Restricted to a single valley, that of the Hlo Ur.inde, In Mexico and Texas, this tree, with Its small crooked trunk bristling with thorns, Is little known to the outside world. It Is popu larly supposed to bear no leaves, (lowers or fruit, but It really bears all three. The minute lenes aro scale-like, the (lowers very small, and the fruit Is a tiny beiry. It Is the only known rep resentative of Us family In ull the world. It Is not known that the Junco ever grew anywhere outside of tho valley ot the Hlo Orande, or that It ever had re latives close enough to claim kinship. Some trees, now nearly extinct, had wide range In past ages the big trees of Cal ifornia, for example, which giew all the way to the Arctic Ocean. Hut the Junco to far ns Is known, has always lived In one place and has always been the same dwarfed, crooked tree that it now Is. Except as fuel, It has not ben put to any use.. Thoiit.ands of cords might be cut In the valley of the Hlo Grande, in Mexico and Texas. Of late, however, tho growing scarcity of hardwood has tailed attention to the despised Junco tree as a pos.-lble substitute for some of the more popular woods, and the result Is a surprise to those who thought the wood had no commercial value. Clarence A. Miller, consel at Matamor.is, Mexico, has called the attention of this govern ment to the good nualltles claimed for It. The wood sinks In water. In color It ranges from brown to black. It receiv es a high and beautiful jKillsh, llttlng it to take the place of such expensive woods as ebony and rosewood for small cabinet work. The trunks are so short and crooked that only small pieces of timber can be obtained from them, tow trunks exceed seven leet In length and eight Inches In diameter. The wood Is said to he admirably suited for thcSteys of musical Instruments, Jewel boxes nnd other bureau cib'nets, chess men, and other small turnery, Inlaid work, and Indeed f' r nlinot all purposes for which costly fop'lrin wood in small pieces are now tired. Manv of the trees, whose woods are familiar in the lumber markets, belong to huge families. There aie mem bers-they are called species -of the pine lamlly, and thfrv me scattered all over the northern hemisphere. The beech and the oak family has even more members, and they, too, are widely scattered, The l.iurel has over '.), tho pnlm l.oiw, whllo the apple, rountlng the many varieties, Is saul to have mine than 3,0), Hut tho Junco Is fighting Its life battle along on the dry slopes of Texas and Mexico, without a relative In the world.

BETTER TONE Little Real Development in the Business Situation during Past Week. TRADE GENERALLY QUIET tfxcesnlte Moisture In Pome Sectlous nnd Flnods In Others linn Restrict ed lltinlnrftn-(,'ropN on the Whole Iletter Than n Yeni Aro Collection Slow. New York, June li. tlradstreet's state of trade tu-morrow will say: Aside from the contlnunnoe of the bet ter tone as regards the future and somu further enlargement of Industrial opera tions notably In textile lines, there Is little new to report as to trada. Busi ness as a whole has been quiet as befits n between-seasons period In a dull year, with unsettled weather conditions In large areas of country and political con ventions attracting attention. Excessive moisture In sections where wheat Is be ing harvested and coin planted or cultivated has curtailed trade and col lections Northwest and Southwest, while flooded rivers and buttom hinds have checked transportation of commodities to market and added an element ot doubt as to ultimate crop outcome. There Is general agreement that retailers' stocks are not large, but fllllng-ln orders con tinue to he frequent rather than heavy. Conservntlvlsm and a disposition to await crop and political developments guard against anything like free buying. Crop conditions halo been rnther irregular, but the promise, on the whole, Is bettor than a year ago. Cotton reports are rather bet ter. Collections arc backward as a whole. Hallway earnings reports coming In are no better and some railroads or Indus trial companies have reduced or passed dividends with, however, little or no effect upon security markots.

