which we roamed when first we
shared the joys and sorrows OF
mankind, the dearest recollections
OF ones life? Human nature may
be weak and partial in this respect,
but there can be no patriotism that
is not based on love Of home and
country, Of home institutions, and
ofhome industries. So, on this
broad principle, taken all IN all,
cur own Arkansas is to us the
most admirable country in all the
world. There is not patriotic and
Industrious citizen in all this great
State who can not well congratulate
himself that be is privileged to live
among SO bospitable a peo-
pie. There have been instances
almost innumerable in which the
characteristics Of our generous
minded people have been impress
ed upon Us, but, just now, the most
vivid in cur memory is the truly
royal entertainment OF the Nom

be called Ihe proudest city in the
State. Her railroad interests are
already extensive, and with the
splendid facilities offered they bid
fair to be more so. Her newspaper
men, in point Of ability and enter
prise, take rank with the highest,
and here are published some Of the
best Journals in the State.
The opening day Of the Agsocia

with waving flags and flying bunt-

presented an unusually holiday ap-
pearance. The Association conven-

Opera House. The session through
out was particularly enjoyable and
we can but hope that the result
will be equally as profitable.
Many fine speeches were made
on subjects Of peculiar interest to
newspaper men, and excellent pa
pers were read. The object of this
organization is to meet, discuss, and
exchange views on subjects OF in
terest to the profession and thus
form close bond Of union between
it's mem mbers. Besides the mutual
benefit derived, IL is pleasure to
meet and become personally ac-
quainted with contemporary quill
drivers. with some OF whom we
have had only an K acquaintance.

our especial pleasure TO meet Chas.

Rheumatism In Children.

Rheumatism is name applied to
one of the earliest classified of all dis
eases. In the public mind the word is
connected with swollen and painful
joints, or, less frequently, with pain in
the muscles or sinews.
As our knowledge of rheumatism has
broadened, we have learned to consider
il disease of the system in general,
resulting in local manifestations.
The pain and swelling in the joints
are due to the irritation exerted by the
poison of the disease-which is circu-
lating in the system-upon the delicate
structure which compose the joints
themselves.
The action of this rheumatic poison
is felt also upon other parts of the
body. Recurring tonsillitis is often
the result of sucR action upon the
tissues composing the tonsils. This is
frequently the ease in adults: it is
much oftener so in children. The ac-
ton of the rheumatic poison is less
frequently exerted upon the joints in
children, SO that rheumatism is com
monty looked upon as disease of adult
life.
One symptom of the rheumatic temp
erament occurring in children is the
development of little rounded bodies
beneath the surface of the skin and
around the joints. They are most
common along the margins OF the knee
pan and elbowjoint, and along the
backbone and collarbone. They ap-
pear quickly without pain, but are slow
in disappearing.
rheumatism, according to the best
authorit es, is the most common cause
of the nervous disease called st. Vituss
dance. An inflammation of the chest
wallis, called pleurisy, not uncommon
ly develops during an attack of rheu-
matism, from the presence of the rheu-
matte virus in the system.
The most dangerous disorder to
which the rheumatic temperament
gives rise is the wcll-lSnown one of
heart disease.
1t should be understood that the
growing pains of children are often the
only evidences Of q rheumatic tend
ency. The chief safeguard against
such a tendency lies in giving children
proper food and a sufficicncy of exer.
else.
Details Of the management of chill
dren subject to rheumatic symptoms
should in all cases be referred to the
family physician.

Diamond MeteOrs,

There can be no doubt as to the ex-
istence of diamond in mcteoric iron.
This is the first time that this precious
stone has been found in what may be
considered its primitive gangue. In
all the rocks where it has been hither
to met with, even in the pegmatite Of
India, we may see that it has been in
troduced as such during the formation
of the rock. Here, on the contrary,
the very state of the diamond, which
appears as a fine powder disseminated
in certain parts of the meteoric iron,
seems to indicate that it has taken it's
origin on the spot, and has been formed
during the consolidation or crystaliza-
ton of the moss.

Anethysts

The common amethyst is only crys-
tai, colored purple by manganese and
iron. The largest amethyst i'm the
world, it is claimed, has recently been
cut by a Denver lapidary. The deeper
the tint the less brilliant the stone, for
which reason the ancient engravers
preferred the light-colored variety. In
taglio of all dates and of every style of
work occur in amethyst, but usually
only as the light-colorcd sort; in fact,
an engraving on "a dark stone may be
suspected of being modern.
The pale amethyst was supposed by
Tossing and other writers on gems to
be the hyacinthus of Pliny, which, ac-
cording to him, differs from the
amethyst, ''inasmuch as the violet
splendor of the amethyst is diluted in
this gem, and SO far from filing the
eye, does not even reach it, fading
away more speedily than the flower of
the same name" This flower was not
our hyacinth, a bulb derived from
hersia, but was the blue iris or fcur-de-
lis, the blossom of witch only lasts one
day.

Ince-Nfakinc school.

