The .statue of Liberty, in New York
harbor, is electrically Illuminated?
tlwt Is, so flooded wltli light as to be
' rendered brightly visible at night.
Originally, however, the Idea was
to make It serve as a beacon, and for
this purpose the "flame" of the lady's
torch was cut at the sides, the opentogs
fitted with glass, and nine duplex
arc lumps placed inside.
mhos was obtained a light which,
uphold at a height of 3Qf> feet above
lie water, was visible 24 miles out

of theputslde llghtshln. Its inn in.

But tlie lighthouse hoard declared
that it had little or no usefulness as
an aid to navigation, Its value being
purely sentimental,'"'and hv 1002- the

NUT-BEARING NATIVE TREES J
Of Them All the Hickory Is Easily '
the Best Known, and Grows (
Nowhere Else.
Of the nut-bearing American trees, 1
hickories nre perhaps the best known,
being strictly North American trees,
none now growing In any other part
of the world. Of the 14 known spe- 1
cles one Is Mexican, the other 13 grow- 1
Ing east of the Itocky mountains. In- 1
dlann boasts of six species, qf which I
the shnghark, or shellbark, is the most *
noted, because of Its nuts and peculiar
bark. 0 1
The wood of most of these species I
is tough, strong and flexible, bat because
of Its value for implements and
fuel tho finest trees of our forests
have been sacrificed, the crop of wild
nuts decreasing as a consequence.
The pecan Is the largest of our
hickories, being a uatlve of the southern
and southwestern counties of Indiana
and growing to perfection in
the rich, moist soils of river bottoms.
The black walnut grows west from
western Massachusetts to Minnesota.
Its branches are stout and spreading,
forming a round-topped tree when
grown in the open.
No Harmony.
Patience?Do you huve harmony in
your church choir?
Patrice?I>o we? Listen. Last Sunday
the soprano wore u pink hat and
a green waist, the alto appeared In
a green waist and a yellow hat, and
the tenor wore a green necktie and a
very red nose!
