Work with a Short Thread.

Half the vexation of embroiderers
comes from using too long a thread. II
1t does not tangle hopelessly at the
most critical minute, it is sure to
rough up or grow thin and break in
the most maddening fashion.
1t is really very little more trouble
to work with. thread or silk correct
length. OF course it necessities more
frequent threading of needles, but If
ones eyes are too bad to perform this
operation quickly they are not in a
condition to do fine embroidery. III
loss OF time is the bugbear, infinitely
more is lost, as a rule, with knots and
breaks and tangles than in threading
an extra needle or two.
If skein of silk of cotton Is cut at
both ends the thread is about the
right length.

SEEMS ERA OF MAkesHrE1s.
After That with Germany, one Is
Promised with France.

According to an apparently official
dispatch from Washington II has been
decided not to send to France a COM
mission of tariff experts.
This decision was reached after
consideration of the material differ
ence that exists between the tariff
situation as TO France and as to Ger
many. In the case of France a COM
piete reciprocity treaty has been
drafted. but failed of approval by the
senate. The purpose of the tariff
commission sent to Germany was to
DO precisely what already had been
done for France. namely, arrange a
basis for treaty. In the view of the
state department the French status
has long passed that reached by Ger
many, so far as a tariff agreement is
concerned. AS the ultimate success
or any of these agreements rests with
the senate, ii is not perceived by the
officials how any light could be thrown
on the attitude of that body by send
ing a tariff commission to Paris"
SO the real purpose of the commits
sion sent to Germany was to arrange
basis for reciprocity. was it? Then
the present notification of an act of
congress is only intended as TEN.
porary makeshift, and worse is yet to
come, provided our gifted state de.
partment can force it through con
gress. AS 1t promises TO be a long
time before this can be accomplished.

What We Have To Say


We have entered into the real
estate business under the name of
the Brownsville Realty Company
and in doing SO we mean to treat
every customer in as honest, gen
tee1 manner as we know how. We
have gone into this to stay and feel
that no real success attends ones
business only that which is built
ND through honest, upright deal
ings. We will endeavor to keep a
good list of bargains as much so as
it possible to do and any one call
ing on us for investment or listing
their property will be advised as
to the best so far as we are cap
able of doing. What we want IS a
line of customers who are both
reasonable and fair in the listing
of property or purchasing. 1t Will
not be the policy of this firm in no
consideration to misrepresent or
exaggerate on any property left
with it for sale nor will it be the
policy of the firm to give any spe-
cial prominence to certain lists I'M
deserving and without merit just
simply for the purpose of putting
it ahead of others. We shall be
willing at all times to go and show
our list and let each purchaser see
for himself what he is doing be-
fore parting with his hard earned
dollars.
If you have bargains in eithe-
lands or town lots we should b'
glad to have you list the same a
once as we have quite a good lin'
of customers now waiting for in
vestments.
Our motto: Upright and fai
dealings with all. Satisfaction
guaranteed.
