BEETLE AS A SCENT sAcHET
Insect of Borneo That Exhales Most
Powerful Perfume.

The beaux and bellies of Borneo do
not have to distil perfume for their
hair or handkerchiefs. They have
only to take a walk until they find a
mimosa In blossom. Clinging to the
flower-balls is found magnificent
beetle of brilliant emerald green sha-
ding to bright bronze on the wing
cases, and touched with gold on the
head. This living jewel emits pow
erful scent of altar of roses, pertaining
the air for many yards around it. A
number Of them placed in house will
fill 1t from top to bottom with delight
full fragrance. Young girls roll the
insect in a bit Of cotton cloth and
braid it in their black locks, and
young men suspend it around their
necks like an amulet or an Egyptian
scarab. The fragrance gradually
grows fainter as the beetle loses it's
vitality, and dies with it.
The beetle lives in captivity only a
few hours, and as the scent expires
with 1t, no way has SO far been found
to extract or preserve the exquisite
odor. The scented beetle appears only
when the mimosa is in flower. Neither
birds nor lizards will destroy it, and
1t is protected even from the vora-
cious woodpecker by Its powerful per-
fume.

The Sea Hate.

The Sea Hate.
Soft 1t sings in shining ripples, glad be-
meath the golden day,
With laugh among the dune grass an
1t filings its jewel spray;
But ! hate its smiles and whispers, for
beneath the white curled crests
Lies the great black heart Of terror and
the wrath that never rests.
Hidden from the blessed daylight. in its
caves it heaves and throbs
with dreadful choking gurgle and a
sound of dying sobs;
And the long, dark. trailing seaweed,
lifted on its ebb and flow,
Is like hair of drowned women whelmed
within the undertow.
Through the pale green dusks of twi-
light from the rolling mystic line,
Comes chant of fear and beauty, calm,
sweet to me and mine;
But flee the siren music of the cruel
Turing flood,
For Its doom is in it's message and the
answer in my blood.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
GIRL.


Nobody can be all things to all men;
but married woman is expected to
be all things, from cook to a houri
to one man.
Trying to attract man without an
pealing to his vanity is about as ef-
fective as hailing street car on the
wrong corner.
After man has had the same en-
gagement ring returned by two or
three girls he begins to look upon it
as a talisman.
Consider the show girls, how they
dress; they toll not, neither do they
spin, yet Solomon in all his glory
was not arrayed like one of these.
Husbands are almost as rare now
adays as solid mahogany, and they
have to be watched just as carefully
owing to the prevalence Of affinities
Nothing frightens a man SO much
as his wife's dead silence after one
of his reflections; it is like a stone
wall with barbed-wire railing on top;
he can't get around it, nor see through
it, nor walk over it.

GREAT THINGS FOR sRAzos.
Commissioners Court 70 INTRODUCES
New System Of Public Read
Building.

The Eagfe yesterday afternoon gave
an account OF the members OF the
Commissioners Court going to the
black lands TO inspect the system OF
road making that Is done with heavy
road machinery propelled by n trac-
ton engine.
The party made splendid connec-
ton on their trip and got back last
night. much earlier than they expec-
ted. They went first 10 Ennis and
drove out into the country and in.
spected the various roads leading in
TO the city. These roads had been
constructed with the heavy steam
power machinery and were simply
fine. Monday morning they went 10
waxahachie and called on the county
Judge OF Ellis county and talked with
him about their system of road max.
ing. He kindly gave them all the in
formation he could and with some OF
the members Of his court accompanied
our commissioners TO the country
where the road gang was at work.
They found a large traction engine.
pulling three big graders at one time.
with the result that a splendid road
was being made. and made in a hurry.
Judge Board and the commissioners
were delighted with what they saw.
and as Mr.. Edge expressed IL. felt
ashamed that they had delayed so
long. putting In a system so far supe-
rior TO the one they have been using.
The selling agent OF this kind Of
machinery had already called ON the
court here. and by appointment me,
them In Waxahachie. and without fur.
ther delay an order was placed with
him for a full outfit OF steam power
road machinery. The outfit ordered
consists OF n 20-horse power traction
