nENA PUBLIC LIBRARY.

Mena owes large debt of grati- tude to the earnest won en of the Woman's Literary Club, who year by year give of their time and thought and labor to build up and maintain the Mena Public Library. In this, be it said, they have always received a fairly liberal support from all the people of the city. However, it is equally as true, that these ladies have made good on the proposition to give value re- ceived in each appeal to the public for aid to the library, as evidenced by the class and character of the entertainments furnished in each instance.
 The one discouraging feature that faces the workers in . this grand cause, is that the PATRONAGE of the library is not what it should be. There should be ten who take ad- vantage of the opportunities offered for culture and knowledge where one does so. This is the one disap- pointment and all thoughtful citi- gems should seek to remedy it Lby their own acts and by influence on their children.
 Located, as it is, adjoining beau tiful Jansen park, housed in an attractive building on pret ty grounds, Mena Public Library should in the hearts of the people, vie with the former. All honor to the found- CTS and supporters of both.

George V. Has a Mind of His Own

What ever else George V. may be, he will not be a constitutional king of the type which appears to commend itself to some popular poli- ticians, whose ideal would seem to be that of penny-in- the-slot kind of an automaton wound up every morning by his ministers, without initiative, conscience, or judgment of his own. It is written in Black stone that the King of England can do no wrong, and is even incapable of thinking a wrong thought. That of course, must be interpreted with the rider, in his official capacity as sovereign, for most of our kings have compounded for their official inn peccability in words and in thoughts by considerable license of thoughts and action in their private capacity. What is certain is that our new mon areh has not come to the throne with his mind as an immaculate sheet of white paper upon which his advisers may write what theNplease. When his Most Gracious Majesty is official ly advised by his constitutional ad- visers that the welfare of the state demands that he should take any specific action, he will, of course, as in duty bound, act upon their advice. Walter Bagehot once said that it was a kings constitu- tional duty to sign his own death
 warrant if it were sent up to him by
 the vote of the lords and commons.
 But before King George acted upon the advice of any one set of minis ters which he thought detrimental
 to the welfare of his realm he would certainly do his utmost to see wheth- CT it was not possible to furnish
 himself with another set of advisers with whose ideas he would be more
 in accord. For the great and won- derful thing about the new king is that he is man who has ideas of his own-political ideas of his own---and, what is perhaps more unprecedented stil, we all know what these ideas are. From King George Succeeds

The Astronomers.

Back in 1855 certain gentlemen peered out into the night through long tubes, covered few pages with figures and then announced that in the early part of 1910 Halley's comet would return from it's trip of three thousand million miles through space, and make the circuit of the sun. In September, 1909, German astronomer, searching for the wan derer, sighted it in almost the exact place where it was due under the calculations of three-quarters of a century before. A few days later it was announced that a correction Of three days would have to be made in the predicted date of the comets passage nearest the sun. The earth was then notified that May IS the comet would pass within about four teen million miles and that if the tail were streaming out directly away from the sun, and were long enough, the earth would pass through it.
 Almost like necromancy, isn't it, the work of these astronomers They predict eclipses for you as many years in advance as you care to ask. They notify you to the sec ond. the time of high or low tide for any date you may set. They warn you of the approach of comets, of the waxing and waning of the plan cts, of the transits of Venus. With a series of observations and compu- tation, they discover the existence of a planet which they never saw. They weigh the sun and the moon and the earth and analyze the com position of bodies distant a hundred million miles.
 Wouldn't it be great if the human mind always worked as surely and as brilliantly in other fields as it does in that of astronomy ?-Kansas City Star.

The ChiIeren,s Table Manners.

After a long illness in the hospi- tai, returned home to find that my children's table manners had suf- fered a complete demoralization, !" says Woman's Home Companion for June. They 'gobbled, used knife and fork indiscriminately and always awkardly, regarded their spoons as shoyels and, in short, were perfect little savages.
 In order to remedy this quickly l started a series of company lunch cons, at which I was hostess and the children the guests. I set the table as prettily as possible and made funny little place-cards. The children played up delightedly, took grown-up names aad even washed their hands without murmur. We made set of simple rules: The guests who behaved perfectly re- ceived three pieces of candy. the
  guests who made only one mistake received one piece of candy, while any unfortunate guest who com mitted three breaches of table eti- quette received no candy at all
 Questions on table manners were in order at any time, to be answered by the hostess.
 T chose dishes for these luncheons which are not always easy to eat ele- gantly. and was very happy to see how quickly the children improved in table manners and ether manners as well, for our company luncheons' seemed to help general courtsey quite wonderfully. The best of it was that there was no nagging nor cross wcrds It was all good fun.
