Qaerat Mary has always set her face against indiscriminate charity. She strongly disapproves of it, and dis- cern-item/sees it as much as she is able. Since the outbreak of war an. enormous number of bogus charitable Appeals have been sent out, and peo- ple responsible for them have made special efforts to secure gifts from the lora- King and Queen, for the simple reason that a subscription from their Ma- ljesttee is regarded by the general i)ublic as an indication that the cause Is a good and deserving one. The Queen knows this, and is therefore specially careful not to give anything to an undeserving cause lest she en- • eouragea her subjects to waste their money.

THE ANTIPODES Great Forests of Australia Filled With Sunshine and Flowers. One readily understands why the Australian lovos his trees, says the National Geographic Magazine. The groves of giant eucalyptus form pic- tures never forgotten, and the scent of the wattle brings a homesick feel- ing like the smell of saga to the west- erner. The flora is not only beautiful, it is unique, and has no counterpart in oth- er lands. Of the 10,000 species of plants, mostfof them are purely Aus- tralian, and are unknown even in New Zealand. The general impression one gets of Australian forests is their total unlikeness to anything seen elae- where. The great forests of timber trees are not damp and shadded and all of one species, but are well lighted and filled with other forests of shorter trees. In places the woods consist of large widely spaced trees surround- ed only by bunch grass, and even in areas where water is not to bo found on the surface for hundreds of square miles true forests of low trees are present. Forms which may be recognized as tulip, lily, honeysuckle and fern take on a 'surprising aspect. They are not garden flowers, but trees, and the landseape of which they form a part reminds one 'of the hypothetical re- presentations in books of science of a landscape of Mesozoic time, a period antedating our own by millions of years. The trees are Indeed these of a by- gone age. In America and Europe shadowy forms of fossil leaves of strange plant species are gathered from the rock, and studied with in- terest; in Australia many of these ancient trees are living, The im- pression that one is looking at 11 land- scape which has forever disappeared from other parts of the world is se vivid that the elms and maples and oaks in some of the city streets strike a jarring note.

The laundry was a washtub out under a tree. "NOw, boys," said Miss Berry, "we aro going to wash clothes. I will show you how. Then each boy is to wash his own garments." There was silence, an electric si- lence, while the naeuntairiliers con- sidered: Then their spokesman, a tall, strapping young feliow, said, "No, ma'am! I ain't never seen no man do no washira, and what's more, I ain't goin' to do it." Calmly Miss Berry played her last card. "If you will not do the wash- ing," she said, "you may watch me while I do it for you." Into the tub wont her round, white arms. It was her first washing, like- wise. Up. and down "sloshed" the clothes over the washboard; up and. down bent the back of the gentle washerwoman. Tho boys stood shee15- ishly regarding her. Exhausted, she finally straightened hor aching back and leaned in weariness against the tub. The chivalry of the mountaineer asserted itself at last. "I ain't never seen it done," deelar- ed the boy who had spoken before, "but I'm a-goin' to wash them clothes." And dashing in, he led his compan- ions in a charge to victory.
