A ROSEBUD BY MY WALK.
A rosebud by my early walk
A flown a corn-Inclosed bawk
Bae gently bent Its thorny .talk.
All on a dewy morning.
Ere twice the shades 'o dawn are fled.
In a' Its crimson glory spread.
And drooping rich the dewy head.
It scents the early morning.
Within the bush! her covert nest
A little linnet fondly prest.
The dew sat chilly on her breast
Bae early In the morning.
Bhe soon shall see her tender brood.
The pride the pleasure o" the wood
Amang the fresh green leaves bedw'd
Awak the early morning.
80 thou dear bird young Jeany fair.
On trembling string or vocal air.
Shall sweetly pay the tender care
That tents thy early morning.
So thou sweet rosebud young and gay
Shalt beauteous blase upon the day.
And bless the parent's evening ray
That watch'd thy early morning.
Robert Burns.
I was talking with a friend the other day
when the subject of "recompense" was
brought up recompense for honesty and
uprlghteousness. He remarked: "It seems
as If their lsnt much to induce a man
to be honorable in his business when the
fellow who is crooked is tha1 one who
gets there." It does look like the public
encourage the crook. For instance sup-
pose a physician employes disreputable
methods to secure practice. Those meth-
ods are found out the community knows
that he can not be trusted as a man
yet they risk him as a doctor.
He will take a case and pretend to treat ft
honestly. The patient dies and he Is sim-
ply the victim of a mistake yet perhaps
that man was too unscrupulous to ac-
knowledge that he didn't know how to
diagnae the case.
In business you And the same things
you pay for an article and are given a
substitute yet because the store Is large
and well patronized you follow the cjowd.
Perhaps across the street Is a man who
is honest yet you would rather say: "I
buy at Blank's" than to have your friends
know you trade at a smaller store.
The man who sacrifices business to hon-
esty too often loses out while the grafter
makes money wins the confidence of the
people and lives a life of seeming pros-
perity and happiness.
We have no way of reading his heart
however and the chances are that he does
not rest as easily as the man who Is
conscientious in his dealings with his fellow-men.
We like to believe that it does pay to
be honest for if It did not this world
would be a sorry place in which to live.
The Most Healthful Country.
The most healthful countries in Europe
if the death rate be taken as an indica-
tion are Sweden and Norway say Dr.
Jules Courmont a Frenchman who was
sent on a mission to Scandinavia last
year and has now published his impres-
sions. Statistics collected by him Indi-
cate that the death rate in Sweden has
fallen to 14.3 a 1000 and In Norway to
13.5. In France the average mortality Is
20 to 1000.
Dr. Courmont attributes the happy
state of things In Norway and Sweden to
the hygienic customs of the people--a fine
system of public baths ana the perfect
hospital organization which deals In cases
of Infection precisely the same with rich
and poor.
What most pleased the Investigator
was the perfect discipline shown in both
countries In "the fight against preventable
diseases. Every person pays the greatest
respect to scientific and medical discov-
eries and every one from the public of-
ficials down to the humblest citizen has
a sense of duty. The Idea of Individual
liberty Is always subservient to the pub-
lic good.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
Skirts a Little Wider. .
While many narrow1 skirts are being
shown in Parts manufacturers are In most
instances making them wider than the
original models says the Dry Goods
Economist. They have found that In th.
majority of instances buyers prefer a skirt
that measures about 1 1-2 yards around
the bottom as they ran be cut to give the
narrow effect and still be practicable for
the average woman. Some of the high
class suits are made with skirts that are
somewhat narrower but even they are
wider than those being shown in Paris.
The slashed skirt is being carried out
in several different ways many showing
a simulated underskirt effect made of a
different material or of the same trim-
ming as on the collar and cuffs. A few
are slashed about ten Inches while others
are slashed but caught together with
straps and buttons which can be removed
If the wearer so desires.
New Embroideries for Blouses.
Embroidery takes a great many differ-
ent forms but there Is a marked prefer-
ence shown for the Bulgarian designs.
Often they are reproduced In their original
colors and on many gowns beads and silks
are combined but a very novel effect
Is obtained by embroidering the simple i

ered with the familiar geometrical form
but with pink and white threads used with
discretion and each of the figures Is out-
lined with a black thread. Cross stitch
also Is much employed and very dainty
blouses of marquisette are so embroid-
ered sometimes In plain color sometimes
In the Bulgarian effects. Beads continue
to be exceedingly smart and exceedingly
handsome and new and Interesting meth-
ods for applying them are constantly ap-
pearing. Ball fringe is extensively used
to finish tunics and In ways of the kind.

