GREW QUITE DRAMATIC,
Senatorial Campaign Meeting a
Yorkville. S. C.

Yorkville, s. c., Aug. 12--Tne senatorial
campaign meeting here today was quite
dramatic. Candidate Mayfield made good
en- offer that If he could not prove that
Senator McI4aurin had tried 10 organize
a Populist party in South Carolina. he
would withdraw as a candidate Tor the
limited States senate against McLaurln-
He said that he was now convinced from
proof McI.aurin had given him that Nc
i,aurin largely prevented Populist organi-
zaIt.on in South Carolina. He said he had
done Senator McLaurin an injustice and
would withdraw from the race. Senator
McIaurin shook his hand and thanked
him amid great applause
Governor Evans then revived the charge
by asserting that Senator McLaurin had
invited him 10 go into the Populist party
with him. and this led 10 hot Discus
sion. Senator McLaurtn spoke with suca
yehemence that he tainted after conclud-
ing. He was then taken 10 his hotel and
the doctors insist on his resting for a few
DAYS. Governor Evans and Senator Me-
Laurin showed much feeling toward each
other.

fell, and Winters fired several shots at
him. DIR. Winters is known all over

"God giveth His beloved Sleep" and
little children should have plenty of II.
1t is the tendency OF the times to dis
regard this necessity; hence the in.
crease of nervous diseases among our
young men and women. Sleep means
growth with young people, and unless
there is much sleep there will be no
healthy growth.
Nature teaches a little child to lie
down and sleep whenever it is weary,
and after Il bath or after its midday
meal, and it is only through artificial
influences that little child leaves of
the habit OF taking daily nap, and II
is generally due to the mothers neglect
that 1t is finally dispensed with. Yet
the world often sympathizes with the
mother rather than the child when to-
ward night baby grows cross and fret.
full, while the mother often grows i'm.
patient, forgetting the long, tiresome
day which the little one has endured.
What wonder that these little ones
grow up into nervous young men and
women, with no constitutions to SPEAK
of,
Many grown people are pressed foi
time to accomplish all that they desire,
and in their march for gold or daily
bread, find little time to rest, yet there
is no reason why they should begrudgs
their children an extra hours sleep in
the morning because they have an in.
herited idea that it is more healthfu
for them to rise early, and they fear
that If they are allowed TO sleep until
they naturally awaken, habits of lazi
ness will be formed which will MAJ

The Compass Plant.

What is known as the Compass plant,
Pilot weed, and Polas plant in differ.
ent localities, is quite curious, and in
former days, when there were no rail
roads, was of great value in guiding
travellers. The leaves invariably point
north and south. Mungo Park has
immortalized it as he says he was
guided by it, when otherwise his way
would have been lost and he would
have perished on the dry plains. The
peculiar faculty of thus pointing to the
north and south attempted to be OK.
planned by the fact that both surfaces
OF the leaves display equal suscepti.
bility to light whereas the upper sur.
face of the leaves of plants, in general,
is more sensitive to light than the
lower; hence the vertical position of
the Compass plant, as unerring as the
mariners compass. Professor Asa says

leaves are said to present their faces

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1897-07-15

Professor F. Plateau, of the Univer.
sity of Ghent, has for many years car.
rled on series of observations on the
mode on which insects are attracted to
flowers, the results of which are pub
lished in the bulletin of the Royal
Academy of Sciences of Belgium. His
conclusions are not in accord with
those OF Darwin, that the bright color
OF the corolla acts as beacon to at
tract insects. He believes that they
are attracted chiefly by some other
sense than that of sight, probably that
OF smell. In the case of the dahlia
(single) and other species OF Compo-
site, the removal of the conspicuous
ray horets have but little effect on the
visits of insects; nor had the removal
OF the conspicuous part of the corolla
in other flowers, as long as the nee
tary remained. On the other hand,
says Nature, the artificial placing of
honey on otherwise scentless flowers
resulted in their being Immediately
visited by numbers of insects. Where
the same species varies in the color of
the flower, as between blue and white,
or red and white, insects visit quite
indifferently flowers of different colors
belonging to the same species.

A Crawling Rug.

Among the first instruments" to be
used toward the education of the little
son of the Duke and Duchess of York
is crawllng-rug. designed by Miss
Emma Windsor, who is famous for her
intelligent. Interpretation Of the Froe-
bel idea Of education.
Froebel she says, constantly urged
upon mothers the necessity of the in.
fants' education beginning at their
mothers knee, and thinking of this
has led me to the invention of the ba-
bies' crawling rug. 1t is large floor
picture of animals, birds and domestic
figures, made Of real skin, swansdown,
and other materials sewn on to flannel,
and is quite in harmony with Froebels
idea.
For rs soon as baby is put on the rug
the first thing that the mite does is to
begin to kick and stretch out its limbs;
then it begins to roll over and look
about, and tries to clutch at the pretty
animals on the rug. Then baby finds it
beyond its reach, and the first attempt
to crawl is after puss, or some other
equally familiar form which it sees Oh
the rug.
The kicking, the stretching out the
hand, the observation, the crawling,
and so on, are all what Froebel calls
education.
AS baby grows older It learns, with
the help of mother and nurse, to imi.
tate the different sounds which the ami.
mails make, to pick out one from the
other, and to learn their names.
Then baby should be taught to stroke
each animal gently, and to speak its
name in tender tones. Then the infant
will early learn that love Of animals
calls forth the love of mankind.
1t is good plan to teach the baby to
notice pictures of animals in children's
books, and to call its attention to liv.
ing animals and their actions. As the
child grows older its delight in it's zoo.
logical carpet increases; and children
of seven years OF age are known to
greatly appreciate them.
The place for the rug is the nursery,
the drawing-room, the bathroom, the
seaside, and on shipboard.
