About Star Points on Coins.

Few people, with the exception of tails, but it is a rather interesting fact to note that on one side of some of our coins the stars have five points, as upon the flag, while on the other side the stars have six," an official of the Washington mint recently re- marked.
 Tn English heraldry," he contin- ued, "a correct star had six or more points-usually six. When designs for the first American coins were made the heraldic usage was followed and the stars given six points. The flag of the nation was made up very largely from the coat of arms of the Washington family, in which for some reason, the stars have but five points.
 On the obverse of our present quarter and half dollar the stars. 13 i'll number, are six pointed, while or the reverse they are five pointed. This difference is due to the fact that the reverse of these coins is simply copy of the great seal of the United States, except that the clouds are omitted. On the great seal and on the seal of the president the stars are five pointed, while the seal of the house of representatives shows six pointed stars"

Fined For Smoking.

Carl Stevenson, who was a witness recently in the United States Circuit Court at Little Rock in the suit of John Henderson against Silar Stev- enson and Ed Griffith. was fined $50 and costs for contempt of court.

Judge Trieber called Stevenson to the bench and fined him $50 and costs, and ord cred him committed to jail until he paid. He was committed. He was later released on an order signed by the United States marshal, which stated that the fine and costs had been paid

ERRAT[C OLD RIVER MISSOURI HAS RECORD FOR DO
 ING QUEER THINGS. Owners of Property Along Its Banks Have No Excuse for Suffering
 from Lack of Excitement
 Case in Point.

There are rivers of all lengths and sizes and all degrees of wetness. There are river with all sorts of pc culiarities and with widely varying claims to fame. But there is only one river with personality, habits, dis sipations, a sense of humor and womans caprice; a river that goes travelling sidewise, that interferes in politics, rearranges geography and dabbles in real estate; a river that plays hide and seek with you to-day and tomorrow follows you around like pet dog with a dynamite crack CT tied to it's tail That river is the Missouri, says a writer in the Amer. ican Magazine.
 This thing happened in Kansas City not many years ago: A party of men owned strip of land along the Mis- souri river bank. It was not hand some land, but it was valuable for fac tory purposes, They were offered portly prices for it, but held on.
 One day they noticed that the strip was getting emaciated. They held hurried diagnosis with a surveyors tape and found that half of it had been washed away. The next year half of the remainder had gone.
 The men wanted to sell then, but the market seemed remarkably slug. gish. The next year the river ate so vigorously that only a tiny strip about aa wide as piece of baby ribbon was left. The men were much depressed
 Suddenly the land began to in- crease. The Missouri had chosen the late manufacturing site for a place to deposit fine 160-acre farm upon which it had foreclosed up the river Inside of six months that strip of land contained 200 acres. The men were jubilant, but still they would not sell
 They wanted another 100 acres, they said. They strolled along the bank each day and urged the river, in proprietary tones, to build faster Then the river changed it's mind once more and not only wiped out the extra 100 acres but the original 100 acres, every foot of it. The next year it built up 800 acres in the same spot, but they all belonged to the man who owned the ground behind the original plot. They have stayed there ever since-that is, up to last reports For high financing and property juggling the Missouri makes crooked lawyer look like child. I hate to think what it would do for a man if it had a per sonal friendship for him.

Strawberries in Demand.

Judsonia, always a good town, jumps to the center of the stage for a period each year, and she has just made her jump, for this is her usual season for making it. The strawber- ry trade has opened and within a short time this little city will be load ing from ten to twelve care per day. The town now swarms with buyers, who pay cash for the berries as soon as they are offered at the station. Three cars per day loaded and sold on the track is the record thus far, One car was recently sold for $4,300 and another for nearly $2,000.

Heavy Berry Shipment.

While the weather has been very unfavorable for ripening the straw berry crop in Crawford county, yet D cars have been shipped from Van Buren alone, although the heavy move meIt of the crop will not begin much before May l, about the usual time, that being shipped now being the result of the extreme warm weather during the month of March. Notwith- standing the many reports to the con trary, the berries in this county were not injured by the late frosts, and with favorable weather the crop will be as large as usual. The vines are heavily fruited and owing to the cool, cloudy weather no reports of rotting have been received The berries, on the other hand, are solid, up to the standard in size and color and are carrying even to the fartherest markets better than ever before, and with much less refrigeration

Campaign of Spraying Started.

Dudley Moulton of the United States Bureau of Entomology, and w. M. Scott of the Bureau of Plant Industry, are at Siioam Springs mak- ing arrangements for a systematic campaign of spraying fruit trees in northwest Arkansas, with the object of studying the habits of the coddling moth, which causes so much injury to apples. One or more crchar0.; in Benton county will be selected and the apple trees sprayed as a starter. The coddling moth will be closely studied, it's movements recorded, it's life history studied and everything pertaining to the insect closely noted to determine whether or not there is third brood. The experimentation will be watched with interest by all fruit growers in that section of the state.

Where She Lost Interest.

"Automobiling does tousle ones hair sol" said the beautiful young creature as they descended from the machine and started up the dark walk toward the house where they were to call.
 Tt does?' he inquired politely.
 Yes; it gives it the same effect as though one had been struggling to avoid being kissed" she gurgled.
 Indeed? I fancy you should carry a small hand mirror and some hairpins when you go automobiling," he sug- gested, moving right up the dark walk.
 Some way or other, by one of those unexplainable psychological impulses, at that very moment she began to real ize he was not the man she would se- lect as an affinity.-Judge.
