The Caaerta Camellia Tree
In the days of Its glory the palace at
Caserta of the king of Naples had
among Its features a so called English
garden made In 17S2 by order of Marie
Caroline of Austria It was bright with
flowers and wonderful rare oriental
plants and trees so that it was re
nowned throughout the world but the
crown and glory of all consisted In a
camellia tree a plant then unknown
In Europe The seeds were collected
as though flakes of gold and the queen
nsed to give them and cuttings of this
camellia as presents to her friends
These cuttings were most highlyprlzed
and thus It has become a European
flower so much so that the exporta
tion of camellias Is an extensive Indus
try In central Italy and In Germany
there are vast fields of them In Its
palmyjdays the Caserta plant had eight
branches the largest of which was
twelve Inches in diameter the whole
being thirty feot high This mother
plant was in a flourishing condition up
to a few years ago bnt lately tho gor
geous garden has been allowed to fall
Into decay and with It the glorious
camellia Pall Mall Gazette

Tobacco Leaves
A scientist writes The essential
quality for which tobacco is smoked or
chewed lies not really in the leaves
themselves but Is contained in thou
sands of hollow knobbed hairs which
cover their surface The vital nicotine
Is garnered in these pear like balls but
as it is impossible to shave off these
hairs and would be a scarcely com
mendable achievement if it could be
undertaken it becomes necessary to
preserve the whole foliage for com
mercial purposes
