A Great Book.

There is in Utica an old man of I'M
usual intelligence who is known to
have graduated from no college, and yet
whose perfect English, including syn
tax, photography and pronunciation
would stamp him as an educated man
in any company. One night this old
man was seated in the rooms of the
Cogburn club, when he consented to be
interviewed as follows:
From whom did you get the founda-
ton of your education?"
"From Webster"
Daniel Webster?p
"No, but Noah Webster, through his
spelling book. When was IL, could
spell every word in that book correctly
l had learned all the reading lessons it
contains, including that one about the
old man who found some rude boys in
his fruit trees one day, and who, after
trying kind words and grass, finally
pelted them with stones, until the
young scapegraces were glad to come
down and beg the old mans pardon"
"Websters spelling book must have
been wonderfully popular.
Eyes. y And genial smile lighted
up the ancient face. "There were more
copies of it sold than of any, other work
ever written in America. Twenty four
millions is the number up to 1S47, and
that had increased to SO, O00, 900 in
1860, since which time have seen no
account of its sale. Yes, owe my ed
ucation to the spelling book. Utica

Small School.

A bright answer is put down to the
credit of DR.. Fitchett, brother of the ed
itor of the Australian Review of Re-
views. He was member of colonial
parliament, wherein one day certain
eccentric and elderly member named
Taylor insisted ON making a speech on
education. The grafton consisted of a
hyperbolical eulogy of the board of
schools in Mr.. Taylor's constituency.
DR.. Fitchett INTERCEPTED some jocose ex-
preston of doubt. "Why, sir, =" said the
irate Taylor, turning upon him, sat
this very moment have a school in my
eye"- 'No, only one pupil, Mr.. Tay.

The Letter ID.

The Semitic people called D Daleth,
door or opening, whence the Greek
delta. To US in its present form it is
not much like door, as we know, but
if the orientals lived in tents shaped
like the letter B it is not wonderful
they should have doors the shape of a
d. Our form of the letter is greatly
changed from the ancient D, but q
glance at the Greek delta, which is a
right angle triangle, shows it identical
in shape with the triangular tent door
closed by flaps of canvas, and when one
of these was drawn back shape was
represented which must have been ia.
miliar to all orientals.

Iodine rs a Detective.

Another use has been found for the
vapor of iodine. This is the discovery Of
alterations in manuscripts. Professor
Bruylats of Louvain, the discoverer Of
the process, noticed that when sheet
of paper which had been sized and fin
ished was moistened and, after being
thoroughly dried, exposed to the vapor
of iodine the part which had been
moistened became violet, while the un-
moistened portion became brownish yell
low.
1t appears that when a manuscript
has been altered both the nature and
extent of the alteration can be deter
mined by the use of iodine vapor. Those
parts which have been rubbed become
brownish on exposure, and when the
rubbed part is subsequently moistened
it becomes blue, the depth Of the color
depending on the length of time that
the exposure had been allowed to pro.
coed.
The process is believed to be due en-.
tirely to the we'll known fact that when
iodine is put on starch the starch be-
comes blue, and the difference in the
tint is dependent ON the fact that por-
ton of the starch which is contained in
the size has been removed in the process
of the alteration of the manuscript
Oddly enough the same process will
reveal the extent of pencil marks which
have been erased by rubbing. The iodine
vapor brings out the lines which have
been traced by the pencil point disturb
ing the surface of paper, even though
the rubbing has been so carefully done
that it has not removed any of the sur
face of the paper itself. -Pearson's

$1,000 LICENSES.

Our Police Jury at it's last ses.
sion fixed the licenses for the sale
of whiSkey, ETC., at $4,000 per an.
mum, as will be seen by the pro-
ceedings elsewhere in this issue.
We presume that some of the
members voted for this as a pro.
hibition measure, without looking
at it from a monopoly standspoint.
Where there are now 15 or 20
saloons in the parish making as
many men living, and no man a
fortune, under the new regime there
will always be one saloon here in
Natchitoches to supply all the
whiskey that all the saloons now
supply, and having no competition,
the prices and profits will be grad
ed to suit the capitalists who alone
will be able to go into it.
This will make the profits i'm
mense for the one saloon which can
then exist, where it is only a liv-
ing for the many that now exist.
In other words, it will be protita-
BILE for the liquor traffic and the
few MEN who can 60 into it then,
while now it is Improbable to the
liquor business and advantageous
to the greater numbor of people
who are employed and who use it.
So the men who voted for this
measure can hardly be classed as
pOhibltiOliStS, since it does not
prohibit, and is more favorable to
whiskey than before, and yet they
have voted against the interests of
the great number of whiskey sell
lerS and whiSkey drinkers,
This is another one of those de-
lectable reforms made possible by
that new constitution which promi-
nent men from our town gave us.

visor was child's play compared
with what the State superintend-
ent will attempt TO do under this
bill. But as we have repeatedly
said, the people of New York
elected .fammany to rule over
them, and if they now choose to
try a force bill as an antidote it is
their affair.
The above is a very mild affair,
"a decent white mans chance, COM
pared to the miserable returning

Lcuisiana. The Democrats Of New
York State, il they have any con-
sistency or sclf-respect about them,
are forever estopped from decry-
ing this law as long as their fellow
partisans hold such wretched car
nival with the right of suffrage in
all the Southern States.
They who live by the sword shall
