Southern Homes In rorna.

A great development is now going on in
the Coast Country of Texas, especially that
portion known as the "Diamond distrct.n
This is u section with Houston and Gal
weston at the north and south points of the
Diamond, the west side being bounded by
the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad and
the east side by Buffalo bayou, San Jacinto
bay and Galveston bay. Less than four
years ago this was great cow pasture, be-
ing one of the richest grazing countries on
the face of the globe. Only few isolated
small farms existed, but they were produc-
ing phenomenal results, not only with the
southern staples of corn, cotton, oats and
sugar, but more particul rly with early
fruits and vegetables In fact 1t was demon
strated beyond any doubt that the net rev.
enue produced yearly from ten or twenty
acres would equal and in many cases ex-
ceed that Of the ordinary quarter section in
the north. People of all trades and profess
sions in the north were attracted toward
south Texas by the successful result of the
JettieS Mt Galveston, which increased the
depth OF the water in that harbor to more
than twenty-seven feet, deep enough for the
largest vessels and the rapid advance of
mercialprosperity in both Houston and
Galveston. These people were not slow to
see the agricultural possibilities in the Dia-
mond district above referred to, and the re-
suits of the past four years, depressing as
they had been financially speaking, had been
astounding. Houston has doubled her popu-
lation, Galveston has done nearly as well,
and the intermediate country Is dotted
throughout the entire Diamond district with
hundreds of small farms in the highest state
of cultivation. Railroad and water facilities
are ample and reasonable, and the inhabi-
tants OF that district are within an hours
ride of the two largest as well as the Metro
politan cities of Texas. Within its borders
have grown the prosperous little cities Of
La Porte, Webster, Alvin, etc., which are
attracting the attention of the whole north.
The climatic and healthful conditions are all
tn 1t could be asked for, and it is expected
that within very few years it will be the
garden spot OF the United states.

Is the weapon with which sh,


world. Almost every woman believes that
she possesses at least some one attractive
feature and strives to make the most of that.
But mere regularity of feature is not the
most attractive form of beauty.
Mankind is more influenced by the bright
glowing vitality of perfect health, A classic
cast of countenance will not make n woman
attractive and captivating, If she is pale,
thin, weak and nervous, or has a pimply
complexion or unwholesome breath.
These complaints are due to imperfect
nutrition. The digestive and blood making
organs fail to extract the needed nourish-
ment from the food, and the liver is too slug
gish to cleanse the blood of bilious impuri-
ties. The entire constitution becomes weak
and poisoned.
The only perfect antidote for this state of
things is DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t gives power to the digestive and
nutritive organs to make an abundance of
pure, rich, highly vitalized blood, which
permeates the whole system with the sweet
ness of purity; the beauty of womanly vigor
and animation
1t creates solid, healthy flesh and natural
color; clears the complexion; dispels wrink-
les; rounds out the form and imbues the
whole physique with the irresistible natural
magnetism of perfect health.

of inspection he is liable to fine, but
not to imprisonment.
The most stringent penalty is for
any one planting lantana on the land
of another. Any person, so convicted,
is liable to a fine of $500, or, in default,
imprisonment with hard labor for five
years. But even if he pays his fine he
must be imprisoned for six months.
These are certainly Draconic meas
ures and reading between the lines
one sees that the people are poor, for
the money penalties are small while
the imprisonment penalty is severe.
Their land has been overrun with the
pest and their rulers are determined
to eradicate it.. 1t also shows that the
character of the people is mean, be-
cause it is shown that people will
plant lantana on other peoples proper
ty for the sake of destroying the value
of the land.
Some of the best lands of these
islands have been practically rendered
useless by lantana for purposes of pas
turage. The man who first introduced
it, The Star forgets his name, deserves
to be accursed. When it first began
to spread it might, by some such reg
ulations as those in Tonga, have been
eradicated. Now this cannot be done.
But if the land which is covered with
lantana is put into cultivation, it is at
once eradicated. The initial expense,
however, of clearing the land bears
very hardly on the cultivator. 1t is
the stock raiser that suffers most. He
has to keep gangs of men constantly
at work. Even then, the weed gets
ahead of him, and the writer knows of
fine fattening lands which have be-
come worthless, simply on account of
the lantana.
A paper to hand says that some one
has introduced the plant into Tahiti
within the last two or three months.
The Stars recommendation would be
to hang the introducer, whoever he is,
and burn the plants.

There is no doubt that the value If

they are far behind. That the Rus

The Island of Tonga is ahead of the
