WHAT MAY BE LEARNED 



FROM 



A TREE. 



BT 



HARLAND COULTAS, 



AUTHOR OF "ORGANIC LIFE THE SAME IN ANIMALS AS IN PLANTS," ETC. ETC. 



"Sweet are the uses of adversity, 

 Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous. 

 Wears yet a precious jewel in his head ; 

 And this our life, exempt from public haunt, 

 Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, 

 Sermons in stones, and good in everything."
