From our geological department we
will have on hand lead, copper, iron,
gold, silver and bismuth ores; fine
marbles, GRANTEES, onyx, sardonyx,
agate, limestone, red sandstone, for
building. We have the most beauti-
full and brilliant porphyries in the
world.
AS to soils we can show some of
the richest on the earth, including old
lake bottom and river bottom soils;
in Central Texas lignites, pottery and
fire clays, coal, lime, kaolin, cement
material.
We have over 200 different varieties
of wood, from oak and hickory down to
bois dare and ebony, the finest in the
world.
We have bat guano in Williamson
and other counties.
What is it we haven't got?
Texas can and should make the
finest display of any state at the fair,
because she is the grandest state of
the Union and the most prolific in
resources.
These facts are mentioned TO show
the Importance of the Houston con-
vention of Dec. 10, looking to the
proper representation of Texas at the
fair. Our State has reached magni-
tude that demands a suitable recogni-
ton at the great exposition, and to
accomplish that we must begin early.

Moisture in the House.

A pitcher filed with cold water and placed
In a room in summer will ''swestn-at least,
that is what it is commonly called The
pitcher does not sweat because it is not po-
rous and cannot sweat; but the cold water
inside of it chillS the outer surface, and, as
soon as the outer surface of the pitcher be-
comes cooler than the atmosphere in the
room, the moisture of the air Will be precipi-
tated upon the pitcher in drops.
This simple illustration should teach all
housewives to avoid suddenly opening rooms
in a house when the outside atmosphere is
warmer than the temperature Of the rooms
and full of moisture In all such cases the
wall paper, furniture, etc. being cooler than
the outside air, will speedily have the moist
urs Of the atmosphere precipitated upon
them. aud 1t viii require DAYS TO restore the
house TO the dry condition that is essential to
health.
There are no arbitrary freaks in the laws
which govern the atmosphere surrounding
us, and there Is nothing obJrusive In master
ing them. Warm, damp cir will ever pre-
cipitate Its moisture in houses and elsewhere
whenever it comes in contact with anything
chilled by cooler atmosphere, and that is
the whole story. The only thing to be added
is that, when people have thus ignorantlE or
negligently allowed their houses 20 become
damp, they should light fires and dry them
as promptly possible. nadelphia Times

WOuan's Hair.

How many black haired women do you
know? If you take the trouble to count, you
will find that, out Of ten women you meet,
nine will have blonde hair of some shade, and
the tenth will possess dark brown rather than
black. The tendency of the times seems to
be toward light haired women, and, by the
by, do not mean the ones whose hair is
made light by the use of peroxide Of hydro
gen. Scientists tell us that as nation grows
more civilized it's women grow more perfect
ly blonde, and students in the mysteries of
love say that blonde women are the most
affectionate wives and the least faithful.
This is the sort of thing that no man can find
out by personal experience, but it's rather in
teresting to know.
Curious contrasts are occasionally noted In
families, and none are more emphasized than
that between Mary Eastlake and her sister.
Miss Eastlake has a halo of the most exquisite
hair-blonde, without hint of yellow, just
such pure, perfect blonde as you occasionally
ses on babies, and which it is rare to find on
older heads. With this is the whitest OF skins
and great soft blue eyes that look at you as II
they were pleading for somebody all the time.
The younger sister has glossy hair SO dark it
might be called black, and great brown eyes
that look out at you as If questioning in pref
ty way what the New World held. The much
admired combination of black hair and blue
eyes is seldom seen nowadays, except among
the Irish beauties The woman with very red
hair, pale eyes and light brows and lashes, Is
the nearest approach that woman can make
to being ugly, for ugliness with women who
have any intelligence at all is not positive
quality.-New York Sun.

The Hawks Held the Fort.

We saw good many fish hawks through
the woods we traversed, and examined with
interest their rests of broken sticks Many
Jersey farmers hereabouts regard the fish
hawk with superstitous awe, and money Will
not tempt them to shoot a hawk. Near Cape
May court house, within a stones throw OF
the waters OF the bay, in stunted pine tree
top, is a fish hawks nest built in 1862 Sew
eral times either the male or female bird has
been killed by some adventurous gunner, but
the fittest surviving bird soon got himself an
other "craSt" anu another mate, and began
punctualiy in the spring restoring and re-
building the old nest, multiplying promptly
and replenishinS the brood of young hawks.
At Fishing creek one of these fish devour-
ers built its nest years ago in the chimney OF
a flshermans two story cabin Tie smoke
old not annoy the birds. young or old. But
the hawks were a nuisance to the family of
the jolly fisherman. Every device save a
loaded shotgun was used to get rid of The nest
and its owners. The fisherman was too super
sttious to XII the birds, and the unequal con-
test between the fisherman and the fish hawk
ended by the family deserving their cabin
home and the birds still rear and feed their
young in the old chimney top Of the deserted
cabin year b. year.-Foreau and Stream.

