It must have a variety of food. It is
like the muscles in the arms or legs.

I was talking not long ugo to a learn
ed judge, a man of fine judicial mind
and literary attainment, but who ac
knowledged his very limited knowl
edge of nature and nature's laws. ':I
hardly know one tree from another,"
said he, "excepting, of course, the
chestnut, hickory nul and walnut.
Ves, of course, 1 know thc pim-and
the oak. Indeed I have never had
un3' occasion to know more, for I was
raised in town and books have absorb
ed me."
I was ruminating about this because
our little girl s mother is teaching her
to draw and to paint,' and I asked her
to draw me a chestnut tree, an oak
tree und a maple tree. She is work
ing on them now and has to gu out
and look at them and examine the
bark un thc trunk, and the shape of
the limbs and leaves. I wonder how
many boys and girls can draw a hicko
ry ?caf without looking at one. 1
should like to see their specimens.
Thousands of boys, especially country
boys, know all tho common trees of
their neighborhood, but it requires
close and careful observation to de
scribe them and point out the differ
ence. Now there are teri different
kinds nf oaks ir? this country, but
very few town raised people can name
half of them. Then there ure differ
ent kinds of hickories and piries and
ash and elm trees, besides the hack
berry, box elder, poplar, beach, locust
and cottonwood. Hugcne IJC Hardy
was a very learned and scientific
Frenchman, but thought that Ameri
can cotton grew on the cottonwood
trees and that wc gatheved it by using
ladders. It is said that a Mr. .Jack
son, of Atlanta, is trying to introduce
thc ladder kind new and has got the
trees up to fourteen feet high.
Thc study of tho trees and shrubs
of this Southern country is a delight
ful and instructive recreation for
young people, and I wish they would
pay more attention to it. Of course
this study requires some knowledge of
botany, but that is easily acquired.
This kind of knowb-dge is more useful
and more comforting than a college
smattering of calculus and cunio sec
tions aud rhetoric and logie. I do not
believe there are ten men in Barlow
County who would know ginseng if
they were to soo it. Not many more
know what is father graybeard or white
ash, tho medicinal shrub from which
old A. Q. Simmons first made the
original Simmons liver medicine in
Gwinnett County. 1 know about that,
for" when I was a young merchant I
sold the first ho ever made aud con
tinued to sell .it for him for several
years and be tr?1*1 mc what it was mude
of. I think, though, that the father
gravboard gave nut about the time the
old mau died.
I wish that our young people would
acquire babils of observing things

When should trees be cut down that
are wanted forwood? What kind of
wood is the strengest and will bear the
greatest burden V What, kind is the
most elastic ? What kind tho hardest
to split? What kind will lust, the
longest in the ground ? What kind
most suitable for pianos, chairs, fur
niture or wainscoting? What kind for
mauls or wedges or canes? Dr. Oli
ver Holmes must have studied all
about these when he wrote the "One

away in the air from thc sweet little

feathery that it would take atnousaud

Old Joe was a quiet old man but
somewhat too fond of the bottle.
When in his cups his ideas tended
toward theological matters, which he
always avoided in his sobor moments.
It was Saturday afternoon, and his
good wife wanted some wood for the
oven, as she had bread to bake.
"Joe. I do wish you would go and
split some wood. Here it is nearly 2
o'clock, and the firo isn't made."
Joe went out to execute his com
mission, and fearing his physical con
dition was weak, marched to thc
neighboring tavern to fortify himself
therein. He returned home oblivious
to all things save his pet theories.
Seating himself on thc chair, he said :
"lI say (hie) Jane, do you (hie) think
(hil-) the Loni (hie) means to burn us
all up in tire V
His venerable spouse, being exceed