"If there were only some -way," began the bachelor, Razing thoughtfully out of the -window of the dining car, "In which a fellow could prove his love" "There are millions of them!" declared the widow, sipping her consomme dain tily. "Those medieval fellows had such an advantage over us," complained the bachelor. "When a chnp loved a girl all he had to do to prove It was to get an other chap to say he didn't, and then to break the other chap s head. That was a sum sign." "And It was so easy," remarked tho widow. "Yes," agreed the bachelor, enthnslas tlcally. "Is there anybody whoso head you particularly want broken? I feel re- marknbly like fighting." "Of course you do," said the widow, sympathetically. "The lighting spirit is born In every man. Hut dueling Isn't n Rlgn of love; It's a sign of egotism, hurt pride, the spirit of competition, the dog-in-the-manger feeling. Hcsldes, It's out of fashion," "Well," sighed the bachelor, "then I suppose I shall havo to save your life or die for you." "You might," said tho widow, nodding encouragingly, "but It wouldn't prove anything except that you had a sense of the picturesque and dramatic. Sup pose you did save my life; wouldn't you do as much for nny man, woman or child, or even any little stray dog who might happen to fall out of a boat or be caught In a fire or get under the feet of a runaway?" "I've got It!" cried the bachelor; "I'll write a book of poems and dedicate them to you," The widow toyed with her spoon. "You've done that to several girls be fore," she remarked, ungratefully. "That's It!" cried the bachelor. "How In a man going to tell when he's In love when he feels that same way every time?" "Have you forgotten your soup?" ask ed the widow, glancing at the untouched plate In front of the bachelor. Tho bachelor picked up his spoon lan guidly. "No," he said, "but" "Hecause If you had," said the widow, "it would have been a proof." "A what?" "A proof," repeated the widow. "For getting to eat your uieajs Is tho first sign of love. A man ma write poetry and swear love by all the planets separately, but If he sits down opposite you an hour afterward nnd orders mutton chops and gravy and devours them to the last crumb either he doesn't mean what he says or doesn't know what he Is talking about. When he lets ils breakfast grow cold and forgetn to go out to lunch nnd loses his lhtrct'lnfjilKj&ner It's a sure sign of love." "It might Tie a sign of dyspepsia," sug gested Ihe bachelor, doubtfully. "Oh, well," proceeded the widow, sip ping her soup leisurely, "there are other signs besides a lost appetite." The bachelor looked hopeful. "Is one of them smelling violets all day when there aren't any round; and feeling a funny Jump In your throat every time you catch sight of a violet bat; nnd suddenly discovering you have written, "Send me eight quarts ot vlo lets and a widow' Instead of "eight quarts of gasolene and a paten pump? The widow leaned so far over her soup that her eyes were completely shaded by the brim of her violet hat. "Yes," she said, gently, "loss of rea son Is one of them and loss of memory.' "And loss of sleep?" "And loss of common sense." "And loss of self-respect." "'And of your powers of conversation." "Nonsense!" said tho bachelor; "a man In love can say more fool things' The widow put down her spoon em phatically. "A man In love," she contradicted "can't talk at all! It's not the things ha says, but tho things ho Isn't able to say; the things that choke right up in his throat" "I've had that," Interrupted the bachc lor. "Had what?" "The 'love-Jump' In the throat." "And did you ever go up stairs to light the gas nnd turn on the water Instead; or -walk three blocks In the wrong dlrec tlon without knowing It; or hunt 10 min utes foi your shoes and then discover It was your collar button or your hat that you hid lost?" "Or add a column of figures and get n poem for the nnswer; or Creak your neck I running to tho ofneo nnd then havo to sit down nnd think what you came down early for; or begin a business letter 'dear est Smith' nnd drop It In the box with out a stamp, or read you paper upsldo down, or" "You've got It!" cried the widow. "I know It," sighed tho bachelor, dreadfully!" "The Idea, I mean," said tho widow blushing. "Those are tho real proofs of love." "Hut," protested the bachelor, "they aren't Impressive, How aro you golnff to let the girl know "A girl always knows," declared tho widow. , "Am you going to say, 'Aramlnto darling, I put on odd socks this morning and salted my coffee and .sugared my chop. Accept this ns a proof?" "No, no, no," said the widow, laugh Ing, "of course not! Hut when you ar rive at her house half an hour before tho time nnd nppear at odd and embarrass Ing moments without a rational excuse and get mixed on your dates and look nt her as If she were tho moon or a ghost, nnd might dlsappoar at nny moment, nnd sit for hours gazing Into space nnd moist ening your lips In the hope that you will think of something to say "She knows that she's got you!" groan ed the bachelor. "Oh, she may not," declared the widow, cheerfully. "Sho may not know anything, She may be In love herself, "That's It," protested the bacholor. "knowing you're In love Is only half the trouble, How aro you going to know when a sir) has reached tho love stage? dlow are you going to know that sho is not Just dangling you, or marrying you for your money? They're so clever and wise nnd coquettish nnd1 "When n girl Is In love," said the widow, "he ceases being clover nnd