in sadness. Tho rose is blooming aione. Its companions are faded and gone. No flower or kindred is nigh to share its pleasures or answer to its sighs. This is the groundwork— the skeleton, so to speak—of the verse.
Impress this lirmly on the mind and familiarize the thought with the sentiment. Imagine the garden with the. one rose and failed leaves all around. Once this is lixeil in the memory it is comparatively easy to fill in the remaindcof the words. This is one of the simplest uid surest way of committing the words of a song to memory. "With most people memorizing the air of the song is much easier, and this is done by humming again and again, referring to 1 lie music whenever there is any question. It is important to learn au air correctly at tirst. for when a mistake is made at the outset one is almost certain toldunderat the same place ever •afterward." New York Ledger
