INSECT MORAL QUALITIES.
Ants and Bees Display an ExtraOr-
binary Sense of Duty.


There are insects, mostly parasitic,
which, like some men, only desire to
eat and drink, but among the social
insects, such as ants and bees, there
is a high development of moral quail
ties, to which Haeckel goes the length
of applying the term soul life" to dis
tlnguish them from mere instinct.
Thus patriotism is obviously / virtue
among ants, for if an ant hill II dis
turbed the inmates never ATTEMPT to
escape from danger, but apply them
selves Immediately to rescue the lives
and property of the community as
whole. Respect for law and order is
also very strongly marked in some
communities of ants, which include
soldiers and workers, peasants and ar
tisans, governors and slaves.
Bees have an extraordinary sense Of
duty. Huber noted relays of them sup
porting a fragment of comb which
threatened to fall without one single
bee fiinching or leaving its post until
relieved by another. Loyalty to the
queen is another distinct moral quail
ity

CARRYING MONEY.
The Wide Difference There IL In Men
In This Particular.

In This Particular.
Did you notice." said man to
friend with whom he was dining,
that young fellow at the next table
who just left? He reminded me of the
difference there is in people when it
comes to carrying money. That youth
had roll Of bills as big as his arm,
and he wanted everybody to see them,
although he made believe to hide them.
They We're mostly ones and tives. His
check was 40 cents, but he paid with
u five. Then when he ordered cigar
out came the accumulation of a life
time again, and he handed the waiter
another five If he has his shoes shined
he'll break five dollar bill and keep Oh
until he has nothing but ones and
twos. He likes to give folks the i'm
preston that his capital is enormous,
although it isn't, judging from his ap-
pearance. Then there's the man who
always has $500 or 5000 in his pocket,
but it's III an inside pocket and it's in
big denominatiOns-tiftie and hun
dreds. He seldom shows any real
money. He has small bills handy for
ordinary use, but he doesn't mean to be
caught. If there's an argument with
u bet in it he can put up on the spot.
And Il good many men don't carry
enough money to scrape through the
day. You'll find millionaires who have
to turn themselves inside out to settle
for car fare. Some lug what l call
rheumatism money in every pocket. It's
so twisted and deformed and out of
shape that you can't count it unless
you smooth it over with a hot fiatiron.
Others fold their money neatly. There
are all kinds, but as rule the chap
who pulls out bloated collection of dol
lar bills is carrying every penny he has
in the world and good deal more than
he'll have many hours unless he's care
full. "-Providence Journal.

In a composition upon Education"
a boy once wrote, Education is going

you are a boy you don't have flowers;

CAPTURING A HUSBAND.
A Bold and Dashing Lady Was the
Mother of Robert Bruce.

Mother of Robert Bruce.
Many marriage suggests to an ir-
reverent curiosity the question, Did
the woman propose it?' But one sell
dom finds actual historic proof that she
did. A recent delightful book on Scot
land has an interesting and apparently
authentic story of case where the wo-
man not only took the initiative, but
took it in a high handed fashion.
The young Countess of Carrick was
left Il widow by the death of her hus-
band while on one of the crusades.
The king became her guardian, and she
had good reason to fear that he would
force upon her marriage of policy.
She was a famous horsewoman and
often rode for day through her own
forest. attended only by small mount
ed guard. One day she encountered a
young man to whom she was at once
much attracted. She asked him to re-
turn with her to her castle, but he had
some gallant adventure already in
hand and ungraciously declined the in
vitation.
~ a Noiu lloill liCi hCl
made him q prisoner and bore him off
to Turnberry castle.
Two weeks Imprisonment brought
him to a proper sense of the charms of
his fair hostess, and knight and lady
were welded with the reluctant con-
sent Of the king.
The son of this romantic marriage
patriotism and brave deeds are well
fitted to justify his mothers coura-
geous audacity.

=1)AVIS' Evil INFLUENCE.

Everybody who has only casually
observed the trend of affairs in Ark
ansas has realized for sCme time that
the mere fact that jeff Davis is gov
erpor of the state has had tendency
TO retard the states Development and
The Graphic has called attention to
this fact several times. What Ark
ansas needs more than anything else
is money to develop its resources, and
outside capital must be had. In the
east there is money congestion and
millions Of it seeking investment in
THE south, as the south is now the
most profitable field for investment.
The Graphic has called attention to
the fact that eastern money is coming
south, and has endeavored to- awaken
interest in Pine Bluff that would re-
suit in successfully inviting the in
yestment of some of this money in
this city. 1t has tried to set move
ment on foot that would bring an
eastern cotton mill here, though it has
received small encouragement. The
Graphic can bear with lack of en-
enlargement with the hope that at
some day in the near future the bus
mess people CT Pine Bluff would wake
up to the opportunities presented and
make move to profit thereby. The
awakening has come with the organ
izatiOn Of the board of trade, and as it
is composed of the best business men
in the city who are gCing to make the
right start to do something, good re-
suits are going to be accomplished.
The most serious stumbling block
would be the election If Jeff Davis to
a third term as governor, as may be
seen from the following Fort Smith
news item. which was printed in the
Graphic Thursday, and which bears
out the contention the Graphic has
all along made that with such a man
as Davis for governor retards the de-
velCpment of the state:
Fort Smith, Ark March 10.-Some
months ago Senator George Sengel of
this city went East and made arrange
ments with capitalists there t., invest
100000 in a cotton mill here, con-
ditioned upon Fort Smith parties in
] vesting 100000. He secured pledges
for the required amount and week
ago notified the Eastern capitalists
to that effect. Today he received
letter from one of them calling every
thing off until after the state primar-
les, the writer stating that those who
had been interested in the project
would not make any investments in
Arkansas for the next two years if
Davis was renominated for governor
/ 1t is predicted that tie receipt of thi :;
4 letter will prevent Sebastian county
from declaring for Davis, something
] which, up to this date, has been more
4 than probable"
1t is the duty CT every good citizen
who has the interest Of the state at
heart to vote against Davis.
