There are some commercial rave;ers
who visit this city that are unworthy
the hospitality and patronage extended
them by our merchants. These fellows
wire the northern houses that we have
an epidemic here, dengue, and it would
not be safe to send drummers here
until after frost Our merchants
should spot such liars of the usually
faithful I. p. A. and give them the
marble heart and the cold cheek when
they come soliciting trade. There is
not healthier city in the country than
San Antonio is today. These fellows
are so scared at the idea of a little
harmless fever in the way of dengue
that they would rather die of the hard
colds up north than come within gun
shot of dengue case. These are the
bottle brigade and need weaving.

A modern law that will meet her adj

The more acute observers of Japan
methods and characteristics are in no
ways alarmed that these yankees of
the east, are going to make any SER
ious inroads upon our western trade.
They are represented by those who
have knowledge of their work as being
pre-eminently superficial, and absolute
ly unreliable as to workmanship and
material, deteriorating the quality Of
all their work under reduced prices 50
as to maintain the old profits. They
are sharp, but unreliable, so much 90
that they cannot come into COMPETE
ton for western trade without radical
changes.

DUTY OF PARENTS.
Wise Guidance Needed For the Youth Who
Is Leaving Childhood Behind.

Is Leaving Childhood Behind.
"There is something pathetic in the
struggle of the child to cast aside its
child nature and put on the nature Of
manhood and womanhood," writes Flor.
ence Hull Winterburn in The Woman
Home Companion. ''Ho is beset inter.
nally by misgivings even while he is
urged on by ambition. He wants he
scarce knows what, but something new
and never before possessed. Perhaps, id
a nutshell, the great desire of his soul
is to be left somewhat to himself, yet
with sympathy within call, and to be
trusted. 1t is a great evidence of tact
now for the mother or father to say,
with kind smile: DO what you think
best about this matter, my son. You
are old enough to judge what is right
Happy responsibility! Delightful conf
dence! Influence is never stronger than
when it withdraws slightly into the
background, leaving its object apparent
ly free. A good deal is said nowadays
"bout the extraordinary freedom our
children have. Seemingly it is so, bus
looking here and there an observer
notes little real change among the aver
age people.
ga young friend of mine who's,

If she had been less conscientious, a .

thoughtless and meaningless words of

this sullen attitude once sets in we may
say farewell to all confidential inter.
course between parent and child TO
avert such an evil we will do we'll to
apply all our powers of tact and kind
ness. Let us avoid arousing the spirit
of perverseness that stirs in every young
creature at this period of life, and, by
enlarging his opportunities for action
as his ambition extends, soothe any bud
ding revolutionary ideas and inspire in
him the trust and confidence in parental
benevolence that win be his safeguard
when he needs advice and assistance,
for youth never stands in deeper need
of wise guidance than at this time when
there is desire to dispense with it
But the guidance must be so wise, so
tactful, so gentle, that even the most
independent young soul will feel that
love, and not force, is the motive power
that draws him toward what is best,
and that he is restrained bynothing ex.

Culberson is likely to turn over the
affairs of the state to Sayers when
his term of office expires. This will
end the old law of succession through
the seat of the attorney general. The
state Democracy seem to have settled
on Savers for their governor some
time since and have not changed their
minds. The Republicans of the state
are not interested as a party. They do
not count.
