4 SUPERB EXHIBITION
OF ANCIENT AND MODERN
 NEEDLEW0RK, ETC.
Something That Every Lady in Pine
 Bluff Should See.

Saturday afternoon GRAPHIC re- porter had the pleasure of viewing the largest and most superb colIec- tion of modern and ancient needle work and hand-painting ever seen in this city, or, for that matter, in the State. This exhibit was at the home of Mr. and Mrs. ". H. Parker, on Lakeside, and the articles on ex- hibition were secured through the Instruments tality of the Baptist ladies, who by means of small fee charged for viewing the exhibit, desire to raise a fund for the benefit of their church.
 There are are over three hundred articles on exhibition, and every article, except those in what is known as Class g. or Antiquities, is the handiwork of lady of this city.
 The exhibits are divided into five classes, and the ladies conducting the same have offered a handsome prize for the best piece of work in each class. Every article is num- bered, and the name of the maker is unknown. The prizes are to be awarded by baliot-every person visiting the exhibition being entitled to one vote for an article in each class.
 Class 1 consists of hand painted china, and our reporter is at loss for words to describe the many beau tiful things contained in it. There were all kinds of unique china novel ties, and the painting was superb, which testifes to the fact that our town has some superior artists ia this line.
 Class ? consists of modern hand embroidery. In this class can be seen many marvelousIy beautiful things, and handiwork of such skill, and designs so unique and lovely, that exclamations of wonder and de- Night rises to the lips of all behold CTS. On the finest of material were embroidered flowers and leaves so perfect and true to nature that the work is indeed marvellous.
 Class 3 consisted of drawn work, and in this class can be seen every variety of drawn work, from a dain- ty handkerchief to bed-spread, and of such beautiful patterns and de- signs as could only be conceived by the most cultivated minds and ex- ecuted by fairy fingers.
 Ladies, the world over, admire laees. The love for this commodity seems to be born in the sex, and more cultivated the mind of woman becomes, the greater is her love for rare and beautiful faces. Class , was the lace department of the ex- hioit, and in it were specimens of almost priceless value, of such gossamer fneness that it would seem impossible for human hand to make 1t. The display in this line is un- doubtedly the handsomest ever seen h the State. One piece, in particu- lar, creates admiration. It is an embroidered lace bridal veil, made and worn by a lady of this city over half century ago.
 Class , consisted of antiquities, many of them made by ladies of this wy over balf century ago, while tuners were gathered from various
