1t is the opinion of some of the
large steel interests that the in
dusty in this country will be
governed for some time largely
by conditions abroad, mainly as
the result Of the Underwood tar
iff. Until there is a sharp price
advance abroad it is not expected
that values will appreciate very
rapidly on this side Of the water.
To hold their markets against
foreign competition it will be
necessary to keep prices down.
This is apparent from the recent

BrIand as a DebateV.

M. Aristide Briand, whose admira- tion for MT Lloyd-George has just been confessed in the London Chroni- cle, taught himself readiness of speech on the Congers' Hall system. His plan was to haunt the Paris cafes and for an hour or two engage anyone who cared in political discussion. He strove with the enemy for the sake of the argument, putting forward difficulties which he did not always himself ac- knowledge in order that he might hear what could be said on the other eide. The result of his system was to make him one of the most formidable men in the chamber.

Never Friohten a Child.

Says the Italian physiologist, Mos so: Every ugly thing told to child. every fright. every shock given him will remain like a minute splinter in the flesh, to torment him all his life long" Doctor Barker. in quoting this statement with approval, adds: The mother, the nurse. the maid and the servants still frighten the child with tales of the bogy-man. of goblins or ogres, of witches and of wizards. Doctor Barker urges that instead of thus stimulating fears, the wise pa rent will endeavor to teach the child to be courageous and not to have fear of the dark or of thunder or light ming, or be afraid of being alone. Ger tain fears common to childhood. he says. are easily overcome. especially through the example of courage set by the parent. nurse or teacher. There are cases. however. in which fears are a symptom of disease. Thus, a young girl brought to Doctor Barker because of a distressing fear of burglars 1n the house" was found to be suffering from goiter. Children who suffer from night terrors" often have adenoids.

DEMONSTRATION AGAIN.

The quorum court of our neighbor county, Conway, appropriated out of the county funds for farm demonstra- tion, $1,000; for canning club work, $400, and for the county fair, $1,O00. In addition to this, $400 was appro- priated for county exhibit at the Panama exposition at San Francisco.
 For all of the foregoing laudable purposes the quorum court of Faulk- ner county appropriated nothing.
 Faulkner county. has for several years borne the reputation of being one of the most progressive counties in the state along educational and ad- vanced agricultural lines. It's fame has not only spread over the entire state, but has many times been her aided to the entire nation. Until the diversity brought about by the Euro pean war, the farmers of this county were rapidly becoming among the most prosperous and independent in the state. They are perhaps today as well able to withstand the present conditions as any other farmers in Arkansas.
 That the farm demonstration work which has been done here in recent years has been largely responsible for these achievements cannot be denied. Many other counties have been led by Faulkner's success to adopt our methods and the county which was one of the first in the state to take up demonstration has become a center of intelligent and advanced farming ideas. Looking across our borders Conway county has seen what we have been doing and is endeavorine to follow our successful methods.
 Yet the quorum court of Faulkner county has repudiated all these achievements As we see it. it is the duty of the farmers and the business men who believe in the demonstration system to rally again to it's support and to provide by public subscriptions what has been refused by the quorum court.

CARPET WEAVING IN PERSIA
duetion Is Celebrated Through out the World.

Generally speaking, tho carpets of India can never excel those of Persia. as the materials used in the former are not of the same superior quality as those employed in the latter country. The wool of which many of the best carpets are manufactured is obtained from Kashmir. Sometimes carpets which are mistaken for silk are really of an extremely fine quality of wool known as 'pashm." This is obtained from the goats of Kashmir and grows close to the skin. being protected by the long and coarser wool. It is as smooth and lustrous as silk and Is used for the beautiful soft shawls for which Kashmir is famous. Peculiar methods are employed by the Indian weaver in converting his original de- sign into textile. Instead of work ing from colored drawing or diagram. the weaver has the pattern translated on paper into rows of symbols, each of which expresses the number of stitches and the color. With this written key" in his hand, the head weaver sits be- pattern to them, one row at time, all through the breadth of the carpet. These weavers-generally quite small boys-sit in front of the warp strings and tie in the requisite number of stitches of each color as called out to them by the reader from his ciphered scrip. These boys. who perform the actual process of weaving the pile. fol- low day by day the dictations of the head man. knowing nothing of the pat tern they are preparing, but gradually building up in mechanical way the carpet on the strings before them.

EFFICIENCY HANDICAPPED.

Sometimes the efficiency of a man in a public office is so universally rec ognized that even the power of pol itics is unable to remove him. This is the case with pr. J.. l.. Greene, su- perintendent of the state hospital for the insane.
 One of the first acts of Governor Donaghey was to secure 8 man of un- questioned efficiency and ability as the head of this institution. The sit uation as to the insane in Arkansas six years ago was the shame of the state. There was hardly county jail without one or more insane patients, the conditions in some cases being too horrible to relate. Within short time and with even less money than was given his predecessor, pr. Greene had not only relieved every prison of it's insane, but had made changes in the management and achieved inn provements among the patients that were no less than marvellous.
 But Dr. Greene was high salaried man and he came from "the North" and he was appointed by Donaghey. So that as soon as the anti-Donaghey forces had triumphed there was a loud clamor among the petty poli- ticians for Dr. Greene's scalp. Yet in the face of his splendid record, the new administration dared not accept the resignation which he presented. h., .o%1 and unostentatiously performing his fine work, through the administra- tions of the various governors who have succeeded Governor Donaghey, and now we find Governor Hays not only declining to join the opposition to pr. Greene, but also persuading him not to present his resignation. It is refreshing instance of the tri- umph of efficiency over politics.

SECURE SLEEP IN DAY TIME
Order of Nature 10 Reversed in the Case of Some Plants, According
 to Botanists.

Clover shuts its leaves before rain and at night, bringing two of it's three leaves face to face and folding the third over the top, according to the Scotsman. Tae young blossoms are also carefully sheltered by inclosing leaves, which move forward in the evening and warp them around.
 There are two plants in the garden whose flowers sleep by day-the night blooming stock and Lychnis vesper- tina. The former Is withered and shriv. eled in daylight, but expands and ex- hales a vanilla-like odor at night. Tho Lychnis Is white, and in bright sum shine every flower closes and hangs Imply down. AS the sun sets, the En- dymoin plant awakes expectant of tho moon. The dropping calyxes raise themselves and slowly expand their flowers; 1t visibly ceases to droop and fade, and the plant which almost died by day is adorned anew. It's sister. the red Lychnis, shines by day, and is called the diumna, but this white one has long left the beaten ancestral path and has become vespertina.
 As it opens small flies appear and visit 1t; the calyx is of that reddish hue which they approve. The surface which attracts flies shows the same dull red in its leaves. It is not rarity. but few have seen it's blossoms opened.
