It will surprise many to know that they have in their homes material es­ timated to be 4,000 years old. If the Shingles or interior finish is red cedar or if you have a red cedar chest It Is possible that the wood antedates the history of this country by thousands of years, says the Cleveland Leader, A Cleveland man is credited with bringing the first red cedar into this section, W. A, GelBt, on a western trip several years ago, was attracted by the red cedar forests at Port Angelus, Wash. He established a mill there and began shipping the cedar to the. eastern market Formerly the south­ ern cedar was used in great quantiUes, but It Is the claim of Mr. Geist that the product from the Pacific coast is growing -In favor and the demand for it Is increasing. ' It Is a most durable wood and its use In a borne guarantees that motbs and other troublesome insects will not enter. It Is used for wainscoting, man­ tels, cupboards, cabinets and especially for chests in which to store furs and clothing. Mr. Geist exhibits a quantity of red cedar cut from a tree be esti­ mates to be at least 3700 years of age, Three large cedars were'found growing from a fallen log which was five and one-half feet In diameter. The largest of the three tree-* growing from the fallen tree was ten and one-half feet in diameter. By counting the rings In both trees indicates that-the fallen tree, still' sound, is nearing its four thousandth birthday. Mr. Geist Is an expert upon red cedar and goes in "for the history ot the wonderful trees’ of Washington and other coast states as a biographer would the data upon the life of some famous man. He surrounds a bolt of shingle cedar with un interesting story, which goes back.to the misty ages and something like reverence grows within the listener, for this venerable work of nature. Unquestionably the red cedar Is the oldest material used In the construc­ tion ot me home and few materials Will outwear It,: It being nearly inde­ structible, except by fire. GRAVE CAUSE FOR DISPUTE Romanticists and Others Have Oppor. tunlty to Squabble Over This Happening. . The Winatis will haB upset the the­ ory of the cynics, that romance is dead In the world. Here Is an innkeeper's daughter who receives a fortune of $600,000 Just for being kind to an old man, In all her dreams, of the future she never thought of being able to present to the Prince Charming that would eventually come along such “a princely dower. She went aboht -ber work delivering the milk and cream from her father's dairy, little think­ ing that the old gentleman, who year after year was her father’s guest, was all along planning to make her a rich heiress as a reward for her lit­ tle kindnesses. The picture is idyllic. U&fortunatoly, some of the rightful heirs of the deceased multimillionaire fail to see. the poetry of It and have already given notice of a contest There is a son who has been cut off with a paltry $200,000 and there are two grandchildren who have bean en­ tirely forgotten. In the case of the son the will is particularly significant, since the relative smallness of the amount can be traced to the father’s disapproval of a murrlage that was wholly romantic. The cynics may still claim that their contention is support­ ed by the courts. Our Company.
