The next smallest army is that of Luxembourg, with its 135 gendarm-es, 170 volunteers and thirty musicians. In the republic of San Marino they can put in the field a total of nine companies of 950 men and thirty-eight officers, commanded by a marshal. The army on a peace footing consists of one company of sixty men. The most amusing of all the “armies,” however, is that of Liberia. That country’s fighting force is composed of “Then,” said the grandmother, “the next time he tempts you say, Get thee behind me, Satan’.” Shortly af- terwards, the precious laddie was again caught in the act, and upon again beingr scolded. murmured: “I said, ‘Get thee behind me. Satan,’ and he got behind me and pushed me into the middle of the bush.” Once he convulse-d his hearers by telling: them of a “wee Scot laddie” who had developed the habit of pick- ing his grandmother’s gooseberries. Caught in the act, he declared that it‘wes the Deyi1_ who tempted him. Lord Kinnaird has often occupied a pulpit as a preacher. He is distinctly evangelical in tone. and has learnt the art of being able to drive homely truths into the hearts of his congrega- tiou without hardly ever raising his voice or indulging in eloquent ges- tures. Nor is he above raising an occa- sional laugh with a word, or a phrase, or a story. Lord Kiniaaihi. mum has gone to Egypt for a three months trip. was at one time a famous footballer. A hand- book published thirty-eiuht years ago described him as “without exception the best player of the «lay. capable of taking any place on the field.” He was quite fearless himself, but his mother suffered some anxiety on his account. When the late Sir Francis Marindin, also a footballer. called up- on her one day, she exyxressed her fear that “Arthur Would some clay come home with a broken leg." “Don't come home with a broken leg." “Don't be alarmed,” smilingly answered Sir Francis, “for if he dues it will not be his own.” The Baobab Is a Dwarf In Height 811! of Enormous Girth. Not all the “big” trees of the world grow in British Columbia, as many might suppose from having seen so much in print about the giant sequo- t ias of that province. The eucalyptus ‘ trees of Australia and Tasmania attain a greater height, for instance. Of '-course, any tree hearing its topmost branches from 300 to 350 feet up in the air is bound to excite the admiration of the beholder, and the two varie- ties mentioned are the only ones en- joying this distinction. But when it comes to size of trunk there is an- other to share the honor. This is the giant baobab tree of Africa and India, another name for which is the mon- key-bread tree. Many are to be found in tropical Africa, where it grows to huge size of trunk. Unlike the sequoia and eucalyptus trees, however, the baobab does not attain any great height. Its trunk may be 20 to 30 feet in diameter, but the branches spread out at a height of 25 to 30 feet, often extending 60 to 70 feet and sometimes bending downward so that their tips nearly touch the ground, making a leafy tent of quite large prOportions. The name monkey-bread comes from the fruit of the baobab tree, which is a wood capsule about the size of a citron an contains a farinaceous pulp of pleasantly acid flavor. The wood is very soft and the hark is used by natives for making rope and cloth The Smallest Armies. Peer In a LARGE TREES.

The man followed the advice and was cured; but the hal-it of asking for food had become so fixed with him that hef was once nearly locked up as a luna- 3 tie.

The production of “kelp," or burned seaweed, which is the first stage in its preparation. is an industry that is rapidly develop- ing in northwestern Europe. The hardy kelp burners of the Hebrides and Irish coast have now strong:r rivals in Scandinavia, and in one Norwe- gian province at least the revenue from this work already exceeds that derived from fishing and aggiculture. In America it has been fouild to be a valuable source hf potash gremlv s-t The London industry which employs Devonshire and Japanese seaweed in the manufacture of such diverse ob- jects as cloth, stout shoes, golf balls, policemen‘s boots, picture frames, marbled floors and electric switch- boards, by no means monopolizes its uses. In Cornwall seaweed is used as a fertilizer for the land, in France it finds utility as a stiffener for mat- tresses and a size for straw hats.
