We made little run to Weldon last
week and found the people very much
encouraged as to the future OF town. The
water power is pra ctically unlimited and
it is thought, and reansonably SO, that 1t
will soon do much towards developing
the town.
The mammoth corn mills now IN course
of erection there are to be the largest III
the country. We had only lew
minutes in them, but learned little OF
t he capacity of storing corn. There are
Is bins each 10 feet square and 50 feet
deep, where the corn will be stored be-
| fore it is carried int o the mills.
Large apllal has been put to work
and the canal, which reaches nine miles
from Weldon, up the river, is about COM
pleted. 1t will convey water enough to
| do vast deal of work.
| Lands are selling high il Weldon and
all things point to great future for the
town. Not magic growth, to be sure,
but steady and prosperous growth
which is now only matter Of reasonable
time. We congratulate our Weldon
friends and the county generally on th'
good outlook for the town.

ABOUT AND FOR MY LADY.

Two WOMEN were naturalized the
other day at Leavenworth.
THE manicures say that pretty wo-
man rarely has pretty hand.
AN Iowa girl recently ran away from
home to avoid playing on the piano.
ABOUT the only women in the world
who swing their arms walking are
Americans.
Two SOCIETY women of Albuquerque,
Il. NJ, are said to have become insane
from the use of cosmetics on their faces.
PERSIAN women have little education,
and are reared in seclnsion and igno-
rance, knowing nothing beyond the
walls of their house.
BRIDES usually avoid jewels on their
wedding day, but a girl who was re-
Gently married wore them on her gown,
at her threat and in her hair.
A LADY came to the polls in Fort
Scott, Kan, who refused q ticket from
those doing them ont, saying she had
her ticket already prepared. She was
allowed to have her own sweet way,
and when the ballots were counted out
her registration ticket, with her name
in big letters, turned up all right.
CIRcAssTAN women, it is said, who
are noted for the velvety softness of
their complexions and rosy bloom,
never use ointments OF any kind. They
apply to their faces half an hour before
their bath thorough coating of white
of egg. When this has completely
dried they wash it off with tepid water,
and then proceed to battle as usual in
soap and water.

Six Pairs of SCISSORS That Could Be Hid
den Under the Wing of Fly.
At a shop in London in 1745 says the
st. Louis Republic, was exhibited a
common Barcelona nutshell holding a
tea table, tea board, dozen cups and
saucers, with sugar dish, bottle, fun
mel, fifteen drinking glasses, five punch
bowls, ten runmels, pestlc and NOR
tar and two sets of nincpins-all Of pol
ished ivory, exquisitely fashioned and,
according to the account OF the time,
-'all to be plainly seen without the aid
of optic glasses" This wonder was the
work of poor artist who had hit upon
this plan to make a living. His little
exhibition was soon outdone by Bower
iclS, the matchmaker. For one shilling
this last-named genius would show vis-
itors TIE half Of a common cherry stone,
from which he would take a Guadrille
table, twelve chairs with skeleton
backs, a loolzing-glass neatly framed.
two dozen plates, six saucers, twelve
spoons, dozen knives and forks, two
salt cups, ana q lady ana gentleman
whom he seated at the table. This
same BovericlS also made an ivory
camel that could be passed through the
eye of a common needle; six pairs Of
steel scissors that could all be hidden
under the wing of a common house fly,
and gold chain of two hundred links,
to which a miniature paddock and key
were attached, all of which were Of
such minute dimensions as to be easily
pulled across pane of glass by flea.
Later on, he produced small ivory
coach to which he harnessed flea,
coach and steed weighing exactly as
much as barley grain; and crane
necked carriage, with wheels turning
properly on their axles, carrying four
passengers, two footmen, coachman
sitting on the box,oa dog between his
legs, driving six ivory horses, one OF the
leaders bearing position, the whole
affair so light that this same pet flea
could set it in motion, but was not
equal to the task of dragging it across
The showcase.

The Influence of Colors.

Colors not only influence cattle, but
human beings also. On this point some
curious experiences are reported from
Italy as to the effect of colors on the
nerves of the sick and insane. In the
hospital for the insane at Alessandria
special rooms are arranged with red or
blue glass in the windows, and also red
or blue paint on the walls. A violent
patient is brought suddenly into blue
room and left to the effect of that color
on his nerves. One maniac was cured
in an hour; another was at peace in his
mind after passing day in room of
violet. The red room is used for the
commonest form of dementia-aelan-
choly-usually accompanied by re-
fusal to take food. After three hours
in the red room patient afflicted in
this way began to be cheerful and ask
for food

ART NOTES.

THE most unalterable of water col
ors have been found to be yellow ochre,
terra sienna, sepia and blues.
THE British Museum, it is stated, has
been offered statue recently recovered
in Egypt after burial of over three
thousand years.
ABOUT two miles above Parkersburg,
W. Va, the site of large prehistoric
village has been found, and many relics
unearthed.
AT Mont Del, in Brittany, the re-
mains of about one hundred elephants
have been discovered, gathered on a
small surface of about nineteen hun
drcd square meters. All the bones are
broken, and il is thought that the
animals must have been eaten by pre-
historic men.
AN interesting curio sold at the Bray
ton-Ives sale was hawless crystal ball
5 57-10O inches in diameter. In Japan
such spheres are objects of worship,
and those five inches in diameter are
exceedingly rare and costly. This one
is hawless and sold for twenty-eight
hundred dollars.
IN gem engraving, whether intaglio
or relief, there has been wonderful adj
vance in the last ten years. Coats of
arms, once rendered wholly in enamel,
are now accurately reproduced in semi
precious stones. Rock crystal is ex-
quisitely carved into scent bottles,
essence TASKS, bonbonnieres, inkstands
and SO on.

