A Dialogue at the Door

Citizen Outforwork, hat in hand, &C.
costed the professor as he came out of
Candid House: II have a wife and
four small children"
''You only think you have" said the
professor; your state is merely psy-
Geological"
II haven't had any work for six
months, since the factory"
Fie," cried the professor, taking
off his eyeglasses and waving them in
wide gesture of depreciation; don't
you know that non employment is
merely psychological"
My wife and children are actually
hungry"
Nonsense, my dear sir; hunger is
merely psychological"
My brother has just been fred from
the x. Y. & 2. railroad; the railroad
people said they had to reduce ex-
penses."
How ridiculous; expenses Of rail
roads are merely psychological. So is
your brothers discharge"
Professor, will you lend ME dol
lar? When better times"
This is most unbecoming language.
What times could be better than these?
Times are merely psylogical. So is
your assumed need of a dollar. Learn
to know the need Of mankind and to
find that need in yourself. Everything
but Colonel House and my Mexican
policy is merely psychological. Money
to a victim of the merely psychological
state called out of job7' Goodbye.
I wish you more psychology and bet

it was handled. The Pine Bluff men who had charge of the convention ar1 engagements have every reason to reel
 gratified over the success of thelr
 work. All visitors who were heard to comment upon the arrangeme -lts were highly complimentary of the manner in which the delegates were received and entertained, and of the way the meeting itself was handled. While Pine Bluffs only purpose was to make the stay of all pleasant, in accomplishing this the city made an investment that may prove profitable at some future date when Pine Bluff may desire the aid of the people in some movement looking to the fur ther upbuilding of this city and sec tion.

In sizing up the business outlook the New York Herald says that there are signs on every side that the per iod Of retrenchment, economy, doubt and gloom has ended and that the country is about to enter upon an era of expansion and prosperity. "He who declaims about business calam- ity," says the Herald, twill soon have to get an audience. Both the se- curities and commodities markets, it says, have been liquidated, the weak spots uncovered and eliminated, aal the business of the country is now on rock bottom.

THE GERMS IN MILK.

Living boddies, both great and small, are usually found in definite place. The bacteria found in milk are indeed a mixed collection. The fact that certain organisms are fre- quently found in milk does not neces- sarily mean that they originate in the udder. but rather directs the search toward the focus of infection !, from which they find, their way into the secretion of the mammary gland. It ifs known, says The Journal of the American Medical Association, that while the eelen group is ffequ emily Ef6n1h in water. and milk, it's natural habitat is the intestinal tract of warm -blooded animals. The experts of the Dairy Diversion of the, Bureau of Animal Industry in Washington have been Investigating the sources from which the streptococci may gain entrance into milk. The fore most possibilities are: contaminatio: lswith feeces, which must always be
 considered as a possible source o
 contamination; the presence In th' Eherd of one or mor cows with infect
 ed uddeds, and. the cows mouth (which is known to contain streptoc Eocci. Its habit of licking the flank
 a nd udded provides more or les direct connection between the mout lof the COW and the milk-pail.

A TEsr OF YOUTH.

Up to what age may man con sider himself still young? is the ques- ton at St. Petersburg newspaper pu! to it's readers. Here are a few of the answers:
 Until women begin to regard his declarations of love as lnolfenslve gallantry; so long as they take his gailantries as authentic declarations of love he is young" | "So long as mothers frown whe ttheir daughters smile upon him..
 One correspondent voices his sad ness in the following pathetic cpl gram:
 | Alas" The daughters of the wom en loved passionately embrace mt now as they would kiss a sacred ikon!"

The newspaper men who came to Pine Bluff to "cover" the state con vention are about as fine fellows as it is possible to meet. This thought has been uppermost since the "boys" reached here. but has been suppressed
 from public expression because of rear they might become puffed up by such complimentary newspaper notice. The average newspaper man is more accustomed to brick bats than boquets, and is likely to become quite embarrassed when complimented. But it is due to the genteel, clever fel- lows who have been here gathering
 and disseminating 'lews of the con vention to say that Pine Bluff nov any other convention city has ever
 been favored by the newspapers send l ing cleaner or more whole-souled and big-hearted mea to "do" any bic event. Pine Bluff has obtained tn | good will of these men, and this Is worth more than can be measured II
 dollars and cents.

