Tree Always Extreme ' in Matter of Thirst Trees are confirmed drinkers. Me solids for them. They have no temp. rate habits. " They drink continuous1y or not at all. Thaus they live and Erow as extremists angd are eithgr destroyed or die of old age unreformed, says the New York state college of forestry. In fact, the older they are the harder they drink and the greater their thirst. But no tree was ever found the worse for drinking. When they sleep in winter they go to the other extreme and are teetolars, but with the first sunshine and thaw of spring they resume their bibulous habits, : i
The liquid food of the tree is brewed in the ground. Water is the important inzredient. Billions of bacteria work to make soluble many substances so they may be dissolved by water and taken into the circulatory system of the tree. The tiny roots of the tree drink this life fluid, which is lifted hundreds of feet as if by a miracle, defying the laws of gravity without any moving machinery. This fluid is distributed to the branches, thence to the lesves, the stomach of the tree, where another miracle is performed whgn the liquid is digested and made ready to be formed into wood.
The tree grows year by year, like a person, in height and girth. If the tree falls in the forest billions of bacteria will get hold of it, and with the help of air and sun and moisture its substance will eventually be transformed into the liquid food for other trees. - ¥
Making It Plain to . the Youthful Mind Like all people whose work brings them into close relation with the human side of things, Sir Herbert Barker, the famous manipulative surgeon, has a great liking for children, and many of his best stories are about them. Here is a good one. “Daddy, is today tomorrow?’ asked little Willie, ' ' “No, my son, of course today isn’t tomorrow,” answered his father. “But you said it was,” objected Willie. . “When did I ever say that today was tomorrow ?” “Yesterday,” answered Willie. “Well, it was. Today was tomorrow yesterday, but today is today, just as yesterday was today yesterday, but is vesterday today. And tomorrow will be today tomorrow, which makes today yesterday and tomorrow all at once. Now run along and play.”
St. Bernard Mixed Breed
If tradition may be accepted as authentic, the St. Bernard dog is a produet of the Alpine section of Switzerland, There, about 600 years ago, the monks-of the Hospice of St. Bernard are said to have created the original type from the cross of a mastiff dog off%he Pyrenees with a Danish bulldog bitch. Later it became necessary to outeross with the Newfoundland and the Pyreneean sheep dog in order to refill the hospice kennels, which had been practically destroyed through the ravages of distemper and accident. Credit is likewise given the English mastift and the bloodhound, used in bringing the St. Bernard to its present stage of development. The outcome of this heterogeneous mixing of the blood of various breeds has been the production of a very extraordinary dog, an animal in which size, strength, bravery, loyalty and devotion are traditional characteristics.
More Than Fur Deep
Mary Katherine had a little alley cat on which she lavished all her young affections, and when it was lost she refused to be comforted. Grandma bought her a beautiful Angora kitten, but Mary Katherine was still loyal to the loved and lost. “See, dear,” grandma said one day, stroking the thick yellow fur, *‘isn’t this one much prettier than the other little kitty?” Mary Katherine gulped and her brown eyes filled. “But, grandma,” she quavered, “it’s the inside of a cat that counts!”— Kansas City Star.
Mightier Than the Purse
How a California newspaper man’s pen became as mighty as a wellfilled purse is told by V. C. of Hayward, Calif. Seouring the town for stories, the reporter came upon a poverty-stricken little family = occupying two rooms, with no beds and very little of anything else. The children slept huddied on the floor. Into his column next day went a faithful and graphic description. The following day he spent the later hours declining furniture, bedding, -clothing and food for the family, for the proffered supply soon exceeded the immediate needs. '
Watch Your Weight
The best index of good health, says the Kansas City Times, is the weight, Mothers know this and weigh their babies regularly in order to be sure that they are well. People who are ill usually lose weight. But it is not healthful to be overweight. Fat people are lese resistant to disease. Tq be too fat results in strain upon the heart. Watch your weight; keep it near the average for your age and height and you will have good health,

APPEARANCE IS BIG FACTOR — -~ ’ Public Demanding Stylish Bodles of Safe and Durable Comn. . struetion ‘Fith the buying public demanding ,m:Landr‘more every year and autg designers bending their best efforts to give them what they want, the battle for supremacy has resulted in rthe development of a car that infcludes style beauty durability and safety. , - . The cars of today are as much different from the old timers with their big high backs, as are the short skirts of feminine fagshions from the oldfashione-d hoop skirts and bustles of our great-grandmothers’ time. Time and experience have proven that the car that doesn’t keep up with the trends in fashion is doomed. Thg public today demangis appearance ag well as .performance. -It demands both and plenty of them. . In the design of Oakland and Pontiac cars, Fisher craftsmanship hag been employed to bring ahout beautiful appearance plus performance. Iy the design of the chassis, itself, thg factor of safety was as rigidly adhered to as in the designing of an airplane. And the ‘body has been developed to fit in with this to bring about a combination of safety style and sturdiness.
As the touring season swings into its stride, this is particularly noted in both the Oakland and Pontiac cars. Long, low and road-hugging they embody comfort and safety. With a
wheel-base of 17 inches on the Oakland and 110 inches on the Pontiac, they offer riding qualities that make a rough country road as ecasy to negotiate as a cement highway. _ Safety, too, has been incorporated in the Fisher body, with its combination wood and metal construction, which by test, has been proven taq be capable of withstanding the most severe treatment, ;
The combination of the two has brought about.a car in which vibration is at a minimum, the wood acts ing as a muffler to the natural regiliency of the metal. At the samaq time, the strength of the body. is much increased. : ‘ Particular care used in the seating arrangement stands out now as an added attraction to tourists. Tha deep cushions malke touring a pleasure. The care that the designers ex-. ercised in the placing of the seats show up now as tourists report reeling off their 300 miles or more a day without the least bit of fatigue. ~ In the arrangement of the windows particular care was given to increase the range of vision, so that passengers in the rear seats may see ail around without having to bend forward to catech a bit of landscape as it flashes by. o a
All this is merely part of the rigid attention to detail that is insisted upon in the design and construction of Fisher bodies. .