AN OLD MAIDS CENTENNIAL.
In All Her Long Life She had but One
Sutton.

In All Her Long Life She Had but One
Sutton.
She is one hundred years old, has
never been married, and probably
never will be. These facts, says the
Boston Globe, combine to make Miss
Permelia Wright famous. She lives at
Benton Harbor, Mich, and upon any
bright day may be seen walking the
streets, leaning on big cane. She has
retained her faculties, and remembers
many things that happened when the
century was just beginning.
She was born at Fairfax Courthouse,
Va, April 2, 1871. She says she never
married because she could not bear the
men. She remembers being courted
eighty years ago, but by a bungling
sutton. and since then she has not talked
with a man except upon matters of
business. She has considerable prop
erty and manages it herself. Her mind
is sound, she reads without glasses, has
a remarkably good appetite, regulates
her sleeping and working hours by sun
set and sunrise, and is remarkably reg
nlar in everything she docs. She had
her picture taken upon her one hun
dredth birthday, and laughingly at
tributed her long life to the fact that
she had never been fatally sick.

FOUR CURIOUS PLANTS.
Natures Hoax, Mother-in-Law, Lovers
Own and Scotch Attorney.

Natures Hoax, Mother-in-Law, Lovers
Own and Scotch Attorney.
In the United States Botanical Gar
dens, at Washington, D. c., are four
very curious plants, to which the Post
of that city alludes as Natures Hoax"
the "Mother-in-law plant" the Low
cr's plant" and the Scotch Attorney"
Natures Hoax" grows wild in Aus
tralian forests. The seed lodge about
five feet from the ground in decayed
trees, and the plant puts out leaves in
the shape of heads of deer and elk
Many hunter has been fooled by the
plant.
''Thc Mother-in-law plant, or dumb
Cane" is really the Deffenbachia Sc
guina picta. An auctioneer, being I'M
able to rattle off the botanical term,
called it the ''Mother-in-law'' plant, be-
cause of its queer qualities. The pecul-
iarity of the plant is this, that if man
takes bite of it his power of speech is
taken away and his tongue is apt to be-
paralyzed for week. Humboldt's ar
ticulating muscles; were paralyzed for
eight days by this plant.
A specimen of the mimose rudica is
called the Lovers plant, because if a
girl be really in love this plant will curl
up at her touch; if not, not.
superintendent Smith, of the Gar
dens, has facetiously termed creeper
the Scotch Attorney" The latter is
credited with engaging himself in a
case and absorbing everything of value
in it before quitting it, and that's what
the plant does.

The Great Pfttps Taken with his PERSONAL
Appearance.
1T was Just after one Of those famous
battles in Bulgaria that several war
CORES Ezkaeas. Ito writer among 9TH
ers, sought an interview with Gen. Sko-
belief, says the New York World APP
preaching the generals quarters, we
were accosted by a guard.
.'Who are you?"
A'MacGahan, correspondent" That
was all; and we passed into the in
closure.
1t was picturesque scene, lighted up
" the glow of camp-fres, around
which about couple of hundred Cir
cassian Cossacks rested in picturesque
confusion. We made our way up to a
round canvas tent An orderly asked
us our business. TELL the general |
am MacGahan,' and hearty response
came out of the tent in good English:
Come in. Is that you, Mac? Ali and
jackson" We entered. 1t was a
strange sight that met our eyes. Clad
only in striped-silk shirt and trousers,
Skobeleff sat at little camp table, on
which stood a small mirror, before
which was an array of combs and
brushes and toilet requisites. And
what do you think the most famous of
Russian generals was doing? Carefully
polishing his finger nails with an ivory
handled nail brush, his valet-orderly
standing at attention beside him and
brushing his uniform. The battle had
only ceased an hour before, yet Slsobe-
left had already taken bath, had
washed off the stains of battle, and,
with hair carefully combed and beard
brushed to a fashionable nicely, IS if
he were preparing to attend ball or
a banquet, he was deeply interested in
completing the minor details of his
toilet. 1t seemed impossible to imagine
that the handsome fellow before us,
spruce and clean as if he had never
smellcd powder for a month, was
the famous general whose dashing
heroism was the admiration of the
world. But as soon as he began to
speak there was no. installing who it
was.

It is a curious fact that water pipes
under the ground will often freeze dur
ing the warm spell that follows cold
snap. The explanation made for this
interesting phenomenon is, that after a
cold wave large quantity of heat is
taken from the ground in the work of
changing the frozen moisture into
water, and thus, on the principle of the
iee-cream freezer, the pipe is chilled,
enough heat being taken from it to
freeze it,

There is a curious freak of nature to
be seen along the road leading from At

but neither is impedcd in its course.
