NUDE FIGURE
Too Much For General superintend
ent Clarke of International.

Believing, it is said, that certain al
1egorical figures, undraped and sup
posed to represent Eternity, were not
sufficiently modest decorations for
the new International and Great
Northern passenger depot at San An
tonic, Horace Clarke, general super
intendent, has ordered that the fig
ures be chiseled off. Reports of the
order, which was issued at San Anto-
MO, have reached Houston and is the
subject of much good humored criti-
cism in local railroad circles.
The sculptured figures were just
over the main entrance to the depot.
They showed two recumbent female
forms, dressed in filmy robes, which
accentuated every curve. With clasp
ed hands and a frozen stare on their
faces they were supposed to stand
for the terenity of the new station
and the eternity of the International.
The sculptor was man of note, and
as, yet is said to be unaware that the
figures have been chiseled off by
order of the general superintendent.
Mr.. Clarke is credited with having
stated that he did not consider them

but it is a fact Palestine, like all
other towns and communities, has
plenty of business chances for money
The average man who has
carefully saved up his money until he
has accumulated a few hundred dol
lars, is in position to invest, but
usually he is so busy at his work each
day that he does not take the time to
look up investments which will make
his earnings help him earn. Such a
man often reads in the local paper
transfers of property where he knows
the investment is safe and profitable.
This opportunity is gone. The read
err was busy at his own work After
work hours he was too tired to go
out and look up bargain. The trade
was made before he knew it. That
man needs friend in the Real Estate
business who can help him at the
right time. Since | have been in the
Real Estate business | have handled
many trades for my patrons and rus
toners, involving many thousands of
dollars, and | have made money for
the people who have entrusted their
business to me- l wish to say that
there are fine opportunities right in
this town and county for investments,

Eyes and Other Eyes.

Birds sight is probably not any
keener than mans, in spite of the ira
dition to the contrary, writes DR.. Ed
ward A. Ayers in Harper's Magazine.
The simple fact is that birds flying
aloft are in clearer air, and their eyes
change focus much more rapidly. AS
for the eyes of fish, those in clear
water can focus farthest, and all fish
can see nearly everything but their
dorsal fms. The baby founder has a
special trick with his eyes, which is to
lift a submerged eye as he turns over
to the upper side, twisting his whole
skull in the doing. The eyes of a
goose are bigger than its brain. As
for man, he has one eye function ap-
pertaining exclusively to himself,
which is to weep.
