in addition to the usual big and attrac
tive list of prizes and premiums of
fered by the Arkansas State Fair, and
the new catalogue shows a greater and
grander offering of inducements to
exhibitors than the management of the
"air has ever been able to announce
before.
There is one feature of Oaklawn
park upon which the Stale Fair prides
itself—that is the ample stable and
pen room and the absolute sanitary
condition of all housings for live stock.
The pens and stables are thoroughly
cleansed and deodorized each day,
and visitors and exhibitors will find
the greatest degree of sanitation and
comfort, both in exhibiting and view
ng the stock.

awement Scunde Incredible, but i-x
periment Will Speedily Demon
strate It to Be a Fact.
It seems incredible that a beam ot
light sould be made to produce sound,
but such a thing can be done. A ray
of sunlight is thrown through a lens
on a glass vessel containing lampblack,
colored silk or worsted, or any like
substance. A disk having slits or open
ings cut in it is made to revolve swift
ly in this beam of light, so as to "cut
it up,” thus causing alternate flashes
of light and shadow. When one places
his ear to the glass vessel he hears
strange sounds so long as the flashing
beam falls upon the vessel.
A still more extraordinary effect is
produced when the beam of sunlight is
made to pass through a prism, so as to
produce what is called the solar spec
trum. The disk 1* turned and the col
ored light of the rainbow is made to
break through it. Now, if the ear be
placed to the vessel containing the silk
or other material, as the colored lights
of the spectrum fall upon it, sounds
will be given by the different parts of
the spectrum and there will be silence
in other parts.
For example, if the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon it, loud sounds will he heard
when the red and the blue parts of the
rainbow fall upon the vessel. Other
colors produce no sounds at all.
Green silk gives out sound best in a
red light. Every kind of material gives
more or less sound in different colors
and no sound at all in others.—Har
per’s Weekly.
WORLD’S DEBT TO VEGETABLE
Possibly Sun Worship Had Its Origin
in Knowledge of the Fact of
the Dependence.
Vegetable life may worry along
without animals, but animal life can’t
continue without vegetables. There
fore, says an English chemist, man
owes a great debt of gratitude to the
vegetable. He should do his best to
foster it. It is not intimated whe her
this is an argument In favor of the
theories advanced by the vegetarian,
but it is considered ample proof man
would not be here only for the hum
ble vegetable kingdom.
But vegetables, like animate life,
are dependent upon sunlight for their
existence. The vegetable, however,
is both the direct and the indirect
sustenance of animal being. Animal
life of certain species exists solely, or
almost so, on the flesh of other ani
mals. But that latter food eventually
is dependent upon the vegetable.
Time would eradicate animate life
should Inanimate cease to exist. The
relations between plant and animal
form a beautiful dispensation. Man
owes to the vegetable more than he
does to lower animal life.
"Thus,” concludes this chemist,
“isn’t it possible the sun worshipers
perhaps had a greater realization of
the value of Old Sol than we of the
present century?”
Livingstone’s Resourcefulness.
David Livingstone, explorer and mis
sionary, was a man of varied accom
plishments. Besides getting himself
taught on board ship, and later by
Sir Thomas Maclear, to take with
great accuracy astronomical observa
tions for fixing latitude and longitude,
besides acquainting himself with bot
any and geology, with patristic litera
ture and Egyptology, Livingstone was
an excellent mechanic, a steersman
and a mariner. His resourcefulness
was at all times remarkable. When
he was hard up for fuel on his first
steamer journey up the River Shire
he landed in the elephant marsh. Here
no trees existed and no fuel was ob
tainable, but his men found many
bones of slaughtered elephants, Liv
ingstone at once took the bones on
board, burned them in the furnaces of
the Ma-robert, and so continued his
journey.
Picture Statesmen at Work.
A moving pictu- concern recently
obtained permission to take a series
of moving pictures illustrating French
parliamentary life. Legislators soon
got to hear of the matter, says Les
Nouvelles, some of them showing
themselves particularly anxious to fig
ure on the film. The taking of the
film lasted several days, and the oper
ator took pictures of the chamber at
all times. Photographs will show the
deserted benches of the morning, with
a dozen or so deputies discussing laws
affecting the whole of France, the sol
emn arrival of the president, life in
the lobbies, a stormy afternoon ses
sion and the thronged refreshment
bar.
Very Rapid Descent.
At the exhibition of post-impression
ist paintings in New York two Boston
men were standing in front of the
much-talked-of canvas alleged to rep
resent a figure descending the Btalrs.
“This is the worst yet,” criefl one.
"Look at it! It is simply a tangled
mass of streaks and splotches.”
“I think,” said the other, after gaz
ing at it a moment, “that the fault
lies in the title, which is not sufficient
ly explanatory. It should tell us that
it is a figure descending the stairs aft
er the careless scrub woman had left
a cake of soap on the top step.”
No Immediate Use for Them.
She (after the quarrel)—-I shall
send back your ring and other pres
ents tomorrow.
He—Oh. there’s no hurry. I don’t
expect to be engaged again for •
week or two.

Bunting Thoroughly Tested.
In very truth a modera battlwSMf
does. In modern phrasing, carry some
Bunting. About $150,000 Is spent by
the United States navy for flags each
year. Every case of bunting costs the
government $560; every roll coat*
$11.25. The bunting comes from
snchusetts. Every piece la subjected
to the most severe tost. It must
weigh five pounds to every forty yard*
and stand tho weight test of seventy
pounds to two srpiaro Inches. It Is
stooped in snlt water for six hours
and then exposed to tho sun for the
same period of tlmo. If after this
treatment It continues to bo bunting
of a distinguishable color It Is P*o
nounced fit for service.
Stick to Right Principles.
Tho man whose principles are right
will suffer his setbacks, lose his
1'r uds and have doubts, but In tho
lone, run lie will win, and the victory,
vlrch is the result of principle, is a
permanent one..
Dollar Bills Lead All.
There are more one dollar bills fn
circulation In this country than any
other denomination. The flve-dollar
bill is next in number.
