Plowing for the fall crops is about to

that the merits of the Syracuse riding
plow should be looked into. By the

ed, the soil is turned to a uniform
depth. The plow can be handled suc-
cessfully on stony and rocky ground ;
it will turn the furrows up ihe bill
better than any hand plow made.

This la the season of the fresh-air
movement for the children iu the big
cities. John Baucroft Devins, mana.
ger of the New York [ribune fresh air
fund, is asking for places for * little
mothers '' and ** little fathers ' and
their charges for at least two weeks,
and he asks The Centre Reporter to
ask whether there are those in Centre
Hall or vicloity who will volunteer to
take children, as they did some twelve
or fifteen years ago. All expenses of
transportation are met by the fund,
Competent workers see that the chil-
dren, who range io age from six to
twelve and onc-half years, are as clean
a8 soap and water can make them,
their standard being that no child
should be sent to the country whose
physical condition would not warrant
him or her sleeping in the bed of the
worker herself,
Every child also passes a medical
examioation in co-operation with the
board of health within twenty-four
hours of leaving the city. Those who
would like to take a part in this char-
ity are asked to send word tothe Rev,
John Bancroft Devins, D. D., The Tri:
bune, New York. Or, better yet, the
Rev, Mr. Devins suggests that a local
commitiee be formed in Peuns Valley
and the work of obtaining places for as
largea number of these children as
possible be directed Ly this committee.
Are there those who will volunteer to
do the work ?

MODERN CHAIRS.
Revolution of Our Seats With Arms ana
High Backs,
Chairs with high backs and arms
after coming into general use with the
renaissance, began to be oruamented
with an smount of carving and gliding
that bas hardly since been equaled,
which came naturally from the artistic
tastes of the period. Their size, form
und the amount of decoration lavished
ou thew ludicuted the fank, fortune,
authority or wsocinl position of their
possessors. Bishops aud abbots had
seuts corresponding with thelr dignity,
while those below them sat on stools
or benches. Only the king and queen
and persons of high rank could be
seated on chairs with arms and backs
in the time of Catherine de Medic,
and her sons, courtiers and favorites
sat ubout them on stools called tabo-
rets,
This manner of expressing difference
of .rank prevalled under louls XIV,
and his successors down to the French
revolution, To the chairs elaborately
carved succeeded the armchair, so call-
ed in these times, which, with unim-
portant variations, is much the same
as in the reign of Louis XIV, Spec
meus of the stools used by the favor-
ftes and Iadles of honor of the king
and queen may still be seen lo the
royal palnces of France. They were
changed into the modern parlor chalr
by simply adding a back, which has
bardly made them more comfortable.

A KINGLY PICTURE.
Slovenly Figure Cut by Charles Xii, of
Sweden,
Distance lends enchantment to the
imagination as well as to the actual
vision, This is a fortunate circum-
stance, for the real truth about some
of the herves of history might to a per-
son today briug disenchautment and
even disgust. Charles X11. of Sweden
may claim the world’s admiration as a
military genius, but from Mr. Mortill's
description of the monarch, given in
the “Story of Poland,” that geutieman
would be auythiug but an agreeable
addition to society.

A kingly picture, indeed, savoring of
