PEOPLE WILL TALK"

fon may go through this world, but it will be very

And people VIII talk.
II quiet and modest you'll have it presumed,
That your humble position is only assumed;
You're wolf in sleeps clothing, or else you're o.
fool.
But don't get excted-keep perfectly cool,
For people will talk
And then you show the least boldness of heart,
or a slight inclination to take your own part,
They will call you an upstart coneeited and vain.
but keep straight ahead-don't stop TO explain,
For people will talk
If threadbare your coat, od-fashioned your hat,
Some one will surely take notice of that,
And hint rather strong, you can't pay your way:
But don't get excited, whatever they say.
For people will talk
If you dress in the fashion, don't think to escape
For they critcise then in a different shape;
You're ahead of your means, or your tailor's nm

But mind your own business-there's naught TO be
made,
For people will talk
Now the best way to do is to do as you please.
For your mind fyou have one, will then be at ease;
you will meet with all sort of abuse:
But don't think to stop them-it amt any use
For people will talk.
A THOUGHT.
Hearts that are great beat never loud,
They muffie their music when they come;
They hurry away from the thronging crowd
With bended brows and lips half dumb.
And the world looks on and mutters-"Proud."
But when great hearts have passed away
Men gather in awe and kiss their shroud,
And in love they kneel around their clay.
Hearts that are great are always lone
They never will manifest their best;
Their greatest greatness is unknown
Earth knows a lttle-Cod the rest

ihe Dallas newspapers are getting
worked up into fever heat over alleged
determinations in freight rates against
Dallas. in favor of Fort Wcrih being
made by the Santa lfe. There may be
some ground for these charges, and
there may not be. A Gazette repre-
sentative made inquiry among the whole
sale merchants of this city, and they
unite IN saying that il any discrimination
is made IN their favor they are not aware
Of the fact, and they ought to know
II anyone. Santa Fe officials deny that
any discrimination is being made. they say
the merchants would know II they were
being favored aud that the whole matter
Is q TEMPEST In n teapot"
If there exists any discrimination II is
probably due to Fort Worth's superiority
as railway center, and to her better
geographical location.

It has been remarked that in addition
to her other personal attractions the in.
fanta is in possession of what the Frencl
call leger duvet, or, in plain English, the
down upon the upper lip. American
women, more particularly those whost
associations and observations have been
confined to their native land, have come
to look upon the leger duvet as some
thing unfeminine and unattractive. II
is rather n distinctive matter of pride
however, to the beauties of the Latin
nations. and is taken. moreover, as q
badge of strength of character and an
indication of self reliance without as.
sulning the coarser vigor Of masculinity.
When Rome was in its "most high

fined and cultured set affected not only
the down on the lip, but a hirsute growth
on the face. They resorted to artificial
means and smeared ointment over their
cheeks to stimulate the growth Of hair.
