great stock ranges of the southwest.
Colorado is rich. Its money will seek in
vestment in Texas rather than In the east.
Practically, the mineral resources OF the
Centennial state are inexhsustible. Texas
now has direct connection with the money
producing center Of the world. 20
The completion of the Fort Worth and
Denver means the development Of the
Panhandle, which is destined to be the
granary Of the southwest. To say that
II Texas will share the benefits of such
development Is to put the case mildly.
The grain production Of the Panhandle
will In time equal that Of any similar
amount Of territory in the northwest
and is bound to cut an important figure
in the food supply Of this and other
countries.
fwo such states as Texas and Colorado
united in manufacturing and trade need
not fear the whole world combined,
They produce nearly everything they
need, and the Fort Worth and Denver
furnishes expeditions and convenient
means for the exchange OF commodities
Texas and Colorado are thus in very good
fix, thanks to the railroad builders

Origin of Artesian Wells.

The sedimentary rocks, in their grea'
thickness, incloses a succession of water
sheets or water levels, occupying dis
tinct stages, and extending with uniform
characters under whole countries, like
tbs stratE TO which they are subordinated
II is proper to remark here tina. by the
term water sheet is not meant q
real bed Of water, lodged in cavity
between solid masses that serve as walls
to 1t, but water filing the minute inter
stices or the cracks of rock. Continu-
Gus and regular in sand, those sheets
are usually discontinuous and irregular
in limestones and sandstones, in which
the water only occupies more or less
spacious fssures. When natL raj issues are
wanting, human Industry is able, by boring
to make openings down to the subterrs-
mean waters, which it CAUSES to Jet up to
the svrfsce, and sometimes TO consid-
cradle height above. The thought OF IN
dertskipg such works is very sncient
one. The Egyptians had recourse to
the forty centuries ago; they were ex-
ecuted in France in 1925, st Artois,
whence the name of artesian wells has
been given them.
The water levels of the cretacecus
straits, from which the French Artesisn
waters issue, are not always of advsnt-
age; but in the north Of France and In
Belgium they constitute the most formi-
dnble obstacles which miners have to en-
counter in reaching the coal.beds.
A striking confirmation Of the theory OF
the source Of supply Of the 8rtesiAn
waters has been observed at Tours,
where the water, spouting with great
velocity from well ITO meters in depth,
brings up, together with the sand, fresh
water shells and seeds, in such 8
state of preservation as TO show that they.
could not have been more than three OF
four months on their voyage. Some of
the wells Of the Wady Rir have also
elected fresh-wster mollusks, fish and
crabs, still living, which must, therefore,
have made still more rapid transit.

Another Great Inlet.

The completion of the Fort Worth and
Denver, the last spike upon which was
driven last Thursday afternoon, affords
another crest inlet into Texas from the
great northwest which wit speedily be
taken advantage Of. The Fort is already
pluEipg herself upon the chesp Colorado
cosl which she can put upon the markets
Of North Texas, but with the completion
of Denison's two roads to the coal fields
OF the Nation the Fort will soon re
ceive 8 practical lesson which will
teach her the difference between
the long-hsul and the short-haul as
affecting the price of any commodity
which comes into the state by rail. There
is one gratifying instance, however, which
is cited to show the energy and enterprise
displayed In Texas IS compared with that
of Colorado. Note the figUres: The con-
Dection was made at point 523 miles

"Any woman may be interesting, sc

"The fascinating woman always be-
longs to another man. II you get her, hel
fascination takes wings"
"a man Of the world Is at home every

"a well regulated club is the acme OF

"Men enjoy clubs exceedingly because

! That Is false love which does not in
clude friendship, but is the love which
the mass Of men feel and the mass Of
women inspire.
True love, love CT the highest kind, con-
trims the elements Of friendship, Infused
with sexuality; friendship is sexless:
therefore, serene and stable, and compre-
nends the comforts Of love without its
passion. Many men are incapable of
friendship; but the lowest and the basest
thinY themselves capable of love.
Companlonship is, above all, voluntary,
unrestrained, obeying the law OF temper
ament and the ferver Of individuality.
Men, in.their relations to women, are

sacrifice everything in their effort to be
agreeable, hide nature and pervert truth
with this intent. There is no chance fer
compsnionship between them; it cannot
breathe in so artificial an atmosphere.
Men alter their language to suit women.

PanionshIp could be laid in such society
the superstructure could not be reared;
the opportunity would be lacking, and
the commencement would remain as q
sign OF fsilure-as warning to proceed
no further.
As has been said, men and women have
been and are companions, but they are of
the elect. Still, the offer examples and
disclose what may be done. In our own
country women are freer, more respected,
more hon sred, more nearly mems part

evidence Of high civil zition. Compan-
ionship will Increase her as the sexes ad-