Is exceedingly brilliant and attractive.
Instead of the one-piece neglige held
in at the waist with a silk cord or rib-
bon many women delight In the semi-
fitting coats or tunics to wear with a
lovely skirt of muslin or silk. These
coats and skirts are made of the thinnest
stuffs many of the coats having a sheer
silk lining In white or colors while I
through others flesh tints show. As a"
rule the coats reach the knees and often
have deep slashes at the sides held to-
gether with ribbons or cord. The sleeves
are wide kimonos coming not quite to
the elbow.
Letters From the People
"A Little Fun with Rankin."
To The Post.
In yesterday morning's Post you had a
little "fun" at the expense of Dr. George
C. Rankin. But he who laughs last
laughs best. Dr. Rankin severed his con-
nection with Home and State over six
months ago. and has nothing to do either
with the business management or the
editorial department. He does not re-
ceive a dollar from the revenues of that
paper and Is in no wise responsible tor
any advertisements that appear In that
paper. Yours sincerely
W. F. Packard.
The same advertisement referred to By
"Facts" appeared In the Texas Christian
Advocate and Dr. Rankin's name ap-
pears at the masthead of that paper as
Its editor.
As to Home and State it may be that
as Mr. Packard asserts Dr. Rankin has
released immediate control of that paper
It being current report that his church
board Insisted he disengage himself from
a political publication but It is a well-
known fact that he writes many. If not
most of Its leading editorials. But
what's the difference? Whether it was
Rankin or some man like him who edits
and controls the fact remain that the
paper took the advertisement and there-
in Is furnished much food for thought in
view of the denunciation from that par-
ticular source of ether papers for print-
ing "whisky and .beer advertisements."

Window Shades for th. Auditorium.
To The Post.
Can not you persuade some enterprising
person to spring a surprise on this com-
munity by getting up a subscription to
buy awnings for the west" windows of the
City Auditorium? Tou should thereby
win the gratitude of the perspiring
masses who are In the habit of gathering
there for matinees thus endangering
their Jives by possible sunstroke.

faith. It will receive proper attention:
Hon. R. M. Johnston
Houston Texas.
Dear Sir: You are the Texas member
of the National democratic committee and
as such are among th. leader.. If not the
on. leader In Texas of our party. I have
followed you for years and regard The
Post over which you preside as the great
democratic newspaper of the South.
So much for the introduction. Now. as
it is certain that the XT sat Issue before
the country next year will be the tariff I
want to ask you a question. I see It
stated by the Dallas News the Houston
Chronicle and other paper that Senators
Baliey and Culberson are wide apart on
the tariff ana" that the democrat of
Texas will hive to make choice between
them. If this be true what shall we do?
What will you do In view of the fact that
you are devoted personally and politically
to both men? Would like to hear from
you through The Post. Very sincerely
yours A. H. Jameson.
The gentleman Is correct in hi. view
that the tariff will be the great and even
paramount issue in the presidential cam-
paign of next year and he is well within
his privilege as a oltlsen and member of
the democratic party in directing publlo
attention to the attitude of our repre-
sentatives In the congress.
I can . not better answer his direct ques:
tlons with regard to our senator than
by reproducing that portion of Senator
Culberon' announcement of his candi-
dacy against Senator Mills in 1S98 which
referred directly to th. doctrine of free
raw materials.
This announcement was dated January
1 1898 and was as follows:
"All Federal taxation whether in the
form of tariff or Import or otherwise
should be strictly limited to the necessi-
ties of a simple government economically
administered. On the tariff question I am
In principle a free trader as far as practi-
cal because among other reasons briefly
put such a polley m my judgment would
best subserve the Interest of the people
In that (1) It would tend to enable them
to buy In the cheapest and sell In the
dearest market of the world; (2) Indirect
taxation or tariff duty Is a tax on con-
sumption which wholly disregards equali-
ty of taxation and governmental benefits:
and (3) direct taxes In lieu of tariff
duties by fixing public attention upon
expenditures and taxation would force
a marked reduction of expenses and main
tain economy. As long however as we
may be compelled as under the present
constitution to support the government In
larKO measure by duty on Imports they
should lie laid for purposes of revenue
only first upon luxuries and last upon
necessaries of life.
"Thus limited and apportioned such du-
ties In the language of the National plat-
form of 1896 Bhould be so adjusted as
to operate equitably throughout the coun-
try and nut to discriminate between class
or section.
"This obviously refers to.the tariff upon
products of different classes and sections?

