TEXAS PRESS ASSOCIATION.
Concerning the Approaching Meeting
Brenham.
To Members of Texts Presi ^ssociati >n:
The arrangements have been
completed lor the twenty-first
annual meeting of the Texas
Press Association at Brenharo,
Texas, April 12,13and 14. Bren-
ham is preparing to give us royal
entertainment, and the pro3paets
are good for the largest meeting
ever held. The programme has
been arranged, and it promises
to be interesting and helpful.
The meeting will be followed by
an excursion to Galveston, Beau-
mont and Houston at the invita-
tion of these cities.
Members of the association
should apply direct to the rail-
road? for transportation to and
from Brenham in exchange for
advertising. The roads will ex-
pect you to use the mo3t direct
route into Brenham. That is, if
you live on the Houston and
Texas Central or its allied lines
or best connection by that route,
if on the Santa Fe or its best con-
necting lines use that route. The
roads would rather issue trans-
portation to those papers in which
advertising would best pay them.
Make application early enough to
secure transportation in time,
The excursion transportation will
be looked after by the officers of
the association. The hotel rates
at Brenham will be as follows:
Central and Exchange SI 50 a
day, Pennington and Union ho-
tels and Dixie restaurant $1 per
day. There will be ample hotel
accommodations, but to avoid
any confusion write in advance
and secure your rooms at Bren-
ham. Special hotel arrangements
on the excursion will be announc-
ed at the meeting. Do not allow
anything to interfere with your
attendance at Brenham nor keep
you from taking in the pleasure
jaunt following it.
All newspaper men in good
standing in the state are invited
to join the association at Bren-
ham. The initiation fee has been
reduced to $5, annual dues to SI.

President.

route to his Brazos county plan-
>n.
Dr. George Bruce Halstead,
profeesor of mathematics at the
State University, delivered an
address before the city teachers'
instittute Saturday afternoon.
The address was along the lines
of the progress made in educa-
tion during the past decade. The
speaker gave a word picture of
Japan showing the progress made
in the flowery kingdom as an il-
lustration of the point made. He
stated that this was essentially an
age of progress in the line of ed-
ucation, and concluded an ad-
dress lasting three-fourths of an
with a glowing tribute to the
women teachers of today.
Among the out of town at-
tendants were Prof. B. J. Hub-
bard, superintendant of the city
schools at Hempstead, and Prof.
Gannon, formerly of Brenham
but now located at Ledbetter.
At the teachers' meeting a
committee consisting of Miss
Wood of Lyons, Mr. Banks of
Kenney, Mrs. D. P. Perkins of
Chappell Hill, Prof. B. J. Hub-
bard, Hempstead, Prof. Gannon,
Ledbetter, Mr. C. C. Glenn, Sea-
ly, and Prof. Harris of Giddings,
was appointed to act in conjunc-
tion with a committee previously
appointed, consisting of Profs.
Tarrant and Urbantke, for the
purpose of deciding on a location
for the next summer normal and
to work up interest in the same.
Brenham and Giddings will be
contestants for the meeting. The
olaims of the latter place were
strongly urged by Prof. Gannon,
The meeting was presided over
by Prof. E. W. Tarrant, super-
intendent of the city schools. A
motion prevailed that Profs. Tar-
rant and Urbantke address a Ut-
ter to State Superintendent Ken-
dall and request that he meet
with the teachers on Saturday,
April 14, the time designated for
a report from the full committee
selected as above.

LIVING GRACE.
[wiuri*i« FOR THE SVNPAir BANNER.]
Oh! what if our pathway is dreary.
And cold with the storm and the sleet,
And we wander across !t aweary,
W ith its tears on our toiling fee-!
There is grace for the me<k ?nd the losly,
A grace that our Father will give—
A balm from the hands of the holy,
For the woundtd who suffer and live,
A grace that will comfort sud strengthen
When friendless ond lonely we lie
Where the glooms of Oethiemane lengihm
And l'ft up an agonized cry, '
For strerglb to endure on the morrow
The toil and the best of the way.
That leads op some rnour.tiin of scrrow,
Whtre feet of the wretched must straj!
1 ho' we wander with footttejs unwary,
Over pathways of sorrow ond
And fall with immaculate Mnry,
Bereft at the foot of the cross,
This grace will sustain through all trial*,
Our merciful Father shall »end,
And help us to meet Ills denial'.
With patience and faith to the end.
And whin we shail tTtmble and »h!ver,
At the ford where the death-bi'lows roll
This grace will "lead over the river"
To the beautiful' home of the soul."
—Mary Host Affi.kck.

Scrofula requires vigorous, persistent treatment. The blood must be brought back to a nealtny

other poisonous minerals usually given in such cases do more harm than good ; they ruin the digesuon
and leave the system in a worse condition than before. ,
S. S. S. is the only medicine that can reach deep-seated blood troubles like Scrofula. It goes down to the very roots of

Rev. Jas. Noble,
Rector.
your child has inherited any blood taint, don't wait for it to develop, but begin at once the use of S. S. S. It is a fine tonic and the
best blood purifier and blood builder known, as it contains no poisonous minerals. S. S. S. is pre-eminently a remedy for
children.
When my daughter was an infant she had a severe caseof Scrofula, for which she was under the coo-
lant care of physicians for more than two years. She was worse at the end of that time, however, and
we almost despaired of her life. A few bottles of Swift's Specific cured her completely, •» it seemed to
go direct to the cause of the trouble. X do not believe it has an equal for stubborn cases of blood diseases
which are beyond the power of other so-catted blood remedies. S. i. Brooks, Monticello, Ga.
Our medical department is in charge of experienced physicians who have made
Scrofula and other blood diseases a life study. Write them about your case, or any one
you are interested in. Your letter will receive prompt and careful attention. We make
no charge whatever for this. Address, THE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY. ATLANTA. OA.

The Rake-Off.
A once popular and successful ac-
tress whose figure and talents have
"gone back on her," to use an ex-
pressive phrase, reducing her in-
come from $1600 a week to $150;
helps to maintain her rather elabor-
ate establishment, Victor Smith
says, by means of a roulette wheel,
which her friends are expected to
"buck" when they call. Roulette,
as is well known, is the most disad-
vantageous of games for the player
even at .35 to 1, but the fair actrc3S
pays only 30 to 1. She is banker,
tailleur and assistant, and tells visit-
orS with charming naivette that "tho ,
house must win." Naturally it
does. The rakeoff pays rent, gas
bilU, servant hire and wine and
food bills. ___________
