Reflections of a Bachelor.
The way a bachelor learns so
much he ought not to know is by
never telling where he learns it.
To save his life a man cannot
make his wife distinguish the
difference between bis being sick
and cross.
Many a girl who isn’t red-
headed but pretends to be. is so
smart that that she can fool any
man about it till she gets war-
ned to him.
The two things that a woman
tries to work into the reason for
her husband not feeling well are,
the weight of his underwear and
insomnia.
Whether a woman’s gown has
seven yards of train to it or con-
sietjg principally of three feathers
an. ow shoulder straps, she
can manage to spend on it.all the
money she can get out of her
husband or father.
The right kind of wife sets
out to save all the money
husband squandered on
when thev were engaged
with the spirit and
of their fathers. A

Texas State Fair Enthusiastic
For Texas Exhibit at
St. Louis.
Dallas, Tex., July—The direct-
ors and officers of the Texas
State Fair and Dallas Exposition
are enthusiastic supporters of
the movement to have a Texas
exhibit at the St. Louis World’s
Fair. Their secretary, Capt.
Sidney Smith, in speaking of the
matter said:
“A display of the wonderful
products and resources of the
great State of Texas can be given
at the St Louis World’s Fair that
will astonish the world, and we
of the Texas State Fair will con-
sider it a reward for, and culmi-
nation, so to speak, of our efforts
along that line, for the last 17
years—efforts which have had
the valuable support of the press
of Texas, liberal railway mana-
gers, and the drummer, the
great evangelist of commerce.
“With all her natural wealth,
needing only capital and people
to develop it, with so much of
her fertile acreage still idle for
lack of f rmers to cultivate it,
and with her many fascinating
inducements needing only to be
shown to the homeseeker, what
state, what country, can be
named that needs so much an
exhibit at the St. Louis World's
Fair?
“The amount asked for by the
Texas World’s Fair Commission
is a mere bagatelle compared
with the benefits Texas will gain
by this move, and we know
enough about Texas people to
feel fully confident that twice
that amount can be raised if they
can be induced to give the matter
its due consideration. To assist
in bringing this about, we have
practically turned over our ad-
vertising car to the Texas
World’s Fair Commission, which
under the management of Louis
J. Wortham, has provided views
of the World’s Fair exhibition
palaces and much matter per
taining to the obligation which is
upon the people of Texas to see
that their state is adequately
represented in the greatest ex-
position in the history of the
world. We ask nothing in return
for our expenses, but donate its

She grew better at once and now
at the age of sevehty six, eats
anything she wants, remarking
that she fears no bad effects as

your health will be good. Kodol

A Kansas paper tells of the
dangers of newspaper borrowing
as follows:
“A man who was top economi-
cal to take his home paper sent
his little boy to borrow the copy
taken by his neighbor. In haste
the boy ran over a $4 stand of
bees, and in ten minutes looked
like a warty summer squash.
His cries reached his father who
ran to his assistance, and failing
to notice a barbed wire fence, ran
into that, breaking it down, cut-
ting a handful of flesh from his
anatomy, and ruining a $4 pair of I
paints. The cow took advantage '
of the gap in the fence and got
into the cornfield, and killed her-
self eating green corn. Hearing
the racket the wife ran, upset a I
four-gallon churn of rich cream !
into a basket of kittens, drown
ing them; in the hurry she lost
a $7.00 set of teeth. The baby,
left alone, crawled through the
cream and into the parlor, ruin-
ing a brand-new $20 carpet.
During the excitement the oldest
daughter ran away with the hir- 1
