Some English fellow, purporting tC
make a study of the fair sex, declares
one can judge of girl by the music
she plays. Therein are some matri
monial pointers for the summer girl
as well as the summer man. The En-
glishman says: "There are worse
ways OF choosing a wife than by the
music she plays. II "a girls manifests
a predilection for Strauss, she is friv-
olous; for Beethoven, she is unpracti-
cal; for Liszt, she is too ambitious;
for Verdi, she is sentimental; for Of
fenbach, she is giddy; for Gounod, she
is lackadaisical; for Mozart, she is
prudish; for Wagner, she is idiotic.
The girl who hammers away at "The
Malden's prayer and 'Silvery Waves
may be depended upon as good cook
and healthful, and If she includes the
Battle Of Prague you, ought to know
that she has been strictly nurtured.
But, last Of all, pin thou thy faith
upon the calico dress Of the girl who
can play Home, Sweet Home"

No RIGHT TO COMPLAIN.-The man
who beasts that he takes no interest
In politics thereby admits that he is
not a good citizen. 1t is the duty OF
every citizen to take an interest In
politics, not as ofiice-seeker, but as an
Intelligent and conscientious student
of issues which involve the policy and
welfare Of the country. The man who
has nothing to do with politics has no
right TO complain II the government
Is not wisely conducted. II there are
faults Of legislation and administra-
tion he is partly to blame for them.

Killed by Accident

Mrs. Thomas B. Martin, wife OF
Chancellor Martin, of Little Rock,
was killed by a runaway horse last
night at Little Rock. The accident
was an appalling one, and the grief
stricken husband and children are
PROSTATE at this misfortune.
Itseems that the Chancellor and
his wife were out for drive, when
the horse ran away, throwing Judge
Martin out. The horse kept on, and
making quick turn threw Mrs
Martin out and against telephone
post, fracturing her skull, from
which she died in fifteen minutes.
The entire city of Little Rock is
cast down over this sad accident,
which caused the death of so estlm'
able lady.

There is a constant demand for
gasoline stoves. Why? Because
the new gasoline stoves work per
fectly, keep the kithen cool and
pleasant, and do away with the
bother of having wood and kindling
around, But the chief reason is
on account of the cheapness OF
gasoline, as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes.
BY actual test it has been found
that four gallons of gasoline will &c
as far as 1000 feet of gas. Com
pare the cost and you will see the

enacted. Judge Jordan, who wrote
the decision, says; ut is an Old and

the life of trade, and whatever act
destroys competition or even relaXe'
it upon the part of those who sus'
tain relations to the public is re-
garded by the law as injurious tC

deemed to be unlawful on the

time and learned that he was IRON

escape, thinking he was the only
good thing" perhaps, that ever
drifted into the above county and
getting out so easily. In this we
made a mistake, and now pull OF
our hat to Pike, and beg pardon, for
we see from the Arkansas Gazette
where one W. S. Johnson, who was
born in Pike county, by his own et-
forts made enough money to school
himself at home, aud then made
enough money to travel in Europe
a year, studying the manners OF the
people, and finishing up with a
three years schooling at Yale col
lege, graduating with high honors,
and having the degree of Ph. D.
conferred upon himself This shows
that it is not the locality in which a
man is born that makes him, but
natural desire to become somebody,
and work to this end, Mr.. j. M.

entitled to all the honors bestowed
upon him, and more too. We say,