repeated the question. Still an omi

"Wife, ?Io you think the Lord in

aroused housewife ; "no, you fool, not

HOW TO ?ET IN THE NAVY
Not as Officer, but as Apprentice, Sea
man or Mechanic.
WASHINGTON, October 1. - Naval
recruiting stations arc to bc estab
lished ut Charle-don, Savannah and
several other eities along thc South
Atlantic coast. Lieut. Commander
Hawley, of the navy, who hus charge
* !" 11 i ? - recruiting branch of the ser
vice, h t- made the necessary n.ni>
mendal iou. in hi. animal report to the
Secretary ol' the Navy, .md the latter
?viii incorporate said recomiuendar
uons ic bi.- animal report t ? the Pres
ide.,: ::. I t'.jngres .
The establishment of recruiting
stations in these Southern cities may
or may ii"t be i II ibo need by the pros
pect of trouble with Spain, but at the
navy department, where I made care
ful inquiry, it is said that the desire
is to secure additions to the service
from Southern and Western Str
where native born American
boys are more readily obtained.
Lieut. Commander Hawley has just
returned from a trip to the West and
Northwest and he was greatly en
couraged at his success in securing
enlistments for the navy.
Thc South has never had any en
couragement in this line before and
those men and.boys from that section
of tho country who have found their
way into the service, have had to
seek enlistment at some of the North
ern recruiting stations. The navy is
in need of more men to properly man
her great ships of war. now construc
ted and in course of construction.
Thc force is inadequate to a marked
degree, jind it often happens that one
big ship has to be put out of commis
sion so that her crew may be divided
and transferred to two smaller ships
needed for immediate service. It is
estimated that at least four thousand
additional men will be required to fur
nish all the ships ready for sea with
good working crews, sufficient to han
dle them in activa service.
American sailors for American war
ships seems to be the intention of
those in charge of.thc naval branch of
the "government. That policy does
not originate with thc present admin
istration, as it seems to have its in
ception about the time the country
was thrilled with tho enthusiasm at
tending thc famous cruise of thc noble
"white squadron," around the world,
commanded by Admiral Walker.
Prior to thc advent of the "white
squadron" more than 50 per cent of
the sailors on board of American war
ships were foreigners; many of them
could not speak our language. The
patriotism aroused by thc "white
squadron" and the discussion of naval
topics in the great newspapers of the
United States, soon made itself ap
p?tent at thc various naval recruiting
stations in Boston, New York, League
Island, Pennsylvania, and Mare Is
land, California. American men aod
boys visited the ships of the white
squadron whenever opportunity of
fered aud soon learned that the navy
is not thc resort for outlaws and hard
cases, as was once thought to be the
case. These magnificent floating en
gines of war are equipped with all the
modern appliances for convenience and
health-giving comforts, and they offer
a very desirable heme for men and
boys who are ambitious to lead a sea
faring life. The result has been that
thc percentage of alien sailors on
American war ships has been reduced,
and to-day about 60 per cent, of the
enlisted meu in the navy are Ameri
can born citizens. It is tho intention
of the Secretary of the Navy to still
further increase tho attractions in the
service for native born Americans.
Tho following official circulars, rela
tive to enlistments, will furnish all
the desiruble information to those who
contemplate entering the navy:

JOHN D. LONO, Secretary.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt is
ceply interested in this subject, and
'hen he goes South to wituess the
j ivemcnts of thc torpedo flotilla he
'ill look into the questiou of locating
bc desired recruiting stations, .lt
mst be remembered that these sta
ions cannot bc established aud main
lined unless Congress authorizes the
eeessary appropriations; therefore thc
iorth Carolina, South Carolina, Geor
ia and Florida Congressmen might
nd it to the advantage of their con
tinents to look into the subject with
omo care.
If the South proves herself to be a
ruitful field for naval recruiting why
hould she not have a big recruiting
eudezvous and a receiving ship, such
s they have at New York, Boston, or
lare Island, California. The West
as sent some very desirable men aud
oys into the service during recent
ears. The South has also some very
redi table representatives aniur,.g tho
nlisted men. de instance I recall
i that of Lee Boland; a Georgia lad,
ho is now boatswain on board of the
[arion, having worked his way up to
iie rank of a warrant officer from an
pprentice on board one of the train
jg ships. He is one of the brightest
oung warrant officers in the service,
ad he has a life position, and it is
ossible for him to reach a salary limit
P SI ,800'per annam, with allowance?,
it the department it is said that pref
rencc it always given to the boys of
ie training ship classes in promotion
j the rank of petty officers. Much
tore could be written on this subjcot,
ut I have already shown that there is
o reason why American sailors should
ot man American war ships.
