In Idaho there exists a species of the acacia tree which is entitled to be classed as one of the wonders of plant life. This tree, Harper's Week- ly states, attains a height of about eight feet. When full grown it closes iits leaves together in coils each day at sunset and curls its twigs to the shape of pigtails. When the tree has thus settled itself for its night's sleep it is said that if touched it will fiut- ter as if agitated or impatient at the disturbance. The oftener, it is averred, the foliage is molested, the more. vio- lent will become the shaking of the branches. Finally, it is further al- leged, if the shaking be continued, the tree will at length emit a nauseating odor quite sufficlent to induce a headache in the case of the person disturbing the tree. In Idaho it is called the “angry tree” and it is said that it was discov- ered by men who, on making camp for the night, placed one end of a can- vas covering over one of the sensitive branches, using it for a support. Im- mediately the tree began to jerk its branches sharply. The motion contin- ued, with increasing ‘“nervousness,” until at last came a sickening odor that drove the tired campers to a more friendly location. Curiosity prompted an investigation. { One of the “angry trees” was dug up iand thrown to one side. upon being removed from the ground it is said that the tree opened fits leaves, its twigs lost thelr pigtails and for something over an hour, and. a half- the outraged branches showed their indignation by a series of quak- ings, which grew weaker and weaker and ceased when the foliage had be- come limp and withered. i Mine Own. | “How long would you be willing to wait for me?” she asked, in tones so | low he could scarcely catch the words.

Old Forglen, the Scotch judge, died in 1727. Dr. Clerk, who attended his lordship to the last, calling on his patient the day he died, was admitted by the judge’s cld servant and clerk, David Reed. “How does my lord do?” inquired the doctor. “I houp he’s ‘weel!” responded the old man, whose voice and manner at once explained his meaning. With tears streaming down his face, he conducted Dr. Clerk into a room where there two dozen bottles of wine underneath the table. Other gentlemen presently arrived, and having partaken of a glass or two of wine, while they listened to Da- vid’s account of his master's last; hours, they all rose to depart. “No, 1o, gentlemen; not so,” said the old factotum, “it was the express of the deceased that I should fill ye a’ fou, end I maun fulflll the will o’ the dead.” Dr. Clerk used to add, when relating the story, “and, indeed, he did fulfill the will of the dead, for before the end o’t there was na ane; of us able to bite his ain thoomb!” That’s the shortest and best way to describe our clothing. tells the whole s the lowness - of make our clothes the high quality price. :: Our right, heimer PRIGE SELLS; QUALITY TELLS, hencej our clothes sell readily—the quality is customer always a cus- tomer.” Nowhere can you get bet- ter gclothes than Kuppen- else can you find them sold for less than at this store.
