Ever since 1853 we have been
buying and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball Hol

we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot

TOOK HIS WORK SERIOUSLY
Harvard Professor of Greek Insisted
That His Students Should Giva
Best Efforts to Studies.
A scholar of unusual appearance and
manner was Professor Sophocles of
Harvard, whose genuine love of Greek
left him no patience with Indifferent
students and sometimes led to the
charge that he dealt unjustly with the
young men in his classes. This anec
dote of him appears in Mr. John Spen
cer Clark's life of John Flske.
One day a backward student called
to explain his remissness and to assure
the professor that he did love his
Greek study.
“Then name two of your favorite
passages,” said the professor.
The student named one !n the Iliad
and one In the Oedipus. Professor
Sophocles handed him the books, say
ing "Find those passages and read
them to me.”
The student, lu his reading, mad
several serious mistakes..
“Young man,” said the professor,
brusquely, “you do not understand
Greek! You have no love for that
noble language! You murder it!
Enough 1 I want no more to do with
you."
There was much complaint In the
class of ’63 that the professor’s mark.
were Incorrect, and particularly lu the
eases of three students entitled to
widely different marks. When they
complained, Professor Sophocles re
plied :
"I can’t distinguish between you.
gentlemen. You must take your
chances ns to what you get.”
OCEAN’S LAW MOST STRIGT
Among Fishes the Important Fact of
Life Seems to Be, “Eat or
Be Eaten."
In the Dublin museum n stuffed
angler fish, commonly known as a fish
ing frog, may be seen. Its stomach still
swollen by an enormous cod which It
had swallowed. In the stomach of
the cod were found two large herrings
In each herring were several sprats,
while each sprat. In turn, contained u
number of tiny crustncenns, or shell
fish.
In the salt seas, It Is eat or be eaten.
The fishing frog, a flsh shaped like a
gigantic legless frog, and provided with
a luminous bnlt which It dangles from
a long feeler over Its wide mouth, has
the most prodigious appetite. As many
as 20 flounders have been found Inside
one fishing frog; another contained tiO
herrings.
Each flsh has its special prey. Pol
lack assemble In shoals and pursue
the close formations of young cod.
They surround the cod, drive them to
the surface and devour them. Whit
ing, In slmilar*fushlon, pursue and de
vour the herring shoals, while hake
feed upon sardines.
Mackerel will eat any small flsh.
They devour enormous quantities of
fry, being especially fond of young
mackerels. The John Dory's favorite
food Is sprats, while rays are not par
ticular i they will devour any flsh that
come their way.
Self-Reliance.
Now Is the time for every one who
wants work to think up something for
himself. Don't depend upon somebody
else. The Integrity of life consists In
self-reliance. Be your own proprietor.
If It Is of nothing else but an acre and
a little shop. We know the difficulty
and do not discard the sympathy. But
regard ruther that Independence and
high purpose that make up the reul
manhood. Men will have to work for
others while time lasts, but there Is
nothing so uoble In the hearts ns the
aspiration to be one’s own man and
direct one’s own destiny. Society is
divided In classes these days, each one
striving to outwit the other, but the
grandest cluss of all Is the man him
self, with his own destiny In his fists.
With all our organized Industry, there
never was a time when Individual en
terprise had a better chance than now.
If you are articulated In soino great in
dustry, keep In the heart the hope that
you will be your own master some day.

Few Fine Pearls Found.
New fine pearls are rarely found
nowadays because the demand has
been so great and the fisheries have
been worked so continuously that the
pearls are not given time to grow. If
a fine pearl Is bought. It Is rarely one
that has not been In the market for
many years and passed from one deal
er to another. Dealers today depend
to a large extent upon purchases of
pearls from collections of rajahs and
princes In India and of old families In
Europe. They declare that every time
a large and really fine pearl appears
In the market a hundred wealthy per
sons bid for It. Consequently the best
pearls are beyond the reach of any but
tho wealthiest people.
Quips Which Tickle Travelers.
Nature seems occasionally to have
been In an Impish mood of Jocularity
when she was about her work of
shaping und molding things. For In
stance, why did she make the Dalma
tian side of the Adriatic one mass of
Islands and creeks, which are just so
many hiding holes for any power that
has designs on Italy, und at the same
time lay the Adriatic seaboard of Italy
as bare and fiat and plain ns she could
plan It? Was It to make the Italian
people wide-awake and watchful and
resourceful? Besides, the modern
world in Its pride must never forget
thut the peninsula produced the
Homan. . _
CHARGE THAT WON FLOTILLA
Remarkable Exploit of South American
Llaneros When Operating With
General Simon Bolivar.
The Llanero of South America lives
on horseback. Ho trades, buys nnd
sells on horseback, and during the war
with Spain the Llaneros contributed j
much toward achieving the indepond- j
enee of Venezuela and New Granada. J
There Is related a story of an oc- |
casion when It was necessary for 1
Bolivar's army to cross the Apure to \
engage Morillo. Hut Bolivar had no
boats and the Apure at this point was
wide and deep.
The Spanish flotilla was guarding
the river opposite to the patriot forces.
Bolivar was in despair. Turning to
Paez he said, “I would give the world
to have the Spanish flotilla; without It
I can never cross the river.”
“It shall be yours In an hour,” re
plied Paez.
Selecting 300 of his Llanero lan
cers, all distinguished for strength
nnd bravery, he said, pointing to the
gunboats. “We must have these
flecheras or die. Let those follow who
please.”
Spurring his horse he dashed into ;
the river and swam toward the flo
tilla. The Llaneros followed with their
lances In their bands, now encouraging
their horses by swimming beside them
mi'i £ 'U i i i » i ii *J f
to scare away the crocodiles, of which
there were hundreds. At last they
reached the other side and sprang from
their horses’ backs on board the^boats,
headed by their leader. To the aston
ishment of every one they actually
captured the entire flotilla.
An Overpaid Threepence.
Sis cents overpaid Into the bank of
the Dover rate collection department
hns proved a costly mistake, says an
English exchange. The government
auditor declined to sign ihe audit, and
nearly three months were spent by the
office stalT got I' • through Ihe whole of
the -rate e'-ovnts. but the overpaid
threepence v- :u»t tr- eed. Eventual
ly an appeal h: d to be made to the
auditor, as the work of the depart
ment was being seriously held up. and
the accounts were passed subject to
the consent of the overseers, which
has been given. It is estimated that it
cost several hundred pounds endeavor
ing to trace this overpaid threepence.

We put away millions of pounds of fine
Kentucky Burley tobacco every year, stored
in wooden hogsheads. It ripens two years.
When we take it out it’s different—Nature
has improved it, good as it was—made it
friendlier, more fragrant, cool-smoking,
long-burning.
Nature has given it a delicious quality of
mildness and fragrance that no artificial
means can ever equal.
It’s just that extra
touch of friendly good
ness that is building
