WELL SAID.

Blessed is the boy who has father
or mother or sister who teaches him
to keep Off the streets of nights, to
avoid the company of hoodlums and
toughs, to refrain from swearing and
all profane and vulgar language, 10
steer clear of cigars and cigarettes,
cards and craps, and never to drink
beer or other intoxicating beverages;
exhorts him to truthfulness and clean
liness and all the habits of man.
And blessed is the boy who is ambi-
tious to know something, who reads
good books and newspapers, and
whose father, mother or sister insists
on his mastering a rich, varied or vital
command of language, who sends his
letters back to him corrected, and with
sarcastic queries whether the term
"you bet" or "gol darn it," or "bully,D
or "tip top" covers the whole realm
as charming language and character

AN IMMENSE SPECTACLE.
Columbus and the Discovery of Amer
lea With 1900 People.

Last season and the year before
Barnum and Bailey introduced into
the circus the production of fgreat spec
tacles. 1t was an original idea with
them and they very successfully car
ried it out for two years, Finding 1t
met with such universal approval, and
that 1t delighted and instructed while
bewildering and amazing the whole
people, they decided upon continuing
so very meritorious feature and have
this season produced another, but up
on so grand and colossal a scale as to
utterly dwarf all their previous great
triumphs. The past successes gave
them the necessary experience to per-
fectly produce the present one, and
based upon the knowledge gained in
the last two years they have now in
dlsputably the grandest and most
overwhelmingly magnificent historical
terpsichorean and thrilling spectacle
the mind can possibly conceive Of Its
magnifcence and grandeur surpasses
belief, while its wealth Of riches and
embarrassment Of romantic, pictures
que groupings and colorings are well
nigh incomprehensible. The theme,
too, is both well-timed and appropri-
ate, occurring on exactly the 400th CEN
tcnary Of the finding ofthe New World
and when the nation is about to COM
memorate the great event by a Worlds
Fair. Columbus and the discovery of
America, as It's title suggests. is n
realistic reproduction Of all the cir
cumstances connected with the life of
the famed discoverer as well rs those
parts Of history in which he WINS an
important actor. The battles between
the Moors and Spaniards are shown
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1892-10-17

with Columbus as combatant ON the
side of the cross against the crescent;
the ancient cities of Spain are seen
with their old walls, turrets, towers,
gates and palaces; the interior Of the
famous Alhambra palace by moonlight
is a rayishing scene, with the Moorish
dancing girls in their lovely costumes,
dreamily and POLITICALLY interpreting
the wild, weird music and songs of
those days, Moorish warriors in all
the splendor of steel armor, and high
priests in their sacred robes; the chiv-
airy of Spain; the brilliant court of
Ferdinand and Isabella, with its rich
and noble attendants, cavaliers and
courtly danes costumed in a style
demonstrating an utter disregard of
expense; soldiers armed with cross
bows, arquebuses and other ancient
weapons; festivals, fetes, displays page
ants, triumphal professions, tourna-
ments on foot and on horseback, games,
combats and other exciting features
succeed each other with thrilling rap
idity until ones mind is lost in be-
holding them Then follows the
trials Of Columbus, his efforts to OBJ
tain recognition, his success and first
voyage, the discovery of America,
the life of the Indians, their dances
and games, the return voyage Of
Columbus his triumphal entry, into
Barcelona and-well, there really is
80 much to see thet description fails
Of half Suffice it for grandeur of
conception and manifcence of exc
cution it stands without a parallel in
the annals of amusements. The cost
to produce ii was half million
dollars, no less than $4,000 being
spent in scenery alone, while the
costumes cost $250,000, and the armor
weapons, trappings etc, $50,000 more,
besides months of time devoted to
searching in the archives of Spain for
the historical data. Besides all this
there are three circus companies in
three rings, two elevated stages, the
hippodrome, mystifying illusions, two
menageries, two herds of elephants,
two droyes of camels, trained animals
20 clowns, so aerialists, 100 circus
performers, 100 circus acts, curious
freaks in the animal creation and a
thousand novel and wonderful sights
as instructive as they are ediiying and
amusing. The entire of all this will
be here just as represented on Friday
Oct. 2l, with the new free street
parade in the morning at o'clock.

