The Kansas City Sunday Sun

No other locality we know OF would
such an unworthy sheet to

ter of time until some of its dirty
publications will result in a fearful
tragedy and then, perhaps, it will

it usually finds a place in its col

To Be Popular in Society.

To converse we'll it is necessary
that you should have the art of
discovering what will interest the
person with whom you are talk
ing, and that you will know how
to drop the subject when it be-
comes tiresome, and never to let
a special fad of your own be the
one subject that you bring up.
Learn to be all things to all peo-
ple-to avoid personalities or very
decided opinions on any subject.
You don't want to give o TRADE
against dishonesty to a man whose
father died in state prison for iorg-
ing notes. You don't want to OBJ
ject to the divorce laws when the
man you are talking to may have
married q divorced woman. You
want to talk about bleached
hair to a woman whose hair is pro-
nouncedly yellow, nor to discuss
how injurious is rogue and powder
to the woman who is made up in a
most decided manner. In your
heart you may object to all these
things, but you are not giving ex-
preston just now to what you
think; you r simply making
yourself pleasant to some one
whom you have met to-day, and
may never meet again. Talk about
Egyptian mummi, 8 or French pol
ltics, how orchids grow, the last
new play or the last new song; but
use good English, speak AS if you
we're interested, and then you will
gain what you want-a reputation
of being a charming woman social

New YORK, June 24.-Mrs.
Della Cross, Of Brooklyn, is now
Mrs. Capt. Cross of the schooner

the Custom-house Naval Bureau

Mr.. Dunn is not an advocate of

Cross calmly appeared before him

oath as master and owner of the

WHILE the LEDGER does not
claim a mighty boom for Mexico,
it does know We are forging to the
front grandly in the way OF new
buildings and improvements and
we are quite certain the growth of
the city is parallel with the strides
of any other town in Missouri of
its size. By reference to an article
elsewhere in this paper it will be
seen that we have the figures to
sustain our assertion. The list is
incomplete, but enough is given to
show that Mexico is in a healthy
and prosperous condition. Good
building sites are nearly all oc-
cupied by fine, neat and substantial
dwellings and there is a constant
demand for more. This is no
exaggeration and certainly is
| encouraging.

Extension of Christianity,

In the year 1875, by the most
reliable estimate, the Protestant
population of Europe, the United
States, and the British colonies
numbered 81, 7OO,OO the Roman
Catholic population 80, 100, GOO, and
that of the Greek Church 10000
600. In 1885 the Protestant pop
ulation in the same area had in
creased to 1874, OO0, OOO-nearly
four fold; the Roman Catholic
stood at 16s, 900, 600, and that of
the Greek Church at 100000.
Adding to these Roman Catho-
lies those in Mexico, Brazil,
Peru, and the smaller South Amer.
leans States, their total numbers
throughout the world are set down
in 1885 at 205, OOO, 600; while, with
100000 Abysiniana, HISTORIANS,
Copts, ETC.. in Asia and Africa, the
three Christians sects of the world
aggregated, in that year, respec-
lively:
Professionals of all demonina-
Roman catholics Of ali sects .aO5 ,oOO, OoO
Greek Church, with many
divefsities 1884 GOO, 600
In connection with these figures
it is pertinently added: "Every
year Popery is losing ground. Her
population is unproductive and
unprogressive. There is a lack Of
enterprise and energy, while those
OF the Protestant and Greek
churches are multiplying and ad-
vancing on every hand, and taking
possession of the earth. Emigra-
ton is the feature and the forte of
the races which compose their
membership; and now that Europe
issa densely peopled, the emigrant
races viii ~ forces of the future.
Rome knows and feels this, and
her grand efforts are now put forth
TO corrupt the Professionalism of
Europe and America, and above
all. to win back the Saxon race"

there are people. Nine-tenths of
these dogs are of no account what
ever-scarcely worth the powder
and lead it would take to kill them.
In order to give the city Marshal

do, we suggest that the City Coun-
cii pass an ordinance requiring all
dogs within the city limits to be
muzzled or killed. A dog that is
not worth a muzzie ia not worth

Why Woman is Mans Best
Friend.

Why Woman Is Mans Best
Friend.
First and foremost, woman is
mans best friend:
Because she is his mother.
Second, because she is his wife.
Because she is patient with him
in illness, endures his fretfulness
and ''mothers" him.
Because she will stick to him
through good and evil report, and
always believe in him, if she loves
him.
Because without her he would be
rude, rough and ungodly.
Because she teaches him the
value of gentle words, of kindly
thought and of consideration.
Because she can, with him, en-.
dure pain quietly and meet JOY
gladly.
Because, on her breast, he Can
shed tears of repentance, and he il
never reminded of them afterwards
Because when he is behaving like
a fretful boy-and we all do, you
know, at times-with no reason in
the world for it, woman's soft word.
touch or glance will make him
ashamed of himself, as he ought
to be.
Because without her as an incen.
tive he would grow lazy there
would be no good work done, there
would be no noble books written,
there would be no beautiful pictures
painted, there would be no divine
strains of melody.
Because she made for us q beau.
tiful world in which we should be
proud to live, and contented to die.
Because-and this Is the best
reason of all-when the world had
reached an unenviable state oil
wickedness, the blessed task o,
bringing it a Savior for all mankind
was given to a woman, which was
Gods way of setting his seal Of
approval on her who is mother,
wife, daughter and sweetheart and,
therefore, mans best friend.
