\ woman never forgets her sex, she would rather talk with q man than an angel any day. Womani} women are very kindly critics, eX- cept to themselves, and now and then to their own sex. The less there Is of sex about a woman the more sine is to be dreaded But take q real woman at her best moment, well dressed enough to be pleased with herself, not so resplendant as to be show and sensation, with the va ried outside influences that set vi- brating the harmonic notes in her nature, stirring III the ar above her, and what is social life to compare with one of these vital inter-changes of thought and feeling with her that makes an hour memorable:
 What can equal her tact. her deli cacy, her subtlety of expression, her quickness to feel the changes of tenn perature, as the warm and cool cur rents of thought blow by turns: At one moment she is microscopically intellectual, critical, scrupulous in judgment as an analysts balance and the next as sympathetic as the open rose, that sweetens the wind from whatever quarter if finds it's way to her bosom. 1t is in the hos pitable soul of woman that a man for gets he is stranger, and so becomes natural and truthful, at the same time he is mesmerized by all those divine differences which make her mastery and bewIdermcnt.-[Oli- yer Wendell Holmes.

Facts for the Farmer.

This is a busy month with oul
 farmers, Last month (February) most of the early potatoes were planted and q large acreage of spring oats sown. This month most of the corn grown will be prepared and a majority planted. There has been | little or no winter south of Little Rock the ground has not been frozen oats have grown all winter, and we have never had better prospect for winter oats than now they are foot high in most parts of the fields; our meadows, too, are green. To a northern man there are some remark able facts regarding red clover in Arkansas, and one is that the longer a field is kept in clover, when good care is given the land, the thicker and better the clover. Is it not strange that after so many years of neglect, we should discover that our State is peculiarly adapted to fruit and grasses:
 Study our new climate map and see what a delightful country we have, the 35th parallel passing through about the center of the State. On this parallel, in every part of the world, civilization has reached its highest standard. Only one degree of mean temperature be- tween Little Rock and Los Angeles, California, and that Is in favor of Little Rock.
 Vegetation has nine months growth. We have sufficient rainfall and are not obliged to irrigate, and the greatest number of days with the least variation of temperature of any locality on the American continent. There are so few of the comforts and luXuries of life that we do no pro- duce that we can afford to send and get the rest Forest and Farm.

The Last Pint lie Had.

Not long ago Schator Blackburn wen, oal to Western Texas on T pleasure excursion, and cH route took in thv Indian Territory. He was so pleased with it., green, hIue- grass appearance that he concluded to make horse back journey through part of it. One day, when he was riding along taking in all the glories of the great pastu.e land, he was oyertakcn by well-mounlc" we'll armed and well dressr', l>.,-s,,l. who spoke u Iiltic English.
 "Cowmau, eh:' was hi frs; in- quiry.
 "Oh, no; I'm just looking at this fine country. l don't live here; l live ill Kentucky
 "Kentucky. Ogh, You got whisky:'
 The Senator had small flask of "Old Crow" in his side pocket, and immediately produced it. In little time the Aborigional wanted second drink, and finally the whole flask ; but after giving him two small jig gers" the ciyilties were brought to all end.
 That evening, when the Senator was in the public room of the hotel at the little Texas town, he told the circumstance of having met the h. dian, and said:
 "In all my life 1 have never seen any human being on God Almighty $ green earth that ever had tithe of the appreciation for bottle of whis- 1 key that this red-sllin manifested. Gentlemen, l am telling you not a whit more than the absolute truth when l say the Indian begun by of fering me his repeating Colts rifle, and ended by dismounting from his horse and offering me his ArapahoC blanket his Mexican silyer-mOunted saddle, his gun, pistols and the horse itself for what remained in my flask l really believe he would have givel me his leggings, moccasins, gee strings and all, and gone back naked for just that little modicum oi whiskey."
 Well, Senator" said one of hi, auditors. why didn't you trade with him|'
 Trade with him exclaimed th' Kentuckian in utter astonishment fl such a suggestion. My God man it was the last half pint l had !'- Washington Critic.

AGRICULTURAL.
How to Meet the Demand.