Deafness Cant De uured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is anly one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the muscous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out, and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition. hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed con
dition of the mucous surfaces.

Soap.

What is wanted of
soap for the skin is to
wash it clean and not
hurt it. Pure soap does
that. This is why we
want pure soap; and,
when we say pure, we
mean without alkali.
Pears is pure; no al
kali in it; no free alkali.
There are a thousand
virtues of soap; this one
is enough. You can trust
a soap that has no biting
alkali in it.
All sorts of stores sell
it, especially druggists;
all sorts of people use it.

ssA & Monster 4 EVERGREEN 4 NurSerys e

The annual catalogue of the Evergreen
Nurseries, of Evergreen, Wis, has been
issued, and this office has been favored
with a copy. They list fully 800 varieties
OF coniferous evergreens. Some of them
are very strange and unique in form ard
habit of growth. They have been to
great pains and expense to secure seeds
and plants of evergreens found native in
all parts of the earth. IL Il man wants
evergreens cheap but good, for screens,
groves, windbreaks, or hedges, there is
no better place to go in America. If a
man is fond of the marvellous strange and
curions forms in nature, there is no other
place in this country where his fancy can
be satisfied with rare and beautiful ever
greens.
The nurseries are growing the plants
In immense numbers, planting the seeds
by the ton. They imported from one
seed house in Germany last season 230O
pounds besides all they gathered in this
country, getting large quantities from
Colorado, California, Washington, and
all the western states and territories. 1t

DEPARTMENT OF EDUcATIoN-,Jrr.
fERsoN CRY, Mo. BY the terms Of
the original contract entered into with
Taintor Bros. g. Co. through their
i agent, the time for exchange with
+; pupils was to expire January /, 1898,
and a retail agency was to be estab.
llshed in every county of the state.
But when this contract was presented
to Mr.. Talntor, he delayed signing it
and finally refused to sign it. In
view of the extreme cheapness of
these books, being cheaper than anv
excellent series Of readers had ever
before been offered in this country.
the commission at an adjourned meet.
Ing finally agreed to strike from the
contract that portion providing for
the establishment of retail agencies
in every county in the state and to
limit the time for exchange with pu.
pills to September 20, 1892. With
these changes the contract was sign
ed and the bond made.
But in the mean time, on reason.
ablo supposition that the company
would sign the contract entered into
by its agent, circulars in accordance
with the original contract had been
printed and sent out in answer 10 a
flood of inquiries pouring in upon the
state superintendent and members of
the commission.
All readers should be exchanged
before September %, 1892. After
This date. tie books cannot be had for
less than the retail price. In many
cases, it will be too late to exchange
after school begins in the fall Of 1892.
The boards of directors should take
hold of the matter at once and make
the change for their districts either
through the local dealers or directly
with the publishers-Tainter Bros. &
Co., New York.
The matter Of exchange with pupils
is scarcely less urgent with regard to
the other books adopted by the COM
mission, for section 10 of the text
book law prohibits, after September
/, 1892, the use of any other text
book in the same branches and of the
grade, under a penalty upon the di.
rectors of not less than five nor more
than twenty-five dollars for each
offense.
In the contract with Z. ii. Butler
& Co., the publishers of Buffers
Biographies, the following sentence
Get ''The said party of the sec.
ond part further agrees to relieve the
dealers of all merchantable stock held
by them at dollar for dollar" In a
circular 10 dealers sent out by L. H..
Butler C Co. and dated January Z,
1892, I find the following 1--WE
would say that our contract with your

biographies in the hands of dealers. !
To be understandable they should be
in good condition, containing the
census of 1880 and the new states last
admitted into the Union-North
Dakota, South Dakota, etc."
This Interpretation is unwarrant-
able and is q gross imposition upon
the people. If E. II. Butler & Co.
do not retract from this position, q
test case should be taken up at once
This Interpretation of the word ''mer.
charitable" would render at least
nine.tenths of all the biographies on
