Britain's Oldest Trees.
el m Oak and the
Although the Yha
d
Cowthorpe Oak are both about a
thousand years old, the oak cannot
boast of holding the premier position
for .lasting qualities among British
trees. This distinction belongs to the
yew.
It is said, for instance, that a yew at
Battle, in Sussex, must have been a
very old tree when William the Con-
queror landed. It is close on 30 feet,
in girth.
The yews at Norbury Park are said
to be 2,000 years old, so that they were
well grown when Julius Caesar landed
in 55 B.C.
Gilbert White, who wrote the "His-
tory of Selborne," believed that the
famous yew In Selborne churchyard
was at least as old as the church it-
self, which goes back to Saxon times,
and there are many yews along the
Pilgrims' Way between Winchester
and Canterbury which, could they but
speak, could describe the scenes which
are the subjects of Chaucer's poems.
GREAT OCEAN LINERS FOR ST. LAW.RENCE ROUTE
The steamer "Oarmania," which with its sister ship, the "Canute," is
being transferred from, the Halifax route to the St. Lawrence route. The
ships, which are 22,000 tons, are now being converted into oil burners, and
start their new service inthespring. They belong to the Cunard, line, which
originated with a Canadian -born pioneer in ocean transportation, Samuel
Cunard of Nova.Sootia, who' played a blg part in early development of the
steamship.
A Whistling Language.
What is probably the most remark-
able language" in the world exists in
the Canary Islands. The Guanches, or
aboriginal inhabitants of the islands
centuries before their discovery by
the Spaniards, are extinct as a separ-
ate race, but their descendants of
mixed blood still hold themselves dis-
tinct from the pure Spaniards, and
possess at least one peculiarity which
no European has ever been able to
fathom.
This is the whistling language. The
islands are so mountainous that whole
districts, are severed from, their neigh-
bors by precipices and steep valleys,
entailing perhaps a ten miles' detour
to cover three or four miles. In course
of time the Guanches evolved a perfect,
signalling code by whistles.- No in-
strument is used,the native having
some trick peculiar to himself by
which his whistle wil carry as far as
four miles. Over such a distance two
Guanches can carry on quite a long
conversation by ordinary mouth
whistling.
No European has ever discovered
the secret of the code, but it seems to
depend more upon the .exact pitch than
anything else. No "dot -and -dash"
business of long and short whistlesis
used, but only inflections of two or
three notes,
The native's whistle is extremely
piercing, and one scientist who, anxi-
ous.to delve into the secrets of an age-
old people, got a Quench° to whistle
straight Into his ear, found himself
dead for weeks afterwards.

Beard Beliefs.
There was a deep-rooted belief
among the ancient peoples of the East
that a man's glory was his beard. Com-
pulsory shaving and the close -cropping
of hair were signs of degradation. This
is borne out by Assyrian sculptures,
which always show kings with beards
and long hair, and slaves with close
cropped hair, and clean-shaven faces.
The .Egyptians, however, had dif-
erent ideas. They considered that hair
was a source of dirt, and shaved both
face and head. Their 'slaves and
ser-
vants were compelled to do the same.
The early Greeks and Romans
shaved off their beards because they
gave the enemy a good hold in hand-
to-hand fighting! ' It is recorded that
Alexander the Great ordered hie sol-
diers to shave for this reason.'
It was the custom among Romans
to shave off the beard at the age of
twenty-one, and present It as an offer-
ingto the household gods. A beard
was grown after that age only as a
sign of mourning.

burden and pains of indigestion are

says:. "I was attacked with indigestion
accompanied by severe armee in the
stomach. I was prescribed for by the
family doctor, but got very little bene-
fit. Then I tried some of the adver-
tised remedies but with no better re-
sult. Indeed niy condition was grow-
ing worse. 'Then I read of the case of
a man who praised Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills whose condition was similar to
my own, and I decided to try this
medicine. The result, I think, was
amazing, as the use of six boxes re-
stored me to my former good health.
I can therefore warmly comme.td the
use of this medicine for stomach trou-
bles."

For a minute, or two no one moved
or spoke. Then Jim got up and took
his father's hand. "Thank you, father,"
he said—"father," not "dad" this time.
"You have taught me a lessonthatI

When Colors Mean Cash.
We color the walls of our living
rooms to please our eyes,and pur-
chase garments of different hues to
suit our complexions or our, individual
tastes. Few of ue consider color from
anything but an artistic point of view,
Color, however, plays an important
part in trade and commerce, and quite
a' slight difference in the color of many
products of Nature or of art makes en
immense difference to the value of the
article in question.
The familiar example is the varying
colors Fouad in the same gem. Take
pearls, for instance. The most valu-
able is the. black. Then come the pink,
white, and lastly yellow.
The red diamond, being very rare, is
the most valuable. Next come blue
and green stones, and then white. Yel-
low diamonds, as in the case of yellow
pearls, can be bought comparatively
cheaply.
Turn to furs, The skin of a red fox
is as warm and soft as that of a black
fox, yet it isnot worth a hundredth
part of the price of the latter. Blue
and white fox skins of the best quality
are very expensive,'but the fur must
be natural. Although a dyedskin may
look as well, it has little value.
The market in the rarer woods ' le
ruled by color and' grain. Of two
pieces of mahogany, each equally
sound and good, one may bo worth
ten times as much as the other be-
cause of the richness of Its color; and
the same applies to walnut, rosewood,
and even to oak and yellow pine.

Motorist, How Soon Can
You Stop?
The suggestion 1s made thatmotor-
ists should teat for themselves their
ability to make a quick stop . in ease
of emergency. It is perdicted that
most of them will be surprised.
Running at 15 miles an hour, a oar
travels at 22 feet a second. At 20
miles, it is 20 feet four inches. At 25
miles it is 88 feet 7 inches.
A "perfect stop" on dry pavement,
from a 15 -mile epeed,'covers 25 to 80
feet. At 20 miles, 40 to 50 feet, at 25,
00 to 75 feet. On wet pavements, this
distance may be doubled.
The motorist owes it to himself to
assure himself continually that his
brakes are in proper condition.
Brides as Bargains.
The throwing of an old shoe after a
bridal couple 1s regarded by most
authorities as the survival of a very
ancient custom connected with the
transfer of property.
Among certain races women were re-
garded as a species of property, and
in some ancient civilizations, that of
the Jewel especially, the removal and
giving of the shoe or sandal confirmed
an exchange or safe—a custom assert-
ed to have been derived from the
Egyptians.
A superstition with regard to the
worn shoe was very widespread, and
existed even among the barbarous
races. Some have even tried to as-
cribe it to the time when the bride-
groom carried off the bride by force
and the bride's family threw things
after him as he decamped.
In old Saxon marriages the bride's
father handed the bridegroom the
bride's shoe, and he touched her with
it on the forehead in token of author-
ity.

coolly refusing to be rescued until he
