THE WOMAN'S EXCHANGE.
This afternoon the members of the
Woman's exchange had their annual meet-
ing and election of officers. The meeting
was well attended and there was much In-
terest In the proceedings. The reports of
committees made a very favorable show-
Following are the officers: President,
Mrs. John F. Dickson, re-elected; first v ce
president, Mrs. A. E. Sydnor; second v ce
president, Mrs. 9. K. Mcllhenny; third v ce
president, Mrs. A. G. Henry; fourth vice
president. Mrs. J. E. McComb: secretary,
J. A, Huston; treasurer, 8, B. Strong.
Following is the address of the president,
Mrs. Dickson: _ ,
To the Members and Friends of the
Woman's Exchange of Houston: With my
annual greeting as president, I come be-
fore you now for the fifth time, as we are
entering t'he eighth year of the existence
of this exchange. The one just past has
been fraught with fears and hopes. Fears
that the general financial depression might
affect our business 'to such an extent as to
probablv emibaitrads us. Our increased
rent and other fixed expenses forced us to
question our ability to make ends meet.
Our former liberal customers, who had
spent money with such lavish hand, had
less to spend and bought only Just what
tihey actually had to have. Even with our
newly e>ftaibliished rule of making all con-
signors members, and collecting from them
monthly dues, the question was ever be-
fore us: "Will we be able to pay expenses
The solution of this Important question has
been solved through the efforts of some
of our members <by actual work and lib-
eral contributions toward preparing and
serving refreshments for several of our
social clubs, and for our own entertain-
meHts, and we have secured sufficient to
cancel ail our obligations up to date and
now we owe no man a penny and still
liave a balanoe In bank.
Considering the "hard times" cry of the
past year we should -feel proud Indeed that
vie even exist. Our hopes have been some
What realized, and our business relations
are on a more extended basis and brighter
•hopes for the present year encourage us,
while similar Instituttons in other cities
have had to succumb to the exigencies
of the times and are now only things of
ithe past.
The aims and ends of this refined charity
i.s every year being better understood. The
Character of all kinds of handiwork has
vastly Improved. Our Mexican work, some
in its beauty and daintiness as fine as the
spider's web, defies competition. Our edl-
bUss are 'the choicest that can be devised
by care, experience and ambition.
During the past year the grim reaper
entered our ranks and first claimed Mrs.
S. E. Labuzan, Who died November 16.
She was one of t'he first promoters of the
'woman's exchange. The best sympathies
of 'her heart were in its work, and She was
n strong advocate and believer in its
ultimate success. She gave tangible evi-
dence of 'her faith by liberal donations,
having furnished gratuitously for over two
years all of tlhe books and stationary neces-
sary for our business, In fact until we re-
fused to accept any more, feeling she was
doing more than her share.
December 8 we were called to mourn the
loss of Mrs. Laura Bibb Foute, another of
a.he founders of the exchange. Her bright
winsome face and ways are kindly remem-
bered by her hosts of friends as a true,
womanly .woman, who always manifested
a deep Interest in the institution she fos-
tered in its infancy. Young though she
was, she hud passed through more than her
share of trouble; ".but earth has no sor-
rows 'that 'heaven can not heal."
February 3 Mrs. Judge Grey, one of our
most esteemed and oldest members was
called to her eternal rest. Her sympathies
were ever alive to the helping of women,
her words of encouragement and praise
dwell In our memories as the perfume of
sweet flowers. Who shall say how long the
goods deeds and Influence of these good
women shall last? No more appropriate,
expressive words can be found to answer
this query than the following gem taken
from the annual report of the president of
the Christian women's exchange of New
Orleans:
"Our heritage. When you are dead;
When some white lips have said
Their last good-by, and you are still,
Life's work complete, no more to will or do,
What will be found that you have left to
grow?
Springing where you have stepped to show
That you have lived? Marking the way
Across fair time, day after day.
We leave ourselves behind wherever we
have stepped.

observed that he was drunk. Albert Shore
and myself helped to put him In the hold
of the boat. About ten minutes later he
came on board. 1 had my back turned,
when I heard a splash in the water. I im-
mediately looked around and missed 'him,
ran to the side of the boat and saw de-
ceased in the water. He went down and
came up once. 1 ran to get comethlng to
help him out, but before 1 could get any-
thing he sank under the water. Someone
fished him out with a pair of oyster tongs.'