NEW PICTURE Of .P0RFIRI0 DIAz
Former Mexican President
 "Two Men in One" Says Mrs. TWeedie.

One of the stories told of former President Diaz of Mexico by Mrs. Alec Tweedie has to do with his habit of walking around the city alone, says the Christian Science Monitor One evening, dressed in his tweed , suit, he came upon fire engine play ing upon fire. He at once took charge of the work and showed what was best to be done his old military skill coming promptly to the front ill this attack of an active foe. He him , self held the hose to direct it alright. The fire was put out and then he dis covered that the house was that of an old friend and valued officer.
 | It is said that DiaZ went everywhere alone, more safe from attack than | perhaps any other ruler in the world was, among his half-civilized popu- lace. 'He loves his people and will do anything to give them pleasure, '' says Mrs. Tweedie. q have seen him extraordinarily dignified and majes- tic, Diaz the unapproachable, and have seen him in blue serge suit playing with baby children-Diaz the grandpapa. He is two men in one, a great ruler and autocrat and kind ly, gentle, homely man. He. excels ill both, and it is hard to believe the other possible when in the presence of either. The greatest personality in the history of our modern world, and the most romantic, forsooth."
 Visiting the military academy he saw a long hanging rope near. He said, q wonder if can climb that now?" He took off his coat and went up it, hand over hand. When he came down he said, Now you can say that you have seen man of 70 climb a rope" It is to be remembered that when General Diaz, seeing the deficit in the national treasury, decided to cut down all salaries of government employees, he. set the example, cut l ting his own from $3O,O0O to $15,0OO a year. Education is his ruling passion
 He said to congress-: "The instruction of the people is so essential to demo- cracy that it's progress and perfec- ton, which monarchical governments
 regard as a charity, is with us one o1 our greatest duties" He used to gc once year to inspect various schools
 and would take heed of the minuetest details.

SUNSTROKE AND
 ITS, TREATMENT
pr. J. H. Kellogg in The Battle Cree, # Idea)

,Hippocrates who lived 300 years before Christ had a very simple method of treating people for sun. stroke. His plan was to have one person pour cool water on the patient while two or three others rubbed him vigorously. The application of cold water alone is dangerous because 1t drives the blood inward. If we apply cold water to the skin, and at the same time rub the surface vigorousy this brings the blood to the surface and keeps it there and the body is rapidly cooled.
 Sunstroke is a very dangerous &C.,. cident. And is likely to prove fatal without proper treatment; but by the use of cold water poured from height of five or six feet and with two or three people rubbing the patient viz orously we may expect cure in near ly every case. Especial pains should be taken to wet the head and back of the neck ,and keep these parts cool. Continue the rubbing until the skin is we'll reddened and conscious
 ness restored.

Philosopher James J. Hill says we are going to have trouble because wages are too high. Poor Hill has himself suffered frightfully from low wages. He may not be worth more than a couple of hundred millions, largely because of too high wages on his roads. Mir. Hill belongs to that genial school of philosophy that holds that "all the working man and the farmer are entitled to is living and they ought to be glad to get that"

BUSINESS GIRLS

This Is Charge of Barnard College
 Founder, Discussing Dress.

New York, June 4.-Does the work ing girl know how to dress-does she wear clothes that are neat, in conspicuous and sensible?
 "The dress of the working girl of today is absolutely wrong on two counts" insists Mrs. A. N. Meyer, founder of Barnard College, and au- thor of "The Dominant Sex; ''it is characterized by inefficiency and by sex appeal. Of course, this is not true of all working women, but l have not found the. neat, impersonal business woman yet.
 ''The clothes worn by many women in business offices are as incongru- ous as the velvets and satins of the days of Queen Elizabeth would be for men," she exclaimed. When the girl uptown wears conspicuously

Motor Boats on Congo,

Leopoldville, Africa, June 4.-Boat service for freight, mail and passen- gers will be started today from this city to Stanley Falls and upon other river routes by the aid of three so- called sliding motor boats recently sent by sthe Belgian government. These boats have a draught of only |27A inches, are .57 feet long and are driven with motors. The boats can each bear a load of eight tons and accommodate eight passengers in an airy cabin suited to ehtropics. The Accommodations are much like those of a Pullman car. and river traffic on the Congo will be greatly improved by this new service. ts

 ROSPERITY
\ GOOD PLATFORM.

