To Restore Worn Clothing.

The mystery to many people how the
scourers of old clothes can make them
look almost as good as new is explained
in The American Analyst as follows:
Take, for instance, a shiny old coat, vest
oil pair of pants, of broadcloth, cassi-
mere or diagonal. The scourer makes a
strong, warm soapsuds and plunges the
garment into 1t, souses it up and down,
rubs the dirty places, If necessary puts
1t through a second suds, then rinses it
through several waters, and hangs 1t to
dry on the line. When nearly dry, he
takes 1t In, rolls it up for an hour or two,
and then presses it. An old cotton cloth
is laid on the outside of the coat, and
the iron passed over that until the
wrinkles are out; but the iron is removed
before the steam ceases to rise from the
goods, else they would be shiny.
Wrinkles that are obstinate are re-
moved by laying a wet cloth over them
and passing the iron over that. If n
shiny places are seen they are treated as
the wrinkles are-the iron is lifted,
while the full cloud of steam rises and
brings the nap up with it. Cloth should
always have a suds made specially for
it, as IL hat which has been used for
white cotton or wooden clothes lint will
be left in the water and cling to the
cloth. In this manner we have known
the am coat and pantaloons to be re-
newed time and again, and have all the
look and feel of new garments. Good
broadcloth and its fellow cloths will bear
many washings, and look better every
time because of them.

How a Baby Opens 1t. mental Eyes.

How n Baby Opens Its Mental Eyes
In the last volume of the Educational
Series" on "The Development Of the In
tellect" Mr.. II. W. Brown has presented
a conspectus of the observations of Pro-
fessor Preyer on the mind of the child,
which shows chrohologically the gradual
development of the senses, intellect and
will of the growing child, and presents
in a condensed form the result of a great
number of careful observations. 1t is
recorded hat sensibility to light, touch,
temperature, smell and taste are present
on the first day of infant life. Hearing,
therefore, is the only special sense which
is not active at this time. The child
hears by the third or fourth day. Taste
and smell are senses at first most active,
blu they are not differentiated. General
organic sensations Of well being or dis
comfort are felt from the first, bu. pain
and pleasure, as mental states, are not
noted till at or near the second month.
The first sign of speech in the shape of
utterance of c%onsonant sounds is heard
in the latter part of the second month,
these c~onsonants being generally "m,"
"r," "g," or ST." All the movements of
the eyes become coordinate by the
fourth month, and by this time the child
begins to have the feeling of self" hat
is, he looks at his own hands and looks
at himself in the mirror. The study of
the child's mind during the first year
shows conclusively that ideas develop
and reasoning processes occur before
there is any knowledge of words or Ian
guage; though it may be assumed that
the child thinks in symbols, visual or
auditory, which are clumsy equivalents
for words. By the end of the year the
child begins to express itself by sounds;
that is, speech begins. The development
of this speech capacity is, according to
Preyer, in accordance with the develop
ment of the intellectual powers. By the
end of the second year the child's power
of speech is practically acquired.

by the property holders for the site

seven thousand dollars is big thing

The closing exercises of the Edenton
High School, Prof. F. P Hall, princi-
pal, took place Tuesday evening last
The programme for the occasion was
we'll selected and all the pupils per-
formed their parts in a manner highly
lcreditable, alike to themselves and to
the teachers under whose tutorage they
have been most carefully and thorough
ly trained The speeches, dialogues,
recitations and the music were all sur
passing in excellence, placing anything
like discrimination, In favor of one or
the other Of the participants, almost
beyond our powers. 1t was quite diff
ficult to tell who did the best. We
abide, however, the decision of the
judges who awarded the medals ss
follows: For Elocution, Miss Bessie
Wood; for Oratory, Master Solomon
Levy; for Geography and Arithmetic.
Miss Maggie Fletcher; for Spelling.
Qst CLASSY Miss Venie Boush: for Spell
ling, (2nd class) Miss Jennie Levy;
for Spelling, (3rd class) Miss Matte
Wool; for Spelling, Oath class Master
Geo. Fl. Coke. For punctuality the
medal was awarded to Miss Mary
Brinkley, to whose praise be it said,
was not absent from any duty during
the entire session of the school. The
medals were presented by. Mr.. W. M.
Bond in his usual, telicitous manner
in behalf of the Principal of the school.
Although the weather was incessant-
ly hot, the house was kept cool ty
means of fans, arranged on either side
of the building, which were most in
dustriously pulled by couple of color
ed boys, quite equal to the occasion.
The evening was happily spent and
all came away from the hall not only
pleased but, happy in the prospect
which seems ahead for Edenton when
all the boys and girls, now in training,
shall come to the front the guides and
lights of society aud business.
