to an innocent little one, 1t says:

side. and thst great charm consists in the
inflnity Of ma es borne by each character

Our esteemed contemporary at the

vited to visit,this city. The News spoke
from its Wedge Of Galveston meth

charged Fort Worth with dishonest pur-

be considered "a joke" in some places to
rob or fleece or "skin" visitors, but 1t is
not so considered in Fort Worth, and the

never more apparent than in Its vile in.
situation which is now only "a joke"