While there, may be difference or opinion. as to the, work of the state Democratic convention in regard to the disposition of the senatorial con- test, all men must agree that the platform committee headed by Judge w. M. kavanaugh framed an instru- mcnt that is a model ill its way. The committee might have included a plan endorsing the publicity bill, but , because it did not do so is not to be accepted as evidence that Democracy of Arkansas is opposed to throwing the light of publicity ol official mat ters. {. The best plank Tn the platform is the shortest: as5f% '',A s'..-' 'ss'-''
 "We favor the adoption of new constitution and ask the legislature 10 call convention for that pur- pose" '. M S8l l < A new constitution is Arkansas' greatest need. The present instru- meat did very we'll during, recon struction days, but like the ma chinery in use then it is annquated today.
 Four years ago the editor of The Graphic began urging a call for constitutional convention, and recent ly all progressive papers in the stat' and all progressive men have persist atly advocated the framing of new constitution. Since the campaigl ywas started, two legislatures have heen in session and at each efforts were made to issue call, but tn moss backs blocked the road Q progress, Now that the Democrac, of the state. in convention assembled has requested the calling of a con stitutiouar convention, the politician in the legislature will hardly nav the effrontery to refuse.
 The composition of the constitu tional convention will be an import ant matter. That will be decided l the legislature. and it should provld for equal representation of business agricultural. labor and manufactul ing. as we'll as legal interests.
 Other good blanks of the platforl are those providing for the piacin of legislators on salary; for speci' tax levy for education institutions the state; general drainage laN and especially that advocating sta aid for public highways and tf operation of rock crushers by u highway commission with such col yicts as are not needed on the sta farm. In this regard, the platfor might have gone further and urge that the profits of convict's labt be paid to those who were dependel upon him, thus taking steps to avo punishing the innocent with u guilty.
 Taken as whole. the Pine Blu convention platform is an excelle one and should be faithfully follow by the legislature.

Mrs. Tweedie described the rows of people who stood waiting to see President Diaz about their business or their troubles or their needs. She says that any one, man or woman, who wished to see the president of Mexico could see him. No courtiers intervened, no wire-pullers worked for their OWL benefit. The people could see him and see him alone, under four eyes. There is no red tape, no pigeonholing."

CONAN lOYLENS MISTAKE.

Dr. Conan Doyle, father of SherF lock Holmes, makes bigger hit as a writer of readable but impossible detective stories than he does as a political prognosticator. pr. Doyle landed in New York the other day, probably to deliver some lectures and like the thrifty body -se is. he gave out an interview as soon as ne touched the gang -piank-for advertls- ing purposes, of course. He said the British people were going to turn down equal suffrage.

land were that the people are getting tired Of the foolishness of the wild women who are heading the suffrage movement He thinks that the British
 people will sour entirely against
 votes for women. There is no doubt that not only
 England but the whole world is heartily sick of the antics of the short-haired women and long-haired men who are trying to convince the public of the right of women to the ballot by beating tom-toms, prancing around the streets with banners and brass bands, tearing down stautes and spelling valuable paintings, publicly insulting harmless and we'll meaning folw like r. and Mrs. George Victim, the king and queen of Eng land, and by making themselves public nuisances generally.
 But Dr. Conan Doyle forgets that these crazy women like the Pank hurst and her followers are not the real leaders of the equal suffrage movement. They are by no means representative women of the woman's suffrage movement that was dignifi . ed by women like Susan B. Anthony.
 They are suffragettes, not advocates
 of equal suffrage. They are the camp followers. not the real army. They hinder the real woman's suffrage
 movement temporarily, only because
 the general public, like Dr. Conan Doyle, temporarily loses sight of the fact that these sporadic disturbers are merely violaters of the public peace who represent nobody but themselves.
