 Speaking of the Arkansas exhibit, that of our timber is very attractive and made in very unique way. It Is in the form of library of seventy fine volumes. From across the room you wonder what kind of binding it is that makes those books so attractive, so uniform and yet, no two alike. An eX- animation of the volumes will at once relieve you of any further speculation  of solid pieces of highly polished woods. each one of d different klnd of wood. The lettering on the volumes III the places where titles, author or pup fishers names. are usually found. in- dicate the scientific and the everyday name of the several woods of which they are made. In this shape the ex- hiblt takes up very little room and at the same time gives the public true idea of our wonderful timber resources and the high polish to which 1t IS suS- ceptibe. Thus showing that We have fine timber for all purposes, and only wait for capital to work it into furnl- ture, etc This notable state exhibit and novelty of design is the work and

Worlds Fair Notes,

A trip to the Worlds Fair is very large sized undertaking. The visitor who would see it quickly and economi
 cally should procure a copy of the off cial guide, and become familiar. be-
 fore leaving here, with the location of the buildings and how the land lies.
 This book may be had for 50 cents. and is a time saver. It will euable the viS-
 itor to view the exhibits without re
 tracing his steps and will explain hun
 dreds of questions which are constant
 ly arising in ones mind. There are
 hundreds of guides and time savers.
 Be careful to get the official one which
 is sold on the grounds, and can be had
 by mail or of newsboys.
 When you have become familiar with the grounds, etc, put S75 in your
 pocket and don't miss the fair. Ordi- narily, except for railroad fare. less than $50 will be required for visit of
 two weeks. One may spend as much more as he likes. Good first-class rooms may be had in any part of the city, at any price. An elegant room with two beds, bath room, closets. tow
 els, all furnished, cost the writer Sl per day. The room was amply large and would accommodate four persons. thus the rate would have been 9 cents
 each. had there been four of us. For a l family such accommodations are very cheap. and quite desirable located on 1 3lst and Cottage Grove Avenue, with cablecars running in both directions, carrying you either to or from the city, where one goes to attend the theatres
 and see the tall houses, the panoramaS, and fine stores, or to the 51th street
 entrance to the exposition grounds. or to the west entrance of midway plaiS- ance. either for five cents, and with out change, which latter fact is con 1 siderable satisfaction, because to be
 compelled to change cars to and from l the places of interest is tireSome, and sometimes hard to accomplish, owing
 to the crowds. X very economical per l son can see the Worlds Columbian 1 Exposition in ten days for So5 and no l less. This does not include railroad
 fare, of course, and the amount may be
 increased in proportion to appetite. de-
 Sires, curiosity. etc. The entire trip
 from Forrest City to Chicago via Ft
 Smith and return. from June 19 to l Juiy II, cost the writer S55. Of this time seventeen days were spent in Chi
 cago. rooms were taken in three differ
 ent parts of the city, and the accom- modatlOns above mentioned were the 1 last and most satisfactory in every re-

THE colored population of the For rest City school district are well quail fled to speak of the advantages to be gained by suspending the school for d season and putting the money into a house. A few years ago the schools were suspended in order that nice comfortable building might be erected for them. Ask the colored people if the poorer classes were imposed upon, It has been d God send to them.

Mas MARY E. LEASE of Kansas, lectured in this city Monday, on the financial situation, giving special at tention to the silver question. A large audience greeted her, composed Of all political classes. She was listened to attentively, and in some of her flights of oratory was quite eloquent, and re- ceived the plaudits of her hearers. As for her opinion having any weight we are not prepared to say, as we have more authority in this city to the square inch on the silver question than any town ill the state.

EVER since the erection of the new building for the colored population their number has been on the increase in the district. On the other hand ever since the white school has been taught in divided buildings it has been on the wane. THE TIMES prefers to see these conditions reversed.

Growing n Beard.

with IL sigh of despair. II know it, but the
truth is, Slubber, I'm afraid

4 Javancsc Bed.

The very bed on which man reclncs at
night in Java affords him considerable op-
portunity for reflection. At first sight it
never occurred to him that the great square
object-looking with its covering of mos
quito curtains more like Il huge brtlcaCc
than anything elsc-was Il bed He knows
better now and proceeds to examine it
with interest before turning in for the
night He finds that the large square mat
treSs is covered by sheet, but otherwise
entirely devoid of bedcloihing. At the TOP
are two pillows for the head, and down the
center is placed Il long, round bolster called
ii Dutch wife.
This scarcely comes up to his notion of
what a bed should be, but after he has
slept-or tried to sleep-for two or three
nights i'll the hot, steamy atmosphere of
Batavia he changes his mind lie finds
that bcdclothes are not wanted in the coast
towns of Java, and i'll particular he learns
to appreciate the relief which he expert
ences by throwing arm or leg over that
useful cOntrivancc for securing coolness

Diagnosing From the Teeth.

A certain local professor on one occasion
was lecturing to his class on the means of
diagnosing disease by the external appear
ance, face and other details of the patient.
Expressing his belief that patient before
the class afforded an example of the prac-
tice in question, the professor said to the
individuals
"Ah, you are troubled with govt"
40, sir" said the man. I've never had
any such complaint"
But" said the professor, your father
must have had govt"
No sir" was the reply. Nor my mother
either"
All, very strange" said the professor to
his class. II am convinced that this man
is IL equity subject. see that his front teeth
show all the characteristics which we are
accustomed TO note in govt"
Front tecth'' calculated the patient.
Yes" retorted the professor I'm CON
WINGED my diagnosis is correct. You have

the man. Its the first time, sir, I've ever
heard of false teeth having the govt. I've
