The Path For the Business Girl.


 Ut is so easy when you are young and pretty and long for the good things of life to drift into a flower covered path that leads-where!" writes Ruth Ash more, on "The Business Girl and Her Employer, ' in The Ladies Home Jour- nal. "Therefore you must learn, you brave, busy girls, to look at life as it is, to see it truthfully and to realize where the flower covered path will lead you and in what it will end. The other path may seem harder to walk on, it may offer few attractions, but if you look closely at it you will find that along the sides there are little blossoms that do not fade quickly like tho more brilliant exotic ones-blossoms that bring happiness into life There are the blossoms of self respect, of duty done, of knowledge gained, of honesty, and, best of all, there is that never fading flower of true womanliness. Which path are you going to take? You cannot af- ford to hesitate, and there is no middle road. Sometimes you may have walked little way in that path of folly and then turned back. If you have done this, give never oeasing thanks for your sal vation. But think it all out and take the right path at first, the path that ends in love and happiness here and hereafter 1

Our Women Teachers.

Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer, in a brilliant talk at the Congregational clut dinner in Brooklyn, told of the opinion about us expressed last summer by a Berlin college professor "I will give you 25 years to last, he said, and when Mrs. Palmer begged him for a lit tie additional time he consented to name 50 years, but was sure the republic would cease to exist long before then. His reasons were convincing to himself. {" You have, he said, "uniyersal sui frage" (by which, of course, ho meant universal among mem. s9The great ma jority of young men who come to be your masters are turned out into the world with only a grammar school edu. cation, and that education, 7" he finish ed, making his climax indescribably scornful, lis got almost entirely from women teachers " Mrs. Palmer took the incident as text for a graceful and elo. quent little discourse on these same women teachers.

GarterS In PIaids.

Garters have come out in Roman stripes and plaids like everything else The new garter buckle is a four leaf clover under q crystal like those which both men and women have been wearing for watch charms and ehatelaines.
 Tho sentiment against round garters is growing stronger as the athletic in- terest spreads. It is simply impossible to endure the stoppage of circulation when one is taking violent exercise. Hence the up and down style grows in favor. Folks who have buckles intended for the round style can put them on the strap just above the fork of the garter.
 A striped pair of this kind has a rosette of RomaL stripe ribbon where the garter forks, and tho straps which form the fork arc also made of ribbon. A four leaf clover gold bucklo is set on above the rosette, and the clasps which fasten to the stocking arc also of gold. The same style may hs had with silver buckles and clasps for &3 50.

.cRGT PIANO,

It is a @ell-known fact that no pianos have stood the hard South ern climate as well as the Everett, but the new improved Everett of 1897 has surpassed all pianos, in artistic tone, touch and beautiful cases: they have created a sensation in the musical world, and by investi- gating you will find that they are absolutely the highest grade of pianos now on the market. I am determined to have the piano trade of Arkansas. I have dropped prices, and will sell you a nice upright piano from $140 up, and the high grade Everett for $50 less than factory re- tail prices. J. c. WoMBLE.
 Some of these pianos are on exhi- bition at MitchelPs on Main street. You are cordially invited to call and inspect them. 2-6 q & " lmo.

Is the Battleship a Failure,
tNew Orleans states,)

tNeW Orleans StateS)
 In an address delivered in Prince ton, N. J., on Washington's Birth day, Capt. Mahan, of the United States navy, took oceas ion to defend the modern battleship, which has been likened by one prominent naval officer to trembling y.ol..si ,..s..io. aud in the on{442.il9gsa of Admiral Jouett ii}is i}i a failure as a fighting machine. Capt. Mahan declared that the greatest precautoins were taken on these ships against accident, and he even went so far as to say that any man who crosses the ocean in a passenger steamer undertakes In a week greater risk from collision than any seaman on ship of war does from explosion in the course of a year He told his hear CTS that the disposition shown in many quarters to condemn the battleship as a fighting machine was frightful mistake e, and itweuld not do to conclude that because a torpedo boat could sink battleship that it could do so readily at any time. He argued that the battle ship is by no means at the mercy of tke torpedo boat, and in summing up his estimate of these big war en- zines, he said:
 Ut is the product of a gradual evolution directed by experience and controlled in it's development by the best thought of many ex- perts, constructors and seamen, all in constant communication at all times with the best thoughts of the naval world throughout the civilized world. In short, l think I may say without necessary offense that the disposition to condemn the battle ship off hand as a fighting machine. whether the assumption be that the Maine perished from internal causes or rom external, can proceed only from ignorance of the facts of bat tleship construction in general and consequent mistaken differences as to the results of future naval bat ties.
 A great many of the brightest of hcers in the navy, however, enter tain a less favorable opinion of the battleships, add they do not hesi- tate to say that it is merely ques- tion of time when the construction of them will be abandoned by this aud other governments for ships of the armored cruiser type, possessing greats speed and which can be handled quickly in action, something which can not be done with the battleship,

THE Jonesboro Sun thus correctly states the position of the central committee of this county:
 In Jefferson county. the central committee decided to hold the coun- ty and State primaries on the date recommended by the State central committee, May 7th. The matter was left entirely to the country members of the committee on the theory that the people in the towns could vote as well on one day as an- other. The country members thought that to hold them on the same day with county primaries would give the country people a much better voice in selecting our State officers.

Trimmed and Trained skirts.

The fact is we'll established now that long trailing skirts are to be worn with house gowns. By house gowns are meant evening gowns, reception gowns or any gowns suited for house wear. As yet we have not gone back to long skirts for street wear, although even walking gowns have the skirts long enough to require holding up in the street. Many of the long skirts are extremely graceful There is one style which is made with very little goring, fitting quite sheath like, with tho fullness laid in small plaits, but cut to flare out at tho end of the train. h soft silks, satins, poplins and cashmeres this is very attractive, for the lines are so graceful. The plain look is broken by bands of trimming either down the seams or around the foot or else with patterns of embroidery and cut work put on tho front breadth There is evidently an intention of re- storing drapery, for some very smart skirts have the front and side breadths long enough to allow of draping just a little back of the hip and showing a glimpse of an underpettieoat of differ- ent material. This is q becoming style of skirt and looks especially well when the back breadths arc long enough to train. Harper s Bazar

The Fashionable Ficnre.

From the French capital come these sprightly notes: The fashionable figure may be described in negatiYes-no shoulders, no chest, no hips and no waist to speak of. The waist is just the depth of band of ribbon; the fashion able jacket bulges over it all round. I expect shortly to hear that there will be no understandings to mention, the shoes being made to squeeze the feet to noth- ing.
 Where, you ask. is oaa1tv to be found? ! sgqPp0so in the hat and hair. ln6 race is so much in the shade of the advancing hat that one can hardly see it. The gloves are also most coquettish.
 The stage has ceased to inspire the oouturiere. Whether owing to the new goldfelds in so many parts of the world or the pressure in Paris of so many in- dpstrial kings, the cocotte has regain ed the place she filled under the second empire. As she appears ill the Bois, so will rank and fashion soon appear in Hyde park, in Central park and in the island of St. Petersburg"
