SMALL TALK.
What has become of Chopper?
The »pir*l bustle is now in great
demand by the ladies.
<>aßaglier "let her go” again yester-
\ girl who lives on Alamo street
< n rather too often out by the I.
. <4. N. at night for her own good.
>hey a ted like sweethearts” is
(.' • way one lady gave in her evidence
against a guilty pair recently.
< hie young lady soon to be married
is acting very indiscreetly in meeting
anothei fellow clandestinely at that.
Another wedding in a two-story
house on San Pedro avenue is not far
off’.
Some furniture dealers don’t seem
to get along well in their domestic af-
fairs.
Will that girl go back to her work
now that the base ball league don’t
reach San Antonio ?
Alderman Schreiner: If the people
want evening marketing let the mat-
ter be brought up in a decent way and
I will be in favor of it.
The recent announcement in the
Light of a lady's approaching mar-
riage hits a certain poor fellow very
hard. Don’t bother about her Char-
ley but try again.
In St. Mary’s seminary is the skin
of a large rattlesnake hung upon one
of the pillars. What it is there for is
not known but perhaps it is to con-
tinually remind the young ladies of
their ancient enemy.
A young married man remarked the
other night that before he was mar-
ried his weight was 135 pounds. He
now weighs 160 pounds. Married life
seems to agree with him.
A young lady starting out for a
Sunday drive to* the West End didn’t
go. A spring of the buggy broke but
whether her weight had anything to
do with it or not can’t say.
A lady of this city who has never
been accused of a literary turn of
mind is writing a book and what is
best the first chapters seen are good
containing many new thoughts.
The "banker’s bouquet” ought to
have a book named after it and it is
suggested that a few pages could be
added by his wife along with a few
notes of thanks from the girl who gets
the Howers.
Four young men had to postpone
their New York trip recently just on
account of Judge Boaman’s rulings in
certain cases of smugglers. The
smugglers didn’t get to go to Albany
either but they were not grieved.
Mr. Walter Scott says "Begorra I’d
like to make a mesquite block statue
of justice or liberty or something to
put on top of that citv hall and if
they’ll let me I will.” Wonder if he
would put a Highland kilt on it?
A certain old bachelor a school
teacher at that lives so comfortably
in his rooms that when recently asked
why he did not marry said : "I am
happy and at ease now and I am
afraid if I get married then the
trouble would begin.” But the lady
with the blooming cheeks did not
hear him.
At a recent communion service in
one of the churches a hardened old
policeman stopped by the door and
remarked to a reporter as the bread
and wine were passing "In my day
down in Kentucky we only had corn
bread and whisky up in the moun-
tains and we used that for sacrament.”
The Verdict Unanlmoua
W. D. Sult DruggUt Bippua Ind. teatlfiea:
"I can recommend Electric Bittera aa the very
beat ramedy. Every bottle told baa giyen re-
lief in aver/ caae. One man took aix bottles
and waa cured of Rheumatiam of 10 years'
funding." Abraham Hare druggiat Bellville
Mioamrma: “The beat Belling medicine I
kave ever handled In my 2U yeara’ experience

Better Than Bloody Battles.
General Wheatcroft Nelson says:
"My experience in the English army
as well as in America convinces me
that nothing so thoroughly purifies
the blood or adds to health vigor and
life as Acker’s English Blood Elixir.

Careless Mothers.
Many mothers have permitted their
children to die before their eyes when
they might have been saved. Any
mother who keeps house without a
bottle of Arcker’s English Baby
Soother at handj runs a risk which
she may sometime regret. It has
saved the lives of thousands of child-
ren and is doing so every year.

Terrible Forewarnings.

Steps in the doorway leading
SMALL PROFIT
by the hand.
Every dog has its day and old overcharge
has had his. It was a wet night when he was
laid to rest.
The People’s Friend “Backet”
Said: “No room for you in here for you come
of bad stock and might contaminate us.”
So the old fraud crouched in a corner of the
doorway and slept. When the clerks came in
the morning they found him cold and stiff.
They took him up and buried him twelve feet
deep in a vacant lot beyond all hope of res-
urrection.