The International Sunday School Lesson
for June 25 Is a Quarterly Review.
(By William T. Ellis. I
To review a former study Is like visit-
ing a familiar city with the larger vision
of the traveler whose horizon has wid-
ened. The vaster reaches of the the'mes
studied are perceived In a review and
what relation each bears to all. There Is
no subject that so well repays repeated
study as the Bible; like Solomon's store
house it produces treasures new and
old. Of necessity the uniform series of
Sunday school lessons which are studied
around the world cover whole ranges of
history and moral teaching by a few se-
lected Incidents and passages. The pres-
ent year's work Is a aurvey of the history
of Israel and Judali. with brief KlimpBeg
into the prophecies which made the pe-
riod's Immortal contribution to literature.
Two Children of Old.
Of the twelve lessons the first the
third and the fourth give a very human
glimpse of two little children Oh widely
contrasted spheres the Hebrew slave
girl In Naaman's household and the boy
Joash on the throne of Judah. The great
Naaman was a leper but because a llttl.
girl In his household was true to her re-
ligious teachings he was brought Into
relations with Ellsha the prophet and
so was cured to the glory of Jehovah
and the service of Israel. The prf of
the two kiners the general and the proph-
et In the beautiful drama appeals leu to
to our Imagination than that borne by
the little Hebrew maiden an exile In
slavery from her own land. The truth
for today In the story Is that there are re-
ligious duties which even a child can ac-
complish and that the bearing of witness
to God In reverent opportune Ways
never falls to bear fruit for the kingdom
of heaven.
Like every boy but In a mere tem-
poral and technical sense Joash was born
heir to a kingdom. He was kept out of
his rights for a time even as many chil-
dren today are deprived of their inheri-
tance of Joy and education and opportun-
ity. Personal ambition and greed were
factor in human affairs of old as today;
only we are fain to believe they are less
unbridled than formerly and that virtue
and truth have a better chance. It was
religion that caroe to the help of Joash
in the person of the high priest and his
party and the kingdom got back Its
rightful ruler by a fine bit of strategy
that could well he copied In all reforms.
Instead of getting up a revolt against the
usurper the wise old Jehoida simply
crowned the rightful king a procedure
learned from David In the coronation of
Solomon. There Is no way so efficacious
for driving out the bad as to exalt the
good. Do not harp on the evil which In-
dividuals and society should not do; exalt
the good and make It beautiful. It Is
both good politics and good pedagogy to
"-crown Joash."
The boy so dramatically brought to the
throne Justified the hopes of hi friends.
He became a good kIuk. and his reign la
notable for the repair of the temple. He
had been brought up in its courts and
that kind of a boy is one to be counted
on for the future of religion l ne great
moral problems of the day are to be solv-
ed by men who had a definite moral
training In youth. The Sunday school Is
doing more than teach boys and girls
about the Bible; It Is training the future
friends and upholders of religion and
righteousness.
Two Sent Men.
Dramatic figures In these stormy times
of the Hebrews were Ellsha and Jonah.
Both were men of action. Other prophet
we shall study but they are men of great
words m users upon the eternal prob-
lem of religion. Ellsha was so Import-
ant a factor in his day that he was feareSJ
and pursued by a foreign king. He was
more feared by th. Syrians than waa the
king of Israel. So as no Syrian plot
prospered while Ellsha lived. It waa
planned to capture him at Do than. Now.

