Character and Object.

Send two persons out of the room;
then select character and an object
which are closely related TO each other
for instance, George Washington
and his Ratchet, ''Sir Walter Raleigh
and his cloak" cleopatra and the
asp" Call in the persons and tell one
of them to be the character, the other
the object; then they ask alternately
questions of the company, which must be
answered by yes or no. They general
ly, after much questioning, find out
who and what they are. Persons and
objects may be of local fame, often
causing much amusement. - Good

was very black and very cunning.

black kitten walked into the house, and

as some other children might be wait

her out of doors and drove her off

The Agricultural Profession.

The educated agriculturist is slowly
but surely driving the uneducated and
unthinking man from the field. With
the retirement of every quack and the
corresponding advent of the thinking
man on the farm arena is elevated the
whole agricultural profession, which is
thus brought one step nearer its true
position that it justly held in Roman
times-the foremost rank of all the
world.-Science.

into view, but his brief sermon, though
unpretentious, was rather worthy eff
fort in its way.
1t is quaint little church where Lit
tie Bobby held forth-everything plain
and simple, with a general pervading
air of suburban rusticity. A small
family organ furnishes the music, and
the congregation does the singing.
Little Bobbie was attired in a purple
velvet suit, with ruffles and frilIs, long
brown leggings, low shoes, with ribbon
bows and buckles, and his brown hair
was carefully combed.
When the preliminary service of
prayer and singing, conducted by the
pastor, the Rev. Mr.. L. McElveen, was
over, Little Bobbie slipped gracefully
from his chair, stepped up ON his box
pedestal and began his sermon. In an
easy, offhand way he announced his
text.
1t was tiny figure that faced the
audience, and the voice was a childish
treble, but every word was distinct, and
the tone was energetic. At times he
brought down his little fist with
whack upon the pulpit to emphasize
what he said. With rapt and almost
reverent attention the audience listened
to his words of wisdom.
Il shall speak," he began, ''of the
boyhood of Jesus" He was listened
to with marked attention, and his ser
mon showed careful preparation and an
understanding which seems almost i'm
possible to one of his age.
A beautiful bouquet was presented to
the preacher at the close of his discourse.

A Terrible Encounter.


Mice as well as wasps catch and eat

dow pane and catching flies. When he
had caught one, he sat down like a

THE OUTLOOK
Pine Blur will Add New Life During the
Spring and Summer Months.

From the present outlook we are
ofthc opinion that Pine Bluff will add
new life during the spring aud sum
mel months. For the past few years
! the city has been dead to anything
in he way OF pleasure especially at
parks, but from present appearances
we.are,destined to have brighter times
in the near future. In the month OF
May, beginning about the 18th, the
spring races ut Jones Park will be-
gin and this event will bring hun
dredA OF visitors to the city. Therac
ing will continue for about one week
and it may be still continued. The
bicycle club will arrange for a series
OF races at this time and as there are
SO many wheelmen in the city the
racing promises 10 be interesting.
Clubs from other towns and cities
will be invited and altogether the
time promises to piss very pleasantly.
As this is election year we will of
course have two or three barbacues
during the summer months and will
also have the pleasure on these occa-
sions of hearing tie candidates speak
to the dear people" After the
election is over the Colored Industrial
Fair Association will have series of
ut the Jones Park.
Really it seems that Pine Bluff will
this ' G n put on some OF her former
airs and times will not drag as heavi-
" ms has been the case recently. We
were about to overlook the fact that
the chanches are we will have Sam T
Tones with us during the summer

weller still

TO Vote a clover woman.

The cleverest woman in the matter
of dress is the plain woman who con-
trives/ never to let you know she's
plain. To be successful in this respect
one must have natural good taste It's
no use to put ones self entirely in the
hands of good dressmaker. Dress
makers need directing. They can't be
expected to know customers
weak or strong points as well as she
should know them herself. All women,
except those with hopelessly bad fig
ures and no threats, pay for dressing.
A gown is usually becoming If Il Is the
same color as the wearer's eyes. A
bright bandeau under the brim OF d
hat Is apt to have an improving effect.
Good taste is a thing to be thankful
for. Those who possess it are inclined
to value It too lightly.
