The third party Prohibitionists In
this State must be proud of their work
this week. They could not succeed
in defeating General Harrison. ALI
that they had the strength to do was
to beat Warner Miller and to elect in
his stead the favorite son of the sa-
looms, and to put off for three years
the adoption of a high license law,
with its inevitable diminution OF
drunkenness and crime. For large
part of the criminality, profigacy
drunkenness and taxes of this State
during the next three years the third
party Prohibitionists will be response,
BILE. This is proud record for 9

Walking on the Stage.

walk was stride, that would excite the
laughter Of his fellows If he entered q
drawing room in that manner. The
amount of labor involved in the art Of
actors Of his class is appalling to contem-
plate. Il is evidently concentrated upon
the task Of smuggling ones self under an
expansive shirt front, and presenting the
same continuously TO the audience. 4

A Japanese Cauphor Factory.

Canphor is made in Japan in this way:
After tree is felled it is cut up into chips.
which are laid in n tub. or large iron pot
partially filed with water and placed over
slow fire. Through holes in the bottom
Of the tub steam slowly rises. and heat
ing the chips generates oil and czrnphor.
OF course. the tubs with the chips has .
closely fitting cover. From this cover q
bamboo pipe leads to succession Of other
tubs with bamboo connections. and the
last of these tubs Is divided into two COM
partments. one above the other. the divid-
Ing floor being perforated with small
holes to allow the water and the oil to
pass to the lower compartment. Tho
upper compartment is supplied with q
straw layer. which catches and holds the
caInphor in crystal in deposit as 1t passes
to the cooling process. The camphor Is
then separated from the straw. packed in
wooden tubs. and Is ready for market.
The oil Is used by the natives for iluinin-
ating and medical purposes.-Nev York

The Origin of Pottery Ware.

Every man, no doubt, used his gourd as
gourd alone. But as time went on he
began at last, apparently, to employ it as
model for pottery also. In all proba-
bility his earliest lessons in the fctile art
were purely accidental. 1t is a common
trick with savages to put water to warm
on the camp fire in calabash or gourd
with wet clay smeared over the bottom to
keep it from burning. Whenever the
clay thus employed was fine enough to
form a mold and bake hard in shape it
would cling to the gourd, and be used
time and again in the same way without
renewal, till at last it came to be regarded
almost as a component part of the COM
pound vessel. Traces of this stage in the
evolution of pottery still exist in various
outlying corners of the world. Savages
have been. noted who smear their dishes
with clay; and bowls may be found in
various museums which still contain moro
or less intact the relics of the natural OBJ
ject on which they were modelled. In one
case the thing being imbedded in the clay
bowl is a human skull, presumably an
epemy's.
In most cases, however, the inner gourd
or calabash, in proportion as it was well
coated up to the very top with good
productive layer of clay. would tend to
get burned out by the heat of the fire in
the course of time; until at last the idea
would arise that the natural form was
nothing more than mere mold or model,
and that the earthenware dish which grew
up around it was the substantive vessel
AS soon as this stage of pot making was
arrived at. the process of firing would be-
come deliberate, instead of accidental,
and the vessel would only be considered
complete as soon as it had been subjected
to great heat which would effectually
burn ont the gourd or calabash imbedded
in the center.-Grant Allen In Popular
Science Monthly.

The traveller is often rudely shocked by
the contrast between the reality of the
present and the ideal picture of the an
Gent Arcadian life Of the rural districts
or the intellectual and artistic life of
Athens. But doubtless if we could be
transported back to ancient Greece, we
should find much that would not please
us in the daily life Of the people. Men
may say, "'Tis Greece, but living Greece
no more;;" it is still an enchanted land for
me. No other civilized country withdraws
the visitor so far from the ordinary rou-
tine of the present; no other land affords
SO many suggestions of the life of the an
clients from whom our civilization comes.
| am sure that understand Greek art
better because of my life for few weeks
under the Athenian sky. A few days in
Peloponnesus, and few more in Central
Greece, gave me a clearer comprehension
of Greek political history. The Homeric
age seems more of reality after study
of the ruins of Tiryns and Mycena. The
pastorals of Theocritus have new life and
meaning when the traveller hears the shep-
herds pipe and rustic singers vie in amoe-
bean strains, while he eats bread and milk
from the wooden bowls which his hosts
have carved.
A few of the ancient customs survive
The lover Of Homer is delighted to find
that the Greeks still throw back the head
to express dissent or refusal, and that tho
trim maid still pours water on the visitors
hands. Some old superstitions have re-
manned, notably that of telling a disturb
ing dream to the rising sun, in order that
the threatened i'll may be averted. No
land is more thickly peopled with fairies
and every kind of benevolent and malis-
nant spirits than the Greece of today.
Doubtless many of the ecclesiastical Gus
toms of the present have been nodded
by the superstitions of the past.-Thomas
D. Seymour in Scribner's Magazine.

THE CROP OUTLOOK.

Topeka, Aug, 2-The secretary of the
state board of agriculture is now receiving
his monthly crop reports. They show the
crops of the eastern half of the state to be
in very satisfactory condition, but the
critical moment has arrived in northwest
and southwest Kansas, where rains must
be had Immediately. There have been
good rains throughout eastern Kansas
within the past two weeks, and the reports
say that all of the early corn is assured.
and some of the late corn would turn out
well with another ram. There have been
some very hot winds during the past week,
but owing to the moisture of the ground
they have done no damage in the eastern
half of the state, but some parts or west
ern Kansas where rain In badly needed the
Lot winds are doing much damage Nh
Mohler said that without any more rain
the yield in the state would be larger prob
ably than ever before, bnt some counties
would be cut off almost entirely. while
others would have an ABUNDANT crop. The
situation he does not consider an encour-
aging one now as a month ago. A good
rain at once in western Kansas would make
"A very fair crop.
