Good looks are more than skin

liver be inactive you have Bilious

you have a Dyspeptic Look, and if
your kidneys be affected you have a
Punched Look. Secure good health
and you will have good looks. Electric

DIRECTORS MEETING
OF THE BOARD OF TRADE-E1EcT1oN
OF OFFICERS.
The Travis County Butchers Association
Heard in Reference to the Location
of National Abattoir in
Austin.

The meeting was called to order at
4:3O last evening. There were present
A. P,Wooldridge, r. j. Hill, John Orr,
}. M Borboughs and Peyton Brown.
A committee of the Travis County
Butchers association waited upon the
board in reference to Austin's doing
what she can to secure the location of
the great Strengthening and refrigera-
ting cattle establishment voted by
the National Butchers Association of
America to Texas. Mr.. w. J. john
son first spoke for the committee.
He stated that both Dallas and
Forth Worth are in the
field competing for this es-
Enlistment, and Austin must get
to work if she wants it. 1t is contem-
plated that the national association
will put up plant of 100000 value.
1t is understood that Dallas offers
$4,000 for this establishment, the
terms Of the offer being that no money
should be paid until the work of build
ing is done. Mr.. Johnson strongly
contended Austin was the best point
in the state for the purpose.
Capt. Dan Malven made one of his
usual ringing speeches favoring Aus
tin leaving nothing undOne to secure
the plant. 1t would employ 500 or
1000 men at the least, and be a Won
derful business stroke for Austin.
The dam will supply the fresh water,
so much of which is required, and
AustIn's central location in the state
shows that this is peculiarly the
proper point for it's location.
Mr.. Murray said he had attended
the session of the National Butchers
association at Pittsburg this year, and
he knew the association We're deter
mined to get the beef supply of the
country from under the control of the
Chicago great beef syndicates. He
had worked for Texas and especially
Austin at that convention, and he
thought if Austin would now take
hold of the matter she could get the
location of the national abattoir here.
The national committee to locare this
establishment are shortly to be in
Texas, and Austin must have her Offer
ready for their action.
The report of the proceedings of the
Dallas Board of Trade on this subject
was read. The committee stated they
would send a delegation to Dallas tC
invite the national committee to come
to Austin and look over the field.
This committee is composed of men
from Philadelphia and Detroit. A
cordial invitation was ordered sent tc
the committee at Dallas for them tc
visit Austin.

Want of Granite lnterferes With the Prog

For several days work at the dam
has been seriously retarded for the
lack of granite. When the railroad to
Burnet was widened enough material
was not on the ground to widen the
switch to the granite quarry, and for
over two weeks it has been impossible
for Mr.. Corrigan to ship granite to

1t was reported yesterday, however,
that everything was in order at the
quarry and cars were being loaded,
and they are expected here this morn
ing, when work will be resumed with
a large force of men.

When People Die.

1t has been shown by recent statistics
that women, as rule, live longer than
men; also that Hebrew women are the
longest-lived of any race. More male
children, too, die than female. Of sud-
den deaths there are about 100 women,
however, to 70 men. In Connecticut
many women have lived to be over 100
years old, while scores at the age Of 90
are found in every town in the State
In the State of New York the average
life of woman appears to be 4s. In
Maine the males outlive the females,
while In Massachusetts it is the reverse,
the average among women being SO.
while among men it Is but AZ. In New
Hampshire the men live the longest In
Vermont the men live on an average to
be 81, while the women average but 40.
The women of Rhode Island live longer
than the men, and so they do in Penn
sylvania. The average In New Jersey
for women Is about As, while for the men
it is 4s. In Delaware the women outlive
the men. The average duration of life
In Virginia among men Is 47, while that
among women Is 49, In the Southern
States there Is but little difference In the
average between the males and females,
but the men as a rule live longer than
the women. In the Western States the
men live on an average three years
longer than the women. The average
for both men and women In the North
west Is so years.

Decline ofNaturaI Gas.

Signs multiply that the decline OF
natural gas in Ohio is a fact to be reck-
oned with seriously. In Pennsylvania
and Indiana the same condition OF
things has been faced, but in Ohio the
hope has been INDUCED that the sup
ply would be more permanent. This is
not proving TO be the case, however, for
the pressure is slowly lessening, and to
a considerable extent the supply Of gas
has already teen cut off. A great deal
of money has been invested in natural
pas wells, much of which will no doubt
be lost. The revolution in the fuel
problem which natural gas gave prom.
ise of working can no longer be looked
for. But why should not artificial gas
be produced so cheaply that 1t can b'
used everywhere in the same manneI
as the natural gas has been in certain
favored localities?-New York Tribune
