BARK OF TREE NOT WOOD
Scientist Corrects an Impression
Which Has Long Been More or
Less Widely Held.
Bark on trees and shrubs corre-
Hs with the skin on But
wood, according to one scien
tist, and it isn’t formed as wood is
formed. It covers the wood, and it is
generally an easy matter to separate
the bark from the wood. Hemp and
jute and flax are all bark—the outside
covering of certain vegetable growths.
Bark is composed of three layers of
tissue. The inside layer conducts food
to the plant, and under a magnifying
glass is seen to be made up of tiny
fibers. Then there is the “green zone,”
as it is called, and this also is fibrous
and helps feed the plant. The out
side layer is cork, and is really dead.
That Is, these cork cells develop and
die immediately, so one really sees
only a dead tree when he looks at the
bark. The cork of commerce is the
bark of a certain kind of tropical tree,
but the outer layer of bark of all trees
Is technically known as cork, and the
little cells going to make it up are
called cork.
Every man pays for what lie gets—

Why He Stayed.
Lieutenant Governor Channing Cox
of Massachusetts, discussing the high
cost of living in France, said the
other day:
“In Paris, you know, a good pair of
shoes fetched SSO, and a good meal
about as much.
“Well, a young lawyer started on a
brief vacation trip to Paris in June,
and he long overstayed his time. On
his return in late September a friend
who knew he was none too flush, said
to him:
“ ‘Why did you remain so long In
Paris, Jim?’
“ ‘My friends kept me there,’ Jim
answered.
“‘Your friends? Why, Jim. I didn’t
know you had any friends in Paris.’
“‘I haven’t. My friends are all in
Oshkosh, and they refused to lend me
any money.’ ”

A Jew In Russia was ordered twenty
strokes with the knout. The whipping
man was also a Jew, so the other was
able to “square” the affair for 20,000
roubles.
It was arranged that the one should
merely crack his whip while the other
screamed. This was done nineteen
times —but the twentieth stroke was
genuine.
“Why did you do that?” cried the
victim.
“To let you realize what a bargain
yon have got,” the other said.