"A heritage to be kept.
As flowers or weeds which give them-
selves to die,
Tet are not dead indeed. What seeds lie
Shed out from the gardens of our hearts to
grow
For centuries? We sow
Ourselves. Just what we are will be pro-
duced in kind
For other lives to find,
And multiply—
Our influence can not die.
However we may pray and dream, mor-
tality
Sows only mortal germs. Our destiny
Is shaped In part by lives which long ago
Strolled down the sands of time. For weal
or woe
We live our humble lives nor see
Results, nor think to be
More than but passing shadows, while along
our way
We sow for immortality the livelong day."
In the beginning of the year we found our
business so rapidly Increasing we did not
hesitate to add to our monthly expenses by
securing the valuable services of a compe-
tent bookkeeper to take charge of our
books. The outlay has proven highly satis-
factory and below will be found an account
of our receipts and disbursements. An ex-
tra expenditure was the purchase of an-
other handsome show window and glass
cabinets wherein to exhibit our work to
more advantage and care for it more par-
ticularly.

We have toiled for a high standard: of
excellence In every department, and we
feel recompensed by the enooniums of our
patrons, and the enlarged demand that is
made on our exchange, not only here in
Houston, but In neighboring towns as well,
for so fine a reputation have our edibles
obtained that they are frequently shipped
away for supplying wedding feasts, etc.
Even our plain, humble little "yeast cakes"
are known and sent for from different
towns in the state, and go> to lighten the
cares of many a housewife.
And the mighty press, what can we say
in thankfulness that we have not already
said? 'Bhe Houston Post especially has al-
ways had Its choicest columns open to
further the interests of our exchange. We
fully recognize their generosity, and fbr
which we can scarcely find words express-
ive enougfh to show our appreciation, Yours
respectfully, MRS. JNO. F. DICKSON,

ROPE'S PASS.

Corpus Ohrlsti, Tex., Mirch1 12.—1The
ooimimititee appointed bo raise the bonus
for ithe opeining of Rope's jm-.s i.s still busily
ait work, and report up tu date a Little
aver $80,(100 in sljrh't. Th- re are many men
wtha opposed Rope's former ilenp water
scheme who heartily dm iors>> the present
one, and are giving it ali possible encour-
agement.
There are a number of rl ' >:\s from the
niontlh in the cltiy at pre .
The work of •beiautifyitr,'- Artesian square
is progressing favorably, and the city hias
recently had a large eteetiic light placed
In the cen ter of tlhe square.
There is a good deal of talk of having
a handsome new hotel built on the old
M'lrimar site. A representa:iv" of northern
cn-piitalists says he will have t hostelry to
cost not less than $50,Orn) erected thereon
If Che owners oif the site will donate the
ground. This a numibar of lliem express
a willingness to do.
When the Encyclopedia Brltannlca was
prepared no expense was spared in making
it the best that intellect could produce.
The board of editors was In Itself the most
august body of Intellects that ever as-
sociated themselves for the accomplishment
of a task, and could from tihelr own pens
•have given the world an encyclopedia
that would surpass any publication that
had then or has since been brought before
the public.
But recognizing the fact that the world
of thought Is led by specialists and that
no man excels In more than one or two
lines, whether scientific, historical of lit-
erary, and that no one nation could fur-
nish the best authorities in all lines of
thought and research—recognizing this
fact, all England, Europe and America
were, therefore, canvassed for the recog-
nized authorities on the various topics
treated. If the highest authority In a
particular line was not a user of English
nirt services were engaged nevertheless,
and his article translated into English.
In this manner the best talent was en-
gaged, regardless of the cost of such serv-
ices, over 1200 specialists contributing.
The result Is that the Encyclopedia Brlt-
annlca Is recognized as the supreme au-
thority to which appeal can be nvade.
The Insisting upon having the best In
every department greatly Increased the
cost of preparing the work. Before a type
was set or cut engraved $3,000,000 had been
expended for the editorial work alone,
as high as $10,0(10 having been paid for
a single article and $600 per page for writ-
ten matter.
Those not before conversant with 'file
method of producing the Encyclopedia Hrit-
ttnnlca will from tile above gain u better
idea of the great worth of the' library,,
which is now for a limited time offered
to News subscribers upon the easy pay-
ments of 10 cents a day.

KNOWLEDGE
Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet-
ter than others and eujoy life more, with
less expenditure, l>y more promptly
adapting the world's best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure_ liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas-
ant to the taste, the refreshing and trul y
beneficial properties of a perfect lax-
ative ; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid-
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak-
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug-
gists in 50c and $1 bottles, but it is man-
ufactured by the California Fig byrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,

accept any substitute if oilered.
