When Nellie Grant-sweef, little, de-
mure Nellie Grant--was married to an
English dude with baseball head,
named Algernon Sartoris, nearly every
body in the country said, in view Of all
thav General Grant had done to save
the Union, that il was pity his daugh-
ter couldn't have fastened her affections
upon o thrifty young citizen Of the
United States. But the dear girls all
have a fancy for foreign swells, and SO
Nellie married the Sartoris. And now
the Sartoris has turned up as the lover
Of the charming Mrs. Bush, who has an
aged husband and who has large liquid
blue eyes and who dresses her hair in
wavelets. Great is the scandal, because
the Grants are conspicuous people and
the little Sartoris, who looks like an
English Jeemes Yellowplusb, has been
advertised. There is moral in ali
this which must not be lost. Perhaps
the Sartoris has done no worse than a
native American would have done If he
had married into the Grant family, but,
girls, you are all pretty and we think all
the world Of you, and we want this adj
vice 20 settle down deep ia your minds

the adyentprers Who come across the
water seeking wives. In nine cases out

then unless you are remarkably well ac-
quainted with the gentlemen who ask
your hands. 1t were better not 10 marry
at all and be newspaper reporter than
to marry foreign forsunc-hnntcr.

Concerning Kissing.

A famous Scotch divine used to give
thanks before and after kiss, and there
are portions Of the extreme north OF
Europe in which the kiss of the maiden
Of the house is the accredited seal Of
hospitality. She takes off your socks at
night and tucks you up with kiss, then
in the morning she comes in with the
sunbeams and wakes you with another
kiss. We forget II she puts on your
socks for you, but that is triiling mat
ter.
There are many kinds Of kisses in this
world. There is kiss with smack to
it that goes off like big torpedo or an
explosion of dynamite. but this sort Of
thing no gentleman would indulge in,
except for fun, when nobody is by.
The fine, old fashioned buss, pure and
simple, is for Maud Muller maidens and
bucolic youths. IL is not at all in ac-
cordance with the advice of the editor
and moralist of the Utah Osculator, who
says: ''Now then, girls, when you give a
boy kiss do 1t properly and heartily,
and don't let the sublimity of your feel.
ings make you ridiculous. Tha is good,
|sublimity is good, and mere faint flop
Of the lips is no kiss at all, though some
girls are not averse to putting you of
with it. But the kiss is barbarous
thing, fit only for the kitchef and the
back gate, and all this as the charity
boy said by mistake when he was asked
if he would 'reh ounce the world, the
flesh and the devil--all this we stead

reflections on Death.


The following lines are an extract
taken from letter recently written by
Colonel lngersoll from Long Beach to a
personal friend, who had suffered a
bereavement in the death OF his mother:
"After all, there is something tender

old. Nothing is more touching than
the death OF the young. the strong; but

the rainbow a thousand years after, or is il
the story OF Abraham and mis- servant girl, or
the story Of Onaw and his sister-in law, or
the story Of Lot and mis- daughters, or David
and Ura's wife, or Solomon with his 300

cratic Monarehcal system. The adoption Of
such noble aims and principles as the terms
Socialism and Communism imply, is entirely
out Of the question.
As above remarked, the prevailing individ-
ual property system has never had fair trial.
Indeed a fair trial is impossible, because the
necessary condition to such trial would re-
suit in Socialism. A fair trial thereof would
require that all persons be Intellectually and
socially equal, for are not all the inequalities
of fortune due to differences Of social and
educational advantages Therefore, 1t seems
to me that by the time such requisite eondi-
tons for fair trial Of the individual property
system could be attained people would be edu.
Gated enough to demand Socialism.
The object Of the above few lines on the
subject discussed mus, be apparent to even
the most casual reader There are so many,
even among our leading public men, who
wrongly interpret the meaning ofih terms in
question, and so much darkness between them
and the minds of our people that it now de-
wolves upon those who are competent to at
tempt its dispersion, and the proper means
are writing and public discussion. No vio-
lence should be used. 10 spite OF all obsta-
Giles, public opinion may be educated in favor
OF the best system. OF course, it requires
time, bnt such great changes as we suggested
must be slowly effected. Nothing permanent
could be accomplished by sudden change

HORROR



Socialism and Communism Defined and
Their Purposes Exposed.
Editor San Antonio Light:
Imagine the cold, icy feeling Of horror that
creeps all over the tihid readers body at the
appearance OF the terms Socialism and Com
munism, just as the royalty and aristocracy go
mad at the mere mention Of Democracy or
Republicanisui, so the illiberal and Bourbon
Democrat or Republican is seized with terror
when the Communism presents itself, de-
handing fair examination.
The writer is not Bourbon Of either of our
political parties, but is always ready to CO.
operate with either or both Of them when il is
for the common veal and deeming il the
duty Of every man to faithfully discharge the
duties Of citizenship and to give them prece-
denee over all others, excepting family affairs.
While 1t Is true that the citizen Of the
United States has every reason to congratu-
late himself on having the good fortune to
live under the most liberal and best form Of
government known to this or any previous
age, nevertheless he should not allow his bias
to blind him to the fact that with all its su.