There is no one subject in agrlcul- ture which demands at the present day more care. coniinued and widely extended. then the practice of mannr- ing. \ soil can not be cultivated undcrstandinglv until it has been rightly subjected to such eXamina- tion as will tell Us, as nearly as any examination can tell it, what is nec- essary to make it fertile.
 A fertile soil is one that is fully supplied with the three essential and principal elements that go to make up the growth of plants. Of the less important clements they are supplied in sufficient quantity, unless it is a remarkably thin or sandy soil, so that there is little or no need oi anxiety regarding anything but the three principals-nitrogcn, phos- phoric acid and potash. Because a soil will not produce satisfactory crops is no certain evidence that It Is infertile any further than is caused by the absence of one of the neceS' sary and principal ingredients ol plants. There may be an abundance of nitrogen and potash, and an entire absence of phosphoric acid; the two first named are fcrtilizing elements but third and important one i' lacking or the combination may bt changed so that there is an abundance of nitrogen and phosphoric acid. with no potash or, again, there may be an ample supply of phosphori( acid and potash with no nitrogen In either case one might expect tC grow satisfactory crop about th' same that one might expect to bullC q satisfactory brick house from an, two of the three things-hrick, sanC and lime-of winch 1t is constructed
 Now we come to the point of th' examination of the soil for the pur pose of determining what, if anything is lacking to insure satisfactor' crop. At first vlew this may appea to be a difficult matter, but httl consideration of the ease will dispe all doubts in that direction. Make little experiment station of your ilelt by devoting an acre divided into one sixteenth plats, and plant one pla with no kind of fertilizer on tn
 next use nitrogen in some form; thel upon another use phosphoric acid upon still another, potash; and thel use the different clements in differen combinations. Note the growth an' products of each different plat, an' a knowledge will be gained by tn
 most reliable means that can be de vised of the actual wants of the soil There is no better way, and the out lay for material is fully repaid in tn valuable knowledge acquired.- Mir TOT and Farmer.

MISSES GOT THEIR MEDALS.
The Examination ut the School of Design
Concluded Yesterday and the Prizes
Awarded by the Judges.


The Examination ut the School of Design
Concluded Yesterday and the Prizes
Awarded by the Judges.
The examination at the School of Design
started yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, and
late in the afternoon the decisions of the
judges were given to the public.
In the oil painting department Miss
Laura Dummett received the gold medal
for production of Japanese ware. The
silver medal was accorded to Miss Mary
Patterson for a picture of luncheon deli
cacies. Miss Dummett, the young lady who
took the gold medal this year, was awarded
the silver medal two years ago.
In the department of drawing from life
Miss Emma Patterson was awarded the first
prize for drawing Of an old lady's head.
In the water color department there was
a great deal of active competition. The
pretty color works of Miss Maud Marion
Palmer and Miss Boyd were considered to
be the best productions, and they rivaled very
earnestly for supremacy. At last the judges
decided to accord the first prize to Miss
Palmer for a production of grapevine.
Miss NJ. Brokaw received the highest
recognition for the best set of designs exc
cuted in the class.
The work exhibited is all of good high
average, much even better than it has ever
been before, and on that account the judges
found it great deal harder to make the de-
cision. The best painting exhibited was
stated to be from the brush of Miss Minnie
Nickum, who obtained the gold medal last
year, and she therefore did not compete this
time.
In the department for drawing from life
Miss Emma Patton was awarded gold
medal. and for full length antique draw
ing Miss May Murray took the prize of a
bronze medal.

HE PAWNED THE WATCH.
A Tale of an Empty Box, and the Grief of
nm Old Mana Clever Trick.

A Tale OF an Empty Box, and the Grief oil
an Old Mana Clever Trick.
For ways that are dark and tricks that are
vain, ask express agents. and they can tell
of them. A little tale came to light yester-
day that is interesting.
A man, a gentleman possibly, went into
an express Office some days ago with small
box. He wrapped it carefully, sealed it
with the company seal and valued the pack
age at $50. A receipt for the value was
given according to the company's rules, and
the man left.
The directions were not any too plain,
and the box went to another town of SIM
liar name. The seal had become broken
and the agent there resealed it. After
wandering around the country the box
finally reached the owner, when the climax
came.
The package contained nothing, and there
was howl. The express company was in
hot water, but throug gh the shrewdness of a
route agent the mystery was cleared up. and
the guilty person confessed.
Itseems the old man sent his gold watch
to the city to be repaired. When finished
he instructed his son-in-law to forward it to
him. The latter was hard up, and pawned
it. He sent the empty box as ruse, and it
put the express people in sorry predica-
ment. When hard pressed the young fel-
low acknowledged all, produced the watch,
and the old fellow now basks in the golden
light reflected from the bright case The
express agent heaved sigh of relief when
he found he wouldn't have to whack up
the $50.
