Many persons come 10 ~ and say
how is ii YOU BOYS will twist the rX-
pcn-cs of any retail grocer in Waco;
can, and do sell nearly every article
less than amy house in town. We
will tell YOU how it is done; We buy
from the packer, i'll California aud
Baltimore 100 cases OF canned fruit
vegetables, while Mr. Smith buys
from small Wholesale dealer five or
ten cases, paying him from 20 cents to
80 cents per cnsc profit We sell our
100 cases ont ut the price he has to
pay for his, while he is arguing mp
the superior quality claimed by the
wholesale man whom he bought ms
goods from, and they continue ON
handling old Wcll-known combina-
ton brands, which pay them "a big
profit. smoke this in your little
pipe until we write You again.
Most truly yours,

When explored the great Arabian
Desert between the Nileiand the Red sea,
Il had not rained for three years; and
when i Travelled over the suakim route
and through Kordoian no rain had tallen
for two wears. Between the 29th and the
10th degree oilattudeit never rains at all.
Mater becomes precious TO degree be-
yond the conception OF those who have
ysy y Known h scarcity. Members Of
the Catholic mission at II 0beid, where
water e much more plentiful. than IN the
deserts, assured me that, the summer Pc

When long droughts occur, the Always
scanty crop Of doura falls away IRON tne
Nile, and the greater part Of the hooks
and herds perish, as well as 9 considerable
part Of the population. II follows natlir-

through the desert, the paramount ques:

AS to the quality, desert water Is gener-
ally bad, the exception being when 1t Is
worse. though long custom enables the
Redouins TO drink water so brackisb as 10

and their Aocks. Well do / remember