wise nnd Koquetto. She becomes mooney and silent and begins to notice things about you that you never knew yourself, such as that your nose Is like Napoleon's, or that you havo a prolllo like K. H. Sothern nnd shoulders like Hackett's and linlr like Kyrle llellew's. Hhe never keelii you waiting but Is always dressed and sitting In the parlor an hour before you arrive, and Is never In a hurry to get home, and will walk for blocks beside, you In the rnln with her best hat on without raring, Hho begins to 'mother you" "To what?" ' "To caution you about getting your feet wet nnd avoiding a draught nnd wearing your overcoat, and to look nt you every time you leave her as If she was u f rn lil you would die before morning, and Mr. Trovers, do you know I believe this train hns reached Jersey City?" "Why-why-so It has! Wnller! Walt er! Where In thunder Is that blockhead? Why hasn't he brought us the rest of the. dinner?" "You forgot to order It!" said the widow, looking maliciously up under her hat. "Jersey City! Iast stop'" called the conductor from the door. The bachelor put down his napkin and rose. "Check, sir?" nsked tho waiter, with accusing eyes. "Were you forgetting to pay?" Inquired the widow, softly. The bachelor thrust n hill Into the waiter's hand and stntted down tho nlslc, followed by the widow. "You forgot your change," remarked the widow, ns she stepped Into the depot, ' "Oh, never mind," salt, the bachelor. Where are your wraps?" Tim widow clutched Ills sleeve. "I 1 left them In the dining ear!" she stammered. The bachelor gazed down nt the top of the violet hat with n triumphant smile. "Oh, do go hack nnd try to get them!" moaned the widow, gla.iclng wildly at the train, which by this ttmo was being switched on to a side track. It will be at the risk of my life," de clared tho bachelor, "but If you want any mote " More what?" nsked the widow dis tractedly. Proof," raid the bachelor. It Isn't necessary," said the widow, as she spied an excited porter running to ward them, clutched a pongee coat, u silver hnndbag and a violet parasol. These," snld the bachelor, taking them tenderly from the porter and tipping him, are the most substantial signs of "A lost bend," said the widow, quick ly. Or n lost hnrl," added the bachelor, as they ciossed tin- station and stepped fatuously onto--the wrong ferry bo-it. sUMMiin coi.ns or ciin.minN. A summer cold in th-i head In chlldien Is oftentimes a forerunner of one of the Infectious fevers, nitJ this must always be thought of In connection with th" subject, says Dr. Charlotte West In July Designer. In Infants, a summer cold may result very seriously, for not only Is prop"i breathing Impeded, but nutrition Is In terfered with, as It is well-nigh Impos- j slbb; for the child to nurse. The proper amount of oxygen Is not taken Into the lungs, and the .air, laden with dust nnd germs, Innalcd through the mouth, set up a train of disorders of the throat and lungs. Unless the cold Is checked In Us acute stage, the normal development of the nasal passage Is arretted, and de formities result. healthy, hyglenlcally-cared-for-baby should not take cold. When an lnfunt is exposed to cold and dampness, or is al lowed to lie In a draught, or when Its bodily functions are below par, It !s very apt to suffer from summer cold. Hie child should be given a hot drink, sweetened fennel or camomile ten, the bridge of the nose and the space between the eyes and brows gently annolnted with a good cold-cream (any sweet fat. such ns mutton tnllow, suet or gooo grease will answer the same purpose,) and the nasal passages cleansed with an -alkaline solution used In soft rubber-ball syringe Where there is a tendency to repeat ed attacks of summer cold, the system should 1 J built up with Iron and cod llver oil, and locally the nasal passages sprayed (after cleansing them of mucous with a warm dilute alkaline wash, gly- cothymollne) with the following applica tion; Menthol. 10 grains; Liquid Albolln, 1 ounce. Mix and use In an atomizer. It Is very good for this purpose. CASUALTIES ARE MANY. Parliament Ilulldlngs lit Tclicrnu Are Prnetlcnlly In Itlllns. Teheran, June 23. After a. bloody tight which was waged around the Parliament building to-day tho city was com paratively quiet to-night although the Cossacks were camped In the streets and squares. Cossacks and soldiers tarly In the morning surrounded tho Parliament and demanded that a number of persons whoso arrest the Shar had ordered be forthwith handed over to them. Parlia ment refused to comply with this demand and shots were fired at the troops, several of the soldiers being killed. Orders were nt onco Issued from mili tary headquarters that the Parliament building bo bombnrded and the bombard ment commenced soon after ten o'clock. While this wns In progress bombs were thrown from tho Parliament building nnd the mosque adjoining disabling one of the guns and wounding the gunners, Kventunlly the halls of Parliament were cleared, but not before many persons had been killed mid wound ed. The bombardment continued until three o'clock In the afternoon when It suddenly censed. In tho meantime the troops pillaged tha political clubs In that neighborhood and numerous residences of Influential membets of Parliament In which work they were aided by the populace. The number of casualties Is unknown but It will bo very large. Tho Parliament buildings are prnetlcnlly In ruins. The tiring was conllned to Parliament square, other parts of the city being compara tively quiet.
