A PROGRESSIVE COURT.

The county levying court which
has just closed its sessions here will
ever be remembered as one of the
most progressive levying bodies the
county has ever had.
The appropriate tion or free bridge
is a step which will go far toward
creating a most prosperous era in
Jefferson county, provided it secures
a new railroad that would let the
Rock Island into Pine Bluff, and that
promise has been made by representa-
tive citizens who say they are in a
position to make their pledge good.
With Rock Island road to Pine Bluff
from the north will open up new
trade to Pine Bluff that means hun
dreds of thousands of dollars for this
city The people on the north side of
the river will have free access to the
city, thing very much desired by
everybody on the north side. The
matter could not have been more ad-
mirably arranged; for it is railroad
If it is a bridge, and no railroad no
bridge.
Another important step was that
made looking toward county hos
pital 1t can and no doubt will be
utilized as an almshouse, where the
county paupers may be properly tax
en- care of.
The appropriation of $1,000 for the
courthouse was a wise one, and it is
to be hoped that this appropriation
will produce results. Two years ago
$4,000 was appropriated for a court
house, hut it resulted in nothing be-
ing done. The annex to the court
house is badly needed, and as pro-
vision is made for it, there should be
no unnecessary delay in the building
of the annex and the repair of the
county seat building.

eral years I had attacks of itching
temorrhoids and had almost given up
hope of ever stumbling across prep

tne of our daily papers induced me to
&C fer a box of Doan's Ointment. An
application or two gave me relief, and
a continuation of tine treatment abso-

Thermometers ORIGIN.

According to Sir Samuel Wilkes,
Fahreheit constructed his thermom-
eter from one made many years be-
fore by Sir Isaac Newton. ''1n the
transactions of the Royal Society of
1901 will be found the paper written
by Sir Isaac Newton, who was at that
time secretary to the society,"" says
Sir Samuel "He invented the instru-
ment for measuring the degre of heat
in fluids by taking tube and filling
it with linseed oil. On this he mark
ed the freezing point as zero by put
ting the tube in ice, and in the same
way he marked the point when placed
in boiling water. The very awkward
scale which We now use is evidently
that of Newton; for, the decimal sys-
tenn not being then in use, he took
the number of twelve to denote the
heat of the body. This he found, and
made it the staring point OF his
scale both upward and downward. 1t
was some time after this that fer
conveniences sake, the degrees were
divided in two, and thus the body
heat was twenty-four above zero and
the boiling point fifty-three. When,
many years afterwards. Fahrenheit
made his instrument and used mer-
curry instead of linseed Gil, which was
far more convenient: he again divid-
ed these degrees into -four; so if the
number be multiplied accordingly, We
have 212 for the boiling point and
ninety-six fer the body heat. Fab
renheit, finding that he could get a
lower temperature than freezing,
made this point zero, which brought
the numer eight of Newton's to thirty.
two of Fair nheit. In this way the
thermc meter was constructed. AWk-
ward as the scale is, yet it is histori-
cally interesting as having been made
by our own great philosopher AID
formed on the basis of the heat Of
the human body."-Exchange.

BEGcAPS OF THE WORLD.
Wherever there are men there are

Wherever there are men there are
peggars. Every nation has it's nlendi-
cants, and, although some people hold
them to scorn, there are others who
venerate them and recognize their
business as legitimate.
Strangely, the greatest nation of
beggars in the world adjoins that
which has, perhaps, the smallest, Or
one of the smallest, percentages Of
beggars-and these countries are
Italy and Switzerland.
That beggary is a result of indol-
ence is shown by the fact that the peo-
pie of every warm climate are over
run with. mendicants. Egypt India,
and Italy are the worst examples.
Among civilized nations beggary has
taken on form of criminality. The
professional beggar begs, not for want
or privation. He has reduced his
whines for help to a fine art which
yields riches in many cases
Werever charity and pity exist there
will be found beggary. The people
with whom the fight for existence is
bitter and productive of celfishness
have few who beg, while wealth and
luxury breed hordes of parasites who
subsist upon the kindness of those
who have to give.
The most picturesque beggar in the
world, perhaps, holds place of power
and big "pull' at Loong Wah, in
China. Covered from head to foot
with rags, this man controls the beg
gar industry of province and has
scores of others working for him.
Blindness draws more pity than
anything else, annd most of the ber-
gars of Cuba and Porto Rico eitht
are blind or feign blindness.
The Egyptian beggar often is pa'
riarch, possessed of money, grown o) !
and distinguished in plying his trade
Beggary in Egypt is the greatest
trade, especially along the Nile, where
tourists frequently are forced to use
whips or clubs, or hire guides to use
them, to drive away the swarms OF
mendicants, who even swim out to
the boats to beg.
Beggary in Siam has drawn the at
tention of artists to the picturesque
features. These travellers are as
roaming in instinct as American
tramps and wander all over the
country, being admitted as guests to
almost any household.

A ST. PETERSBURG sLUM.

In St. Petersburg there is motor
ious slum called Dom ViaZemsky. 1t
consists Of five two-storied buildings
enclosed in lot about the size OF
a baseball diamond. On a cold win
ter's night in 1896, when l first visit
ed the place as tramp, the five build
ings sheltered over $4,000 men, wo-
men and children. At that time the
rolice said that the buildings were
soon to be torn down; they were To-
Gated hardly stones throw from the

Prospect They are still standing,
and workingmen, drivers, peddlers,
peasants, runawy convicts, prostitutes
and thieves continue to make them
their home The different sleeping
apartments are rented by the week
or month to investors who sublet the
beds and "spots" on the floor to the
lcdgers for ten and twenty copecks
a night. The sexes are jumbled togeth-
er with, no questions asked and no
answers given. The place is saturat-
ed with disease, and the majority of
its patrons have some physical COM
rlaint. By some it is called 'the Crys-
tai Palace" because practically all
of the window panes have been brok-
en-. 1t is also known as "the Monas-

crafty pickpccket. the professional

ment would permit in the heart of

all over the surface, singly and in
irregular groups. Most of them are
shaped more or less like our terres-
trial volcanoes, and they probably
were volcanoes ages ago, before the

If you happen to land on a part
of the moon where it is early morn
ing you will have plenty of time for
explorations before night comes on.
The sun rises and sets as it does on
the earth, but the time between sun
rise and sunset is nearly fifteen of

mar night our earth will act like the
moon, and will light up that part of
the moons surface which is turned
toward it. Only there will be this
curious difference: it will not rise