PRODUCTS FROM THE PEOPLE VIO-
LATES THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION
AS WELL AS THE FUNDAMENTAL
PRINCIPLES OF THB DEMOCRATIC
PARTY THAT TARIFF DUTY SHOULD
RK LEVIED AND COLLECTED FOR
THE PURPOSE OF REVENUE ONLT.' "
On February 11 188 Senator Bailey
(then member of the lower house) gav.
out a statement during the oourse of
which the following explicit word ap-
peared: "Senator Mills' letter announcing ht
candidacy for re-election to the senate
very distinctly raise the free raw mate-
rial Issue and as I consider his position
on that question at variance with aU th.
principles of the democratic party I shall
take an active part In the canvass and
support Governor Culberson. Of course.
Senator Mills will not be permitted to
subordinate the financial question to th.
tariff question but I am perfectly sure
that Governor Culberson will be mor
than ready to meet him on an Issue
which plainly stated. Is neither mor. nor
less than a proposition to tax. the tax
off everything which the manufactories
buy and leave a tax on everything they
sell. The opposition of the real demo-
crats of this country to that polley la not
due as has been so frequently asserted
to any sympathy with the doctrine of
protection either Incidental or direct but
Is due entirely to a belief that the manu-
facturers ought to be compelled to eon-
tribute their share toward the support
of the government the same as th. peo-
ple who must buy and consume their
goods."
In view of the foregoing there Is llttl.
left for me to say In answer to Mr.
Jameson's questions except that neither
of the senators has changed his view..
On the subject of free raw materials
as will plainly be noted they are abso-
lutely together.
It Is true that during the voting on th.
Payne-Aldrlch bill they differed as to a
few details Senator Bailey carrying the
Texas doctrine to a further extreme than
did Senator Culberson but upon the gen-
eral principle Involved there was and la
no material .differences between them.
They both stand against the pernicious
doctrine that everything the agricultural
and pastoral classes buy should be pro-
tected by a tax. while everything they sell
should meet the free trade competition of
the world.
That Is the doctrine now being preached
by Mr. Bryan and his immediate follow-
ers and certain men and newspaper are
subscribing to It not because they really
believe In It. but for the reason that Sen-
ator Bailey In on the other side. And If
Mr. Jameson will watch the game he
will find that the papers which he men-
tions and otliem. perhaps have an ex-
ceedingly slight foundation but a very
vicious motive in befogging the question
In the attempt to array our senators the
one against the other.
They are both big men big In charac-
ter. In ability and Influence and. If I
do not miss my guess the people of Texas
will keep them at Washington as long
as they live or care to remain In the pub-
lic service where I can In all truth My
to Mr. Jameson and other. they are now
working In perfect accord for the general
good of those whom they so ably and so
brilliantly represent.

ra
of attacking the Lord's anointed. It 1.
a business which has always had seri-
ous consequences in our own time there
is scant respect for the sacred calling
ns such; underpaid lampooned slandered
and looked down upon by the thought-
less the ministry Is yet God's chosen
means of making known his will to man-
kind. That teacher is doing good ser-
vice who Inspires In the minds of his
charges a respect for the gospel ministry;
and that minister Is In bad business who
docs aught to bring his sacred calling
into disrepute. On the side of God's
servants all the forces of the unseen world
are arrayed. The very stones of the
field are In league with him. So when
the city of Dothan was beleagued there
were other factors In the case than the
besieged prophet and the encircling Sy-
rian host. Ellsha knew this and waa
at peace. But his servant did not; he
Was a man of little faith. So Ellsha
prayed that the young man's eyes might
be opened to see the environing angels
of God. Faith Is a matter of eves; of
ability to see and rate at their true
value ttie spiritual verities If we could
see the forces In all the world that are
active In our behnlf we should never
witness that paradox a discouraged ser-
vant of God.
Tho other prophet who experienced
strong evidences of Jehovah's power was
Jonah whose dramatic story la one of
the gems of literature. He shirked a
hard Job because he had little faith. Sent
to Nln.vah he tried to run away forget-
ting what the psalmist had said about the
futility of trying to escape from the
presence of Jehovah. God has many
messengers to see that His will Is done
and while he showed Ellsha the angelic
hosts He accomplished His purpose In
the case of the runaway prophet by
means of a great fish. The end was that
Jonah went to Nineveh that great and
wicked city and learned that God can
do what He wills to do. The effect of
Jonah's message was miraculous: but so
la the effect of the preaching of the gos-
pel In all times. The experience of Nine-
veh Is duplicated on an Individual scale
every day In the year.
Prosperity and Peril.
The boy king Joash as he will al-
ways be called despite his later reign
had a good son Amazlah who wrought
wonder in extending the borders of the
kingdom of Judah. He went clear down
into the land of Edom and conquered the
wonderful rock city of Sela or Petra.
The next time you have an opportunity
to read an article or hear a lecture on
mysterious Petra do ao and remember
that Judah once ruled this stronghold.
Even better than Amazlah. at least for
the greater part of his reign was his
son Uzzlah who prepared his people for
war and promoted the arts of peace.
His spirit of the public welfare was
sound: but his success made him vain
He got to thinking too highly of I'xzlah.
iikp plenty or successful men today
he thought himself big enough to regard
religion and God patronizingly He so
far forgot himself as to attempt to enter
the holy place In the temple It la stir-
ring to consider that spectacle when the
brave priest so fearlessly rebuked the
king and pronounced the sentence of lep-
rosy upon him.
After all. a prophet is bigger than a
king. There Is no position on earth
higher than being the messenger of the
Most High. So we turn to a new char-
acter who enters the quarter's studies at
the seventh and eighth lessons. Isalan
the greatest of the Old Testament proph-
ets. He Illustrates the truth that the
man with a divine word Is king over all
kings; a curious poem by Rudyard Kip-
ling "The Last Rhyme of True Thomas."
carries the same message. Isaiah felt
hlmaelf unworthy for his great mission;
what truly great man ever did feel him-
self equal to his great task. A self-
sufficient preacher from abroad went to
New York a few year -ago but he has
lately retired confessing his failure
(though blaming it upon others) and
boasting to the end. It Is the man who
feels that his Hps are unclean and need-
ing the purifying fire of a coal from off
God' altar who shakes a nation to Its
center. So equipped Isaiah was able to
recall hi. nation to It peril and to ut-

