Umbrellas Ia Battle

Some Wiyea Are Qifferant.

Most men," said the man of expert ence, think 1t must be awfully nice te have wife who takes things as cool V as Dave Potters wife takes them. but others, more discrimina ting, prefer a good honest row to her style of quiet cynicism. The way she behaved the other day when she found letter in Dave's pocket from 6 girl in Brook!vn b an example of her method.
 "'I don't see,' wrote this girl how on earth can ever live without you
 "Dave's wife read that gush and a lot more just like it without ever turn Ing a hair.
 "'Well,' she said quietly. that gir; E. a fool. If she knew you as we'll as l do she would be wondering how or earth she could ever live with you

George Peabody. the philanthropist, and John Bright often went to Ireland together to fish. One day they went couple of miles up the shannon be- tween Castleconnell and Killaloe They had engaged the services of tive boatmen, and as Bright and Pea bof., were keen anglers they made a long day of it. On returning In the evening Bright, noticing a policeman on tue river bank. asked what sum the boat men were entitled to for their time The constable said anything iron, seven and sixpence to 10 shillings Bright turned to his companion, say

Chop Suey Best of All.

'1 have tried them all in their m. tive haunts, and like them" said the traveller, according to the Baltimorv Sun.
 '"Tried whatT' asked the bystander. "RailroadsT'
 "No: national dishes," answered the traveller. "The hot tamale of the Mea ican, the goulash of the Hungarian, the chop suey of the Chink, are all known to me and many others.
 "The best of them all is chop euey The hot tamale is too hot and has very little nourishment to 1t, and goulash is too heavy. 1t tastes pretty good. but 1. Is not a food to recommend to a mau with weak stomach. Chop suey, how ever, is appetlzing, easily digested and very nourishlng. It Is the great contrl button of the orient to the occident in my opinion. It is made of rice sprout. cd beans, celery and chickens blood. all mixed together in the form of sour and nicely seasoned"

Tho AxiaI Rotation of Venus.

For over two centuries 1t was gener ally accepted that, like the earth, the planet Venus rotated on It's axis in ( little less than twenty-four hours. hul since Schiaparelli after long and care ful observation of the planet suggcs! cd that the actual rotation period was between six and nine months astron omers have devoted much attention tt this matter. In the Observatory Mir Denning sums up the available evi dence on the point and can only con clude that this particular problem still dedes solution. Life on Venus would b. very different from life on the earth should the planets avial rotation be as Schiaparelll asserted. identical with the period of its revolution round the sun, as in that case the same hemi sphere would always be turned to the sun and enjoy perpetual day, while the opposite hemisphere would be doomed to eternal night.

HAVE JUST INSTALLED
ONE OF THE NEW 2Oth CENTURY MANGLES-IN THE LINE OF
 IMPROVING HEALTH,

It is we'll known fact that it re- quires a boiling heat to kill all germs. 1t is also known that you cannot get your clothes boiled when having them done by your WasherWoman, as nine out of every ten wash your clothes with the same water and never boil them-and at the most they only use two waters, one to wash with and then to blue them. Now, as the city has been having lot of fever and oth- CT sickness, we think you can over- come some of it by having your work sent to a steam laundry. In the first place, we boil thom with steam; in the second place, W" i've them eight dif- ferent waters @oming the soapy smell you haT" s~cm washerwomen; in the third l'Hce, if a garment is missing you ave recourse, while in nine cases on f ten if anything is short from 'he washerWoman they say nothins for fear of losing her; fourth, prices are such that it is as cheap to have them done by us; sixth, if it rains it is the same, you get your washing; seventh, you don't have to worry about your washwoman not be- ing after your linen; eighth, we are prepared with our new machines to turn out 50,000 pieces a day, and, as we have gone to this expense, we feel that the people of Pine Bluff will give us a trial, and f your work is not satisfactory it cos,s you nothing.
 Our motto: We guarantee you clean, white, beautiful linen. The American-Excelsior Laundry Co., ex- cells all others, barring none. As we lead. others follow.