A Woman VINO Was Cool.

We are reminded of an incident that came
to our knowledge some years ago which
should show women that presence of mind
and the power OF self-control have saving
power where impulse and lack of courage
would have been certain destruction. We
may have written this before-we are not
sure-but it will bear repeating many times
if any viii profit by the lesson and learn to
practice seh-controi and similar presence of
mind in circumstances half as startling. in
would have cost life.
A lady OF wealth snd with the rich sur
reundings ami costly works OF art that wealth
brings was one evening alone. with only one

The Clothing of Babies.

Although 1 own that children are now
more sensibly clothed than was the case thirty
years ago, 1t is still common to see an infant,
who can take no exercise to warm himself,
wearing low necked, short sleeved, short
coated dress in the coolest weather. The two
parts Of the body-viz., the upper portion Of
the chest and the lower portion Of the abdo-
men-which it is most important to keep
from variations of temperature, are exposed,
and the child is rendered Liable to colds,
coughs and lung diseases on the one hand and
bowel complaint on the other. What little
there is of the dress is chiefly composed Of
open work and embroidery, 50 that there is
about as much warmth in it as IN wire
seve,' and the socks accompanying such a
dress are of cold white cotton, exposing a
cruel length of blue and red leg. can not see
the beauty of pair Of livfd blue legs, and
would much rather behold them comfortably
clad in pair of stockings. II the beauty lie in
the shape of the leg, that shape will be displayed
to as much advantage in a pair of stockings;
if it lie in the coloring of the flesh, beautiful
coloring will not be obtained by leaving the
leg bare; and, from the artistic point of view.
blue or red stocking is infinitely preferable
TO blue and red leg.-Jesas o. Waller in
Popular Science Monthly.

Rights OF 3 Chinese Husband.

E an article by Dr. Faber il Shanghai
periodical on the "Status OF Women in
China" he writes that the Chinese laws,
while they are intended throughout for the
defense of marriage as sacred institution,
are as one sided as all laws relating to wo-
men are in oriental countries. If a man beats
his wife, bat does not break her limbs or
main her, the law takes no notice of it; if s.
wife beats her husband. she is liable TO re-
ceive 100 blows and her husband may separ-
ate from her Those no have been shocked

provides that 'he who from poverty sells his
wife shall not be heavily punished; let the

A Fevnale Athlete.

That was lsdy to beware of that James
Payne tells of in The London Illustrated
News: miss Phoebe Boun, Of Natlock, never
made an exhibition of herself in any way,
but William Hutton, in one Of his tours,
speaks Of her with wonder as well as praise.
Her step, at 30, was very manly, and could
cover forty miles day She could lift a
hundred weight with each hand, and, with
the wind in her face, send her voice mile.
She could knit, cook and spin, but hated
them all with every accompaniment to the
female character except rnodesty.' II any
gentleman made a mistake as to this latter
attribute, she knocked him down. She could
hold the pillow, drive the team and thatch
the rick, but her chief avocation was break
ing in horses without saddle, at guinea q
week She was an excellent shot and great
reader; fond Of Shakespeare, and, doubtless,
also, Of the musical glasses, since she played
the bass viol in Natlock church"

In Queen Anne's time the dress Of tho fine
lady was elaborate When she exchanged her
mob, morning gown and handkerchief for
full dress and the park, she peared in .
laced bodice, worn open in fr ut over tight
stays, surmounted, after Addlson's renon-
strances, by the tucker of modesty. Her
sleeves were shortened so as b show the Lace
han, :ings, which fell to the wrist. Her apron
covered but tiny portion Of the rich bro
caded pettscoat, which was distended upon
the German hoop-a huge rotunda, such as
that which was brought into the spectators

the petticoats rose and revealed the bright
stockings of thread on silk, which terminated
in beautifully worked shoes of embroidered
satin or morocco leather. In nothing were

while there engaged that gentleman, who Is
one of the best posted mon on horses IN Texas,
In general conversation about the dlIerent
kinds and characters Of horses.
"a horse Is an intelligent animal general
lv.n said he, but, like some men, some horses
have but little brains; unless horse has
brains YOU can't teach him. Some horses,
like some men, are mean, anG they won't do

look at the br7ite's head, that rounding nose,
that tapering forehead and that broad, full
place between the eyes. You can't trust
him.
..Now look at that other animal in the stall
next to him. That's an awful good mare-as
