SOME POINTS ABOUT NEEDLES.
The Evolved Product of Centuries ol
 Invention.

The point of a needle Is very i'm. strument, and there are many points about needles calculated to interest the general public. The daily con- sumption of needles all over the world Is something like 100000. while every year the women of the United States break, lose and use some 30o,- GOO, 900 of those tiny tools. Few peo- rle while threading needle have ever given a thought to the various processes through which the wire must pass before 1t comes out . needle. Yet the manufacture of needles includes some 21 different processes from cutting the wire and Threading the double needles by the eyes to separating the two needles on the one length of wire, heading. hard ening in oil. cleaning out the sides of the eye. pointsetting, and final pol ishing. For wrapping purple paper Is used, since it prevents rusting. Thero are many sorts of needles, for sur geons'. cooks, glovemakers'. weavers', sailmakerS', broommakers'. milliners' and dressmakers' use. The needle Is the evolved product of centuries of invention. In its primitive form it was made of bone, ivory, or wood. Point by point its manufacture has improved. until this little but not in- significant instrument Is now one of the highly-fnished products of twen- tieth century machinery and skill Zion's Herald.

| State Board of Education was select ed and commissioners appointed to every county, thus beginning the great educational work of the state. The Real Estate and State Banks were again discussed, and the Hoford bond transaction was born, which after ward gave the state much trouble. It was during this session that the dispute first arose as 10 the correct pronunciation of the states name. Senator Sevier called il ArkansaW. Senator Ashley caled it Arkansas. The president of the Senate called il both ways recognizing the one as the gentleman from Ar-kansaw." the other the "gentlman from Arkan sas." This was the beginning of a fight for pronunciation which was at last set tied by the legislature, the present pronunciation being agreed upon.

 The legislature of 1850 was the scene of many heated discussions as t,l- Ir Federal government. The admission of California az a free state was the subject of many a warlil<e speech, and the fighting spirit began to show itself

 Legislative sessions during the early sixties were often scenes of great ex- citement. Tn 1861 d convention was held in two sessions. At the first, where were representatives from seventy six counties, the sentiment of the convention was In favor of re- maining in the Union. But at the sec ond session conditions had so changed that the convention of seventy mem bers voted SiXty-nine to one for the ordinance of secession. and Governor Rector in reply to the call of Secre. tary Cameron for troops to aid in putting down the rebellion, said, In answer to your demand for troops from Arkansas to ~ubiugate the Southern States, have to say that none will be furnished The demand is only adding insult ts injury" Then came the dark days of war, when the peaceful work of years was undone and the progress made by the new state was laid waste.
 In lS64, delegates met at the State House and rem0deled the constitu- ton which was ratified by the people by an overwhelming majority. Repre-. sentatives were elected and in April the legislature once more assembled and was recognized by the govern. ment.