An Early Peace Prophet.
The press of five continents Is ringing
with articles upon the subject of Inter-
national peace. That mean that they
are now after more then two thousand
years coming up to the level of a humble
Hebrew prophet who tuned his lyre to
these majestlo strains amid the pleasant
hills and fields of Palestine. His utter-
ances have undoubtedly had a part In
thcVhanged mind of the world which the
day's press echoes. There Is an eternal
contemporaneousness of truth and It is
refreshing to see the modern prophet
comlnt up to the level of those of the
Old Testament. The truth Is that this
old Bible is the most up-to-date book In
all the realm of morals and ethic and
philosophy. The Sunday school member
are the real progressives in studying it.
The tribute which the I.ondon Times paid
to It on the occasion of the tercentenary
of the King James version was sympto-
matic of the oest thought of th time.
It is significant that in most of the mod-
ern utterances upon peace w. find th.
words of this old Prophet Mlcah being
quoted.
Before there can be peaoe thr must
be forgiveness. That applies a well to
International politics as to the Individual's
heart. Aibltration will fall If old grudges
are to be cherished In all their bitter-
ness. A measure of giving way over-
looking and forgiveness will have to be
practiced by the nations ere universal
peace can be assured. And that I. the
message of Hosea on which the tenth
lesson of the quarter dwelt.
Like King and Like Peopl.
The history of any country shows only
a few really great kings. We remem-
ber only a few outstanding names In the
long roll of England's rulers. So with
Israel and Judah. But Hesekiah Is one
of these. II had kingly qualities and
we shall see more of him ere many days.
But In this connection he Illustrate the
vital truth that religion la necessary to
national cohesion. Revival precedes re-
form. To Influence a people profoundly.
It Is necessary to go down to the springs
of life which are religious. He sum-
moned his people Inviting also the
Northern kingdom to a great Passover.
To return to God was to return to all
that was best In their own history snd
their own natures. There Is no lofty
ethical or philosophical exhortation cur-
rent that has moro of truth and practi-
cability In It than the pungttlt revival
motto. "Get right with God.
The trouble with Israel was that both
kings and people. In the main had been
at enmity with Jehovah. Led astray by
Jeroboam "who made Israel to sin" they
sought to follow the popular faahlons of
the nations around them. Instead of the
peculiar destiny prescribed by Ood and
ao In the last lesson of the quarter we
find them wiped out as a nation. Their
candlestick was removed from among the
nations. All the hopes and organisation
and royal line had perished. The cruel lot
of captives of ruthless Assyria was theirs
alike for tender women and children as
well as for brave men. What a commen-
tary upon the proverb "There' Is a way
that seemeth right unto man but the ends
thereof are the way. of death." To de-
part from Ood Is to depart from life.

the ground that he waa given a sentence