A school of about three hundred and
fifty Italian girls, wearing the national
costume and I'LL industriously at work
on exquisite lace, Is pleasant and in
teresting place TO visit. So writes
Madame de Boret, who visited a lace
making school at Burano, an island I'm
the Adriatic Sea few miles from
Venice. The girls, who are from 10 to
10 years OF age, sit in great, barely
furnished, well-lighted rooms, on low
chairs holding their lace frames on
heir knees.
They wear short, bright-colored
petticoat, green, red or orange tichu
crossed on the chest, silver rings in
their ears, and around the neck bead
or coral necklaces. They have dark
eyes, teeth like pearls, smiling red lips,
oval faces, fine protiles, and dark hair
worn knotted in the back of the neck
with silver pin by the older girls, or
in long rIpylets by the younger one.
They draw their needles slowly and
gracefully back and forth, and gravely
except when some girlish joke raises u
storm of smothercd laughter.
The teachers superintend the work
carefully, and the pupils make fine
Venetian, Bruss sells, Alencon, and Ar
gentan point and guipure laces. They
sometime I'LL orders for wells worth
five thousand francs. A lace drapery
whichKwas shown Madame de Boret
represented Il vast amount of work.
Seven months had Eeen spent in MAX
ing the foundation of it,
The price of the laces is fixed accord
ing to the time spent in making them,
the rate being frame day. The
more skillful pupils add to their in
come by doing lace-worl< at home also.
They all like the school, and though
the pay seems small for such fine work,
it secures them II comfortable living,
for little money goes a long way in
the island of Burano. Queen Marghe-
rita of Italy has been generous pat
ron of the school.

A Work of supererosatlon.

That was an apt retort given the
other day byothe pretty cashier in u
downtown restaurant. A certain ma 4
about town often brcakfasted there
and as often chatted with and quizzed
the young lady, sometimes to "a tire
some extent. Indeed she mentally
compared him to Tennyson's brook,
for men might come and men might go,
but he went on forever. One morn
ing he watched waiter hopping be-
fore the door.
"Why do you make such muss?" he
asked.
She explained that it was necessary
to clean often before the door because
of the dust from the street.
''Why don't you put a Windmill be-
fore the door to blow the dust away?'
was his next question.
With a demure glance at him from
her innocent blue eyes she replied:
There's one there now."-Waverley

Telephotography.

Every one who is interested In
photographs of outdoor scenes--and
who is not:--must often have wished
10: some satisfactory means Of obtain
ing larger pictures of distant unattain-
able objects than can be got with an
ordinary camera. The WRIT of this
remembers with keen regret that the
lack of such an instrument or device
prevented him from obtaining some
most desirable pictures during visit
to- the Yellowstone Park.
For instance. many mud swallows
build their nests under the projecting
lodges of the Liberty Cap" at the
Mammoth Hot Springs. and sitting in
the open doors of their habitations they
gaze down upon the spectator beneath
with the Indifference of conscious So
curity. With "a camera that combined
the powers of Il telescope and a photo
graphic plate most pleasing picture
of these birds. showing them appar-
emily close ut hand, could have been
made.
Such cameras have been devised, but
it is only quite recently that they have
assumed II fairly satisfactory form.
Tbe desired result is brought about by
means of a peculiarly constructed lens.
consisting of a positive lens in front
and a negative lens of much shorter
focal length in the rear This gives
an image several times as large as that
obtained with an ordinary camera.
With such an instrument photo
gruphs of birds and other animals
which cannot be approached closely
can be made, showing them in their
natural attitudes and OF sufficient
size to exhibit their characteristic fca-
lures. II is also suggested that this
method of telephotograph will prove
useful in astronomy.

When lace is used, it Is accordion

secn in the hat illustrated, which is of
petunia-col straw. The Alsatian
bow is of accordion-plaited lace held
in place by II Jet buckle. Asmall piece
of the lace is so placed that it falls

Venerable Plants.

ages to adorn the dead. The French
scientist. V. Lorget, has published %
book under the title of 1.-The Pharaonic

wonderful herbarium. Many of these
plants are more than 5000 years old.
Before they were arranged in the
Cairo herbarium they were soaked in
warm water and freshly dried
and pressed Among them are
flowers of the pomegranata, the
red poppy, blue and white To-

and leaves of the leek, onion and
celery, with which the dead Egyptians
were buried in those days.

A Esur-Footed Wire-Layer and Her
Ways OF Working.

Many people in Brighton are inter-
ested just now in watching the clever
work of strip, the Electrician" who
after laying down many miles length
of copper wire, for the purpose of cleo
trio lighting, in London, has lately
come to Brighton with the same OBJ
ject.
Lest Mr.. Edison should not at once
recognize the name of his distinguis he'd
collaboratrice," we will explain at
once that Strip Is clever little fox
terrier, the property of Messrs. Cromp-
ton, the electrical engineers, and that
she is under the special protection
ol that cQmpany's night Waterman.
Strips method of working is as fol-
lows: Theworkmen lay down, IN the
desired position, short length of the
stout iron pipe which is to shelter a
corresponding length of the copper
wire along which the electric current
will ultimately pass.
The iron pipe having been fixed,
Strip is called, has the end of the cop
per wire fastened to her collar, and, at
the workman's sign, goes in at one end
of the pipe-''And comes out at the
other end" says an intelligent but too
hasty reader. Not so, however. The

across it, over which the copper wire
must be strained to keep 1t taut. Strip,
having entered the pipe with the wire
fastened to her collar, presents herself
at the other end to the workman
awaiting her there, who thrusts his
hand under the bar, unfastens Strips
collar, and draws it and the wire out.
Strip, when she feels her collar gone,
turns round, retraces her steps, comes
out again at the same end she went in
at, and lies down on the workmen's
coats until she is wanted again.

Although for the moment there are
plenty of rumors but no radical changes
or deviations in the general line upon
which fashions are moving, there Is an
endless series of innovations in minor
characteristics Taking the one item
of the corsagc, the styles are legion.
Very often the modfste selects the
sleeves of one model, the fronts of
another. the back of third, creating
IA novel style of her own. and this quite
frequently from remnants of various
novel or dainty fabrics, combining
them with such picturesque effect that
outlive many more expensive gar
ment made of a s!>gle material and
from familiar pattern.
