Beautiful Legend.

There is an old legend that runs in
this wise: At the creations dawn
an angel came down to earth and be-
fore returning looked around for some
thing to carry back to heaven. There
we're three things that attracted the
attention of he white-winged mess
'eDger a bouquet of sweet flowers that
had been gathered from one of the
earth's fair and blooming gardens,
the smile Of a baby that had been
playing with sunbeam, and moth
ers love. These three the angel
carried away, but when they reached
the pearly gates Of paradise the flow
ers had withered-the babys smile
had vanished. Only mothers love
remained the same, and being found
as pure and eternal as the. waters that
flowed by God 5 throne, all the angels
that ranged about exclaimed in uni
son: There Is nothing On earth
pure enough IVr heaven odt a mV1n-
er 5 love. This was a tribute con
tanning a sublime thought. And
through all the ages it has been hui
nsu experience tnat the angels reterr-
ed to in that fai-away legend, were
not over-extravagant in the message
that they passed out through the O.
pened windows of the many man

Wash CTuce.

An interesting letter was received
from an old Crittendcn county citi-
zen last week by his nephew and
name sake 6. W, Stone. The party
who wrote the letter was g. W.
Cruce, Of Clinton, Mo-, we'll known
to many Of our older citizens as
Wash Cruce who moved west nearly
half Of century ago, since which
he has spent much time in Mo, Kan,
and Texas, finally settling down at
Clinton, No., where he now resides
with his wife and two sons. How
careless people get about writing and
keeping up with their friends and
those they love is shown by Mr..
Cruces letter. In it he inquiries
about his sister Luey's health, she
having been dead four years and was
Caleb Stones wife and mother of
councilman G. W. Stone who received
the letter
He also asked about sister Jane
Wilson, not knowing she had passed
over the dark river twenty-five years
ago, and sister Mary Cole, who for
over forty years has been Mrs. Get
tings, and now lives at Kuttawa.
And about brother Presley, who
unknown to him had died thirtyfve
years ago, and about brother f. Well,
who has also been dead twenty-five
years or more. Two brothers,
James and Marion, live in Living
stou Go, between the rivers now and
with the one sister Mrs. Gettings, of
Kuttwa, comprise all the family Of
that generation now living.

Electric Power.

The hydraulic power now used in
Switzerland for runnig electric plants
is estimated at more than 225, 000
horse power, of which 40 per cent is
for electric lighting, IL
per cent, for traction, % per cent,
for electrolytic work, and "a per
cent for motors. Even with this
work done by water, the imports of
foreign coal amount to nearly 81, 600
600 annually. Continued increase
in electric plants is thus assured,
and a projected one in the Bernese
Oberland promises 40, 600 horse. pow
er, while others are expected to fol-
low to supply the $50 600 horse-pOw-
er needed by the railroads. A hy-
dro- electric plant on the Rhine near
Numpf is to have a 230-foot head of
water, with canal fifteen miles
long to lead the water from the dam
to the turbine station.

an ordinary egg. and day after day it
was the same size. At the end of the
week the circus man went TO the hens
master and said:
why have you deceived me? This
hen only lays ordinary eggs"
And the master did not know what
to say. He gathered up his cage with
the hen in it and went back home.
When he got there he picked up an
ak and chopped the hens head of.
