THE FALUE OF GOODLOOKS.

LHE F3LCE OF q OOD LOUhO.
The tide Of prospectors is turned
Brownsvilleward and each dav new
faces are seen on our streets. The
people coming here now are of a
very desirable class. They are all
either wealthy themselves or rep
resent others who are wealthy and
who are seeking good investments.
With cities, as with individuals,
a good appearance is essential to
success. Brownsville needs to be
cleaned and made as attractive as
possible in order to catch the atten-
tion of her present class Of visitors.
The city is dirty, filthy, ugly and
forbldding in appearance, but only
from neglect. Naturally it is pleas
ant TO the eye and could be made
one Of the most attractive cities in
the United States, from physical
point of view
And it is worth while. If you
think it the better policy to smile
instead of frown when you smeet
some one else, then most decidedly
il would be better to present the
city in a smiling, gladstone aspect
TO strangers. 1t doesn't matter
whose fault it is that this city is
very disagreeably dirty and unat-
tractive. 1t is simply fact, that
is all.
No use to deny it; better ack-
nowledge it and then try to improve.
matters. It's filth can't be hid; it
must be removed. One wrong never
justifes another wrong. 1t is wrong
cruelty wrong-for a city OF such
natural attractiveness as Browns
vile to be shameiessly neglected
and the beauty lost to the stranger
simply by policy of civic careless
ness, indifference, lack of pride.
Who is to blame? As stated, it
MATTERS not But perhaps the citi-
zsns individually and collectively,
as well as the city authorities should
shoulder the blame. Anyway, let's
clean up. Let's put on our best
dress and wear our most pleasant
smiles. There is somebody coming
that we want to capture. Somebody
that We want to take into our lives
and into our neines and make them
one of us in spirit and in purpose.
But this somebody is rather care
full as to his associates. He belongs
to the Wide Wide World and We
must oe as fresh and charming in
physical appearance as nature will
allow US to win his favors-and ma
ture has been truly lavish in her
blessings on Brownsville and the
Brownsville country.

I wouldn't bank much upon the
want OF malarial mosquitoes. They
can be easily imported. Down to
the 80 or 60Hss the Sandwich Is
lands had no mosquitoes, but then
the little animal that sings, and |
bites made its appearance. Neither
do ! believe that malaria is solely |
given by mosquitoes. How about
chills and ferers, ETC.,
prevail there, and there are no mos
quitoes in that islel In my opinion,
the chief cause of our immunity to
malaria arises from another cause,
the prevalence of sand, and sandy
subsoils. This causes the land to
drain quickly, and thus leaves but
little stagnant water.

with His. He stands alone in His
unique personality. Could His age
and His environment produce such
an one? We answer no!
"He was also divine. His life. His
teaching, His works and His hold up
on the hearts of the people clearly
prove this. Other teachers have beer
for their age and their country, but
the teachings of Christ are OF uni
versal application.
I'VE all believe in His doctrine. for
we all acknowledge that the best peo-
pie are those who most nearly follow
the precepts of Christ. Many poor,
narrow souls do % understand that
the Christ came. not to condemn the
world, but that the world. through
Him. might be saved Note his ten
der words to the unfortunate. sinful
woman: and also His parable of the
publican and pharisee. But we NUS
not deceive ourselves at this point,
for He did not come to save us in
our sins. but from our sins.
Last of all, what do you think of
the Christly sacrifice? OF Calvary's
awful tragedy? OF such an exhibit
ton of infinite love? Just now. when
budding spring is falling into the lap
Of f%ull-blown summer. we should ask
the Lord to touch that spark of good
in us. so as to make it bloom in full

lit with the slide closed when he threw
IL on the seat. Perhaps II still burned
and could relieve the oppressive dark
ness If but for a short time. He
might at least satisfy his curiosity and
look upon the face of his companion.
Leaning forward. he fumbled among
the traps on the opposite seat.
II think I'll see If the lantern Is

a sharp exclamation. and two vigorous
hands grasped him by the shoulder,
Jerking him back unceremoniously.

little mystiied.

that" he said speculatively. There
was no response, and he sat silent for
some time. %regretting more and more
that ii was so dark.
Gradually he became conscious of a
strange. unaccountable presence In
that dark cab. He could feel a change
coming over him. He could not tell
why. but he was sure that some one
else was beside him. some one who was
not the soldier. Something soft and
delicate and sweet came into existence,
permeating the darkness with its un-
deniable presence. A queer power
seemed drawing him toward the other
end of the seat. The most delightful
sensations took possession OF him. His
heart futtered oddly. His head began
TO reel under the spell.
"WnO are your" he cried In a sort
| of ecstasy. There was no answer. He
remembered his match safe and with
trembling, eager fingers drew II from
the pocket of the coat he was wearing.
The next instant he was scratching a
match, but as Ii fiared the body OF his
companion was hurled against his and
a ruthless mouth blew out the feeble
blaze.
"Oh, why do you persistT' was cried
b. his ears.

cry of dismay the other occupant OF
