We all knew i^n a general way that Lake Superior is the largest and Lake Ontario the smallest ef the Great Lakes, but the relative facts are scarcely known to the average person. While Lake Michigan. Michigan. ranks second in size, being forty-five miles shorter than Lake Superior, it is twice as deep at its greatest depth, the figures being 900 feet for Lake Superior and 1,800 feet for Lake Michigan, so that in cubical contents the latter fat out- reaches Superior. Lake Huron's greatest depth also is a hundred feet more than that of Lake Superior, Superior, so that the greatest is not' superior superior to everything after all. Lake Erie and Lake Ontario are comparatively shallow, with maximum maximum depth of 204 feet and 412 feet, and yet we should not like to fall overboard in either of them. In width--maximum figures--Lake Superior Superior comes first with 160 mile®, Huron second with 105, Michigan third with 84, Erie fourth with 60, and Ontario last with only 52 miles of greatest breadth. In ' comparison with its area, Ontario Ontario leads with & drainage of 29,- 769 square miles for its area of 6,700, the others being Erie, drainage drainage 39,860, area 23,000 square miles ; Michigan, drainage '70,000, area 22,400 square miles; and Superior, Superior, drainage 85,000, area 32,000 square miles. Drop in elevation is very gradual, ' Lake Superior being 600 feet above sea-level, Michigan 578 feet, Huron 574 feet, Erie 564 feet, and then comes a big drop to 234 feet for Lake Ontario.

Of all the trees that Billy knew, the very tallest was the great elm in the meadow-lot near the river. Be heard that the spire of the new church at' the village was more than a hundred feet tall, and he felt sure that his tree was taller than that. ■ • » One day Billy and his cousin Robert Robert were playing in the meadow. They sat down to rest for a minute minute in the shade of the great elm. "I wish that I could find out how tall this tree really is," said Billy. "Why, that is easy enough," said Robert. They ran to the barn, where Robert Robert ipicked out a small pole from a pile of lumber. With a foot rule which Billy brought from the bouse, they found that the pole measured almost exactly ten feet in length. Taking both the pole and the foot rule, they hurried back to the meadow. "Now you sit down and watch me," said Robert. He stuck the pole into the ground not far from the elm, hut outside the place where its great shadow fell. Then he carefully measured the shadow that was cast by the pole, and with equal care measured the distance-from the base of the tree to the end of the shadow cast by its topmost branches. "Your elm is ,one hundred and twenty-eight feet tall," he said, ■ a moment later. "How did you do it V' cried Billy. _ _ / "There could be -nothing easier?" said his cousin. '"The pole is^ ten feet tall, and I found that its shadow is just five feet in length. Now that means that it takes two feet of the pole, with the sun where it is now, to cast a foot of shadow. Of course it is' the same with the tree. I found that the length o| the tree's shadow is sixty-four feet. This means that the tree itself is twice sixty-four feet, or one hundred hundred and twenty-eight feet high. Do you see? That is the way our r teacher had us find out the height of our flagpole." Billy was quick enough to understand,' understand,' and before another day had passed he had measured the height of a score of trees in the meadow and near the house.^--Youth's Com- . panion. 1 Your Asthma, Too.
