A wealthy and cul- tured family of good ancestry, but who did not happen to figure as soeial leaders in a. certain city, received invitations for a wedding among people whom they knew very well, but whose social aspira- tions were rather more pronounced than their own. The gift selected for the bride was a beautiful and expensive clock. It was bought at ono of the best shops, and the cards of the givers were left to be sent with the eloelz at a certain date, Tirno passed, the wedding cane off, but no acknowledgment reached the people who sent the clock.

A very important distinction between a crop of trees and a crop of grain or other farm produce lies in the length of time it takes to produce each of them. A farmer, for instance, sows the grain in the spring of the year. It sprouts, goes through the different stages in the blade and .the .head. and ripens, all in a few months, and in the late summer is harvested. The raising of a timber crop is a different matter entirely. The tree rarely, if ever, is fit to cut (for saw - timber, at least) before it is forty or fifty years old.
