Of their peach trees are dying.
Grass very good, but they
have no water in the pastures,
except where the San Saba or
Colorado river runs through
the pastures. In some places
they are hauling drinking wat

The San Saba river is lower

creeks are offensive on account

Mans View
Of Marriage.
as MARIA GE A
FAILURE P"

II Is not uncommon for men to eewail the
fact that marriage so seldom means a real
companionship man and wife are
separated by difference of taste, of mental
outlook, of general interest in life. II Is
perhaps even more common to hear women
blamed for what is called breach ofcontract
in the marriage relation. If the wife be
delicate, rundown, nervous and irritable,
if her smile and her spirits have taken
fight It worries her husband as well as
herself Even worse symptoms may fol-
Iow-the woman suffers from sleeplessuess
and fainting spells, her head is in whirl,
her back aches, and she has that awful
crowding- down feeling in the abdomen. 1t
depends on the woman whether she will
permit these troubles to continue day by
day leading TO a life of misery.
Thousands have been cured by taking Or.

that even this avenue is closed.
Under an executive order issued over IA
wear ago all consular positions or when
the salaries, respectively, We're not less
than ST 200 nor more than S2,oOo, wheth-
er payable in fees or otherWlse, were pu'
in tine classified list.
II is provided in the order that these posi-
tions shall be filled in one Of three ways,
by promotion from one class and station to
another OF higher grade, by appointment
from among those already in the state
Department, or have been, whose expert
ence and qualifications are known To DE
such as VIII fit them for an acceptable dis
charge ofthe functions, or by eNdnllnatlOnor
applicants, selecting those who may be able
to exhibit proper capacity.
A board of examiners was by the same
order constituted of officials of the state
Depart mcnt. who are required To observe a
certain form in the ascertainment Of the
qualities ofa spirautsin all clseS whereselec-
tions are made from the outside.
Ii is in measure left to the Judgment
of the head uI U.e department whether
the places shall BE- filled from the ranks of
the office eligibleS or by either of the other
two methods, and it is believed to be not
unlikely, in view Of the great disparity be
tween the number Of applicants ana the
available plac IS tha If the Republican sec
retary will decide to draw the consuls from
the outside, but under existing conditions,
there is no escape from the competitive eX-
aminations.
Members do notfear that fourth-c!ass post
masters will be hived in the civil service
family They argue that The commission
will be unable TO create an eligible list for
positions uI which tn. great udtorJy pay
less than 500 per aunum each, and Il any
as low as SO and $l5. If this be impos
slble, they allegc, the project must iail,
since otherwise there would be a diStnC-
ton made which would prove diSOrganizer
of the system.
The filling of the postoffices through Con-
gressional influence is usralIy productive
OF trouble for the members on account OF
the strife among the home brethren, but
one Congressman has solved the trouble
In way which promises to relieve him
largely Of the responsibility. He has
notified present and prospective candidates
for tie pustoffice appointments in every
town in his district that the man who gets
his Endorsement must come to him with
the sIpport of the local county commit
tee and, as nearly as possible, the Con
grcssiOnal districtcommittee. He has made
pledges to no one, and has placed all on
an equal footing, in the hope that he can
avoid entanglenlents in TIE local squabbles-
